Granny

Granny is the house-escape horror that turned an old woman with a baseball bat into one of mobile gaming's most famous villains. You wake up locked in her house with five days to find a way out, and she hears every single sound you make.

Escaping the House in Granny

The house is full of locked doors, hidden keys and tools. Each escape route needs several items, from a hammer to break boards to a padlock key to open the front door. Finding them all without being caught is the challenge.

The old woman patrols constantly. She cannot see well, but her hearing is sharp, and dropping an object or stepping on a creaky floor brings her running.

If she catches you, you lose a day. After five days, the game is over, so every mistake costs precious time.

Sounds, Traps and Hiding

Noise is your biggest enemy. Knocking over a vase, walking on broken glass or opening a squeaky drawer all reveal your position.

The house has traps too. Bear traps on the floor and tripwires in doorways can stop you in your tracks and alert her immediately.

Hiding spots save lives. Beds, wardrobes and cupboards let you wait until she walks away, and learning where they are is essential.

The Remake of Granny

The modern version updates the visuals and refines the house while keeping the original idea. The rooms are sharper and darker, and the tension feels even stronger.

Many escape routes from the original return, along with new details for longtime fans to discover. The basement remains one of the scariest parts of the building.

Fans also look for appearances by Slendrina, a ghostly character tied to the creator's other games. Spotting her is one of the house's most famous surprises.

Why It Fits a Suzy Says! Fan

Suzy's hide sequence is a few minutes of staying out of sight inside a family home. This game builds a whole experience around that feeling, with an adult figure who will punish any mistake.

Both games also rely on sound. Suzy's commands and the old woman's footsteps both tell you exactly when danger is near, and careful listening is the key to survival.

Tips for Escaping Faster

Learn the layout on your first day. Knowing where hiding spots and key rooms are makes later attempts far smoother.

Drop items carefully. If you must put something down, do it on a soft surface like a bed to reduce noise.

Use distractions wisely. Making a sound in one part of the house can pull her away from the room you need.

Different Ways Out

The house has more than one exit. Players can escape through the front door, through the sewer or by other routes depending on the version, and each one needs its own set of items.

Trying different routes is part of the fun. Some are faster, while others require more exploration but feel safer.

Difficulty settings change how aggressive she is and how many traps there are. Starting on an easier mode helps new players learn the house.

Granny is a short, sharp test of nerves and memory. Move quietly, plan your route and try to slip out before the fifth day ends.
