About this game
Yongcheon High School, Turned into a Labyrinth
At the prestigious Yongcheon High School, an old ghost story has been whispered for decades.
They say that at midnight on a full moon, the cries of schoolgirls echo from the sealed occult club room in the basement.
Driven by curiosity, four students performed a forbidden ritual and awakened the sealed spirits, plunging the school into a labyrinth of ghosts.
Now, you must fight through this endless midnight self-study, facing the spirits that haunt the school.
Talismans That Pierce Spirits
The girls have inherited shamanic power, allowing them to wield talismans. Fire projectiles that ricochet off walls and objects to strike talismans in a unique combat system, and banish the spirits that block your path.
Talismans & Relics: Endless Deckbuilding
Each cleared battle rewards you with forbidden talismans. Combine talismans and mysterious relics to forge a cursed deck. With the school changing every run, your choices will decide whether you survive.
Four Distinct Students
Haneul (Archery Club)
Sumi (Kendo Club)
Arin (Chemistry Club)
Mirae (Track & Field)
Each character wields a unique weapon and fighting style, offering different tactical approaches to match your playstyle.
Folklore and School Ghost Stories
The enemies are more than simple spirits. Ghosts from Korean school ghost stories and traditional folklore manifest into reality. In dark classrooms, endless corridors, and sealed chambers, you will face beings once thought to exist only in legend.
Early Access
Three main chapters to explore
Over 100 talismans and relics to build your deck
Four unique characters with distinct weapon styles
A labyrinthine school structure that changes every run, with spirits that grow stronger over time
