Kyoufu Yawa

Kyoufu Yawa is a short horror visual novel about two ghost stories told during a soccer club training camp. After lights-out, a teacher recounts inexplicable events from his past: a supernatural encounter on a mountain he visited before becoming a teacher, and a gruesome incident by the sea involving his high school friends. You read the stories as text and sound build a slow sense of dread.

The stories

At first, the teacher’s accounts seem like frightening tales. Strange details in his matter-of-fact recollections do not quite add up, raising questions about why he is telling them at the camp and what lies behind his memories. After hearing both stories, you piece together the details and make choices to uncover their meaning.

Choices and endings

The game has four endings: two normal endings, one true ending and one bad ending. A playthrough takes about one hour.
