Following his signature series of clever color-based puzzles, Bart Bonte returns with an entirely new brainteaser. This time, the solo indie developer trades vibrant challenges for an unexpectedly meditative experience centered around mundane morning routines.
7:00 AM Start
The game begins with your alarm buzzing at 7 AM sharp. Designed as a point-and-click adventure, Leaving Home mirrors real-life logic—whether locating light switches or finding clothes in cluttered drawers. Players interact with bedroom objects through intuitive taps to establish their daily rhythm.
Progress requires solving straightforward pattern-matching puzzles through alignment and rotation before advancing. The journey continues to the bathroom, maintaining the same tactile interaction approach.
Visual minimalism and ambient sound design cultivate melancholic undertones, while Bonte's signature surreal abstraction permeates every intentionally odd design choice.
Streamlined Gameplay Experience
Eight interconnected rooms form the game's handmade universe. Players navigate bizarre spaces through environmental puzzles and uncovering hidden eccentricities—classic Bonte hallmarks.

Bart Bonte continues his legacy of chromatic puzzles (Yellow, Red, Black, Blue, Green, Pink, Purple, Orange) alongside unconventional titles like Logica Emotica and Words for a bird, with Leaving Home being his latest addition.
The game poetically captures sluggish mornings and deliberate routines through atmospheric storytelling. Currently free on Google Play with optional ad removal, Leaving Home offers accessible existential contemplation.
