Layers of Fear

A first-person psychological horror game in which you walk through the constantly shifting rooms of a Victorian-style house as a painter losing his mind. You solve light puzzles, find notes and objects, and the layout changes behind your back. There are no weapons, and it takes only a few hours. Is it your kind of game?
