Gamers are pretty familiar with couches. Hell, most people are pretty familiar with couches. But what if your couch was possessed by a demon? What if it was possessed by a stupid LED light strip with sensors under the cushions? That’s what the new game Hellcouch asks.

I don’t know what this is. I don’t care what it is.

I honestly don’t know if it’s real

I think it is, but who knows. One of the creators, Carol Mertz, states that Hellcouch looks at the rules surrounding “public spaces and couches and video games.”

The only way I’ve ever looked at a couch is in a “is it comfortable or not” manner and personal space is a real thing and, like bathrooms, you should always leave a courtesy spot in-between unless impossible.
