Erebus

Taking inspiration from the RPG OMORI by OMOCAT, and ALTER EGO by Caramel Column Inc., Erebus is a game that strives to create an immersive dream world for players to explore and learn more about themselves along the way.

Immerse yourself in the colorful dream world of Erebus and make friends along the way on a journey of self-discovery! Solve puzzles to gain sigils of stars, tokens that allow you to enter the abode of Brizo, who will help you explore your inner psyche.

Ikelos, Brizo, and Nyx provide different puzzles for players to solve. Solving puzzles earns players certain merits, depending on which entity's puzzle was solved.

Using sigils of stars obtained from Ikelos, Brizo, or Nyx allows players to enter the abode of Oneiroi. Oneiroi will then test the player, and help them explore their identities.

Visiting Oneiroi brings new revelations each time, so be sure to visit again once you collect more sigils.

Depending on the outcome of the tests taken, you will be able to learn more about yourself,  Erebus, and the inhabitants who dwell there.
