At midnight, every storefront is shuttered except one hot pot restaurant. Take orders, prepare hot pot, and close up—a simple job. But the previous manager disappeared before the seventh shift. Complete all seven shifts in this PS1-style first-person horror game inspired by East Asian folklore.
On a shopping street lined with shuttered shops, only one light remains on. It belongs to a hot pot restaurant—and starting today, you’re the manager.
HOT POT FOR THE DEAD is a PS1-style first-person horror game set in a hot pot restaurant.
