I tried this (horrible) game from the BeMine Bundle:it's terrible.
First,the game can be completed in only 30 minutes.Ok,this is not really a problem...but if you pay it 7 euro (the official price on Steam),yes,it is.
Home is only about 40 minutes long,but I loved it (and I bought it at "full" price for 2 euro on Steam) and the price is worth it for the time played.
Second,this is a graphic adventure...but ALL puzzles are illogical.
To open a door on the beginning of the game, you must use a pine cone on it,light it with your zippo and...the door is set on fire and you can open it.But really,it isn't the only absurde puzzle of the game,is only the FIRST puzzle of the game.It's sad.
Third...there are only four location in this game (exterior one, first floor,second floor,basement). Yes,there are three endings,but all are really ugly and you can access them in only two plays (remember that the FULL game can be completed in 30 minutes,there's also a steam achievement for it).
The story is...poor.This is the only thing I can say about.There's also a notebook you can read as PDF but it doesn't really add anything to the full experience.
Avoid this game if you can,it is really a mess.
Last thing:developers on official site said that this game can be completed in 9 hours. THIS IS FALSE! I completed it without a walkthrought,seeing two ending in one plays,in one hour and 40 minutes.
There's also a bug related to SteamCloud,if you make a save of the same name as the first one,the game reload always the oldest save stored on Cloud.Due to this,I must repeat the first section three times before realized that you must rename your savefile if you wanna reload it.
EDIT:The game has also a Kalypso online activation...I hate this DRM.
