A downloadable game for Windows


Renting a house near the beach is the dream. A great view, no noise, no neighbors for miles and no way out. After all who would want to leave their comfy beach house? Right?
....right?

STEAM VERSION NOW AVAILABLE

The Steam version includes new content and features, such as achievements. We've also added a zine DLC with more information about the world of Rental!

Controls:

  • Arrows or WASD to move
  • Space to interact

With the spooky season upon us,  Smarto Club decided to take a break from being wholesome and turned spookyo with Rental, an eerie game about the risks of renting beach houses.

I played this 3 months ago as the first real gaming video on my channel! It was fun and a great game to introduce me to PC movement mechanics. I enjoyed playing through Umi so much!! 

A magnificent game, fantastic, it was short for me but I loved it. https://youtu.be/bz_C5Fkw7BM?si=rdzmzpgafkaOFamR

this game was more freaky than anything but still rlly good and eerie!

I enjoyed this.. Nothing over the top but a great and spooky time! Great work!!

Hey there! I recorded this game for my second gaming video on my channel. I liked it a lot! (I played the steam version) It got pretty creepy and it was a pretty good story :)

Here is my video if you're interested in watching.. Thank you so much in advance! (I'm very new to this so don't be too harsh :P)

J'ai bien aimé ce jeu, cependant la partie avec le labyrinthe m'a tellement fait galérer... j'ai dû appeler mes amis à la rescousse.. XD // I liked this game, but the labyrinth part was so hard... I had to call my friends to rescue me... XD

This was a 10/10 game, with it's cute art style it is as eerie as ever! I loved all of the camera angles and the way you had to play the game!
(+1)

This was such a cute game, I was not expecting for it to turn into what it did. I enjoyed it formal lol. Thank you.

A horrifying take on what we view as cute. Played the updated version on steam and made a deep dive on all the lore the game has to offer :))

(+1)

I liked the game very bizarre the story I enjoyed the gameplay beautiful game congratulations keep it up

Gameplay PT-BR

(+1)

Made a video on Rental

This was really cute and cozy but make it horror! Which I loved! I hope they expand on the story it left me wanting more! Would love a sequel! Was very well made! 

(+1)

Really enjoyed this! I'm glad so many people have played it, you folks are getting the praise you deserve. I'm a big fan of eerie games, especially with old school graphics. Reminds me so much of Silent Hill or a Resident Evil game. 

It would be really cool to see you folks make an outwardly scary game. I think your style has a lot of potential there. Not that I wouldn't mind more ethereal and surreal games!
(I made a little video of my gameplay as well!)

Simplesmente amável e lindo, achei super divertido e acho que foi uma das minhas primeiras experiências no canal com um jogo em terceira pessoa, adorei! Gameplay:

This Game reminds me of the nun. love it!
(+1)

I would love to see more of this with a more serious tone. We don't have enough cute HORROR. Can be quite funny at times as well as spooky. Well done !

I made a video on your game if you're interested :)
(+1)

Loved it, 10/10, Umi is just like me frfr

(+1)

I skipped all the dialogue and found myself alone in a horror game with no idea what I was doing.

(+1)

I originally found this game on Steam, but saw it was on here too.. game is cute, but creepyyyy.. the writing is hilarious too.  nicely done

(+1)


I really love the cute style of this game, and I especially love the Resident Evil and Silent Hill inspirations!! I love that old PS1 vibe that I get from it! I would love to see this game expanded upon because the backstory was interesting!

(+1)

Cool atmosphere.

(+1)

Hey guys!

come checkout my newest video on this game!

had such a great time with it!!

(+1)

Very unique little game, I love the mix of a cute style and a horror setting, it's always fun to see how different developers mix those two styles. I will say though that there is a tiny bug in the locked wardrobe, basically after interacting with it the first time, you can keep interacting with it and technically getting an infinite amount of crosses. It doesn't actually impact the amount of crosses needed but I thought I'd mention it. Anyways, I loved it and I particularly love how unbothered Umi seems through it all haha. The game starts at 23:31 on my video and the wardrobe glitch is a bit after 28:46

Jugué la versión de Steam pero igualmente dejo esto aquí porque me gustó el juego y me hizo gracia el diseño de los personajes.
