About This Game

Table of Contents

KAKURENBO: Hide and Seek is a first-person 3D horror adventure rendered in a hand-drawn 2.5D style. You play as an elementary school student exploring an eerie abandoned building on the edge of a Japanese town.

What started as a game of hide and seek with friends takes a turn: the friends never come back, and something's presence grows stronger in the dim ruin. A short game with light puzzle-solving and four different endings.
