Description

Look Outside is a survival horror RPG set in a single apartment building. A mysterious event turns anyone who looks out the window into grotesque monsters, leaving the world in absolute chaos. Scavenge the building to seek food, supplies, and weapons while encountering strange characters - human and otherwise.

Survival Horror & Resource Management

Plan tense expeditions outside your apartment as you fend off grotesque monsters dwelling in and around your building. Return to your home with gathered resources and partial answers to your questions to recuperate by playing games, making dinner, crafting tools, and getting to know your neighbors turned allies.

Inventive Turn-Based Combat

Clash with over 150 hand-crafted creatures in turn-based combat that accounts for space between you and your foes as you wield makeshift weapons and items you've gathered in the corridors of the building.

Impeccable Body Horror Aesthetic

Meet your macabre fate in a bizarre world teeming with an unconventional and occasionally psychotic cast of characters - some of which you can recruit and offer safe harbor in your apartment as the mystery unravels.

Small, Experimental, and Unwaveringly Weird

Offering 10 - 12 hours of playtime with a dozen boss encounters, friends to recruit, and visitors to invite back to your home, Look Outside offers different experiences for every player on their way to uncover several different endings.

one of the best turn-based RPGs - and maybe RPGs in general - that I've played in the last 10 years. it's also an incredibly effective lovecraftian horror story on top of that. everything here feels extremely

A game with the Lovecraftian tag that actually deserves it! This is real cosmic horror at its finest, and I absolutely loved every minute of it. It often seems like the majority of games with this tag were made by

What a weird game. This has such stunning and detailed pixel art, yet most of the time there isn't something pleasing to look at with that well made art. (Hellen is an exception) I like the "Final True Ending" A lot and

Easily one of the best RPG's I've played in the last couple years. The Atmosphere? 10/10, fabulously spooky and terrifying at the beginning. It manages to get me spooked through a good chunk of it. I will admit as you
