GAEKGWI

The road home is the road of ghosts

I set off for home at dusk. An hour's walk, a road I'd taken for more than twenty years.

I've been walking for three hours, and I'm still inside the village.

Gaekgwi is a first-person horror game about escaping an old village haunted by ghosts from Korean folklore.

■ Ghosts from Korean folklore

Ghosts roam the village, each hunting in its own way.

Learning what sees you, and what hears you, is how you survive.

■ You cannot fight

Stay low, save your lantern oil, and shut the doors behind you.

The old things left in the village may give you one more chance.

■ Records left behind

Those who wandered this road before you left their records behind.

The more fragments you gather, the closer you come to the truth of this village.

■ A village woven anew

The alleys and houses connect differently every time you enter.

There is no set path. Listen closely, or you will lose your way.
