About the Game
The Scourge is a 3D atmospheric horror adventure rooted in Vietnamese urban legend and supernatural folklore. Set against the gritty backdrop of 1990s Saigon, it brings cultural memory, personal trauma, and malevolent supernatural forces into collision.
Built entirely by a Vietnamese team, it is one of the rare horror titles to present an authentic Southeast Asian perspective to a global audience.

What Players & Viewers Say
I haven't been this shaken by a horror game since Silent Hill. The candle scenes, the kite, the ending... I was not okay. This is exactly what Southeast Asian horror has been waiting to become.
Steam Review - United States
Finally a Vietnamese horror game that doesn't rely on jump scares to destroy you. The dread just builds and builds through atmosphere, through the way rooms are arranged.
YouTube Comment - Germany
Rare Reversee just put Vietnamese horror on the global gaming map. This is mandatory for anyone who thinks atmospheric horror peaked with Western studios. It didn't.

As a Vietnamese player, seeing my culture represented this faithfully. The altar arrangements, the incense, the way grief works in these families, I'm genuinely emotional. This is ours.
Steam Review - Vietnam
This game is exquisitely crafted. The developers didn't spell out every truth, but you can infer everything from details. Each piece was made with tremendous care.
