"Gehinnom is a horror action game that supports 1-4 players in both co-op and PvP modes. In co-op mode, players work together to banish a chasing demon by performing a ritual using items found from solving random quests. The PvP mode allows one player to become the demon, hunting the other players before they complete the ritual. The game's reliance on randomness creates a sense of fear, with unpredictable elements such as room layouts, quests, demon attack patterns, and weather."
