Details

Step into the shadows of 1920s Korea with Wonhon: The Beginning, a unique paranormal stealth-action and tactics game. Players embody a young Korean girl who, alongside her family, falls victim to a brutal village attack.

In the wake of this tragedy, she is granted a spectral gift by Jeoseung Saja, the God of Death: the ability to transform into a ghost and possess living creatures.

Without conventional weapons, survival and vengeance hinge on cunning. The core gameplay loop revolves around utilizing stealth, observing enemy patterns, and strategically possessing creatures to overcome obstacles and exact retribution.

This phantasmal protagonist must master her unique powers, draining life force (Qi) from her surroundings to fuel her ghostly transformations and advance her quest.

Wonhon: The Beginning offers a compelling narrative steeped in alternate history and dark humor, challenging players to think tactically and embrace the supernatural to achieve their goals. The game's atmosphere is thick with tension, blending psychological horror elements with fast-paced action sequences.
