About
Halu - The Fish is a psychological horror game about a young girl, Hana, living with her strict mother, where her only source of comfort is a small fish in an aquarium.
What begins as something quiet and familiar slowly grows into something far more disturbing. The house remains unchanged. The routines continue as normal. But her attachment to that small fish deepens into something she can no longer understand or escape from.
This is a story about obsession and emotional dependency. About how comfort can quietly turn into something consuming when everything else feels out of reach. And about a family history buried so deeply that it has become part of everyday life.
Horror here is not only built on jumpscares, It is also built on atmosphere, unsettling soundscapes, and the weight of ordinary moments that slowly stop feeling ordinary.

From my perspective, having completed this game and unlocked all its achievements, the storyline ties in really well with your first horror game, and I loved all the endings and the supernatural plot of this Indonesian horror game. Here is my playthrough: https://www.youtube.com/live/ESdYjTDfSq8?si=USthfsgWdYYZGiXb
재밌게 했어요 칠라스 감성인데 대사가 많음 공포지수 10점 만점에 3점 정도 무섭진 않았어여 엔딩은 총 2개 한가지 아쉬운것 진엔딩 루트 너무 어려움 스트레스구간임!!!
Full Playthrough All Endings + All Collectible https://youtu.be/LXgIVQnBiYs I love this Indonesian horror game. The atmosphere really gloomy and sad. Gameplay : really nice. not just a cheap walking simulator game, there is some boss fight here. the control movements are really good, very responsives. Graphic : I really love it. Looks realistic and nice and well optimized even tho I set it Max. Sound : No cheap sound jumpscare and the Background Music on the True Ending made me feels sad. Story : some plot twist here. especially on the post credit, there are some characters from other game, maybe they are in the same universe? Keep up the good work!
10/10!!!! LOP THE LAUNDRY, SUPERMARKET & MANCING SIMULATORR
100% Recommended! I've been following Hwaye's games since HALU: The Fracture, and the improvement in HALU: The Fish is honestly amazing. Everything feels so much more polished, the graphics, the sound design, the storytelling, and the overall atmosphere. It feels much more immersive and real. The story kept me hooked from beginning to end. The plot twist genuinely caught me off guard, and now I'm even more curious about the mysterious person who keeps appearing throughout the game. I seriously can't wait for Hwaye's next game! This game completely exceeded my expectations. The way the story is told is fantastic, and the emotional pacing is so well done. One moment I was laughing, then getting mad, then feeling sad. It really took me on an emotional roller coaster. Also... the gameplay mechanics almost made me cry! but that's just my skill issue. 😂 And I have to mention that hanging kid... I laughed so hard (ga ekspek weh). 😭 Hwaye never disappoints. Congratulations on another incredible game, and thank you for creating such a memorable experience. Can't wait for the next one! ❤️
Just finished getting 100% achievements because I'm way too competitive.. wkwk.. I went in expecting a cute indie game, but I ended up getting way more emotionally invested than I thought I would lol, well the game really nails the storytelling, it's surprisingly deep and emotional with a plot twist I genuinely didn't see comingg :D it's honestly worth the price, not the kind of game you finish in an hour and then forget about.. The playtime feels satisfying, the puzzles and mechanics are challenging enough to keep things fun without getting annoying and everything feels really well put together.. you can tell the devs put a lot into making this game. The visuals also deserve a shoutout, i would say that the art style fits the vibe perfectly and makes the emotional moments hit even harder.. if you’re into story-driven indie games with meaningful narratives, i'd definitely recommend checking out this game :D
很好玩 剧情很多 能玩两个小时以上 两个结局 非常精彩 不玩后悔三年
