I really enjoyed this game and will definitely replay it soon!
That being said, I played as apathetic and with low supernatural and, as has been mentioned before in this thread, failed A LOT of the stat checks, which was a bit frustrating. I also couldn’t solve any of “the three problems”. So yeah, looking forward to replaying with different stats and hopefully getting a better ending!
I got bored, trying to shake an art block, and this game inspired me. Have a floating headshot :3
What I’d picture my fmc would look like.
AHHHH FAVE AS OF LATE!!! I love mystery/horror and ahhh Rex huhu best boi. Tbh want to romance Caleb, but I can’t seem to find the right choices to do so and I need time in between because I get really lazy to read through the same thing over and over. Love love love it! Although it kind of reminded me of a game in choices called it lives in the woods. Kind if the same concept, but far apart in story. Thank you for the awesome game!
Just to share my first playtrough:
MC was charismatic, fog whisperer, cinnamon roll- basically a mary sue almost was with Rex and brought him back to life while Ennis was exorcised as well. Only got 2 out of 3 objectives done, but still pretty happy either way.
I always go for Suyeon- as I imagine mc to be this psychic korean chick hehe!
I’m actually really bummed that I couldn’t romance Diego HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Anyway, it took me three hours to finish the game, and it was surreal af. I’m not a giant fan of horror games but this the only exception. Loved it!
But, seriously, make Diego a romance option.
I’ve been replaying this until I can get all of the achievements but I’m stuck on the last five. If anyone could help I would be super grateful.
1) An Unlikely Pair - How do I get Diego and Ashley together? I’ve been doing everything with Diego, encouraged him to ask her out, I just can’t figure it out. I’ve tried several times and the furthest I’ve gotten their relationship percentage to is 59%.
2) A Grave Matter - What the heck is the “terrible wrong” and how do I do it?
3) The Weight of Grief - “Lose someone dear to you” Where in the story is this supposed to happen?
4) Noble Sacrifice & 5) Goodbye Friend - they talk about the ultimate sacrifice but what situation do I go into to get to this point? I’m guessing it’s determined on how you decide to confront the Fog Beast but I don’t know?
So, this game-feels like taking Stranger Things, a mystery book and various ghost stories in a blender and making a wonderful horror smoothie about the past, regret and revenge, and even a touch of a nature message.
Really made you feel like one of the gang and that you knew at least a bit about the town, even as the set-up helps you ease into it as an outsider. Also has a decent amount of replayability, with the various romances that felt pretty natural( went for Anjua[?], though sadly my ending sunk the ship as collateral) and the eventual multiple goals that are involved.
I also do like that, while our little gang has their archetypes, they are able to break out of them. That, along with the balanced take on a lot of characters, gives a very much appreciated human feel to the characters in general, further helping the immersion and quality.
Skill system was pretty well done, and the choices were pretty clear for the most part. I feel that the skill checks are a touch rough;though that could partially be due to running it mostly blind with my skills.
All in all, if you want a nice supernatural mystery CYOA and you’re currently waiting in agony for the next Wayhaven book, this will certainly fill that void.
Hi, in order for the spoiler tag to work. You have to use the code per paragraph
Thanks. It’s my first post.
Can anybody help me get the poly achievement with Rex and Ennis?
I’m only starting and having a hard time figuring out the right choices.
Like when Anuja was upset about I meeting Ennis,I tried all the 4 options with same capabilities and our relationship dropped every time.Then I took Kirill to confront Ennis,same thing happened again with Ennis.
Are these scripted or was I boosting all the wrong capabilities?
How’s your highest capability? I guess maybe you need more than 65.
My perception and otherworldly are more than 65,guess they are both useless in these 2 situation?Or I need more than 1 capability to succeed an option?
I always pick I distract Anuja with light conversation. And I take Kirill too, though I’m not sure which one is needed…
Thanks,is this the status when you reach the mentioned choices?
Yep! Exactly~
How’d you get to romance Rex. I did everything for him… (don’t know how to hide spoilers) but you get what I mean. I did it, but he still didn’t love me. Alas, I was alone.
Were you able to kiss Rex on the boat in the ‘dream’ sequence in chapter 7? I feel like that may have something to do with completing the romance route. You have to pick one of the options were you admit to having feelings for him, and you have to pass the relationship stat. that’s one thing I thought of that could have been overlooked.
Read this in 2 days. AMAZING story. Ready to try the different paths now
I played around and got a couple of them.
With Diego and Ashley, you basically have to give him tips about hanging out with her and later on in the story tell him to be bold and write a private message. With both, you need charismatic stats.
Noble Sacrifice is where you have to be mean to everyone throughout the whole story and then when you choose the option to negotiate with the Fog Beast, you offer yourself as a sacrifice.
I thought the Grave Matter achievement came with vandalizing Rex’s grave, but when I decided to do it Ashley saw me halfway through and I didn’t get anything. So I’m still not sure if that’s how you get it, or if Ashley was the factor that prevented it (and if you needed something like agility to avoid her).
Just finished reading it. I always forget the stats in this games. So basically i was choosing some choices that didn’t agree with the stats which led to the death of me and the other characters.
