Game Intro
Familiar alleys transform into a mysterious maze.
Players must distinguish between supernatural “Gwiheun” that can’t exist in reality and “Heokkaebi”
that can appear in the real world, while attempting to escape.
Use a bracelet to track ghostly traces, gather clues, and obtain the key to unlock your way out.
