About
BrokenLore: LOW takes players on a journey filled with tension, mystery, and the supernatural, where every corner of the mist hides forgotten truths and unfathomable horrors.
Set in a remote Japanese village, Kirisame Mura (Village of the Mist), this first-person horror game delves into the dark prelude of the story narrated in BrokenLore: UNFOLLOW.
Game Objectives
- Reveal the Roots of Deep-Seated Hatred.
- Explore the circular, claustrophobic pathway structure of Kirisame Mura.
- Introduce the Game Loop Structure, symbolizing the unstoppable cycle of tragic events.
Story
Naomi Montgomery arrives at Kirisame Mura for a professional opportunity that promises to launch her music career but instead finds herself facing sinister presences and the cursed secrets of the village. Her story is a journey through time and memory, laying the groundwork for the events narrated in BrokenLore: UNFOLLOW.
The aura of mystery surrounding the village intensifies with the gradual revelation of a dark legend that haunts the town. The legend tells that, at the center of the village, there was an ancient temple, now disappeared, the scene of a tragedy that has cursed all its inhabitants.
Gameplay Mechanics
- Sinister manifestations suggest ancient forces keeping watch over the village.
- Survival requires players to hide from enemies instead of confronting them directly.
- Discovering diaries and letters provides historical and emotional context.
- Lost stories are unveiled as players navigate through the village’s winding paths.
Village Themes
Kirisame Mura is designed to be an enigma in itself, a labyrinth with no exit that symbolizes the cycle of wrong decisions and broken destinies of the protagonist. The game’s structure emphasizes this aspect with an environment that subtly repeats and changes, challenging players to find a way to break the cycle as they delve into the story. Themes of envy, ambition, and failure will be explored.
