Prepare to explore oppressive rooms and solve environmental puzzles in a game where your only weapons are your wits and your ears. But with a mixed reception from PC players, the big question is: can this console version win over a new audience?
From a “Mixed” PC Reception to a New Console Home
While today marks its debut on console, Stay Still first launched on Steam back in 2023. In that time, it has garnered a “Mixed” review score from the PC community.
Now, with its arrival on the Xbox platform, a whole new audience has the chance to step into this haunted house and form their own opinion on this divisive horror experience.
Run, Hide, and Sharpen Your Ears
There is no combat in Stay Still. If you want to live to tell the tale, you will need to run and hide from the spirits that stalk the halls. The game features meticulous sound design, and sharpening your ears to listen for your pursuers is the key to survival.
This is a game of investigation and puzzle-solving. You will need to explore the oppressive rooms of the house, watching your surroundings, connecting clues, and solving environmental puzzles to open new paths and progress through the disturbing story.
In Stay Still, you play as Nam, who finds himself trapped in a mysterious house. He soon discovers that the home is scarred by a brutal crime that took place in 2008, and the spirits of the past are not resting peacefully. You must survive long enough to unearth the house’s dark secret.
