NOROI KAGO: the Grudged Domain is a survival co-op horror game based around the theme of yokai. These are supernatural beings which stem from traditional Japanese folklore. The game allows for co-operative play for up to four players where the aim is to escape from an enclosed space in which yokai roam.

Key Gameplay Features

• Inspired by the chilling atmosphere of Japanese horror films – the game has a unique art style, crafted to showcase the strong contrast between light and shadow
• Much of the game and yokai are derived from Shigeru Mizuki, the original author of the manga “GeGeGe no Kitaro”
• Beyond yokai, players will be inflicted by a curse, which gradually eats away at their bodies before turning them into half-demons. To break free from this curse, cooperation will be key.
• Map items and gimmicks to help you escape the realm, will be placed in a different location with each play allowing for unique experiences
• *All images are in-development and are subject to change.
