Although the Developer is inactive."for understandable reasons" this game is freaking awesome i love the concept and cant wait for more cryptids/updates.

Oct. 2024

As paranormal investigators, you'll explore eerie environments, uncovering the truth behind legends and urban myths while dodging terrifying creatures. You'll need wit and resourcefulness to survive encounters with a Wendigo, and Strigois, with plans for a Mothman creature to be added. The game's updates and development are currently on hold due to financial constraints, its existing content still offers a few hours of immersive gameplay. Despite this setback, Folklore Hunter remains a fun experience for horror and folklore fans. Play with friends to have even more fun.
