The Rainsdowne Players

Originally a $3.99 game that went Free. I was expecting funnier conversations, while most of it just felt like rpg npc dialogue. The gameplay itself lost me after a few minutes.

Игра «The Rainsdowne Players» — необычная атмосферная приключенческая история, сочетающая драму и мистику. Сюжет разворачивается вокруг трагедии, где игрок принимает роль участника драматического клуба, погруженного в мрачные тайны. Графика стильная, но с минимальной детализацией, что подчеркивает эмоциональную глубину сюжета. Геймплей линейный, с акцентом на диалоги и выбор, влияющий на развитие событий. Звуковое сопровождение и музыка создают напряженную атмосферу. Хотя игра короткая и не без технических недочетов, она оставляет сильное впечатление благодаря оригинальному сценарию. Рекомендуется тем, кто ценит психологическую драму и нестандартные повествования.

"The Rainsdowne Players" is a poorly made 2D retro pixel comedy themed JRPG, which I guess is a break from your more usual high school anime club dropout fanfiction stuff you usually see in these kinds of games, for a comedy/theatre theme instead, which is worse. The "comedy" writing is pure cringe, not really substantively different from the aforementioned anime club dropout fanfiction stuff. There's a few minigames/puzzles etc etc, but given the absolutely godawful visual and technical implementation, it's no wonder this was a massive flop. Amazingly this is not an RPG Maker asset flip, instead, for some reason they used GameMaker Studio, which is trash and has never been responsible for a successful game. It's the kind of thing that's intended to teach some of the basics, and make small toys and demos to pass around with friends, and should never be used as a substitute for professional game development. So it's no wonder this was a dismal failure. This features really godawful, lazy pixelcrap "art" instead of real graphics. It's hard to say if this was because the developer didn't have the skill to do the job of creating 3D visuals, or couldn't afford to hire someone wh…

wow, that was pretty good

This is a fun, simple game that requires a little bit of skill in reflexes to play. The idea of building up your fan base for your two person acting troupe is cute, and collecting cards and getting check marks in Snail's hint book were what really kept me playing this game before the story started to kick in. It's a very small environment that you're playing in, and you spend a lot of time playing the same mini games over and over to earn coins and unlock new cards which can be pretty big cons if you don't really enjoy collecting as a game concept. It's a genuinely interesting little town so if you like to talk to NPCs and complete collections, you'll like this game. There's three ways you can put on performances, so when you get tired of one you have two others you can switch too. There's also a card game and a shooting game where you can simply earn money and not worry about putting your ideas in order for a play. I do want to note that I personally had a lot of trouble getting the timing right for the singing performance, so in reality I only had two options for putting on a performance. Again I don't know if this is just me, or if the timing really is off for the singing per…
