It's your job to rent out a haunted house before your tyrannical boss has you fired! It's an interactive novel where your choices control the story. For example, when your tenants, who haven't slept in days due to bone-chilling whispers emanating from the walls, ask to break their lease, do you: A) Let them transfer their lease to another property? B) Allow them to break the lease, but keep their security deposit? C) Insist on sticking to the terms of the lease? D) Boldly investigate, like all the victims in bad horror films? How will you screw over your tenants? Will you ignore inconvenient supernatural phenomena, or use them to drum up publicity? How will you deal with ghost hunters, squatters, and celebrity tenants? Will you emerge as the top agent? Stage an office coup? Or will you become a permanent resident of 57 Crowther Terrace? (This game used to be called "Eerie Estate Agent," before we changed the name. ## Key features - Interactive novel gameplay - Choice-driven story - Manage haunted property - Deal with supernatural events - Interact with tenants and ghost hunters - Multiple story endings ## Pricing and in-app purchases Base price: Free. **One-time purchases** | Purchase | Price | Type | | --- | --- | --- | | Remove Advertising | $4.99 | one-time | | Restart the Game Once | $0.99 | one-time | ## Recent user reviews (10 of 47) All indexed reviews: https://appshunter.io/ios/app/for-rent-haunted-house/id550603644/reviews.md ### 1/5 — Offensive inappropriate ads *2019-03-11* This game was absolutely ruined by a really horrific, scary ad, baiting children into thinking something happened to their mothers, pretty sick for children like mine who live with a sick mother and children who have already lost a mother. I am writing the company an official complaint, the ad is not suitable for a game rated 12+. There was also another advert designed to trick you into playing that game. Pretty rubbish standards so I have deleted it after a handful of mediocre written pages. ### 4/5 — Intriguing *2019-01-05, version 1.2.4* I feel like the author could have expanded the story to cover loose ends about the true nature of happenings in the estate, and perhaps more character development for the Crocodile, Rival and Audrey. Still, it's a short but entertaining read. I'm just disappointed that the paranormal events were denied closure, but I guess that in the end that's what a good mystery novel should deliver..? ### 5/5 — Brilliant *2018-06-18* Really love this game, brilliantly written and replay-able. 5 stars! ### 5/5 — Fun! *2018-02-13* Strong five stars. Maybe just a little bit too short in my opinion. Still - love it. I’ve just recommended it to my estate agent friend. We’ll see how she likes it! ### 1/5 — Scam!!! *2017-10-29* Do not pay for this game! They say that there will be no more ads if you upgrade, then deny that you paid, even though you have proof. Choice of games are a scam! Avoid! ### 1/5 — WORTHLESS *2017-03-27, version 1.1.2* Choice of Games are normally great, but NOT THIS ONE! Writing is decent, but choices rarely vary or matter. Cantankerous, monotonous, and depressing. NOT WORTH PAYING FOR!!!! ### 4/5 — Surprisingly Good *2016-12-11* I didn't think I would like it but it turned out to be more interesting than I expected it to be. ### 3/5 — okay *2016-11-08* this game was pretty fun to play. interesting, unique concept and a few funny moments. but it is not worth $5. it's a very short game and it doesn't go very in depth in regards to the characters. you can't even become friends with anyone. i wouldn't nitpick over this if it weren't for the fact that the ad free version of this game is so high in price. there are much better, more involved choice of game games for $2-$4 and i feel like the $5 price on this game makes it deserving of higher expectations. that said, if you don't mind the occasional ad and the ad banner at the bottom of your screen, it's a fun little game to play through:) ### 4/5 — Fun *2016-07-10, version 1.1.2* Character development and plot could have been better for Russell Audrey and the rival. Unsure how many endings there are in total, I got around 4, but judging from answers in forum, not many. This means your choices do not affect too much in your outcome ### 5/5 — Hauntingly Good *2016-07-09* I don't know why some people have said that this story is so lame. I have played many CoG games and this is absolutely one of the best. The story is endlessly entertaining. The best part: it's totally free. You can buy the upgrade to eliminate the ads and lose the wait time between games, but you don't need to. The ads are mostly small banners on the bottom of the screen that I barely noticed and it's only a 20 minute wait between games. I highly recommend this game to everyone. You will love it! ## Frequently asked questions about For Rent ### What is this app about?
