About This Game

散歩 Walk – A Folkloric Horror Journey Through Empty Streets

散歩 Walk is a lo-fi survival horror game where you play as a young girl lost in a world that resembles ours, but is eerily silent and devoid of people. Pursued by strange, terrifying monsters, she must hide and survive as she journeys home through nightmarish neighborhoods.

The girl’s only hope lies in distinguishing unlikely friends from foes, seeking protection from gods long forgotten, and carving a path through haunted, liminal Japan. The game blends stealth, fixed-camera tension, and classic survival horror gameplay with PS1-era visual style and deep atmosphere.

What Is 散歩 Walk?

At its heart, 散歩 Walk is a survival horror game about tension, silence, connections, and ritual.

You play as a little girl who finds herself alone in an abandoned world—a quiet, haunted version of Japan. The streets are empty. The lights flicker. Vending machines hum in the distance. And something is watching.

There’s no combat. To reach safety, you need to use logic, hide in the dark, and choose your path carefully to avoid being detected by entities drawn from folklore and the unknown.

Save your progress at key shrines and temples.
Cleanse haunted areas, unlocking new paths or shortcuts.
Create safety zones that can help you survive the journey home.

Your resources are limited, and danger lurks behind you like a shadow. Do you take the risk of making yourself known to someone who might eat you as likely as to ward off your stalkers?

 The Deeper You Go, The Stranger It Gets

In 散歩 Walk, death isn’t a restart, it’s a descent.

Every time the girl is caught, she continues from the same place, but the world is no longer the same. The atmosphere darkens, and the path changes.
The spirits draw closer, her mind frays.

Your goal is to help her get home.
But every failure makes that goal harder.
The fewer times you're caught, the greater her chance of escaping.
If you can't protect her, she will remember.
This is horror that evolves, not resets.

 A World That Remembers

Death doesn’t reset progress—but it changes the world in strange, subtle, and increasingly dark ways.

散歩 Walk is a love letter to classic survival horror, reimagined through a folkloric lens.

If you're ready to step into a world where every shadow hides a secret, and every silence speaks volumes, then prepare to take a walk you'll never forget.
