A tale of memory and loss. Who do we become when the mind is gone?

In “LibraFox,” you play as a folklorist who stumbles upon an urban legend about a hidden dimension known as the “Library of Eternity.” The legend speaks of a lovable and playful fox-like creature called the “LibraFox” who guides departed souls in preserving their ten best memories for the afterlife. Driven by curiosity and a desire to uncover the truth, you embark on a thrilling adventure to find this elusive realm.

Gameplay:

As the protagonist, you navigate the real world while also delving into the realm of dreams and memories. Your journey will involve interacting with intriguing characters, solving puzzles, and unearthing clues scattered across various urban locations. Each location holds fragments of the legend, and through exploration, you piece together the truth behind the Library of Eternity and the enigmatic LibraFox.

Once you discover the entrance to the hidden dimension, you’re transported to the ethereal Library, where you meet the playful yet challenging LibraFox. To progress in the game, you must collect memories scattered throughout the Library’s mesmerizing landscapes. These memories appear as glowing orbs, and each one takes you on a heartfelt journey to your character’s past.

Throughout your encounters with the LibraFox, its demeanor evolves, starting cold and distant but gradually warming up as you build a bond through shared experiences. The Fox may playfully challenge you in memory-based minigames, testing your ability to recall important moments in your life.

As you progress, you’ll encounter other lost souls who need assistance in finding their own ten best memories. By helping them confront their pasts and come to terms with unresolved emotions, you gain valuable insights that help you grow both as a character and a storyteller.

The game combines elements of adventure, puzzle-solving, and narrative-driven gameplay, allowing players to engage with the world, characters, and folklore. The emotional depth and rich storytelling will immerse players in a captivating and eerie experience.
