The Retro Exorcist

The Retro Exorcist is an inventive supernatural visual novel that takes the familiar idea of demonic possession and gives it a distinctly gaming-focused twist. Rather than investigating haunted houses or ancient ruins, the story revolves around spirits inhabiting video game discs and cartridges. You play as a former Vatican priest who, after losing his previous position, ends up working for a questionable organization specializing in unusual exorcisms. The bizarre circumstances immediately establish a mixture of mystery, dark humor, and paranormal storytelling that helps the game stand apart from more conventional horror visual novels. It was developed and published by Chestpain Studios. The central gameplay mechanic revolves around communicating with the entities trapped inside these games. An exorcism is not simply performed by selecting the correct ritual or defeating an enemy. Instead, the player must question each spirit and investigate its past. The objective is to understand who the entity once was and uncover the information necessary to release it.

i love this game so much, i don't feel a lot of involvement from games like these, but this one kind of hit. also i really love Eve's expressions, her expressions are so cheery and silly. the story line is super easy to follow, your choices influence the game in a good but not over the top way, so it feels more authentic. i just overall love this game and it was worth the time i put in for the 100%

I was a Creepypasta-fandom kid back in the day so it was really fun seeing the various "OH THAT CHARACTER" popups, and figuring out what certain ones were even references Fun gameplay, fun decision-choice stuff, 100% achievements was really difficult but I found the post on Itch.io with all the secret names. Can't wait to see more from this person with Mirror Drama

The Retro Exorcist is a free to play horror game that combines old school visuals with a creepy supernatural setting. You play as an exorcist who has to investigate strange locations and deal with paranormal activity. The biggest strength of the game is its atmosphere. The retro style makes everything look old and unsettling, while the dark environments and strange events create a good horror feeling. The game focuses more on exploration and atmosphere than constant combat. You have to look around, find clues and work out what is happening before dealing with the supernatural threats. The retro graphics are also a nice touch. Instead of trying to look realistic, the game uses a deliberately old fashioned style. This makes the game feel like something you might have played on an older console or computer. The horror works better because you are not always sure what is going to happen. Exploring an empty area and hearing something strange can be more effective than simply throwing enemies at you constantly. The biggest problem is that the gameplay is quite simple.
