Suzy Says! House Props, Characters & October 2003 Lore Explained
Behind its bright four-color floor mat, Suzy Says! tells a claustrophobic October 2003 story about a cursed interactive DVD that turns an ordinary suburban house into a ritual trap. This complete atlas documents all 16 verified entities across the game: the 5 characters (Suzy, The Player, Special Friend, Mom, and The Uncle) and all 11 interactive props and environmental clues scattered through the Living Room, Kitchen, Bathroom, Hallways, and Front Door.
All 5 Characters in Suzy Says! & Who Is Suzy Explained
Only two figures ever appear directly inside the October 2003 house—Suzy on the 4:3 CRT television screen and the stalking Special Friend in the darkened corridors—while the Protagonist, Mom, and the Uncle frame the domestic tragedy.
As revealed by the living-room radio in the $1.50 Full Version, Suzy is not merely a pre-recorded children's host: she is a sentient entity tethered to the physical Suzy Says! DVD disc who uses Simon Says obedience rules to weaken the barrier between the broadcast and the house.
Suzy (The Interactive DVD Host)
Animated DVD game host who issues all 20 prefixed and unprefixed mat jumps, gaze checks, and house errands while punishing mistakes. Bound to the cursed interactive DVD, she uses Simon Says rules to ritualistically trap children inside the television.

Every time Suzy commands you to leave the four-color floor mat during Beats 4 through 8, you interact with a specific household object that subtly advances the haunting. Below are all 11 core devices, interactive props, and environmental clues grouped across the October 2003 house.
Suzy Says! Interactive DVD & Player
Booted in Beat 1 to start the broadcast. In the $1.50 Full Version, after hearing the living-room radio clue on a post-ending run, you can eject the disc and snap it in half to destroy Suzy's physical vessel.
Linked Route: Beat 1 Boot & Full Version Secret EndingFour-Color Interactive Floor Mat
Four-pad vinyl peripheral (Red, Green, Blue, Yellow) placed directly in front of the CRT television. Registers player jumps, crouches, and final Beat 8 candle placements—doubling as the occult altar for Suzy's ritual.
Linked Command: Jump on Red / Green / Blue / YellowLiving-Room Radio (Secret Ending Key)
Broadcasts covert audio clues during jumping rounds in the Full Version that expose the physical DVD disc as Suzy's weak point. Developer MOONBIT confirmed on itch.io: "The living room radio, listen at every opportunity :)".
Linked Command: Listen Between Jumping Rounds (Full Version)Four Ritual Candles
Final scavenger-hunt collectibles gathered across the Living Room, Kitchen, Bathroom, and Hallway/Bedroom in Beat 8 and arranged around the floor mat corners to trigger the Beat 9 climax.
Linked Command: "Suzy says, bring me four candles"Kitchen Fridge Drawing
Off-mat errand target in Beat 5 ("Suzy says, touch the fridge drawing"). Visually mutates after being touched, shifting from an innocent child's crayon drawing to depict the dark Special Friend standing among trees.

The Sunflower Painting ("Suzy says, touch the sunflower painting" in Beat 4) and Bathroom Rubber Duck ("Suzy says, touch the rubber duck" in Beat 5) lure you away from the mat into isolated rooms while unseen movement begins.
Linked Commands: Touch the Sunflower Painting / Rubber DuckMedallions / Ritual Symbols
Final gaze-lock target in Beat 9 ("Suzy says, look at these symbols") after all four candles are lit on the mat. These hypnotic sigils put the protagonist to sleep so Suzy can pull their consciousness into the TV.

The interconnected 3D house grows progressively darker between beats, while the Living-Room Clock tracks time distortion and the Tabletop Board Game contrasts ordinary family game night with the cursed DVD.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who is the Special Friend in Suzy Says!?
The Special Friend is the tall shadowy entity that first appears among the trees in the mutating kitchen fridge drawing during Beat 5 and knocks on the front entrance door in Beat 6. If you obey Suzy's trap prompt to open the front door—or if you are caught during Beat 7 Hide and Seek—the Special Friend ambushes you for the Bad Ending.
What happens to the Kitchen Fridge Drawing when you touch it?
When Suzy commands "Suzy says, touch the fridge drawing" during Beat 5, interacting with the child's crayon drawing on the refrigerator door causes the illustration to shift into a grim depiction of the shadowy Special Friend lurking in the woods outside the house.
Where is the Living-Room Radio located and what does it do?
The radio sits on a side stand near the four-color floor mat in the living room. In the $1.50 Full Version (SuzySays_Full.zip), listening to the radio between jumping rounds after completing the normal ending reveals that Suzy is bound to the physical DVD disc, allowing you to eject and break the disc for the Secret Ending.
