About

In Taiwan, early 1954, an orphan was taken in by a temple. Upon overhearing of his past, he set out in the darkness of night on a "fantastic journey" to find his relatives.
Inspired by a true story, PAGUI comprises historic background, religious culture and folk culture unique to Taiwan; from the recreation of historic architecture to religious practices, and from folk lore to supernatural culture, in a beautiful and immersive 3D atmospheric environment, where you will explore the eerie haunted village, sneak past power spirits, learn skills to fight off ghosts, and dig up the secrets about your own story as well as to uncover the buried history of the haunted village.

Immerse yourself in a rich 3D action-adventure game with 3D third-person gameplay. Players will arm themselves as they traverse the thrilling atmosphere of a ghost town.
Experience 3v1 asymmetrical multiplayer action. Choose your path: play as the righteous Exorcists to banish evil, or unleash your fury as the burgeoning Malevolent.

游戏动画非常好看,剧情演绎出色,内容非常深刻,游戏本体部分有很大提升空间! 推荐给喜欢民俗以及动作游戏的玩家!
Cool Game dynamics Awesome graphics (i have an nvidia geforce gtx 970 from 2014 and it is not enough to run the game at full video power) Funny dialogues in english (but you will need to understand taiwanese and taiwan if you wanna get all the funny parts)
来了来了,玩了怎么多游戏,头一回见游戏冷门到没有人做修改器,第2章的鬼婆和她的小鬼实在是太难打了,想在网上找一个修改器先过渡一下没想到找了将近3小时硬是一个也没有,如果不是这个BOOS太难了,我也不会去找修改器,而且游戏里面也没有可以稍微降低点游戏难度的设置,能不能考虑一下我们这些手残党游戏技术不好的人群,让我卡在了那一直过不去,结果放在了仓库吃灰,今天心血来潮打开了想看一下能不能过,结果还是过不去,这个鬼婆的设定也太恶心了吧,小鬼一直帮他硬控,只要控到了就原地罚站太烦了,如果能降低一点BOOS难度就好了游戏做的还是不错的,恐怖风格也是我的菜只可惜BOOS难度太高了只能卡关了,游戏做的不错卡关了也是我的问题,希望制作组能优化一下 (~ ̄▽ ̄)~加油
Pagui is really an unexpected hidden gem. Set in 1950s Taiwan, where the true historical violence mixed with the folkloric horror, the game is an action-horror following the story of a child exorcist looking for his parents. The setting is incredible, with great attention to details, creating a believable 1950s Taiwan. The silent buildings and the items scattered around underline the tragedy that happened, with meticulous attention to tell a story without using words. The plot is simple but interesting, with a couple of very moving moments, especially the secret ending. The traditional elements are also very well integrated, especially in the rituals and the items. While the generic ghosts are not that special in terms of design, the bosses are really creepy and well designed. The graphic helps a lot to portray a believable world, especially in the cut-scenes, which are always incredibly well done, no matter if they are creepy, cryptic, or action-oriented. The music also mixes traditional sounds with more rock vibes, creating an interesting fusion. The gameplay is a mix of stealth and pure action. There are immortal ghosts that should be avoided, while the other enemies can be easily killed with melee combos or powerful enchantments. The boss battles are a different topic, both creepy and quite challenging. The exploration is a peculiar landmark of this title, since medium-size areas of the city can be freely explored while searching for secrets challenges or collectibles, from the streets up to the rooftops. The game is not very long, but with 2 different endings, several interesting achievements to obtain, and a secret challenge arena, there will be a lot to keep the player busy. Plus the authors said that will release also a multiplayer mode, where the players could play using or god-like traditional heroes, or mischievous necromancers.

台湾民俗恐怖真是太刁了,剧情也是十分感人推推推
This game caught my eye due to the cultural and historical references to Taiwan's past, so I thought I'd give it a try. I wasn't disappointed. I found the graphics to be stunning and the developers did a good job creating a mysterious and spooky atmosphere, playing on many of the cultural traditions of Taiwan to enhance the experience. Personally I prefer to play this using a controller versus a keyboard. However, I found it difficult at times to keep Huo-Wang facing his antagonists when fighting in close quarters. If you allow yourself to be surrounded by many attacking ghosts/spirits, Huo-Wang can't immediately move or attack, which is frustrating since you are hitting buttons but nothing is happening. I learned early on that keeping your distance and running away from ghosts/spirits is an effective strategy as opposed to standing your ground. I think the developers did a reasonably good job with the English subtitles and I agree with others who have said that the experience is better if you understand Taiwanese, which unfortunately I do not. This became especially apparent in the 2nd ending where I believe the English subtitles need some tweaking. Overall, I enjoyed this game and would recommend it to others.
劇情感人.有點像恐怖遊戲.實際上跟美心一樣也是家庭為主的故事.令我想起一句話.你看到的鬼.其實也是別人的親人.然後全程是台語配音我也是挺喜歡.
多人模式根本匹配不到人,搞这些花里胡哨的有什么用。
This is the first and best game I have played so far. At first may be so fun but then, the more you played the more will find some sad and heart-touching stories especially this boy, Li huowang's background story.
太der了 不适合我这种手残党 每次打BOSS死一万次 ,打两三小时的BOSS都打不动,能不能换个特别简单模式 ???对我这种不适合战斗类游戏又想体验恐游的玩家一点不友好,我打寂静岭F都没有觉得这么痛苦,而且人物捏的很死板,表情很僵硬,不值得这个价钱真的
