Forbidden Siren is a Survival Horror game developed by SCE Japan Studio and Project Siren, notable for its unique atmosphere, multi-character structure, and emphasis on stealth.
Plot and Premise
- Setting: The game is set in the fictional, initially peaceful Japanese village of Hanyuda.
- The Incident: A “dark day” invades the village, causing the inhabitants to turn into scary demons known as Shibito who hunt the remaining survivors.
- Objective: The player’s task is to try to survive and help others if possible.
Gameplay and Features
- Protagonists: Players assume the roles of multiple survivors (implied in the previous entry as well) throughout the story.
- Enemies: The main threat comes from the Shibito, and players must be careful of everyone they meet.
- Stealth and Observation: Gameplay heavily relies on stealth. Players must:
- Hide and observe strangers.
- Hide from suspicious figures (Shibito).
- Catch stories and help normal people.
- Playing as the Enemy: The game includes unique levels where players temporarily play the roles of the Shibito, experiencing the feeling of being the “evil and bloodthirsty demons.”
- Items and Progression: Various items can be picked up during gameplay, some serving as weapons, while others open up new stories (or objectives/unlocks).
