About the Game

šŸ•Æļø A Mission of Revelation and Salvation

Otherworld ChroniclesĀ is a Lovecraftian game centered on narrative and puzzle-solving.

You step into a cursed and forgotten world. The gods have fallen, civilizations lie in ruins, and conflicts between races and families continue to shape the land ā€” while its true history has long been buried by time and power.

Entrusted with a mission, you will gather and organize surviving texts, clues, and ruins, preserving the traces this world has left behind.

In Otherworld Chronicles, you will discover that
to understand this world is, in itself, the first step toward salvation.

āš”ļøĀ Combat encounters and optional side quests

šŸ“Before You Begin

Otherworld Chronicles emphasizes narrative and puzzle-solving over fast-paced action or combat.

If you are seeking quick reflex challenges or constant rewards, this may not be the right experience for you.
If you enjoy uncovering hidden histories and immersing yourself in a carefully constructed world, this journey may be worth taking.
