Chakana
A downloadable game for Windows
"An ordinary date takes a dark turn"
You planned for a quiet evening. The table is set, the atmosphere is warm, and the night seems to be unfolding just as you'd hoped. But as the meal progresses, something feels off.
In this atmospheric horror game, explore your home as strange events disrupt your date, leaving you to navigate through questions, confrontations, and your own dread. Each decision can bring you closer to unraveling the mystery or plunge you deeper into its grip.
The time is running out, manage the eerie silence, and tread carefully to keep your secrets hidden—or risk exposing yourself. Face a twisting psychological horror that questions how far you'd go to protect yourself from your fate.

Here's my video, I play your game and review it at the end. :)
The first time, I got arrested because I was still wearing the bloody shirt and I put the body bags in the bedroom and he opened it😭. But the second time, I didn't wash my hands and just threw all the bags by the trash can; I was panicking, but he left without suspecting much even tho it's a game the cop makes me so nervous! 10/10 amazing story, visuals, sounds and everything👍👏
Really fun game can't wait for the next chapter!
This game is pretty fun :) i got confused on what chakana means but in the end it all came together :D
Rock n Roll
question? i just updated, it is there new content in the game or just some minor changes?
amazing dating sim with cop heh ;D
I really liked this game, I missed a body part two times in a row.
very awesom game!!!!1! more pls... please :)
I Think This Game Is Really Nice I Have Never Played Anything Like It Before I Might Have To Come Back And Finish It.
8:40 Is When This Game Starts
This is an interesting short horror game with an amazing story telling, I love the aspects of your game:
Interesting short game, I liked the small details you have to figure out in order to avoid raising suspicion and getting arrested. Finally got it after a couple of tries, took me a while to find the garbage bags. Can't wait to see the next chapter !
Here's my successful attempt for anyone curious :
This game was cool, I definitely had no idea what to do the first time around!
This was an intense game! I can't wait for next chapter!
Vraiment vraiment cool !!
Merci =)
Thanks for the game :)
OMG, such an incredible game, a very interesting perspective, usually horror games are made with you being the innocent, but this was amazing, the art style to the story line, everything was just perfect, different aspects of covering up a murder is not what people think about usually, seriously can't wait for chapter 2, easily a fave game ♥♥♥
"Chakana" delivers an incredible blend of tension, atmosphere, and storytelling that keeps you on the edge of your seat from start to finish. The premise of a simple date spiraling into something far more sinister is captivating, and the execution is masterful. The quiet unease builds steadily, and every small interaction feels loaded with meaning, pulling you deeper into the mystery.
The exploration of the home is immersive, with each strange event carefully placed to heighten the psychological horror. The choices you make feel weighty, and the branching paths add a layer of replayability that makes you want to dive back in to uncover more of the story—or to see how far you can push your luck before the tension snaps.
I especially loved how the game creates an eerie, almost suffocating silence that feels as much a character as the protagonists themselves. The way it toys with the player's sense of safety and pushes you to make split-second decisions under pressure is brilliantly unsettling.
"Chakana" isn’t just a game; it’s an experience that lingers long after you’ve turned off the screen. If you're a fan of psychological horror and love narratives that blur the lines between reality and nightmare, this is a must-play. Can't wait to see what comes next from this developer!
i have a bit of terrible mic quality but im looking into getting a new mic i hope you still enjoy my video playthrough
Very interesting horror game. Very tense.
I liked the atmosphere and the constant unpredictable events. The details in it are W too. I don't want make any spoiler neither so... I played it in Twitch, translating it into Spanish.
Side note: the game is incompatible to OBS.
The stream in question.
Foi uma experiência agradável, fui pego de surpresa em ser o assassino e não a vitima dessa vez, muito interessante que você vai ficando mais rápido e capaz de fazer mais coisas depois que é pego.
Wow that got weird, I love it! It goes from a date, to a crime scene, and a Tamagotchi. I was surprised as you'll see in my Gameplay:
Tiz010, I've never heard of a cop knowing so much about art before and this made your game even more amazing! I still end it with not understanding a thing, but the journey to get there was worth it. I loved the whole murder cleanup part. That was fantastic! Can't wait for you to release the next chapter!I had a good time with this, well done. I share my feedback at the end of the video. Enjoy!
Interesting And A Great experience!
very good game
I absolutely loved this game!~ Thank you~ I do no commentary gameplays of small horror games or other miscellania
hope to be full time youtuber! good game
The artstyle is interesting and the game looks cool, but a slider or option for the volume would be nice little bit too loud sometimes :)
This game was pretty good. The beginning music is amazing. The art style was very interesting added with the dialogue system that changed depending on your actions and the environment. It would've been very interesting if there was alternate endings or choices you could make on this game (There was none in my knowledge. Other than that the game for me was a cleaning simulator. Not saying it in a bad way but just that i spend 20-25 minutes moping blood. Again not saying that's necessarily bad. I mean people might consider something repetitive to be boring but it wasn't that bad when I did it at least. Also it would be nice to nudge the player that that you have to get the trash bags and collect the body parts. Technically there might be dialogues with the detective after you answer the door that let's say nudges you to collect the body parts and hide them in the trash bin. But that would mean that some people might end up spending 1 hour moping floor cause they are retrying again and again(Since that's what you do for 50%-60% of the game ). So maybe make the trash bags a little bit bigger and have something that slightly separates them from the surrounding environment? I mean you technically made them black and and little while but I'll be honest they don't look like trash bags, they look like sock rolls or something. Of course of course the mechanic of replaying again and again to figure out what you are missing and finally win can still work but it again comes back to 50-60% of the game being moping floors. If you let's say added different things we could do that you know to be fair you can make each of them take like 20 minutes sure as long as it isn't left clicking 20 times on the floor and cleaning your mop and repeating this 10 times. Or you can just remove the mopping the floor part- which I mean wait I know that sounds really radical and you might think "Is he a psychopath to suggest removing 50% of the game????" but that's just me putting out the options since I did enjoy mopping floors for half a hour but sadly I had to speed it up 1500-2000% or something so the video isn't super long. But ya this game was pretty cool. It had a uniqueness to it. I am interested on what chapter 2 and etc is gonna be about.
Very interesting! Love the art style and the sound design was pretty good too. The only thing that stood out to me was how sensitive the mouse feels. Just having a way to adjust that would go a long way. Nice job!
Nice suggestion, i'll definitely add more options when releasing Chapter 2.
