Helping Ani is a psychological horror game that plunges players into a dark and unsettling narrative. You step into the shoes of Hajime, a young boy tasked with delivering an item to his girlfriend, Ani. However, the journey through the vast forest is fraught with peril, including hidden traps and menacing creatures.
