About This Game

A SPECIAL NOTE FROM THE DEVELOPERS

Please note: Poisoned Path is a highly focused, ~30-minute "single-sitting" cinematic experience. It is intentionally stripped of filler mechanics to deeply respect your time. Its brevity is a deliberate design choice, not a shortcoming.

As we are forced to close our studio due to financial struggles, choosing to keep this game in your library to preserve a piece of "lost media"—rather than refunding it—is the absolute greatest support you can offer our two-person indie team during these final days. Thank you for your understanding and for keeping our art alive.

About:

Can a poisonous path lead you to a new life? Can a broken bond be mended?

Perhaps the bad guys aren't as bad as you think, and the heroes aren't as good as they seem. You think you know your closest friends, but the person you know as your enemy may be your savior.

Story:

Rinako Kurosawa had no idea that the evening she wanted to surprise her family would be a night that would completely change the course of her life. An argument between her father and brother leads to the complete breakdown of her family. Her brother leaves home, and a mysterious traffic accident takes her mother and father from her.

When the authorities were helpless, she decided to risk her life and became a police detective. Unaware that this decision would turn her entire reality upside down, one morning the task assigned to her turned her newly established life into a lie:

“Infiltrate the yakuza leader's gang, gain their trust, and bring down the organization. Even if you can't bring them down, gather information and report it to the government.”

Will he emerge from the lies and darkness into the light? Or will he sink deeper into the swamp? Who knows? Would you like to find out with him?

Key Features:

Branching Storyline: Your choices fundamentally affect not only the dialogue, but also the course and ending of the game.

Multiple Endings: Experience the story again and again to discover different endings shaped by your decisions.

Atmospheric Visual Design: Carefully crafted character illustrations and environments that reflect the spirit of the game.

Deep Character Development: Interact with characters, each with their own past and motivations.

Mystery and Discovery: Find clues hidden between the lines and uncover the real truth behind Poisoned Path.

Are you ready to choose your own path? Remember, every path has an end, but some paths are poisonous.
