Latin Shadows: The Visitor

Latin Shadows: The Visitor is a horror game set in Paraguay, with visuals inspired by the PlayStation 1 era and creatures and stories drawn from Guaraní folklore and Paraguayan legends. What begins as an ordinary night grows increasingly strange. Explore locations, talk to characters, uncover secrets and make choices that can change how the night unfolds. A first playthrough takes about 30 minutes; discovering all endings and additional content takes about 2–2.5 hours.

Explore and make choices

You can play in first person or use fixed camera angles for a more classic, cinematic perspective. There is no single path forward: some choices are clear, while others depend on exploring, paying attention to your surroundings, talking to characters, finding items or discovering unconventional ways to progress. Notes, books and objects you can inspect reveal more about the characters, creatures and world.

Activities and encounters

At a lagoon, you can fish using a system in which you keep your catch under control as the fish tries to escape. Different fish may help you progress, and you can also try to catch something special. Elsewhere, you prepare drinks in a musical rhythm minigame, fight with a machete and navigate dangerous sections by dodging obstacles and projectiles. Some of these mechanics appear on optional paths that may lead to otherwise undiscovered endings.

Myths Hunter

The Jolystation 2 is a console you can find within the game. It lets you play Myths Hunter, a complete game with visuals inspired by the PlayStation 2 era, as well as its own cutscenes, environments and combat system. Armed with a machete, you attack and block while facing creatures from Paraguayan mythology and legends, including Jasy Jatere, Luisón and Malavisión. Learning to fight in Myths Hunter may also prove useful outside it.

Discover the endings

Your choices, actions and discoveries determine which of the 11 endings you reach, including 2 secret endings. Some endings come from making different choices; others require investigation, experimentation with the mechanics, attention to small details or finding secrets in the environments.

Each ending you unlock adds a trophy to the protagonist’s room, a separate area where you can see which endings you have found. Unlocking endings also reveals sections of a decision tree, which shows paths you have discovered and offers hints about choices, actions or events you have yet to encounter without giving away every answer.
