ABOUT

The Letter is an interactive, horror/drama visual novel inspired by classic Asian horror films. Told through an immersive branching narrative, the game puts the players into the shoes of seven characters as they find themselves falling prey to a vicious curse plaguing the Ermengarde Mansion for centuries.

In this game, your choices will shape and drive the story forward: will you mend a relationship on the verge of collapse, or will you let it fall apart? Will you risk saving them, despite the consequences, or leave them to die a gruesome death? The fate of all the characters is in your hands.

This game might be one of the best ones I've ever downloaded and paid for but recently I've not been able to open it anymore, which means all my progress is lost — and I had 100%. Like, I played this obsessively until I had unlocked absolutely ev-e-ry-thing. (I would add an image to show my issue, but I'll just describe: it sticks at the loading screen and after a few seconds says "unknown error occurred, please try later") I'll update to 5 stars when I can enter it again.

By far the best game I've ever played, definitely worth buying. It's a long game, much reading and MANYY choices to make. You could play this for hours straight and still not finish it. It's the most fun to restart and play the different options to see what happens when you kill of a certain character. It's really interesting!! Really recommend!!

I wish there were just a few more choices, QTEs, or minigames. The game is still cool though. The entire playthrough can change drastically depending on prior choices, so replays can feel very fresh. Also having issues with the achievements. They show up in the game, but not Google Play.
