A lo-fi pixel fable where you wander a peaceful yet gloomy village, chat with odd villagers, and uncover a bittersweet secret with a gentle, casual pace.

What players say

Players consistently describe Haru to Shura as a short, emotional sidescrolling adventure with very little interactivity, closer to a visual novel. The melancholy story about life and death in a liminal afterlife has multiple endings and a creepy-cozy atmosphere. Reviewers frequently note that despite appearances and character dynamics, the game is not a BL romance.
