The Remains of Dahlia

The Remains of Dahlia is a short, first-person psychological horror game centered on the slow and unsettling investigation into the disappearance of a woman named Dahlia. The player assumes the role of her husband, who, having received no answers from the official investigation, returns to an empty house filled with traces of a past life. The space appears mundane, but every room conceals hints of something far more sinister.

The House That Keeps Silence

The investigation unfolds in a small suburban house and its surroundings, where attention to detail becomes key to understanding what happened. Everyday objects, notes, and furnishings form a fragmented picture of the past, casting doubt on simple explanations. The camera records the events in the style of old video footage, enhancing the documentary feel and creating distance between the player and the events.

The investigation gradually evolves into a psychological immersion, where the line between facts and interpretations begins to blur. The story is told through the environment, leaving room for conjecture and personal conclusions. The lack of direct answers heightens the anxiety, and the ending emphasizes themes of loss, guilt, and the impossibility of fully restoring the truth.
