## About This Game

The Rewinder is a 2D puzzle adventure game inspired by traditional Chinese
folklore.

The game uses pixel art to mimic the aesthetics of Chinese ink paintings.
Players will get to meet mythological figures such as the Spirit Wardens, the
Ox-head and Horse-face Guardians of the Beyond, and the Tudi Gong (Keeper of
the Land).

The player takes on the role of Qi Yun, a “rewinder” who has the ability to
enter people’s memories and influence their actions. By utilizing “senses” and
swaying others’ “intentions”, he can change history.

At the request of the Spirit Wardens, Qi Yun goes to a small village to
investigate why a spirit couldn’t be reincarnated. The once thriving village
has been deserted and filled with resentful spirits, leaving one woman alone
in the teahouse. Who’s she waiting for? Where did all the other villagers go?
What really happened seven years ago?
