An upcoming indie title, [*Gone Home*](http://thefullbrightcompany.com/gonehome/?ref=killscreen.com), revolves around solving a mystery in a home from the mid 1990s through exploring it. The team developing *Gone Home* has experience on *Bioshock* projects, but *Gone Home* should be a bit less scary.
