Here’s an overview of the new horror game, via Kodansha:
Encounter unsolved mysteries in the eerie Mt. Utaga-Yama as college student Garasu Yuki. After a strange creature assaults and kidnaps her beloved dog Chocolat, Yuki has only one lead: a slithering entity beneath the ground. To reunite with Chocolat, Yuki ventures into the dark depths of Mt. Utaga as night falls. Unveil the seemingly quiet town’s horrifying history while avoiding the monstrosities along the road.
As the story unfolds, the protagonist shifts to a young boy carrying his little sister through endless, identical corridors. Dodge the lethal attacks of a blood-soaked pursuer wielding a Japanese sword while searching for an escape route. As the clock winds down, help the boy and his sister navigate a way out for even the slimmest chance at survival.
