About DEDA
DEDA delivers a familiar horror‑escape experience that challenges players with three distinct difficulty levels. Each level alters the house’s atmosphere, from subtle hints on Light to oppressive walls and strange shadows on Normal, and finally a hostile, frightening environment where even lantern light can turn dangerous on High.
The game requires two‑handed interaction, moving beyond simple taps to more dynamic, stealth‑like actions. Story details are hidden in the environment, encouraging players to piece together family history, madness, and the house’s secrets through careful observation and theory building.
01 / THE GUIDE
Difficulty and Atmosphere
The Light difficulty offers a barely noticeable sense that something is wrong, providing a milder experience. Normal difficulty changes lighting, presses walls inward, and introduces strange shadows, creating a more unsettling mood. On High difficulty the house reveals its true essence; the atmosphere becomes frightening and hostile, and even the lantern’s light can become dangerous, intensifying tension.
- Observe how lighting shifts between difficulties to gauge the level’s mood.
- Notice wall behavior and shadow changes as clues to increasing tension.
02 / THE GUIDE
Two‑Handed Interaction
Players must use both hands to perform actions, moving away from monotonous tapping. This requirement encourages searching for new ways to interact with objects, adding a layer of physical engagement. The mechanic makes problem‑solving feel more dynamic and comparable to stealth gameplay, as players must coordinate both hands for successful interaction.
- Practice coordinating both hands to improve interaction speed.
- Treat each action like a mini‑puzzle that may need both hands.

Environmental Storytelling
The plot is not delivered directly; instead, the history of the family, the nature of madness, and house mysteries emerge through subtle environmental details. Players must examine objects and surroundings closely. By piecing together these clues, players construct theories about the house’s hidden narrative, fostering deep immersion and personal interpretation.
- Take notes on odd details you encounter for later theory building.
- Compare similar objects in different rooms to spot narrative patterns.
