About
Haunted House, released in 1982, is an iconic action-adventure game developed by James Andreasen for the Atari 2600. Players navigate through a haunted mansion, represented only by a pair of disembodied eyes, as they hunt for three pieces of an urn belonging to the late Zachary Graves. Notably, it is one of the earliest examples of the survival horror genre, blending exploration and puzzle-solving elements which have influenced many games that followed.
When it comes to PC performance, Haunted House is quite accessible. The minimum GPU requirement is an entry-level card with a score of around 1410, and players will need a CPU with a score near 181, alongside at least 4 GB of RAM. This means that even basic systems can expect smooth gameplay and decent FPS, making it easy for gamers to adjust graphics settings based on their hardware capabilities without the need for high-end components.
Given its rating of 70/100 and its significant place in gaming history, Haunted House is definitely worth a play, especially for fans of retro gaming and those interested in the evolution of the horror genre. While the graphics may not meet modern standards, the experience offers a charming nostalgia that many players appreciate.
Performance profile
Released in February 1982, Haunted House predates modern GPU acceleration as we know it today. It runs effortlessly on virtually any current hardware, including integrated graphics and entry-level laptops — framerate is limited by the engine, not the GPU.
Haunted House is a narrative-driven experience — a rock-solid 60 FPS is plenty. Prioritise resolution and image quality (AA, anisotropic filtering) over chasing high-refresh framerates.
Extremely light — Haunted House runs at 60 FPS 1080p on any integrated GPU (Intel Iris Xe, AMD Radeon Graphics) or a decade-old discrete card like the GTX 1050. A current-gen RTX 4060 pushes 4K Ultra without effort.
Storyline
Hidden throughout a haunted mansion are three pieces of a magical urn, and your goal is to enter the mansion and retrieve all three before you lose your nine lives! The game is played from an overhead point of view where you see only your eyeballs as you explore the four floors of the maze-like mansion. To make your mission even more difficult, there are various creatures wandering throughout. Tarantulas, giant vampire bats, and one fast moving ghost will all cause you to lose a life if encountered too closely. As a defense against the creatures, a magical scepter can be found in the mansion which will make you immune to its inhabitants. The mansion contains many doors, some of which may be locked; to explore all the rooms, you will first need to find the master key which is hidden somewhere. The mansion is very dark, and you will not be able to see any of the objects in it (and in more difficult game variations, you can't see the walls either). To reveal objects and the mansion walls, you need to light one of your unlimited supply of matches which will light up a small area around you. Don't be surprised if a swift wind or passing creature blow out your match, though! You are only allowed to carry one object at a time so you will need to create a strategy for exploring the mansion; to unlock a door or move a piece of the urn, you will need to put down the scepter. You win the game when all three pieces of the urn are assembled and you make it out of the mansion. The game keeps track of how many matches you have used on your mission, and the fewer matches the better the score.
