Akai Noroi

Akai Noroi is a horror game inspired by Asian and Japanese folklore. You play as Akio, a 39-year-old man struggling with addiction who has recently lost his job as a sales representative for Tanjo Industries. After returning to his apartment in Tokyo one evening, unforeseen events pull him into a nightmarish world.

Story

You explore abandoned sleeping quarters and investigate the past of their residents. An ancient yurei curse and the mysterious disappearance of all the previous residents lead you to uncover the truth about yourself. The story revolves around three endings, with player choices determining which new areas become available.

Investigation and survival

The game combines psychological and survival horror with stealth mechanics, character progression and visual storytelling. You investigate through journals and the environment, while a dynamic paranormal event system and horrifying AI shape an unpredictable atmosphere. The environment changes the longer you remain in it, and the HUD includes objectives and events.

Candles and a flashlight provide light as you explore the otherworldly environment.
