GAMEPLAY:
GESTALT: The Fifth Day is set entirely within a haunted house, which acts as Wicke's home. Inherited from an old dead woman she hardly knew, you play as Wicke, navigating house's everyday oddities and horrors while trying to balance it all with her day job and her deteriorating mental health. You will face many strange scenarios that you must overcome using your wits, pattern-recognition, and navigational skills as you steadily grow familiar with the strange house the more you are forced to live in it.
The game takes place over the course of five days spent within the house. During each day, both success and failure both progress the story, meaning you've got one chance per day to try and lead a normal life. The goal of the game is to simply help Wicke survive the strange horrors within, and get through the fifth day.
STORY:
Wickeina 'Wicke' Gestalt lives in a haunted house.
It can be difficult to find happiness when toiling away at your full time job. Combine that with a house full of entities and strange phenomenon that all seem to work against her, and it's clear that Wicke is stuck in a difficult circumstance. Inheriting the house from a dead, old woman that she hardly even knew, Wicke has lived in the house for some time now, trying to strike a balance between the hours toiled away by her job, and the strange horrors of the house. She is at her wit's end. The cannot keep living a life without control. During these five days within the house, what may be an ordinary week of lost autonomy and horror may just be her last chance to regain control of her life and overcome the decline of her mental state.
All will be decided on the inevitable fifth day.

That game is...GESTALT: MemoriaThe game still follows Wickeina "Wicke" Gestalt, taking place roughly one year after the events of GESTALT: The Fifth Day (after Ending II + Another Day DLC story). This time, rather than dealing with the day-to-day events in her haunted home, Wicke meets a very dangerous entity that threatens both her safety and her mental state, stalking her through various locations. In order to deal with this new monstrous phenomenon, Wicke is faced with her past, and must ultimately decide to endure it or bury it for good.The game is in development! Currently, Keepers of the Keep is still the priority under KINJAKO, and will be released before GESTALT: Memoria. However, once Keepers of the Keep is released and launched in full, full development of GESTALT: Memoria will then begin! But don't worry, you won't have to wait long to experience what this sequel story will have to offer...Because you can play the demo today.That's right! GESTALT: Memoria's prologue demo is available on Steam RIGHT NOW, and is available to be wishlisted today!

《GESTALT: The Fifth Day》First Anniversary! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44740738/3175385a4a279b54f58741b8e82ffe29a20be56f.png Hey y'all! It's been one year, five updates, an expansion, and a DLC later, and we're already at the 1 year mark since GESTALT: The Fifth Day first released! This game means a great deal to me as my first release on Steam, as well as the start of KINJAKO, and is a narrative very near and dear to my heart. I'd like to thank all players, all Youtubers, and all streamers for playing the game, showing it to others, giving your feedback, and supporting this game for the last year! It has been incredible to see, and I couldn't be happier with this game and it's reception. Please continue to support GESTALT, as well as my future projects as a game developer. I'm hoping you'll all see new stuff for Wicke soon, but for now, Happy 1-Year Anniversary to GESTALT: The Fifth Day!🎉 - KINJA Play GESTALT: The Fifth Day Now!: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2616720 https://store.steampowered.com/app/3296460/GESTALT_The_Fifth_Day__Another_Day_DLC/ Support the Team! ☆ KINJA on BLUESKY ☆ KINJAKO on BLUESKY Support the Publisher! https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/43921064/b0b6f9f1a1e711f2adcbb8c3625b5a49df36ac0a.gif 072Project Twitter 072Project DiscordRead full article on Community Announcements (Kinja)Patch NotesOfficial
Micro Update! (UPDATE #5)
《GESTALT: The Fifth Day》Micro Update (UPDATE 5)! Hey y'all! We've got a small update for y'all, that mostly affects the Another Day DLC! Here's the list of minor fixes: The asset for the "A Life Worth Living" achievement has been corrected. A flag that tracks the bad ending to the BUTCHER ending and the RITUAL scenario has been correctly added into the game. This missing flag made it impossible to achieve the "Such a Miserable Life" achievement, which is now possible to achieve. In the free-play version of The Last Dungeon, some data was incorrectly input when obtaining the Creature Eggs item. The data has been corrected, and now works properly. Some data within the DUNGEON scenario has been cleaned up involving The Last Dungeon mini game. There were no reported problems with this section, however, cleaning up the data here has made parts of the game-within-a-game run a little smoother. Thanks for playing GESTALT so far, and to the players for making these issues known! - KINJA Play GESTALT: The Fifth Day Now!: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2616720 https://store.steampowered.com/app/3296460/GESTALT_The_Fifth_Day__Another_Day_DLC/ Support the Team! ☆ KINJA on BLUESKY ☆ KINJAKO on BLUESKY https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/43921064/b0b6f9f1a1e711f2adcbb8c3625b5a49df36ac0a.gif 072Project Twitter 072Project DiscordRead full article on Community Announcements (Kinja)Patch NotesOfficial
Micro Update! (UPDATE #4)
《GESTALT: The Fifth Day》Micro Update (UPDATE 4)! Hey y'all! A small update post-DLC for y'all! A bug was found internally that prevented progress in the RATS and PLANTS scenario involving the work bench, not allowing you to actually mix the items you needed (a player seems to have found it too!). This has been corrected, and now you're free to mix away! Hope this makes playing through GESTALT a little smoother, especially to the new players who picked up the game during Halloween season.
