About the Game

David Lagani is just an ordinary Filipino worker trying to get by. But when news spreads of a figure breaking into homes and making people disappear, his routine turns to dread.

Every night feels longer. Every sound feels closer. And all David can do is pray the footsteps don’t stop at his door.

Taguan comes from the Filipino word Tago, which means to hide. In English, it can translate to Hiding and is also the term used for the childhood game Hide and Seek.

ESTIMATED PLAYTIME: 1 HOUR+

  • Slow-Burn Filipino Societal Horror

  • Psychological Horror Elements

  • Interactive Fiction–Driven Narrative

  • Walking Simulator–Style Gameplay

  • Low-Poly, Semi-Realistic Visuals

  • Unsettling, Oppressive Atmosphere

  • Walking Simulator Experience

  • Full Filipino Voice-Overs

  • Gore and Violence

NOTE:  This Filipino horror game is personally developed and designed to be experienced in a single sitting, completely independent from my other projects.

It is a narrative-focused, slow-burn psychological experience, prioritizing atmosphere, storytelling, and societal themes over traditional action or survival-horror mechanics.
