'Perception' continues trend for home exploration games

FRESH TAKE: "Perception" offers a novel approach to both the horror and home exploration genres.

With 2016 release Perception looking to expand on a growing trend for a seemingly mundane gaming genre – wandering around other people's houses – we look at it in the context of five other titles that have plotted similar paths. 

First up, Deep End Games' debut, Perception. It stars Cassie Thornton, whose superhuman (or supernatural) ability allows her to use echolocation to map her surroundings in a detailed and visual manner, if not almost entirely rendered in hues of black and blue.
