About the Game

In a sunken garden, Yomi itself is watching you.

A first-person horror experience where Japanese mythology meets thalassophobia.

―――

Edo-era Japan. A condemned criminal, cast into the river to die.

But the place you awaken is not the afterlife you expected.

This is Yomi — the realm between life and death.

A submerged Japanese garden, entwined with the ruins of forgotten shrines.

Lantern light is your only guide on land.

Below the murky water, vision fails you.

And something inhuman lingers in the silence.

Something stirs beneath the water.

Something that moves the moment you look away.

Ancient yōkai, born of forgotten legends, wait for you here.

Will you carry your sins, or seek atonement?

The path you walk will decide your fate.

Yomi sees everything you are.
