About Lost in Yomori
Lost in Yomori is a first-person mystery adventure from moedev that drops you in a fog-shrouded forest where people vanish without a trace. Released in late 2025 for PC, it leans into atmospheric puzzle-solving and ambiguous storytelling. The game centers on navigating the eerie Yomori woods while being tugged between two enigmatic female characters: one who tempts you deeper into danger and another who urges caution. It’s a short, low-action experience that thrives on mood and moral ambiguity. If you like games where the journey feels more important than the destination, this one sticks out.
Gameplay
You wander a constantly shifting forest, collecting items to solve environmental puzzles and avoid traps. Controls are minimalist, mouse movement and basic keyboard commands. The core loop involves exploring dense fog patches, interacting with cryptic symbols, and choosing between paths suggested by the two female guides. Each decision subtly alters the tone and ending. The forest feels alive with random encounters like shadowy figures or sudden disappearances of landmarks. While there’s no combat or inventory management, the tight 4-8 hour runtime keeps sessions brisk. The lack of save points adds tension, but the procedurally generated layouts mean no two runs feel exactly alike.
What Players Think
PlayPile readers gave it 4.3/5, with 87% of critics calling it "hauntingly memorable." 68% of players finish the game, averaging 6.2 hours. Community moods split into 39% curious, 28% uneasy, and 18% contemplative. Reviews highlight the forest’s “eerie beauty” but note choices “don’t always matter as much as they should.” With 38 achievements, 62% of players unlock at least one, though only 12% complete the elusive “Follow the Moon” trophy. The game’s 93% completion rate on PC suggests accessibility issues are rare, but 22% of players report minor control frustrations.
PlayPile's Take
Lost in Yomori is $19.99 well-spent if you crave slow-burn mystery and don’t mind sparse interactivity. It’s not for action fans or those needing clear direction. The 38 achievements offer replay value, but most won’t justify a second playthrough. The forest’s unsettling atmosphere and branching narrative choices make it a standout for genre purists. With under 7 hours of playtime, it’s a bite-sized experience that leaves more questions than answers, a quality that’ll frustrate some but charm others.
