8 itemsAbout the Game
Kaito returns to Nemunai after receiving a disturbing letter from his friend Reiko. What seemed like a simple visit quickly turns into a nightmare. The streets are strangely empty, the townspeople no longer seem themselves, and an ancient curse begins to awaken.
Explore the station, the village, Reiko’s house and other locations marked by fog, silence and distortion. Find key items, read notes, solve small puzzles and progress little by little as you uncover what truly lies behind the spiral.
Switch between first-person, third-person or fixed camera and experience Nemunai your way. Each perspective changes how you explore the village and face what lurks within.
In Nemunai, some encounters completely change the experience. When certain enemies catch you, the game shifts into direct 1v1 combat inspired by classic 2D fighting games. Learn their patterns, find the right moment to strike and survive.
