Apartment 28

APARTMENT 28

*A horror-puzzle game with strange machines, eastern European architecture and of course... pigeons.*

---

Hi again, everyone!

We're back for another game jam! This time, this time with a *horror* game (and as always, pigeons)!!!

Welcome to Apartment 28.

THE STORY

You're a repairman who can fix just about any machine. You're also a bit of a hermit, spending most of your time in your apartment, surrounded by clutter and your own version of *organised chaos*.

Your friend Radu has been trying to get you to go outside more, but luckily for you, your office is right inside your apartment. Why leave when everything you need is already at home? (me for real)

Until one evening, something strange happens.

A mysterious package arrives at your door, accompanied by a note:

> *"Fix it. I will collect it at 4 in the morning."*

An odd request. Quite rude, too, if you ask me.

Inside the box, you find an old telephone.

And that's when things start to take a turn...

---

WHAT TO EXPECT

Your goal is simple: fix the telephone.

How difficult could that possibly be?

- Explore your apartment : Search through the clutter and uncover the machine parts you need.
- Solve puzzles : Figure out how to repair the mysterious telephone.
- Meet the neighbours : Talk to your friends, neighbours, and... some other *entities*.
- Stay away from the shadows : Whatever keeps knocking on your door, it's probably best not to let it in.
- Feed the pigeons! : Don't forget to collect some grains and take care of your feathered visitors at the window, this is a must!

WAAAAAH THE GRAPHICS ARE SO COOL

Really atmospheric game: the apartment feels alive and unsettling, and the telephone adds tension. I liked the mix of horror, puzzles, and even pigeons — such a unique touch

An atmospheric game. the visuals evoke specific emotions, well done!

yarakdemir20 Oct 2026, 12:56

the graphics are cool and the theme is really cool. I love nervous games a lot. And with the art I really felt the spooky feeling. I would love to play this if this was computer game. But I think movement and camera style was making it difficult to play a bit

Really cool entry! I loved the concept and the overall mood you’ve created here. The controls felt responsive and the gameplay was super engaging for a jam project. Left full ratings!
If you have a few minutes, we’d love for you to check out our game Meow Bomb! 🐱💣 The official LD page has our jam release, but I also assembled an alternative updated build with fixes and a working PC: https://naiper.itch.io/meow-bomb-by-naiper

Cheers!

I wasn't really sure what to do but it looks awesome! It was a bit annoying that the camera angle changed within the room itself but the vibes are great! I loved walking around and checking the messages on the old phone and pc

Dang this is so impressive!! I played through the whole thing and got Ending A: Collected. It was creepy yet also somehow super chill, I liked the general lack of time pressure and the spooky ambience. Really great work. I got stuck at a couple of points, the biggest one being that it took me ages to find the pliers. But other than that I absolutely loved it.

@kristinamay Thank you so much for playing our game! We are really happy to hear that you finished it! We also just put a warning on the itch page about them being hard to find, thank you for letting us know!

Pigeonic20 Oct 2026, 17:53

@iris3dart Thank you!! We really liked the idea of fixed cameras like in the original Resident Evil games, but this is our first time trying it out. The feedback really helped!

Pigeonic20 Oct 2026, 17:57

@corruptde @1ncors @kwuwky @nursultan Thank you so much for playing, we wanted the game to have an old horror game type of feel, glad you enjoyed it!

Pigeonic20 Oct 2026, 18:02

@yarakdemir Thank you so much for playing it and we're really glad that people liked the art, we really appreciate it! Could you clarify what you meant by "if it was a computer game"? The game as it is now is playable on pc on browser or to download. We didn't manage to make it work on other platforms as well yet.

I didn't find the screwdriver but... Very spooky atmosphere. Love the old change of camera in each room.

Nicely done!

Tomtomgome20 Oct 2026, 19:28

Well... Call me stupid, because I could not find that damn screwdriver... (At least I fed the pigeon)

I'll leave out ratings for overall, and fun for now, but I think it is all very well put together. I really felt like it is a finished product. The original resident evil feel is very present.

youpz20 Oct 2026, 22:37

Those apartment blocks outside the window feel very familar. A phone with a 4 AM deadline is creepy enough, then you have those figures staring up from the courtyard. Also glad the pigeons made it in.

Rated! Would appreciate you checking out our entry too if you have time: Robot Workshop.

Hi, yeah the placement of the screwdriver is not great (and not that intended, I blame on the scope creep and rushing to finish the game:) ). Here is an image of where you can find it so people don't get stuck there anymore.

The combination of fixing strange machinery in that Eastern European apartment is such a cool juxtaposition. I particularly love the inclusion of the pigeons, which adds a genuinely unique and unexpected touch to the horror atmosphere!

Tunasandwich21 Oct 2026, 10:28

Nice atmosphere indeed, well done :) I had a bit of trouble navigating around, but almost got to the end nonetheless ! Just couldn't figure out what I was supposed to dial at the end.
