About Corpse Party (2021)
✦ AI summary
Uncover the dark secrets of a cursed elementary school as you navigate a haunted alternate reality, making choices that determine your survival and your friends' fates against vengeful spirits. Stunning retro pixel art, fully voiced Japanese dialogue with immersive 3D binaural audio, and branching narratives create an intensely atmospheric horror experience that rewards exploration and careful decision-making.
A friendship ritual gone awry transports high school student Ayumi Shinozaki and her friends to an alternate reality version of a tragedy-stricken institution that stood on the site of their own school long ago. As the vengeful spirits of elementary school students threaten their lives and their sanity, their only hope of survival–much less escape–is to uncover the chilling details surrounding the murders of those trapped before them.

The game will do everything to make you empathize with the characters while making them as stupid and obnoxious as possible. Apparently the only response girls here have to death/horror is crying while screaming as loud as possible (this is 30% of the game). Also I don't know why most of chapter 3 is a 14yo girl pretending to be 7 who absolutely has to take a piss but she can't because unfortunately all the bathrooms have collapsed and she's unable to do that in a corner instead. By the way, I guess privacy is more important than making sure you don't get separated / murdered alone by one of the many ghosts in the school, unsurprisingly she [spoiler]almost gets killed because of it while her brother was waiting for her inside the building[/spoiler]. This is completely unnecessary, it has no purpose to the story and you will have to endure this weird and stupid section of the game. The gameplay is also pretty bad imo, a lot of backtracking which was usually something I don't care about but I really feel it on this game with its excruciatingly slow movement and sometimes huge maps on the last chapters.

a wonderfully narrated nonlinear opus still worth experiencing even in this day and age; though at times suspicious of extra chapters as a bunch of retcons sewing up the glaring plotholes here and there, i've actually come to really appreciate how they complement the narrative all in all. i guess even if they are retcons i don't really mind it... definitely will be grabbing the book of shadows next one of these days 8/10 i would say2 found this helpful

This is the game that made me love CP (corpse party). I have seen some stuff about CP (corpse party) being "bad" but I think it is amazing. I will look at more CP (corpse party) when I decide to buy the next one. (CP means corpse party btw)
Let's hunt some corpses! Played this game on an emulator a long time ago and it being refreshed with extra chapters and content than before I really enjoyed finishing this one!
very good i just wish i got achievements but it wont let me :(
