Welcome HOME, dear puppeteer.

This world has been waiting some time for your arrival. The tables
of balance has been turned, and the fate of the world trusted
into a familiar face. The guardian of zone 0 himself, The Judge. Your job is to lead him on a new journey, masterful puppeteer.

This world is wrapped in an enigma, a shroud of confusion overlapped the
once peaceful zones. The true guardian of zone 0 himself has the very marrow
of his bones rattled with the feelings of Deja Vu. The day that he would become the marionette of the new world is coming, and upon your very arrival the world will undergo otherworldly changes.

Just what is going on in this world? Why has the switch been reset? Has The Judge forgotten everything that happened? Has the world been reversed to a state of pristine ignorance? Only you can find out, fateful puppeteer. You will travel the world, and meet the guardians you know so well. However, you will face enemies and foes unlike anything you've imagined. New allies will join your side, and new personalities will be explored. New places will be visited, a zone that defies the logic and reason of the world you know. Puzzles that expand beyond the game and into our world. You will become one with your puppet, and in your combined state you will bring the land to the closure it deserves. The fate, and the direction of that closure however, is up to the decisions you make. Choose wisely my friend, its up to you to save their HOME.

HOME is a non-canonical fangame created with the permission of Mortis Ghosts, the creator of OFF - the game from which HOME was inspired. You take control of The Judge in this project, and see the world through his eyes.



New characters and enemies are introduced in this story, with a combat system that's more threatening and challenging than OFF's style. HOME makes uses of the elements and status effect system and stretches is as far as possible. It's recommended you play Mortis Ghosts "OFF" before you touch this project, as this game and its entirety is connected and continued after OFF. Playing HOME without first playing OFF will not only lead to spoilers but will lead you to a path of confusion and detachment from the entire world.

The game features custom sprites, music, icons, sound effects, and battle animations. It uses as much fresh resources where and whenever possible.

In Memoriam

It is incredibly sad to have to break this news to those who may not know of it as yet, but the creator of this game, TheJudge, passed away recently.

As such we, the staff of RMN, are posting this blog informing all who knew him and enjoyed his games (both in the past and the future) of this tragedy.

Too soon we have lost another comrade to that final rest. May you remain forever in our hearts, Judge.


Rest in Peace

Excuse me... why my hp is 1 from the beginning?TAT
Please fix..thx
I just downloaded HOME and ran it on my computer. I did not start off with 1 HP. My level was one, but that's about it. What exactly happened on your end? Is this the MAC version?
I played on my mobile phone with a stimulator. Myabe that's the problem..
Mobile phone isn't compatible with HOME because HOME uses a special RTP that allows me to skip the title screen. That's how the version splash/warning messages appear before the actual game title screen.
Okay..thx a lot
I'll play on my computer anyway:]

Best of luc, have fun <3
Hey! I'm really enjoying HOME so far, and I have a small question I'd like to ask: I don't have the July and I want to give the months to the guy in zone 0 and I want to know if it's too late for me to get it or if it's just in one of the purified zones.

Thanks!
I REALLY, REALLY, *REALLY* LOVE THIS GAME. <3 >U<
I've finished it around weeks ago however I have only decided to create an account on this site now and one of the first things I wanted to do was comment here.
I really, really, really love it. It's so perfect. I just have no words ohgosh heLP
I'mma for sure write a review for this when I have time. I just love it so much.
Keep up with the amazing work!! :3 <3 <3 <3
<3 I look forward to the review. :3
Good evening Mr. Judge. I am very much enjoying HOME and the puzzling elements you've created for us. I am having a problem however, specifically for Mac. Upon digging through the games files when prompted to find the "Treasure Chest.zip" file, an error occurs when I try and extract the file with the archive utility program. After entering what appears to be an acceptable answer to the password prompt, the error reads: "Unable to expand "Treasure Chest.zip" into "HOME". (Error 2 - No such file or directory."

In an attempt to fix this error, I tried copying the .zip file to various locations (eg. Desktop, Documents) to make the extraction as simple as possible, but to no avail. I was wondering if you have heard of this error before or know a possible solution? I also have the HOME PC version that I am running on the Wine PC emulator if that offers an alternative solution.

I am very eager to see what lies inside the cryptic Treasure Chest so I may complete this masterpiece of a game. I hope you might be able to help me.

Thank you for your time. I greatly appreciate your patience and efforts put into making HOME and helping us fans remedy our problems so we may enjoy this excellent creation!
oh crap. The person who made the mac port didn't fix that issue. I can just tell you whats inside. The password is Shift, Enter, Left, Right, Left, Up, Shift.
Where is the second zodiac coin in zone 3? You said that it was in area 4 but i've looked everywhere there and i couldn't find it.
Thank you very much Mr. Judge, I do appreciate your timely response and insight. I'm eager to see what else you create in the future!

There is only 5 zodiac coins now. I changed this to be less confusing. There's only the coin from Sugar to get.
Rest in peace, Felix<33
This is such a fantastic game, I'm honored to have been able to play it
Rest in peace TheJudge :) I found this sad revelation on tumblr about your death, and I love your game! (never finished it because I got lost) I will finish it though in your honor!
Oh.. I am filled with sadness and denial. I am going to miss Felix, we had a few small conversations on Tumblr. They were short lived and well appreciated. He was supportive and kind, and it hit me so hard when I found out he passed away. Rest in peace, my friend.
My condolences for you and your family, Felix. I hope you rest in peace. I finished the game as an homage to you.

I never got to know you, but you'll always be remembered in my heart in the form of The Judge. I guided you and your friends in a quest and saved the world. That's a nice way to think about it, right..?

May you live forever in the masterpiece you created. And in our pure imagination.
I've been trying to run the game in every possible way and just when it starts loading, when I have that little sliver of hope that yes it's working it shuts down the whole thing, it restores down my file explorer and the game is open in the task bar but when I click on it to open it the same thing happens again. If anyone knows a way on how to run the game I would love to know, I've been so excited to play this game for so long, so it's really disheartening that I can't. Thank you to whoever has a solution to fix my problem!
It's sad that nobody continue this game anymore or even visit this game,I mean it's true it's already done but still.....
