About

Every night feels longer. Every sound feels closer. And all David can do is pray the footsteps don’t stop at his door.
Taguan comes from the Filipino word Tago, which means to hide. In English, it can translate to Hiding and is also the term used for the childhood game Hide and Seek.

The Steam version of Taguan feels more polished with its many new features, characters, dialogues, and bug fixes. The improved atmosphere and graphics make the game more immersive, and playing it honestly felt like watching a TV series. This game is absolute cinema, and I still can’t believe it was made by a Filipino dev. I really recommend this game. You will not regret it. W game, W dev! Thank you for including me in the game. Be sure to play his other games on Itch, and I know many of his past and future games will be listed here. I’m excited to play your upcoming games!
The Atmosphere in the game kept me engaged at all times and it was on the better end of horror games I played. I actually enjoyed the story with such a great ending.
make more games. now.
Short, but enjoyable. The jumpscares really got me. 👍🏻
maybe just remove the resolution setting from your game altogether if its not gonna work properly: every scene transition resets it to fullscreen anyway i was curious about Philippine social culture and daily living environments. and i want to say the models and settings were done really well. the buildings, interiors, all of it feel grounded and true-to-life. giga plot twist too and i dont know what to say about it. take your meds guys. you do not want your bestie murdered just because another personality decides he's "not truly your friend" like come on!!
The game is worth it
7.5 Sausages out of 10 https://youtu.be/H_wwguoPNCU
Good indie horror game. It can be beat in about 60-90 minutes. The story is decent too. I enjoyed my playthrough.
Loved the game. A weird amalgamation of hard work reality, nigthmares, angst. For the price its an easy recommendation.
挺不错的小众独立游戏,没有追逐,有跳脸,但是比较适当,心理恐怖氛围做得还可以,整体偏慢节奏,适合微恐爱好者游玩,不足的是流程短,叙事差了点,总觉得差点意思,而且没有中文,其他就没有什么问题了。
