About

▪︎ Details

  • The eerie "Daruma Island" ▪︎ Areas
  1. Shore of Drifting Location: A dark coast scattered with rusted shipwrecks and debris. Atmosphere: Silence broken only by the sound of waves. This is where everyone washed ashore.
  2. Desolate Approach Location: Moss-covered stone paths lined with headless Jizo statues at regular intervals. Atmosphere: Thick fog rolls in, obscuring all vision.
  3. Ruined Village Location: A central district of dilapidated wooden houses. It is wise to search the detached house away from the main street thoroughly. Atmosphere: An area where house shadows and collapsed roofs can be used as cover. However, stepping on rotten floorboards will trigger an environmental trap—a loud creak that forcibly draws the Daruma's attention.
  4. Schoolhouse of the Cursed Child Location: A wooden abandoned school built in the early Showa era. Atmosphere: The stage is set in narrow, poorly lit corridors and classrooms.
  5. Marshland Torii Gates Location: A muddy wetland where countless torii gates with peeling red paint overlap. Atmosphere: A dangerous route where poor footing slows movement speed. Cautious movement is required.
  6. Main Hall of the Daruma Location: A massive wooden shrine. A stone statue of the Slaughter Daruma sits in the center. Atmosphere: The source of the curse and the stronghold of the Slaughter Daruma. The encounter rate for the Daruma is highest here.
