Welcome back to Wallace Court

Home remembers
what you buried.

Min and Han return to their hometown for their grandmother’s funeral. What begins as a familiar visit soon slips into something impossible.

Pulled between the living world and a hostile realm beyond it, the siblings must explore Wallace Court, solve its mysteries, and confront the restless stories hidden inside its walls—before the night claims them too.

Between two worlds

Survive the seventh month.

A Malaysian Nightmare

Cinematic Survival Horror

Fixed and dynamic camera angles pair with classic or modern controls for a deliberately composed experience.

Your Choices Follow You

Side stories, collectibles, player decisions, and three possible endings reward curiosity.

02 / The Wan Residence
Wan Zi Min

Player one

Wan Zi Min “Min”

Athletic, studious, and fiercely responsible. Wallace Court will test how far she is willing to go to protect her younger brother.

Wan Zi Han

Player two

Wan Zi Han “Han”

Sarcastic, restless, and always one step away from trouble. Beneath his rebellious streak is a kind-hearted boy who refuses to leave his sister behind.

03 / Festival Corridor

The gates open
for one month.

The seventh lunar month opens a passage between the living and the dead.

Roadside shrines, kopitiams, back alleys, apartment corridors, and humid nights become liminal spaces where memory and folklore refuse to stay buried.

05 / Residents’ Voices

The background audio is incredible—the insects, barking dogs, chanting, and voices from different flats feel remarkably real.

The rojak dialogue, azan, architecture, and accents authentically capture everyday Malaysian life. It feels natural rather than forced.

Malaysians living overseas are going to be overwhelmed with nostalgia when they play this.
