Everdine - A Lost Girl's Tale

beautiful art of the whole map and characters overall, the journey to find items were fun and not repetitive, just a bit hard. love this developer and their own style of making games

Everdine - A Lost Girl’s Tale has such a great dark atmosphere! It’s the perfect mix of cozy exploration and creepy horror, creating a charming but unsettling fairy-tale vibe. If you enjoy cozy games with a darker twist, I definitely recommend giving this one a try! Plus, Everdine is on the shorter side so you can definitely knock this game out in one sitting!

Everdine is a really pretty RPG Maker game with great music and art. It's called horror but feels more like a spooky fantasy adventure since it skips the cheap jump scares. You mostly solve puzzles and run from stuff, which is a lot of fun. The death scenes are really cool and make you want to find them all. The worst part is definitely the main villain. You learn absolutely nothing about them. It feels like the bad guy and their servants were just thrown in because the game needed an enemy. You have no idea who they are or why they are doing any of this. There's even a villain castle you never get to explore. Because of this, "random weird stuff" feel totally out of place. It's really hard to be scared when you don't even know what you're running from. Because the bad guy is so ignored, the endings feel pretty rushed. You meet a lot of cool people but they don't matter at the end. Only you and one other character change the outcome, so you never find out what happens to everyone else, which is a bummer. The story is easy to guess, but the good ending is still enjoyable. Even with the weak villain, it's a great example of how creative RPG Maker games can be, and I'd easily recomm…

I really really wanted to like this game but there is a huge delay between when you press the arrow keys and when the character responds, and that delay in seconds is large enough for you to easily be caught by the monster that is chasing you. The story was entertaining, but the controls just are not it- I switched from my keyboard to a controller to see if it was my keyboard being faulty, but got the same delay with the controller so I can concur it's the game itself.

Beautiful and intriguing from beginning to end.

I really don't like games where things chase you, and the first half hour is just. Being chased the game. So if you like being chased this game is for you!
