Room of Depression

Room of Depression follows Moon, a young office worker living an outwardly ordinary city life while dealing with depression. Everyday encounters and events are filtered through her perspective, revealing how they can feel different from the outside.

Players move through scenes from Moon’s daily life, interact with people and objects, read dialogue and inner thoughts, and make small choices. Simple puzzles and mini-games turn some routine actions and conversations into interactive moments.

The short, linear story advances through illustrated narrative scenes and walking sections in tunnel-like spaces. These interludes and activities accompany Moon’s reflections as the story moves between parts of her everyday life.

Players who enjoy the game often value its quiet depiction of depression in everyday routines, finding some moments relatable and the experience thought-provoking or empathy-building. The soft art and music also receive praise. Others feel the portrayal is too brief or surface-level, and the religious sections are especially divisive: some find them intrusive, while others see faith as one part of Moon’s personal story.
