RPG Gamers summary

World of Horror is a roguelite cosmic horror RPG set in the small town of Shiokawa, Japan, where the Old Gods are reawakening and the world is spiraling into madness. Players must confront the terror reigning over the apocalypse through turn-based combat and unforgiving choices. Players can invoke dark rituals, uncover disturbing clues, and solve puzzles across multiple randomized mysteries. The game features five unique characters and over 10 mysteries to solve in Early Access, each with multiple endings. The game’s terrors are articulated by acclaimed wordsmith Cassandra Khaw and the haunting chiptune soundtrack is accentuated by the stark 1-bit art style, drawn 100% in MS Paint.
