Fun, short horror game you can finish in under 4 hours. The game doesn't really have jumpscares and relies more on the overall atmosphere to create tension. Because of this, it's not the scariest game. However, this is made up for by the story. The game employs a nonlinear narrative which includes the player taking control of multiple characters. If you're familiar with Chinese beliefs and horror, you'll likely see a lot of the twists coming early, although it doesn't really ruin the story. I'd say it was a bit convoluted and it took a bit of time to match the names with all the characters, so I honestly recommend drawing a simple family tree as it makes the story much easier to understand. The game feels a bit front-heavy, as in most of the exposition is in the first few chapters, and the rest serve to address the questions raised, kind of like how question and answer arcs work in other visual novels. The story feels a bit convoluted at times unless you have some knowledge of Chinese history, culture, or horror, but if you play the entire story there shouldn't be anything impeding understanding. There are some translation errors, especially near the end of the game. They didn't break immersion for me, possibly because I play many games in translation, although I can see why they might for you. The puzzles aren't anything too complicated and you'll find the classic pipe and sliding puzzles, although they're interesting enough to not be a nuisance. The art style and music create a specific type of style which I'm not really sure how to describe, but it works well with supernatural aspect of the game. I would say it's a good introduction to this type of game if you've never played something like it before.

This game is so good. I love the graphics and the story line. The nostalgia hit so hard too with the songs. Genuinely got me tearing up and sobbing.

A fantastic chinese horror game dealing with spirituality but still being very grounded in reality. Your main character is one who's susceptible to viewing the spiritual world as sort-of a sightseer and you use it to find clues and tie up the story of this complex murder case and the consequences that follow. The soundtrack is a huge hit for me and merges simple rhythms into eerie complex undertones that make for a great "visual novel" esque experience. If you were looking for a puzzle game, you could be disappointed but if you were looking for a story horror game, you might be pleasantly surprised by this game!
