TL;DR - A magnificent, compact, and fascinating experience from start to finish with amazing art and an engaging short story that is expertly done!
This game blew me and my expectations away in the best possible way. I will readily admit that I was personally not the biggest fan of the previous game, Dead Plate. While the art was gorgeous, I personally found the characters and story in that game to be predictable and dull at times. Furthermore, the gameplay just didn't really do a good job at capturing my attention and was slightly frustrating at times. (Now to be fair, I did drop the game about halfway through. I fully acknowledge that the game very well could have improved in the second half, however I just didn't feel engaged or interested enough to bring myself to pick it back up again.)
Needless to say, I was slightly apprehensive when booting up this game. However, despite that, I can confidently say that by the time the credits rolled I was absolutely surprised and beyond pleased with the experience overall.
To begin with, the art is, as always, an absolute treat. The art style with these games are incredibly well done and something that I personally really love. I can't quite explain why I love it so much, but I do.
Secondly, the characters, their personality, and their motivations are much more engaging and extremely well done than in Dead Plate in my opinion. It truly is an achievement to pack in so much with so little time. For a game that is at most 40 minutes, (if you go around interacting with every object and hearing all the dialogue), there is a shocking amount of depth present here.
Third, the gameplay itself while incredibly simple is more than enough to engage the player and makes the player actually think.
And of course last but not least, the story. In my opinion, the story while basic was really well done and paced extremely well. I really enjoy this take on, "atonement". It just works so well in so many ways that I would love to go into for this review, however I have written enough as is.
All in all, I think everyone who worked on this game did a fantastic job in every department. I highly recommend supporting them however you can. I can't wait to see more of your work in the future.
Thank you so much for the wonderful time and I hope you all have a pleasant day!
I thoroughly enjoyed this. A short and sweet experience. It was hard for me to figure out what to do, but I believe that's just due to my lack of experience with RPG-Maker type games. The story didn't feel the need to be complicated and the main character made complete sense. 8/10.
The concept on this game is amazing!! I also love the Dead plate reference :)) (I believe that was a reference! Red-haired person and a dark-haired person sitting together)
SPOILERS
I also loved the revenge topic/concept, it felt perfect, just "You blame me for murder? I blame you 100x worse <3"
what a truly fantastic game. the atmosphere was chock full of depth and detail, and i could almost envision everything, from the bride to the cake cutting knife. the music was wonderfully recorded and played, roping the player into such perfectly executed game mechanics and such. quite literally i could feel the brimming rage floating out of the main character, the shock and fear that the bride felt at the mention of her old friend. instrumentals led me through so many emotions and feelings. i believe from a storyline, plot, and aesthetic view this is easily rachel's greatest works. the improvement is very noticeable too. all in all literally a fantastic game that captivated me. please keep releasing these masterpieces :)
STUDIO INVESTIGRAVE NEVER MISSES OML. it was so good, and honestly it's a perfect twist of not knowing whether the mc was in the right or wrong. also the break from toxic yaoi and moving to toxic yuri was a breather LOL, i loved every second of this game. can't wait for the next project!!!!
Made sure to stay away from any possible yt playthroughs or spoilers till I played it myself and DAMN this was such an amazing game, after playing dead plate, I played your three other games, but this one is my favorite so far. Plus the mc is too fine omg
AMAZING GAME! I enjoyed the game alot and loved the mc alot too (SHES SO HOT)! I knew this was going to be good since i played dead plate before and was so excited to play this one due to the protg being a woman and ofc cause YURI LOL! 10/10 game for sure!
Condemning Bok-su's actions not because she shouldn't have ruined Da-jeong's life, or because she shouldn't have been willing to sink to the depths of any crime, risking life in prison or death itself, all in name of a revenge that could never hope to fulfill her-
But because my man Myeong-hoon seemed like a bona fide sweetie pie!!! Go kill someone ELSE Bok-su!!!! You big stupid poopoo head!!!!!
Girl I got news🍾, he is a cheater and that's why groom friends believe Da-jeong would kill him out of jealousy. No matters how sweet he look, cheater come from in every type of fonts😔
I loved this game so much :D I've played through and enjoyed all of racheldrawsthis's games and I really enjoyed the story in this one, it's gotta be one of my faves :> so basically play this game if you havn't and once you're done go play their other games
this art style is so appealing to me, ive played some of the other games and this one is my favorite out of ALL of them!!! the characters add such a attraction to this game, and the storyline is so perfect aughh
Very engaging playthrough, loved the sprite style in this one. SIG shines brighter than any when it comes to concise and thrilling narratives. Keep doing what you do.

Sorry but I can't see Bok-su as a girl as that's totally a guy in my eyes.
(I know the characters in the game calls Bok-su a She/Her, so I know Bok-su is a girl but its just my brain not seeing her as a girl.)
But anyway ignore my rambling as the game is great and tells a great story.
yeah looked at Bok-su again and yeah now I can see boobs.
Some women look masculine, this is such a weird take.
right like do all women gotta have gigantic bazonkers to be women??
FR
I never said that a woman need that as you are the one who is saying it.
Just my brain being weird thats all as I know she is a girl and all but my stupid brain just being in buffer mode 😆

He's not actually a cheater, it's a lie Bok-su made up so Da-jeong would look guilty with a reason to kill
will this be available for Linux soon???
