Atama

Go to abandoned village where giant screaming, crying and flying heads will attack you. There is story mode that says it disables the enemies, but it doesn't.

Solid! I like the way its mechanics test working memory - it leads to the game feeling a *lot* different than most stealth and/or horror games, and there's a lot of joy to picking apart each setup. The core concept is twisted enough with every level to keep things feeling fresh all the way through, and dev commentary is always a fun inclusion for replay. In terms of production values, it's *very* obviously low-rent and the enemies are quite silly, but it still manages to have enough "realness" that I was able to feel immersed. Good stuff!

Atama is an atmospheric horror-stealth game developed and published by Team Zutsuu that blends psychological tension, Japanese folklore, and an inventive perspective mechanic to create a distinct and haunting experience. The story centers around Kaede, a woman drawn to a remote village after receiving a final, cryptic letter from her aunt, who hints at an old family curse and a legacy that cannot be ignored. What begins as a quiet return to one’s roots soon unravels into a descent through the supernatural decay of Kisaragi Village, a place swallowed by silence and haunted by restless spirits. The narrative unfolds with restraint, letting environmental details and fragments of notes carry the burden of storytelling. There are no lengthy cutscenes or expositional monologues—only an eerie sense of history and inevitability. Atama’s strength lies in this subtlety; it doesn’t explain everything, instead letting its empty streets, abandoned shrines, and flickering lights whisper the truth to those willing to listen. The visual design of Atama captures the stillness and dread of traditional Japanese horror through deliberate simplicity. The environments—forests, shrines, and half-collaps…

A quite good horror game, very atmospheric with great sound design and a unique gameplay mechanic

Kinda short but for $5 can't complain. Def Got my $5 worth in Jumpscares. Good stuff.

Atama is a banger >:) Very fun to play and speedrun, highly recommend. It reminds me a lot of the Sightjacking gameplay mechanic in Siren, which I really enjoyed. Looking forward to attempting Hardcore mode
