I tried that first…all of them showed it was impossible and when I took the killer route and found evidence, it was on Graham.

Right after this. Also yes, I am playing the older version, I quite like it.

I reached a point where I find it’s Graham and then I am stuck to defend him(??) I’m not sure how to progress beyond that.

I didn’t get to see the plot beyond the demo but I do quite like it so far. I also love how the priest here is not docile or innocent - she is just someone who has been so used to the violence. Which has been the inverse from most medias I see, where they’re depicted either as monsters or as docile creatures.

Can’t wait for more!

I had wanted to post an update but also wanted to speak about the game (besides the issues) so I deleted the older comment for this, given there’s only one other comment speaking about it.

To those who are having issues (on downloading, mac), use the web version than the itch app.

That aside, it was marvellous. I loved how it switched between a portrait and landscape, making it feel so much more dynamic as I don’t like to stick to just one. The storytelling was fantastic as well. I signed up for the newsletter and honestly didn’t notice so many things…which further makes me appreciate the game more.

Spoilers from here: My goodness, the characters actually focusing on history, their relationships with others prior to it...I quite love it when MC is their own person but also can be changed somewhat slightly that unlocks different things. All of them seems like it'd lead to one area, which even in story it is--kind of--but the things you unlock, the CGs you get and the way you're looking at some characters and relationships will still GREATLY differ.

MC being trans was also used in such a good way. Normally I don’t see it from others but it did stand out for me for this. It wasn’t bashing anyone per se (even Reinfield, for me, because it didn’t feel like it was the point) but focusing on themselves. Cez particularly does make me love it though, because you can seriously and rationally mistake them as a woman until you actually play their route.

I was just wondering if the things the characters (Cez, Ilena, Teodora) consume from the girl betrays their own personality (or are what they’re craving for, from others).

Teodora consumes tendons, which are tough, connect muscles to bones, allowing movement of joints. She seems to be a very tough individual, perhaps the reason why the other two brides are staying and allows the house to be a, well, house. Otherwise I can imagine it being a place where disharmony thrives with everyone being at odds with eachother until a day comes where Dracula takes their life away from them. Or perhaps, that’s what Teodora wants to look like (very tough) whereas she’s very emotional but doesn’t want to be in that state. It shows–when we catch her, her attention never deviates, almost like she wants something all for herself.

Ilena takes the heart’s artery. It carries O2 rich blood, very helpful in sustaining life aswell. Perhaps it’s meant to depict that she is someone who doesn’t back down so easily (despite being a defeated revolutionary…), at least in small measures before Dracula gets to her. Or that she envies that from her victims, how they have a life.

Cez gets the girl’s knees. Like making sure that she breaks completely…or mourns how her own boundaries had been torn apart, how she bended to the society till she nearly broke, join the ’cula and is still miserable.

Replaying through to get other dialogs, Ilena says how he’d break everyone’s minds into obeying. No wonder the ending we got had us nearly murdering our superior and having all of Dracula’s wives (well, 2 wives and a spouse) being disgruntled but still by his side.

I know why we have only Dracula as the main person but idk, feels weird when I’m out here trying to romance anyone but him (eyes deadset on Ghost, whose eyes are transformed into Billiards so I don’t expect it to be reciprocated).

Thanks! I didn’t know it’d be different.

Got it, I’ll check it out and get on browser as well to see it. Thanks!

It’s pretty good! I don’t know how to change my character’s name though. Aside from that, looking forward to it really

I was also not targeting you, the downvotes does make me angry and that’s about it. On hindsight it does look like it so apologies if it came across that way.

No one is understanding what I’m saying and I’m just tired.

I’m saying - the creator considers making a male protag as well (game description + even in this comments). Of course, they can’t tag mlm at the moment because it’s F protag but the creator intends to attract otome audience plus mlm audience if they release a male version.

If you focus only on AI art (…which was in the early stage, which no one would have found that it was stealing from actual artists), obviously it’s a chore for you. If you decide to sit down, look past it and understand the story itself, it would be much more emotional as the story itself is not thrown into AI garbage anyway.

The artist also doesn’t really plan to engage with it so there’s that too.

I saw and to my understanding, it’s catered to that audience + mlm in future. They cannot just tag it yaoi / whatever mlm tag is now itself if it’s underway

Spoilers for story, different interpretation: Quite loved it yet I believe that MC will be caught by the end of it nevertheless and will even receive worse sentence. The cupboard would be stained of blood, fireplace would have fabric of our clothes and wooden flooring will reveal that there was some blood in it which was cleaned before the murder actually happened (and sink if there were blood traces). Then the gossip women would be put on stand who would tell that MC is the one who told the rumor to them upon questioning, who will then be the prime suspect. Hair particles and other things may trace it back to MC and she would be in jail for double the time.

For me, that is truly the saddest part - that the MC would truly never escape this hell and everyone will be even more attached to the bride that they’ll support the bride even if she becomes an obvious killer in the future.

(1 edit)

Nowhere does it tell that it’s intended for female only audience, hell just above your post the OP said that she’s willing to keep for both and yet she was downvoted. Yaoi games or mlm games are promoted as such, usually.

Edit: Though obviously if it was only otome I still understand and respect it nevertheless.

Oh, of course I’d do it! I checked it out and it was unexpected, reminded me of Monika a bit honestly. I had no idea he’d even wipe off his own memory like that, I hope we get more of his route because the how factor is interesting. From what I remember, he also mentions being stuck in a loop, which makes me believe that we as players have tinkered with the game more times than we are aware of.

As for Nulla’s route, I don’t think so. I entered in and if I chose to introduce myself as the player and choose Nulla, the game stops (of course) and if I normally introduced myself and then chose Nulla, he dismissed me and doesn’t become an option.

Either ways, I’m looking forward to the update!

It was with some time, it happened during/between chapters. There were 3 fans and I got to it. Then the screen moved towards the left and then crashed. Other than that, I’m glad to hear you’ve been working on it, excited to see what’s there to come.

I forgot to update, my bad really.

So I uninstalled and reinstalled, removed all entries and it is much better now. I still cannot input my name nor the choices that we once chose can be re-chosen, but there is more content to the “move on” dialog which did seem like a good closure for that route, I’m happy with that.

I hope that we get the save / load option right at the dialog because it’s much more easier to come back to it.

Edit: After I finished the fan minigame, it randomly crashed and now I lost all the stat I accumulated. A shame, really.

Edit 2: This does not progress from where when I choose to find Isadora through a new way.

Is there no content after the night time so far?

That makes sense - I haven’t done that yet, so I have to try doing it (if it’s in the demo already). That’s cool to hear, looking forward to it!

I am honestly quite drawn with the artwork, the warmth of it is amazing, yet chilling for some unknown reason, as if to appear to look like they have a life but truly do not at the heart of it. The storyline seemed to be pretty good as well, overall I hope to get more updates and see what is to come, there is a lot of potential.

Story: I decided to do a little something and yap endlessly with Unum, who was surprisingly positive about it? I thought he'd cut off the puppet's tongue and be the only one to talk or so. I did it with Septem and he didn't kill me which was a surprise as well. Either ways, I'm quite looking forward to their "dates"? As well as whoever is to come in the future.

https://snipboard.io/YU54NC.jpg < Occurs as a dialog option when choosing between them (Septem v/s Unum where Nulla can also be involved).

Not sure how to even exit the room…I think making it a bit more user friendly helps, I didn’t even know you could type so that’s something I suppose. I know “room exit” but nothing more, even then it says the exit itself and that’s about it.

Oh, yeah, here is where I found a spelling mistake. It’s the you’re instead of your when talking about Lucas’ brother.

I finished the demo and it was honestly pretty cool. There’s not a lot of text-based games which is truly such a shame because I personally love them the most (see: Games like Choices that Matter).

Storytelling: I am drawn to the storytelling of the game. I’m not sure how our choices affect the story yet (besides the main one and Victoria’s status going from partial towards us to neutral if you press on the D’Angelo one). The font and the colour schemes are pretty good and I’m all in for having a canon character (Quincy) instead of self-inserting. The effort put into the Imani’s rabbit and hare story was superb, I can already see a lot of potential in it.

The artstyle seemed super detailed as well. It’s right up my alley, the caricature-esque style of it. I’m really drawn to Kaitos’ clothes more than anything, haha.

Bug: The linking part after demo doesn’t work for me. Couldn’t go through the Tumblr as a result.

Overall, I’m looking forward to it really, it has a solid foundation from what I’ve played.

This was amazing…beyond amazing. The graphics were so detailed, which definitely could not have been an easy thing and the character arc of theirs…

Spoilers:I really loved how reading the scrolls about farm laws and such became a very important role, a connection I could never make otherwise. At one point I thought Mother Superior herself was a killer, which we know she isn't. I do wonder who killed the General though, I don't think it was ever mentioned.

In addition to that, the idea of the King placing power on people who do not believe in the religion is a fascinating thing overall. Only they are truly vigilant enough and distant enough that they see the truth of the matter but still lie in order to keep the harmony. I wonder if Flint was also killed by the end of it…

It is the updated version, I checked and updated it before I made the comment…I’ll uninstall it completely and reinstall it, perhaps that would fix the issue I’m facing.

I tried it again today and it works! Thank you for being responsive.

EDITED review after uninstalling and reinstalling:

Bugs and errors I found when playing through - contains spoilers: Error 1: Game crashes during fan minigame which I am highly aware is being fixed.

Error 2: Save/Load option not happening during selection of choices.

Error 3: Not being able to choose the same choice again when selecting through the alternatives.

===================================================== Overall thoughts - I know this demo had a lot of potential, the art is absolutely pretty and the mini-games definitely looks like there was a lot of effort put into it. The story seems absolutely amazing which made me stay, especially now that I have reinstalled it and played through it. The team was pretty kind as well, being very helpful through it all.

I will still stick through, just hope that the issues gets resolved quickly.

Exe files don’t open in Mac unless it’s through VMs like Parallels.

Looking forward to it, good luck with your endeavours! Remember to take care of yourself while at it by resting, drinking adequate levels of water, etc.

No, I do have other itch apps running in my device. I saw stream, it seems that only windows version is available so far?

Ok, I checked and apparently it was a beta, my bad. New mac release doesn’t work at all now

[Wrong Mac demo]

I think it’s just me, I cannot access the new version…it says that I have to wait for the new demo instead.

Oh, true, can be because I don’t have PPT. I’ll check it out later in that case!

The design of mascot looks awfully similar to something I know…

Either ways, can’t download it [on mac]

It does work normally. You can’t edit [previous] comment with it though…and you additionally will have to enabke HTML which I think you have.

Was trying to give a temporary solution.

You can, to a degree.

Thank you! I'd love to be updated with her song. I'd love to know how you spoiler it that way, it'd really help.

Also, this story somehow gave me exactly what I needed (but didn't even know). It had the perfect mix, honestly felt nice to just see it. This being your first game does surprise me, because it seemed pretty cool for a first game.
