Did you take on any of the optional challanges?
Not this time :)

RPG Maker MZ

Is there anything else you want people to know before playing?
Search everything, but be prepared for anything.

Even though EXP is divided among party members ex. 100 EXP for one party member solo, 25 EXP per party member for a team of 4 I still recommend a large party if it's your first time playing.

Having a bigger team will be easier since levels won't matter that much until I improve the balancing of the game in the next update.

Highly recommend are Reporter to make cash and either Psychic or Parapsychologist to deal with demons/ghosts.

Recommended balanced party - Investigator/Psychic/Parapsychologist/Reporter

Soooo good! Great story, great writing, and I looooove the pixel art!

I found the gameplay a little confusing and overwhelming at the start though. I love the replay value of making a different party and the town navigation system, but making almost all of it available to the player right at the beginning made me feel like I wasn't doing things right. If things like the inn and shop were disabled until after the player makes their first run of the mansion, it would have felt smoother from the start.
