Description

The game revolves around Tōru and his girlfriend Mari, who are suddenly drawn into a horrible murder mystery while on vacation at a skiing lodge. The first part of the games develops as a crime-solving adventure. Additional murders occur if the player is unable to find clues, and the story culminates into a horror movie-esque ending.

<report>This one is pretty good but too many unnecessary routes and plots. I don't know if the author try to make a pure mystery thriller story or trying to mix it with supranatural elements. But I really enjoyed the true ending tho.
I really recommend this one if you are looking for mystery thriller visual novel. But don't expect too much.

<report>OG mystery VN from Chunsoft, lots of choices and routes, and the solid writing makes it enjoyable despite the dated graphics. Banshee's Last Cry is the mobile English port of it (no longer available), whereas the Rinne Saisei version is a remake that adds voice acting, character sprites and additional routes.

<report>You probably won't agree with me, but I think this game should really be made into a soft-core Eroge, particularly when the Windows version is already rated as 18+ and clearly not able to make any sale to kids in current state anyway. After all, the story alone of this game is just too short and it really needs something as a filler to enrich the gameplay.

If you are too smart then the game is already over in a few minutes and there isn't that much fun for you. It is a shame, because I doubt people who can figure out the truth early by themselves have the incentive to explore all those bad endings anymore. (At least I don't.) Even if they do, there still won't be much fun for them because... Read more »
