Alvin is not completely alone. His constant companion is the spirit of his younger sister Jane, who tragically passed away at the age of five. Her presence is both comforting and bittersweet, offering guidance, emotional support, and assistance in navigating this nightmare world. Together, they must find a way out of their home, survive the horrors beyond, and uncover the origin of the mysterious curse that has consumed the village.
Seek the Path in the Darkness
Set in the 1960s, Who is He: Let Me Out draws heavily from Indonesian folklore, featuring supernatural beings and mythological elements that will be familiar to those who grew up hearing local ghost stories. The village itself becomes a character. Narrow alleys, dense forests, and abandoned homes all carry the lingering memories of those who once lived there.
Ghosts and demons that roam these areas are not random monsters, but manifestations drawn from regional myths, each with its own personality, appearance, and weakness. They are not easily confronted; stealth, preparation, and knowledge are your best weapons against them. Will you uncover the truth behind this curse before it claims you too?

Alvin must use his knowledge and resources to fight the creatures of the darkness. Potion brewing is the key factor to resolve the encounter across the path. Herbs, mystical components, and strange artifacts can be found along the way. Combine each of them and create exorcism potions. The guidebook is available to help Alvin learn how to mix ingredients to be specific brews that are capable of banishing or weakening demons.
The process is as much a puzzle as it is a survival tool. Using the wrong ingredient or brewing at the wrong time can mean disaster. Players will need to carefully search their surroundings, read the signs, and trust their instincts. Brewing becomes a tense but rewarding mechanic, transforming every encounter with a demon into a test of both preparation and courage.
