PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The tune of Japanese taiko drums and the dark aria of children are heard every night. Residents wander like ghosts, and hungry demons creep in the darkness.

The Heian (794-1192) period of ancient Japan was a time of great mysticism and magic. Set during this time period is a teenage girl who has wandered into a dark and gruesome castle, where mutated creatures and unimaginable horrors await. Together with multiple playable characters - exorcists ("Onmyoji") sent by their master to uncover the castle's mysteries - the young girl must master the powers of exorcism and Heian-period weaponry to survive the nightmarish world of psychological horrors.

PRODUCT Features

KUON is based on an ancient type of Japanese horror story (Kwaidan). It beckons gamers to a dark and gruesome castle in the Japanese town of Kyoto where mutated creatures and unimaginable horrors await the multiple playable characters.

When the story starts, players can choose to play:
“Chapter of Shadow” as Utuski, a teenage girl in search of her father, Doman - the local exorcist (Onmyoji) - who was sent to the castle with a few of his followers to investigate strange occurrences.
“Chapter of Light” as Sakuya, one of Doman's followers. After finishing both chapters, the “Chapter of Kuon” begins and the real horrific truth can be discovered as players assume the role of a master Onmyoji.

KUON's unsettling storyline and haunting moral connotations are achieved through gory visuals and vivid imagery, yet it also possesses the artistic and cultural beauty of classical ornaments and the famous kimono form of dress.

Stave off the attacks of grotesque monsters in real-time 3D with Heian-period weaponry and the exorcism art of Onmyojitsu.

Learn new spells from scrolls found throughout the castle that allow players to cast magic and summon over a dozen different creatures to do their bidding.

Uncovering the disturbing plot, one twist at a time, relies on players' quick reflexes, ability to solve challenging puzzles, mini-games and a sturdy will to stand up to the nightmarish world of unimaginable psychological horrors.
