"She asked me why I was so angry all the time. And I told her -- because it’s a dirty deal. It’s Russian roulette and utterly unfair. The cards I’d been dealt, any player would have passed. I chose to be angry instead. But Marie, my friend Marie, she got me a new deck. And suggested that I deal again." - Kelsey

What I loved most about the game was its beautifully designed room, filled with warm lighting, detailed objects, and a cozy, nostalgic atmosphere. By exploring Marie's belongings, reading notes, and interacting with everyday items, I slowly uncovered the story of two close friends and the mystery of what happened between them. The gameplay is simple and relaxing, focusing on exploration and environmental storytelling instead of difficult puzzles. Rather than telling the story directly, the game lets you piece everything together through the items you find and the memories they reveal, which made the experience even more engaging. It's a free game, and I highly recommend Marie's Room to anyone who enjoys cozy exploration games, emotional stories, and relaxing walking simulators.7 found this helpful
Imposible que Marie no haya estado enamorada de Kelsey, I SWEAR TO GOD
I really like story and choice based games, and this game is perfect for me. It is a short story based game, and the soundtrack is awesome. I really enjoyed playing the game and would recommend everyone.
This story was effing amazing!!! Even if you can be aware of some clues about the ending, it did surprised me! I enjoyed playing this amazing gem of a game. Intuitive and doable puzzles, lovely voice acting and a nice aesthetic. And this is not a "it's so good for a free game", it's a "this is an amazing game and I would have gladly pay to play it". It gives Life is Strange and Gone Home, but shorter.
A great game. I loved the story. Love Marie. Cried.
Like it says in the description. It is short. But if you're fond of the Life is Strange series, and you're longing for that atmosphere, you will cherish what little time you'll be spending here.
