Japanese indie game production team Chilla's Art recently announced that their latest horror game in the works, " The Night Way Home," will be released on August 7, 2021.
Although details are still unknown, the game is a survivor horror game about a girl's attempt to return home safely amidst the presence of a grudge in the town. There are two aspects of the film that particularly caught my attention, so let's take a look at them.
Chilla's Art is also a member of "Patreon," an overseas creator support service, which allows supporters to get the latest information about the game and the beta version before the general public. Let's support Chilla's Art together!

Third-person perspective is also available in this title!
In the past, many of the films were in the first-person perspective, so you could be surprised when you met someone in a hallway in " Aka Manto " or immerse yourself in the story and atmosphere in " The Convenience Store" or "The Night Shift ". However, this game supports both first person and third person, and the third person viewpoint is likely to provide a new level of frightening experience. If it is possible for players to switch perspectives themselves, I will definitely play more than one week to enjoy the different perspectives.
Could it be a strength gauge?
In the image above, we can see that there is something like a strength gauge. I remember that there were various gauges in the past, but there was no such gauge that could be checked at any time, even though you could check your physical strength on the status screen.
Since Chilla's Art's survivor horror games have gradually become more and more battle-oriented, I expect that this title will not only be a boss battle like " Onryo " or "Hanako " but also a game in which the player fights to solve puzzles and escape from the game. I predict that it will be a game in which the player fights to solve riddles and escape.
Release in a few days!
I have already played "Red Cloak," "Snow Woman," and "The Grudge," three thrill-packed games also released by Chilla's Art, and I really liked them because they were very challenging. I expect "The Way Home" to be even more fun than that, and I'm very much looking forward to it.
What is the price of the game?
The price has not yet been determined, but all of the previous games can be played for as low as 500 yen, and we expect the price of this game to be around the same level.
