Hold Me Still

good job on the short game! (if its in Korean even while on English setting: exit game, switch it to Korean and then back to English. That should fix it)

Hold Me Still is a very short mystery game that I found more emotionally affecting than I expected. I am investigating a friend's disappearance by searching through their house, collecting clues and trying to understand what happened. I liked how the simple point and click structure keeps the focus on the mystery rather than burying the story underneath complicated mechanics. The gameplay is mainly about examining objects and connecting clues together. I can click around the house, inspect different items and drag objects into place when needed. I enjoyed this because even simple interactions feel meaningful when I am trying to reconstruct what happened. The small environment also makes me want to search carefully instead of rushing through it. The mystery is where the game gets its emotional weight. As I discover more information, the story becomes increasingly serious and focuses on depression, emotional trauma and suicide. I think the game handles these themes in a direct way rather than turning them into cheap horror, which makes the investigation feel much more personal than a standard missing person mystery. The pixel art presentation is simple but effective. The house fee…

No English. This is not a game. Not even point and click visual novel. You ring the door bell, move the pot, pick up the key, get in the house which has two spaces, turn on the light pick up two batteries, shove them in to mouse to turn the PC on. Pick up trashes and read bunch Korean letters. And Finally pick up the trash you could not find before trigger and that is it. Yes this is made by a 14 years old and janky as hack. Short as his life and his knowledge. No fun nor serious. Ironically, for cause it is short you don't have to waste much of your time. This is way better than other Mining hacked malwares and pay to win slops. But still no idea why this got 'Very Positive'. 에휴 시발. 개-발자 양반은 보씨요. 내가 무료게임은 보통 다 추천하는데 내용도 ㅈㄴ없고 시발 불성실해 보이는데 또 애새끼가 만들었다니까 좀 불쌍하기도 하고 그런데 압도적 긍정이니까 나 하나 비추 박아도 별 일 없을 것 같아서 비추 박는다 달게 받아라. 이걸 추천 한 새끼들은 뭐냐 진짜 나만 당할 수 없다 이건가. 시발 스토리가 없는데 스토리 풍부에다가 태그건 새끼는 누구냐 진짜. 압도적 긍정일 때 스크린 샷 찍어서 나중에 포트폴리오로 잘써라.

The game have error i choose english language and after i enter his friend house it turns to korian?! i tried not to choose like or dislike but it gave me no choice ;( sorry

The premise of this game sounded great, but unfortunately, even when selecting the English language, all subtitles and images were in Korean language. I tried using Google translate to help with the translations so I could still follow along with the story, but unfortunately some of the captions flickered off the screen before Google Translate could capture the characters to translate. The menu on screen was minimal and hitting ESC did not bring up a basic game menu like most games have as default. In order to quit the game I had to CTRL-ALT-DEL to end task. I gave up quickly on the game as the progression was not very intuitive, especially with the language barrier.

Short and simple game, but an important message.
