Hail Sithis. Best of luck writing this and I can’t wait to see more! 😮 Rather interesting concept – reminds me somewhat of ‘Seven Days in Purgatory.’ ---

very interesting already. im very fond of stories that give me the choice to mercilessly kill people or just stories where i kill people alot. cant wait how the ros would fit into all this mess and how the pc would react to them having feelings for the people they were supposed to kill. cant wait to kill more people lmao ---

Poisoned apple time😉 Always love to see another mystery/horror story! Gotta be an instant buy for me when you’re done. Keep up the good work! ---

Wow, just played through the demo and I love it! Just one suggestion — near the end, there’s a line that implies the MC drinks alcohol. Maybe you could make that a choice instead so as to accommodate players that don’t drink? Again, great story and looking forward to more! ---

just finished playing and i have to say, this is a really lovely demo!! your writing is extremely descriptive and the prologue does a great job at hooking readers in. the only suggestion i have is headers (visual or written) to let the reader know location and time changes. this would apply great for the dream sequence, as i was initially confused (though perhaps that’s the intention). wishing you luck with the game regardless \<3 ---

I really enjoyed this. I’m so glad there’s an IF where I get to be the killer! 😈 ---

I’m already hooked from just the prologue! I love reverse-troupe stories, and stories where you play as a morally ambiguous character, so I can already tell this will develop into one of my favorites (: Can’t wait to read more! ---
