About this game
Niskala: Sacred Knowledge of Leyak Niskala: Sacred Knowledge of Leyak is an Indonesian indie psychological horror game inspired by Balinese culture, local wisdom, spiritual traditions, and folklore , built with respect and research into the myth of leyak (leak) and the unseen world. You play as Putu , a college student living in the city.

Progression is driven by environmental storytelling, investigation, and puzzles —from decoding clues, finding ritual objects, reading notes, and understanding spiritual rules, to solving situations that require the right actions at the right time. The puzzles are integrated naturally into the world: not as “gamey obstacles,” but as part of Putu’s search for meaning and survival. Multiple Endings — Your Choices Shape the Story Every decision in Niskala carries consequences. Will you follow the guidance of a Jero Dasaran , respect sacred traditions, and maintain harmony with ancestral spirits? Or will you reject the rituals, challenge the unseen rules, and face the cost of defiance? Your choices lead to different outcomes— from survival, loss, to hidden truths that only reveal themselves to those who respec…
