The House Abandon
The unknown player-character plays the eponymous text-based adventure game, The House Abandon. In-game, the protagonist drives up to his family's holiday home, which he recalls fondly. A note in the glove compartment from his father helps him start the power. The player enters and explores the building, finding his old (and fictional) "Futuro 128k +2" computer, with the same copy of The House Abandon.
When the protagonist starts the game, a power outage occurs. When The House Abandon restarts, the environment is different; The eyes are scratched out in photos on the desk, and the digital clock is reset. This time, the house described in the game is in a terrible state with broken windows, stains, a carcass, and a terrible stench, surfacing undesirable memories and feelings in the protagonist. The note keeps changing every time the protagonist reads it, with progressively more horrifying messages as well as becoming physically uncomfortable.
Once the player inside the game opens the door of the house, it becomes apparent that actions inside the text adventure are mirrored in "real-life", as sounds of the player in the game can be heard around the house, and events in the room occur and respond to the environment described in the computer game; the game eventually struggles to distinguish the player sitting and playing, and the player walking around the house.
The protagonist becomes aware of another person in the house. They come upstairs, full of anger, disturbed thoughts, and suggestions of vague but horrible past events. They open the bedroom door and eventually enter, standing behind the player-character: the protagonist himself. The episode ends when the computer game forces the seated player-character to repeatedly admit, "It was all my fault". It then slowly responds: "finally".
