Karamu is a game that plays with your expectations in a brilliant way. Very often I see games portraying yandere characters and focusing on their personality, 'passion', and the relationship dynamics they end up creating, but this game doesn't stop on that. 

Before I started it, I thought it would restrain itself into simply dividing the couple into a "good side" and a "bad side" (of course the yandere being the bad side). But the plot is much more thicker than that, and each time I got a different ending, my mind would twist itself. "What?... Huh.... Why is this happening?... Huh?... Wait WHA... GASP!"

It's a incredible jigsaw puzzle that gives you hints that you will let pass by until the plot shoves it in your face and you feel "HOW DID I NOT NOTICE THIS BEFORE???????????????". It's beautifully intelligent, gently enticing, scary in a soft way.

sdgsgfddh Len your review is so kind, you're gonna make me cry...I'm really glad that you had this experience with it! As a writer I love writing stories that toy with people's expectations/leaves clues towards a larger mystery that coalesce near the end, so it makes me so happy to know that the story had the effect that I wanted!! "Beautifully intelligent, gently enticing, scary in a soft way" I'm gonna sob...I'm glad that there was a "soft scariness" to it, and it wasn't too scary for you! Even though I'm a horror fan admittedly I do get spooked by really "hard" horror too! And my aesthetic for the game was soft and melancholic, so I'm glad that it didn't become too spooky! Thank you so much for playing; it was so fun watching your reactions!!
