Shelter from the Storm is a short mystery puzzle game where you explore a creepy mansion during a thunderstorm. Made by Home Groan Games. You play as a traveler who ducks into an empty-looking house to get out of the rain, only to find strange puzzles and hidden clues inside. The game uses simple retro-style pixel graphics, like older computer games, and focuses on problem-solving—like figuring out codes or using objects you find to unlock new rooms.
Unlike complicated puzzle games, this one cuts out the guesswork: if you click on a locked door and already have a key in your inventory, the game automatically uses it. The story takes about 30 minutes to finish, making it easy to complete in one sitting. While the mood is mostly serious, there are lighthearted moments sprinkled in, like sarcastic notes left by the developers. For adults looking for a straightforward, nostalgic puzzle experience without time pressure, this bite-sized adventure balances simplicity with just enough challenge. Just have a fun time!
