ABOUT THIS GAME

Is Your Home Safe? Call Home Safety Hotline

In Home Safety Hotline, players step into the quirky role of a telephone operator answering calls from people worried about the safety of their homes. The game blends analog horror elements with a telephone operator simulator, creating an atmosphere that’s both eerie and captivating. As you answer inquiries, you’ll delve into the world of household pests and other potential hazards lurking just out of sight.

Telephone Operator Simulator with a Twist

This game is structured around responding to a variety of incoming calls. Each caller presents a new challenge, asking for advice on potential threats in their homes. Players consult a comprehensive catalog that includes plentiful knowledge about common pests and household hazards. Your ability to connect the dots can lead to eerie revelations about what might be hiding in the corners of these homes.

Navigating the 90's Nostalgia

The design aesthetics of Home Safety Hotline embrace the charm of 90's technology. Expect vintage computer sounds and retro visuals to enhance the eerie experience as you answer calls. This backdrop adds depth to the narrative, invoking an unshakable sense of dread as you try to help your callers. Each element, from the interface to the sound design, pulls you deeper into the atmosphere Nick Lives has crafted.

Jazzy Lo-Fi Soundtrack Sets the Mood

Accompanying your operator duties is an original jazzy lo-fi soundtrack composed by David Johnsen. The soothing yet unsettling music adds layers to the gameplay, providing ambiance while you place callers on hold or sift through safety information. This uniqueness helps elevate the tension, making every second on the line feel impactful as you juggle numerous concerns about home safety.

Consequences Await for Inaccurate Deductions

Your decisions have real-world consequences. Provide accurate advice, and you may save a caller from an impending disaster; however, a wrong guess could leave them in peril. The pressure mounts as you navigate conversations about spider infestations or questionable noises from the attic, making every call a test of your knowledge and judgment in the macabre realm of household safety.

Understand and Conquer Fears through Accessibility

As part of its commitment to inclusivity, Home Safety Hotline includes "Phobia Toggles" to help those who may be sensitive to certain visuals. Players can disable images that trigger common phobias like arachnophobia, making the experience more accessible without sacrificing the game’s unsettling tone. This feature showcases a thoughtful design philosophy, ensuring horror remains engaging, not overwhelming.
