About
David Lagani is just an ordinary Filipino worker trying to get by. But when news spreads of a figure breaking into homes and making people disappear, his routine turns to dread.
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.

NICE GAME WITH A LOT OF MEANING!!
필리핀식 공포
Nice game it brings horror and presents the culture of Filipino while that.
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。
The game is worth it
Loved the game. A weird amalgamation of hard work reality, nigthmares, angst. For the price its an easy recommendation.
I think you really have to be a local Filipino to understand the reality of the situation. I can't imagine what these experiences are like and don't ever want to. Especially being based off true events, wow. A truly dark and nightmarish situation and at some times hard to take in. Thanks for sharing. See my playthrough here: https://youtu.be/LLFl5naZCYs
Good indie horror game. It can be beat in about 60-90 minutes. The story is decent too. I enjoyed my playthrough.
Graphics and animation remind me of the Playstation 1 days. Its a quick game but the price is right and its interesting to hear the narration in Tagalog. Surprisingly it did give me a bit of a scare every so often too. Definitely recommend. Short but sweet fun.
Sehr starkes Spiel, vor allem wenn du ein "Fears to Fathom" Fan bist. Allerdings hat das Spiel seinen ganz eigenen Style und Flair, daher kann ich es nur zu 100% empfehlen. Ganz großartig! Genau wie dieser NotHuman xoxo
