House Sitter is a sandbox/exploration game developed by Eric Steinberg.

You play as Pierre, who's been left by his mother to house sit the house. However, said house is far from normal.

The game was released on Steam in 2020.

Not be confused with other video games by the same name.


House Sitter presents examples of:

  • Animate Inanimate Object: The main trope of this game. Almost everything inside the house (and outside of it) is alive.
  • Multiple Endings:
    • The "Normal Ending", in which Pierre destroys at least one furniture in the house without fixing it.
    • The "Good Ending", in which Pierre doesn't left any furniture destroyed.
    • The "Bad Ending", in which Pierre destroys various furnitures under the TV's orders and is then sent to Purgatory.
    • The "Secret Ending"note , where Pierre reaches the basement before completing his chores and is trapped in Purgatory for all eternity.
  • Pun-Based Title: The title doesn't reference simply to the fact that Pierre is house sitting, but also to something else. See The Reveal below.
  • The Reveal: As revealed by either the Normal, Good or Bad Ending, Pierre is actually a living chair. The Good Ending reveals his siblings are also chairs, while the mother is a table.
