GESTALT: The Fifth Day [2023] 2024.4.5

NOTE:This game is the first 2023 release of GESTALT:The Fifth Day, originally made for Itch. There is a new version on Steam that I've created that released on April 5, 2024, that contains a complete overhaul of many mechanics, new scenarios and art, and much more. If you want to play the newest version, you can find it here!

Wickeina 'Wicke' Gestalt lives in a haunted house.

It can be difficult to find happiness when toiling away at your full time job. Combine that with a house full of entities and strange phenomenon that all seem to work against her, and it's clear that Wicke is stuck in a difficult circumstance.

Play as Wicke, trying to balance the stresses of life and the horrors of her home through this point-and-click horror experience. Learn more about the house and its history, the strange entities within, and Wicke herself as you play through multiple scenarios that will test your wits and mettle. In each scenario, both success and failure both progress the story, meaning you've got one chance per day to try and lead a normal life. However, when reexperiencing these days again, you may find that the house is not thesame as it once was and may have more secrets and trials to throw Wicke's way than what was once thought...

**Average Playthrough:Appx. 1 hour**
