Forest of Terenu

Enter the Forest of Terenu, a mysterious, otherworldly realm steeped in sorrow, memory, and the remnants of lost souls. In this gripping visual novel, you become Ellis, a 17-year-old girl searching for her missing brother, guided only by a flickering flame and the distant echoes of the past.

After falling asleep one night and awakening in a dreamlike yet menacing forest, Ellis finds herself trapped in a realm where light has faded and grief has taken root. The only constant is a strange glowing orb—her only source of light, and perhaps, her only ally.

As Ellis ventures deeper into the shadows of Terenu, she meets peculiar spirits and lost wanderers, each bearing pieces of a much larger puzzle: a tragedy buried in time and a curse that binds them all. Some want to help, others deceive. But all are haunted.
And Ellis is no exception.

Will you uncover the truth hidden beneath the trees—or be consumed by the darkness yourself?
