KUROMAKU
A VHS-style psychological thriller inspired by Fears to Fathom and Chilla’s Art. Ordinary routines become your only defense against a creeping, unseen horror in this slow-burn 1990s-inspired thriller.
Kuromaku is a narrative-focused first-person horror experience built around isolation, domestic realism, and psychological tension. Rather than relying on constant spectacle, the game draws fear from silence, subtle environmental shifts, and the growing feeling that something inside the house is watching.
