    • Plot

      A group of college students decided to take a trip to a place called the Tsukuyomi Ravine, where people used to sacrifice to the gods. There are five main characters in this game, which the game encourages the player to rename them with the names of his/her friends: Black, Blue, Yellow, Pink and Red.

      Black invited group to the ravine and his father owns the mansion which they're staying. Red is the leader of group and he is strong-tempered. He started the whole mess with statement "Let's test our courage". Blue is kind and he has strong sense of justice. Yellow has pure heart - she is kind, well raised and nice to people. Pink states her opinions clearly and make sure everyone hears them. Also, mysterious young girl comes along the game and she seems to get along with Yellow. An extra character, "You", is playable in the epilogue of the story.

      Gameplay

      The Wii Remote is used as the flashlight. The Nunchuk and Wii Balance Board are also used for certain elements in the game. In the game, Black, Blue, Yellow, and "You" are playable. Much of the gameplay involves searching the mansion and being attacked by different ghouls. Fighting is no use, so running away is the only option in this game.

      From what I can read it's the type of game where you can't defend yourself, and instead have to creep around and find ways to bypass enemies, effectively reminding me of good old Amnesia. I think it looks great! There seems to be an English Patch coming, which would help get the plot and all that.
