Description
Perhaps we have never escaped our fate.
"Xi" is a horror puzzle game set in the context of modern Chinese folklore.
The story takes place in a long-abandoned mountain mansion. This immersive escape room experience feels a bit too real, with eerie and strange elements everywhere—an empty banquet, an endless corridor, and you, who have accidentally stumbled into this haunted house. Can you really escape? Fortunately, there are others in the mansion; unfortunately, they don't seem to be human... Who is telling the truth? I can't tell, I really can't tell...
Characters
Game Features
A purchased girl is betrothed to a ghost? Is this another story of feudal remnants persecuting young girls? No, no, no, the truth this time might be simpler than you think. A neo-Chinese pixel art style recreates the eerie mansion of a wealthy family in the early Republic of China era. As a staunch materialist, I don't believe in any supernatural beings. I have strength and strength... uh... and occasionally some wisdom. No matter what, can you really calm the resentment of the ghost bride, save her soul, and make it out alive? But... who is the one that really needs saving?
Piece together the vanished past and discover a story that belongs to you.
No cliché jump scares, just pure Eastern mysticism. Feel the mysterious power of the East!!
Four endings in total, with one being the official true ending.
Each character in the game has their own agenda. Uncover the secrets behind the characters—there might be a chance to break through.
You can't rest yet; there are monster girls wandering outside (♪Legend of Chaos♪ plays here).

User Reviews
I really like this game but I can't recommend it in its current state for translation issues. I was having a smooth playthrough until I reached the chess puzzle that requires 3 numbers to progress but the words on the board were in Mandarin so I'm stuck now. I hope it's a translation issue and not me 'cause I tried my best to progress without opening that lockbox but just couldn't. Seriously tho, I legit posted a discussion asking if anyone knows the combination 'cause it drove me crazy. I tried translating the image but it didn't help; tried finding a gameplay vid that reached the puzzle but no luck. I'm really sorry for the negative review if I was supposed to do something else to progress, but I'm assuming I had to solve the lockbox.
EDIT: After completing the game I can't keep my review negative anymore. I really enjoyed playing it and the different endings. Yes, the game has translation issues but I still liked it. I still needed the help of GPT to solve the first lockbox puzzle tho... Literally just sent screenshots of the board and clues to come up with the solution. I'm too stupid to play puzzle games.
后劲儿属实有点大，现在一闭上眼，就是那个B佛像来找我索命了！
做那么好卖那么便宜看不起我？
