Here's an overview of the game via DreadXP:
About
After Kate inherits her aunt's house, Riley Park begins to investigate what the haughty woman left behind. Riley is surprised to find a stack of VHS tapes in the attic next to an old TV. The tapes look like episodes of a children's cartoon from the early 2000s. Intrigued, Riley puts the first tape into the VCR.
Relatively simple in appearance, it's locally made and features a little girl named Amanda and her loyal but shy best friend, Wooly the Sheep. While the episode seems charming and simple on the surface, a concern begins to emerge as Riley realizes that Amanda and Wooley are communicating directly through the television. A gnawing sensation in the back of his mind makes them stop, but Riley is forced to continue watching the tapes. It's almost like Amanda needs something, and Riley is fascinated to find out what it might be.

- Characters that connect directly with the audience – any '90s kid's dream come true… or is it a nightmare?
