User Reviews

Overall, players praise Home Behind for its compelling story, strong replayability, and challenging but rewarding gameplay. The main downsides repeatedly cited are the punishing 'restart from scratch' mechanic on death, high difficulty and repetition, and several UI/UX and accessibility issues, including small text and cutscene delays. Some players report issues with endless mode purchases and occasional bugs. The game is seen as having good value and a powerful, empathetic portrayal of refugees, with standout world-building and varied scenarios that change with every run.

Pros

Engaging, emotionally impactful storyline with dynamic characters and thoughtful social commentary.
Very high replay value and long playtime due to varied scenarios each run.
Challenging but fair gameplay with multiple difficulty levels and meaningful upgrade paths.
Strong world-building, art/design, and educational aspects that raise awareness about refugee experiences.
Good overall value; many players feel the full version delivers substantial content.

Cons

You die and you must restart from the beginning, with progress lost, which is extremely frustrating.
The game can be very challenging and repetitive, leading to frequent deaths and fatigue.
UI/UX issues hamper play (terrible UI, small text on iPhone, occasional cutscene delays).
Endless/long-term mode purchase may not work for some players, blocking additional content.

I’ve been playing this game for months now, and I can say I’ve put in a good amount of hours into it. Each game is not the same, different scenarios & different ways to survive. That’s what makes it fun.

This is my favorite game, I have played it all the way through many times. Please make a sequel, especially with the ending it has... maybe he could find his daughter at the half way point and have to support food and water for two? And to win the game you need to get to safe settlement and obtain/upgrade a house/apartment/rented room? I really hope there is a home behind 2 in the works!
