About the Game

Hope Is Poison. Dreams Are Forbidden.

Welcome to Lethia, a world where everyone lives with a smile—yet no one dares speak of hope.

Guided by the cult's doctrine that “Hope leads people to despair.” this unsettling paradise has erased every trace of hope and dreams from human hearts.

If They Find You, They Will Erase You

Every citizen worships the cult without question. As an outsider, you are branded a heretic. If your existence is discovered, you will be hunted down and executed without mercy.

A Mysterious Girl and the Cult's Dark Plan

Behind the peaceful facade lies a terrifying scheme to preserve this false paradise forever. Together with a mysterious girl who holds the key to everything, uncover the truth hidden beneath the world's smiling mask.

Wield Your Sword and Cut Through the World's Lies

Monstrous creatures known as the Nue roam the wilderness, while the cult's relentless surveillance follows your every move. To find your way home, you must draw your sword and fight alone.

Explore and Fight

Freely explore a top-down 2D world, battle enemies with responsive sword combat, and experience a fast-paced action adventure driven by intuitive controls.

Uncover the Truth Beneath the Surface

Overcome dangerous areas, solve environmental puzzles, and venture ever deeper toward the secrets the cult has sacrificed everything to hide.

Your Choices Shape the Future

When you uncover the truth of this world—and your own forgotten past—you will be forced to confront a cruel reality.

The future is determined not by fate, but by your actions.

Multiple Endings

Whose beliefs will you embrace? Which path will you choose? Every decision you make gradually shapes the story, leading to dramatically different endings.

A Beautiful Yet Cruel Choice

In a paradise where hope has been abandoned, what future will you choose?

The answer awaits at the end of your journey.
