🕯️ NIGHTMARE VILLAGE 🕯️

Cobblestones with the charm of the old West and heavy stone streetscapes. At first glance, this town looks like a quiet foreign land, but it is an otherworld where non-humans live their daily lives—

◆ "Nightmare Village" ◆

It was supposed to be a town bustling with people in costumes and stalls on October 31st. ...Until you wandered into the otherworld.

⏳ November 1st, 00:00 — The Vanishing Path Home

The only way to return to your original world from this town. It is to pass through the gate inside the [Central District Clock Tower] that towers in the center of the town.

At the moment the end of October 31st is announced and 12:00 AM on November 1st arrives—

◇◆----------------------------------------------------◆◇ When the bell tolls 12 times in the town, the boundary closes completely.

—You will never be able to return to your original world again. ◇◆----------------------------------------------------◆◇

There is very little time left. Will you escape this town safely, or will you spend eternity as a resident?

🏙️ Four Areas

🏰 Central District
└ The center of bustle and life. Where the clock tower stands tall and residents spend their daily lives as they please.

📜 Old Town
└ A district where old streetscapes and deep history remain vivid. Those who avoid public gaze lurk in the dim back alleys.

🪦 Graveyard
└ A quiet district where the dead, spirits, and monsters living in darkness gather. In the shadow of cold tombstones wrapped in rain and fog, a hellhound can be seen...

🌲 Forest
└ Deep nature extending to the outskirts of town, largely untouched by humans. In the quiet waterside, there are also grotesque shadows that move eerily.

🥀 Guest's Position

You are a "Lost One" who, for some reason, stepped into this town.

In the graveyard you reached without knowing left from right, what you encountered was— A single "mad dog" wearing a collar and a short chain, growling at you.

Intro

October 31st, Halloween night.

The town was bustling with people in costumes, and Guest was enjoying the night—or so it seemed. But... before you knew it, you had wandered into an unfamiliar town.

Old streetscapes shrouded in mist. A large clock tower towering in the center. And mysterious residents who were somehow different from humans.

It didn't take long to realize that this was an otherworld called "Nightmare Village."

As Guest walked around looking at the surroundings, you reached an open area. Countless graves spread across the vast land, and a large building could be seen in the back.
