About the Game

You are plagued by nightmares featuring your deceased younger sister, “Haru.” You head to a village in search of memories of Haru and the secret behind the nightmares. There, you must perform a “Ritual of Sacrifice” for five days.

Rules of the <Ritual of Sacrifice>

- Come alone.

-Every morning, draw a slip of paper from the box in front of the shrine and bring back the <Sacrifice> written on it.

-Do not go outside after sunset; if you absolutely must, cover your eyes.

-Do not answer any voices you hear inside the shrine.

For just five days, perform the Sacrifice Ritual and explore the village.

But you will never make it to the final day.

Because as a human, you cannot go any further.

Always be cautious and suspicious—of yourself and of your day.

Features

“Haru” is a walking simulator in the horror genre.

You must explore the village for 5 days and offer sacrifices at the shrine.
