Overview

• El Imparcial rates the game 9/10, calling it both an homage and a reinvention with multiple endings.
• The story takes place in 1960 in the fictional Japanese town of Ebisugaoka and follows protagonist Hinako Shimizu.
• Series staples return with fog, challenging puzzles, and grotesque creatures alongside a stamina bar, a cordura gauge that slows time for critical hits, weapon durability, and faster movement.
• Save points are small shrines that accept item offerings and award a resource called fe for accessories, and players can adjust difficulty before starting.
• The review praises expressive visuals, disturbing monster design, and unsettling ambient audio, while criticizing the stamina mechanic as arbitrary and noting occasional sluggish movement.
