About Explore Fushimi Inari

✦ AI summary

Explore a meticulously recreated Fushimi Inari Taisha shrine at your own pace, discovering hidden areas and branching paths across an expansive mountainside dotted with iconic gates. This first-person walking experience combines stunning visual authenticity with atmospheric exploration, rewarding curiosity with secrets while letting you customize the soundtrack and capture moments with an in-game camera.

(DLC is required for VR compatibility)

With photos and memories from a few years ago, I set out to achieve a detailed, realistically designed recreation of the renowned Japanese shrine, Fushimi Inari Taisha. I feel like the real place has a very culturally unique significance, I personally had a great time exploring it a few years ago. I've designed this environment to be experienced from a first person perspective, with the aim of allowing the player to be immersed in the same kind of atmosphere as the real place.

(Engine / Photo Comparison)

The map is very extensive to explore with shrine gates laid out over the entire mountainside. I've tried to include a lot of variance in different parts of the mountain, with lots of points of interest to discover and many branching/intertwining paths to encourage you to make choices with your exploration. Take photos with the in-game camera, customize the soundtrack, walk around at your own pace. Your attentiveness and eagerness to explore will be rewarded with access to hidden areas, areas that will be easily missed by a rushed player.

I hope you are able to dive into this game without much context and just enjoy being immersed in the world. Thanks for playing and for your support !

IT'S VERY PRETTY!!! Gosh the view is breathtaking. I had a lot of fun taking pictures with the camera, but put it on max graphic made my PC into a drilling machine. Played it a long time ago but i still remember that. Made me want to visit this place again. I really recommend trying this and just walk around to relax.

Takes you back to your vacation trip to Japan! Lush graphics and very soothing. Don't expect much excitement. VR is recommended!

A neat environment simulation or tech demo that was formerly free, but which has been delisted. It was a little blurry when I tried it in VR. I haven't tried the newer paid compilation yet.
