All about game Detention

"Detention", a horror video game set in the 1960s, is an exploration of Taiwanese and Chinese culture and mythology. Developed by Red Candle Games and released in 2017, this atmospheric horror title has been praised for its unique graphics and gaming experience.

The story follows two students from Greenwood High School who are caught outside during martial law after school hours. With no way to return home safely, they must explore their surroundings as they try to find a way out while avoiding the supernatural entities that haunt them. The game employs traditional Chinese folklore elements such as fox spirits, ghosts and gods that players must confront in order to survive their journey through Greenwood High School’s cursed halls.

Players will also encounter interactive objects throughout the game which can be used to solve puzzles or progress further into the story. These objects not only add an extra layer of complexity but also help bring realism to Detention's world; many of these items have special meaning within Taiwan's culture such as offering incense at temples or burning paper money for the dead - all of which are important aspects of life under martial law during this era.

Aside from its interesting narrative, Detention offers both 2D hand-drawn art style combined with 3D environments allowing for enhanced immersion into its setting - making it one of most visually appealing horror games available today! Its unique blend between classic Asian horror themes with modern graphical presentation has earned itself many awards including Best Narrative Game at Indie Prize Asia 2018 and Outstanding Achievement Award at Taipei Game Show 2019.

With intense atmosphere, stunning visuals accompanied by original soundtrack composed specifically for this title – Detention offers gamers an unforgettable experience unlike any other!
