■ About This Game

"Kazuko" is a retro-style 2D Japanese horror adventure game set in an eerie, pitch-black mansion wrapped in silence.

Unravel the mysteries and puzzles hidden within the estate, evade the creeping terror, and fight to make your escape.

■ Story

Your car suddenly breaks down on an isolated mountain path.

Seeking help, you stumble into a foreboding mansion shrouded in darkness.

There is no sign of life, and the door slams shut behind you—locking you in.

In the eerie silence, an unsettling presence lingers, accompanied by a cryptic note left behind:

"Now, let us play a game. Take the candle."

A creeping dread, followed by the approaching footsteps of "Kazuko."

Will you survive and escape this nightmare alive?
