About This Game

This forest, located on the edge of the city, is rarely visited throughout the year, with only a few daring hikers occasionally venturing in. When the police arrived at the scene, they were met with a shocking sight: the bodies of seven members of a spiritual group, sitting or lying, scattered in different corners of the forest. They were dressed in uniform white robes, stained with dirt and fallen leaves. There were no signs of struggle at the scene, nor any suspicious items. The forensic doctor carefully examined each body and found that their skin had an unnatural pallor, but no external injuries. The results of the toxicology tests were also perplexing, with all indicators showing normal. The cause of death of these seven people became a mystery.

Eight people entered the forest together, seven died mysteriously, and one disappeared mysteriously. Some speculate that this may have been a carefully planned mass suicide, with the missing person being the executor of this "ritual." Others believe it was a murder, with the missing person being the only witness, and the silence of the family members being to protect him, or to protect their shared secret. Eight people participated in the spiritual practice at that time, one of whom disappeared. Interestingly, all the families of the deceased chose not to pursue the murderer, and the case became an unsolved mystery at that time.

Is the missing person the only survivor, or the mastermind? The police tried to find a breakthrough from the families of the deceased, but found that they seemed to have reached some kind of tacit agreement, collectively maintaining silence. Their attitude was unusually cold, even revealing a strange calmness, as if they had expected all of this to happen. All signs indicate that there may be deeper secrets hidden behind this case.

Players will play one of the eight spiritual members, experiencing this bizarre mass death event firsthand. Through the first-person perspective, collect clues, solve puzzles, and use the "reasoning" system to gradually uncover the truth hidden under the layers of fog.
