comment
Anatomy is a Psychological Horror game created by Kitty Horrorshow. The game starts with the player inside of an empty and abandoned home, with the only company in it are cassette tape recordings from someone who had been in there prior, which the player finds throughout the house. The person on the tapes describes that a house is very resemblant of the human mind and body, and goes into detail about why it therefore can't be trusted.The game can be downloaded here for only two dollars.Because this is a very short game (roughly half an hour in length), expect spoilers below.

Multiple Endings: The scene after being Eaten Alive seems to change by some factor. Players have found themselves trying to reenter the house, being inside of a fleshy room, and walking through a maze.

Primal Fear: Anatomy plays on the fear that your only safe space is not as safe as you think, and can betray you at any time. The game gives you limited vision, and keeps egging you on that something is going to happen, until it does.

comment
Chekhov's Gun: Even when all the doors are unlocked during the second and third playthroughs, the basement is off-limits until the end. Many times, mouth imagery is used before the tape compares the master bedroom to one. Later, we learn that the tapes mean this quite literally during the final trip to the basement.

Game-Breaking Bug
 Anatomy (Video Game) / int_33ca811a
comment
Game-Breaking Bug: Invoked, as the game deliberately crashes a few times, with flickering objects which get worse each time. The house's layout makes less and less sense as textures go through rooms, the mirror in the bathroom is inverted sideways, scenery and tapes floating, distorted audio, and so forth.

Genius Loci: The house rearranges itself throughout the game, first manifesting as the door you came into the master bedroom through subtly disappearing behind you after you collect the tape inside. This is further shown through the Game-Breaking Bugs mentioned above.

comment
Body Motifs: The tapes describe several parts of the house in linking to the human body, but focus primarily on the mind; the master bedroom is one of dreams, as the basement keeps those thoughts you keep to yourself. It also focuses a lot on mouths and teeth, as some portraits show human teeth, leading up to the house devouring the protagonist.

"The Reason You Suck" Speech: The final tape recording has the narrator addressing the player directly, lambasting them for constantly poking around the House and trying to learn its secret when all they were supposed to do was listen to his lectures.

Asshole Victim: The tape where the house directly takes over as the voice of the tape has it describing a man who approached the house and vandalized it for some sick laughs. Then he is devoured by the house when it closes a door on him and grows a stomach in its basement.

Creepy Basement: As the tapes point out, the basement of the house is linked to the imagination. It goes into detail about how throughout our childhoods, we dream up of monsters inside of it. It's empty. At least, at first.

comment
And I Must Scream: Not to the player, but for the house itself, this is its fate. It is left dormant and left to rot indefinitely as it awaits someone to finally come inside. Ever hungry, but never starving. Even the player is implied to not even exist, but is just a projection the house made to keep itself company.

The Fourth Wall Will Not Protect You: As it goes on, the game will crash at points and causes some Interface Screw each time it's reloaded, including the title screen which becomes more and more decrepit until culminating in it instead saying "YOU NEVER CAME BACK" after you're eaten.

Haunted House: The premise of Anatomy is that a seemingly normal-looking house with odd tape recordings is not as ordinary as it may seem. This is actually subverted: the house isn't haunted, it's sentient.
