My name is Lin Xiaoyu. I am forever trapped in a world of rules and fear.
Every time I open my eyes, I find myself in an unfamiliar dead end:
An old mansion, a school building, an old apartment, a deserted village, a night-shift hospital...
Every place hides a scrap of paper listing rules I must not break.
Folk taboos, sinister ghost stories, mind-bending death loops, and unseen “things.”
Misread, mishear, or forget even one rule, and I’m doomed beyond all hope.
I have no memories of a past life, and I’m not continuing an earlier story.
I simply keep entering new nightmares,
solving riddles in despair and fighting to survive amid the uncanny.
Every version of me you see is a brand-new Lin Xiaoyu.
And you’ll come along with me,
to find the one path to survival in the most suffocating terror of all.
