Detention®

Detention is a side-scrolling horror adventure set in 1960s Taiwan during the White Terror period. You explore a deserted school, solve environmental puzzles, and piece together a story rooted in local folklore, political fear, and personal guilt. Its scares are more oppressive than loud, with strong art direction and a heavy, mournful atmosphere. It is a good fit if you like compact horror games that rely on setting and symbolism rather than combat.
