How it feels

You slowly creep through a realistic haunted house, straining to hear ghosts and using a camera to exorcise them, with punishing difficulty rewarding careful observation.

What players say

Players describe Onryo as a slow-burn Japanese horror game that leans on atmosphere and exploration rather than jump scares. It has a fixed-camera, puzzle-heavy structure that some compare to Resident Evil, though it is repetitive at times. The final boss is notably difficult. An early bug where a ghost stayed in the safe zone was reported, and a save system was added later.
