What players say
The main gameplay is to find as many ending you can, so it is more of a puzzle game rather than linear horror game. The ending could be as simple as interacting one thing and immediately got it, or do the series of events and unlock more secret and interesting ending.

Pamali: The White Lady, Indonesian culture as horror Pamali The White Lady is a really cool gateway into Indonesian urban legends. The idea of combining culture and horror is already interesting, but what makes the game stand out is that it doesn't just slap Indonesian folklore onto a generic horror game. It deeply respects the culture and actively incorporates it into the gameplay. My favorite part is the report...
At first I thought it's gonna be proper Horror Game , but it's sooo boring , Big L
