My Sweet Housemate

You wake up in a new apartment, meet your landlord for the first time, and something about how interested he is in your daily routine is impossible to shake. My Sweet Housemate builds its entire hook around that unease, wrapping a real horror game inside what plays, on the surface, like a cozy life-sim dating story.

My Sweet Housemate Is About Living With Seung-min

Your days revolve around Seung-min, the landlord whose behavior gets more unusual the closer you let him get, and every interaction — small tasks, conversations, shared routines — nudges your relationship with him toward one of several possible outcomes. You build your own player character first, with control over name, pronouns, voice, and even your room’s layout, which makes the growing unease that follows feel more personally aimed at you.

My Sweet Housemate Stays Sweet Until It Suddenly Isn’t

• The tone shifts between genuinely charming and openly unsettling, often within the same scene.
• Content listed for the game includes horror, violence, and other disturbing material well beyond what the cozy art style suggests up front.
• Trust and closeness with Seung-min shape which ending you land on, rewarding attention to how your choices are read rather than just clicking through dialogue.

1. Is My Sweet Housemate more horror or more romance? It’s built as a genuine hybrid — the routine and affection are real, but so is the horror underneath it, and the game doesn’t let either side cancel the other out.
2. How long does a full playthrough take? Around one to two hours, short enough to see a full ending in a single sitting.

My Sweet Housemate earns its reputation as “deliciously horrifying” by never fully tipping its hand — Seung-min stays charming enough that the darker turns land harder, and that balance is the whole reason the game has stuck with players well past a first playthrough.
