I Hate This Place is a craft-focused isometric survival horror game from Rock Square Thunder, built on Skybound's Eisner Award-nominated comic series of the same name. Playing as Elena, a summoning gone wrong traps her in Rutherford Ranch alongside twisted creatures that hunt largely by sound, forcing careful scavenging and stealth over brute force.
A day-night cycle shifts the risk: daylight allows relatively safe exploring and base-building, while night turns the ranch hostile and forces players to hide or lure enemies into traps rather than fight them head-on. This Elena's Edition physical release from Meridiem packages the game with a special-effect cover, a secret in-character letter, and an artbook drawn from its comic-inspired visual style.
