À propos de ce jeu

A side-scrolling psychological horror where you only walk ←.

The latest entry of the “Tsugunohi” series now takes place in a Showa-retro rural Japanese town!

■ABOUT THIS GAME

With over 150 million views across related videos, Tsugunohi has become a cult phenomenon on the internet.
In Tsugunohi, the story unfolds simply by moving the protagonist to the left—a unique and minimalist style of Japanese horror.

This time, Tsugunohi -A Whisper from the Past-, set in a Showa-retro, decaying rural town, arrives on Steam as a standalone title!

The gameplay remains the same as previous Tsugunohi entries—you only move the protagonist to the left.
With no complex controls, you can fully immerse yourself in the realistic and uncanny horror crafted by ImCyan.

After clearing the game once, a hidden scenario will unlock, offering even more terrifying experiences.

For this standalone release, a special Art & Setting Archive has been added, allowing you to explore behind-the-scenes insights and expanded lore.

Experience how a young girl’s everyday life becomes slowly consumed by fear, wrapped in the eerie nostalgia of the Showa era…

■STORY

Due to her mother’s sudden work situation, a young girl from a single-parent household must return to the rundown countryside where her grandmother lives.

Accustomed to the city, she feels out of place in the quiet, aging village.

Her strange-acting grandmother, a grandfather who should be dead, an unfamiliar schoolgirl—

A series of horrors slowly creeps toward the girl…
