About the Game

This is a psychological horror game filled with oppressive atmosphere. In the game, five ordinary people including the protagonist come to an ancient castle on a small island near the far north for vacation, only to find the island completely deserted. They discover strange human-faced megaliths near the castle. Then at night, terrifying events begin to happen as monsters start appearing.

Players need to control the protagonist Daniel to protect companions, collect clues and items within limited time, while avoiding the pursuit of Victor (an NPC who transforms into a monster) and the curse of the human-faced megaliths. They must uncover the truth about the 1890 expedition and ultimately engage in a final battle against the mutated monster.

The game features tight pacing, with playthrough time ranging from 1 to 3 hours depending on player choices. After completing the game, new story branches and hidden endings can be unlocked.
