Tung Tung Tung Sahur

Tung Tung Tung Sahur is an atmospheric indie horror game that blends local tradition with surreal elements drawn from internet culture. Set in a quiet urban neighborhood just before dawn, the game challenges players to move through oddly shifting streets while avoiding strange entities inspired by distorted versions of familiar figures. The tone is neither entirely serious nor completely absurd—it moves between eerie silence and sudden unpredictability, keeping players uncertain about what’s real and what’s performance.

Playing Within a Warped Tradition

The main premise borrows loosely from the practice of waking neighbors for sahur, the pre-dawn meal during Ramadan. But in Tung Tung Tung Sahur, the role of the wake-up caller becomes something more ominous. Players must explore dim alleys, rooftops, and back entrances to collect scattered items while avoiding a figure who imitates this traditional role with exaggerated, almost mechanical persistence. Familiar urban details—bikes, garbage bins, shopfronts—appear off-kilter, contributing to a sense of quiet wrongness.

Strange Characters and Shifting Logic

Throughout the game, players may encounter bizarre figures that don’t speak or move in recognizable ways. These characters, often based on exaggerated internet memes, seem to follow their own logic. Some appear harmless, while others interrupt the player’s progress in unexpected ways. The game never explains who these figures are or why they exist, leaving players to draw their own conclusions. The discomfort comes not from fear of failure, but from the feeling that something deeply illogical is taking place just beneath the surface.

Loops, Noise, and the Feeling of Being Watched

Tung Tung Tung Sahur doesn’t follow a traditional structure. The layout of the city can shift mid-playthrough. Sounds might repeat where they shouldn’t. A path that led to safety earlier might now lead into a dead-end filled with static. Players must rely on memory, instinct, and experimentation to move forward. There is no combat, only evasion—and no instruction, only vague familiarity.
