EXCUSE ME SIR (stylized in all caps) is a Point-and-Click Action-Adventure Horror game. It was released on November 10th 2023 and is a collaboration between Airdorf Games of FAITH fame, Molly Moonn, and Torple Dook.
You play as a person who, while looking for their missing brother, meets a woman named Molly, who invites you into her home. Can you solve the mystery of your missing brother? Or will Molly lure you to your doom?
The demo was released on itch.io for free. You can play it here

EXCUSE ME SIR contains examples of:
- Blood Magic: You are forced to sacrifice a pig by the cult in the basement.
- Casual Danger Dialogue: When Molly lunges at you and roars while her face warps beyond recognition, all the protagonist has to say is "Time to go".
- Creepy Basement: When you enter Molly's house, she ushers you into her unfinished basement, where you meet the cult.
- Cult: There's one in Molly's basement. They're implied to have taken your missing brother, along with Molly.
- Featureless Protagonist: There's no sprite for the protagonist, and next to nothing is revealed about them.
- I Never Said It Was Poison: A subtle example: when you enter Molly's house, if you asked to use the phone, she'll say "I'll ask my friends if they've seen your brother", even though you never told her about your missing brother.
- I Will Find You: Your objective is to find your brother, who's been missing for a few days.
- Kick the Dog: The cult forces you to sacrifice a pig as part of the ritual. Its screams are truly disturbing.
- Missing Reflection: When you look in the mirror in the bathroom, you don't see your reflection.
- Nightmare Face: Molly's face when she lunges at you.
- Notice This: All of the interactable objects have a big sparkle on them to indicate you can click them.
- Stop Motion: A rare stop motion game. The animations are made up of real-life photos.
- Suburban Gothic: You're trying to find your missing brother in what seems like an innocent suburban neighborhood and stumble upon a Cult with an Ambiguously Human leader.
- Surreal Horror: The itch.io page describes the game as "creepy, surreal, and if you're not careful... deadly!"
- Take Your Time: When Molly is chasing you, you're not in any real danger until you hide. You can stand still for however long you want.
- Wacky Sound Effect: When you kill the pig demon you summon in the basement, it makes a loud cartoon "splat" noise. The cult members that explode right afterwards make the same sound effect. As does the game-over screen.
Let's play a game.
