About Home Safety Hotline

Home Safety Hotline puts you behind a retro telephone console, fielding calls from distressed homeowners. You consult a catalog of pests and hazards, deducing what lurks inside each house while original jazzy lo‑fi music plays in the background.

The title blends analog‑horror storytelling with a casual simulation loop, includes Phobia Toggles for visual comfort, and supports Steam Achievements and Family Sharing. It runs on Windows and is developed by Night Signal Entertainment.

01 / THE GUIDE

Catalog Navigation

The game provides a vast catalog that lists common pests and household hazards. Each entry contains descriptive details that you match to callers’ reports, making the catalog the primary tool for answering correctly.

Navigation occurs through a 90’s‑style interface that lets you browse entries quickly. Selecting the appropriate entry determines the outcome of each call, so efficient browsing directly influences success.

  • Scan the catalog for entries whose descriptions match keywords from the caller.
  • Open several entries before confirming to reduce misidentification.

02 / THE GUIDE

Caller Interaction

Incoming calls present a homeowner’s concern, and you must respond with safety advice based on the catalog. The game records whether your deduction matches the hidden threat.

If your answer is incorrect, the caller suffers consequences, emphasizing the responsibility placed on the player for each decision.

  • Listen to every detail the caller provides before consulting the catalog.
  • Consider the mentioned room or area, as some hazards are location‑specific.

  • Test the toggle on a short call to confirm it meets your comfort level.

Audio Experience

Original jazzy lo‑fi tracks by David Johnsen play while you place callers on hold, creating a calm yet eerie atmosphere throughout gameplay.

The soundtrack continues during hold periods, adding atmosphere while you manage each call.

  • Use headphones to hear subtle audio signals more clearly.
