Regardless, I enjoyed the game but it wasn't exactly my favourite. Don't get me wrong, I really enjoyed it and the story within. Yes, there is indeed a story underneath it. Yes, the story of the 5 murdered people inside the building is indeed tied to Ed. He mentions it. But just in case you missed it, he was there when the murders went down. If I remember correctly, he looked up to the guy. He believed what the guy had said, which was (If i remember correctly) that if you murdered someone who was negative(?) whatever you did in the past would be cleansed. Ed had done something wrong. He had murdered someone during a 'black out'. If you go through the game, and pay attention to what is said and put things together, you'll get the story. If you play through expecting notes -yes there are notes in this- like in the Crooked Man, then you'll miss some story.Either way, Keith has taken such a beating, he's a friggin tank.. 7/10 IF you use a walkthrough. 4/10 otherwise. Probably the weakest of the four games in the series. Still, I would recommend it.Personally, I bought the game to support the dev and then downloaded a freeware version with minimal voice acting, because I dislike the VA in this game (though the VA is still head and shoulders above the previous game).Pros:-Great graphics-Unique and well-written characters-A few interesting puzzles-A well-told plot about a character who is going through some very relatable personal struggles.Cons:-A *LOT* of back-tracking.-A *LOT* of empty rooms, often forcing you to systematically check every individual room in hopes of finding something.-Many of the puzzles are very flaggy. There was more than one moment where I figured out the solution to a puzzle, but the game wouldn't actually let me solve it because I needed to interact with the environment more.-Requires you to replay the whole game with no changes in order to unlock the second good ending and character bios.I recommend playing it if you liked the other games, but *USE THE VGPERSON WALKTHROUGHS*. They explain how to the puzzles without spoiling any of the plot.. So this, like the other games in the series, has a lot of problems, some of which are more pronounced than in the others. The scenes feel overwritten at times, the puzzles become very obtuse (moreso a problem in Boogie Man), and in this game in particular, there's a whole ton of backtracking through very similar looking rooms, many of which serve no purpose. I would just recommend using a guide, as the puzzles are so obscure that you'll wind up wasting your time trying to figure things out for yourself. And as far as the story goes, it too, has a lot of problems. For one, the setup feels too much like a random coincidence. Will is a troubled teenager who has run from home for reasons at first unclear. He meets up with David, the protagonist of the Crooked Man, but eventually wanders off into the night and winds up at some sort of abandoned facility. From there, his pet rat Pop who also talks to him (and it's even more hokey than it sounds) runs off into the facility and Will sets off to find him. Along the way he meets some familiar faces as well as a few new ones. And the thing is, not much actually happens until the final chunk of the game, which is filled with revelation after revelation. Like the others, the cameos by previous characters don't really feel like anything other than just that since none of them mention the events of prior games. They could have been just as easily brand new characters and not much would have changed. And as for those revelations, some are intriguing, others are just baffling, and the overall arc almost feels like there's too little going on until, like I said, the very end.And yet.I found myself liking this game the most out of all of them.Despite all of the flaws that I have rambled on about, I loved the mood this game conjures, particularly within its opening act. The series has always had very on the nose writing (might be a translation issue) and the voice acting is just as weird and inconsistent as in the Boogieman, but somehow, the winter setting, which is different from every other game in the series, just feels to perfect to me. And even though the aforementioned facility the game takes place in is very repetitively designed and drab looking, I was still absorbed by the nice atmospheric touches. There's a fine line between understated and dull and to me, the mood falls on the right side of the line. And yes, even though the story has some problems, (in many ways there are more than in the other games, all of which had their own issues) I think I liked this one the most, primarily because of the story surrounding the antagonists. Again, some of the revelations don't fully make sense/ feel under developed, but I still found myself really grabbed by the back story and setting.The Strange Man series as a whole is a strange beast. For every flash of brilliance, there's a flaw of some sort, particularly in the frustratingly obtuse game design that plagues every installment. I have seen horror games done through RPG maker much better (Close Your Eyes, Corpse Party). To be honest, outside a few moments here and there, they aren't even particularly scary (although, yeah, Sandman is definitely supposed to be a bit more whimsical than the others). And even though I couldn't bring myself to finish the Boogie Man (I just looked up the rest of the story), on the whole I still enjoyed my time with the series, warts and all. Even though the dialogue feels too on the nose and the design has some serious problems in every game, I enjoy the titles for their ambition. Yes, the games don't always meet that ambition (this is most evident in how, even though there are characters from other games in each new one, past events don't seem to have much bearing on the current conflict). But there is still something about them that manages to stand out from other mediocre RPG maker titles.Do with all that what you will. This game has a lot of problems and is likely to bore most people who are expecting more plot driven stuff like the previous games. But this one was my series favorite despite all that, and I would likely play more if Uri develops the spinoffs that are supposedly in development.. 7/10 IF you use a walkthrough. 4/10 otherwise. Probably the weakest of the four games in the series. Still, I would recommend it.Personally, I bought the game to support the dev and then downloaded a freeware version with minimal voice acting, because I dislike the VA in this game (though the VA is still head and shoulders above the previous game).Pros:-Great graphics-Unique and well-written characters-A few interesting puzzles-A well-told plot about a character who is going through some very relatable personal struggles.Cons:-A *LOT* of back-tracking.-A *LOT* of empty rooms, often forcing you to systematically check every individual room in hopes of finding something.-Many of the puzzles are very flaggy.

They explain how to the puzzles without spoiling any of the plot.. Replaying The Strange Man series of games on Steam has been a lot of fun, and ending it off with this, the only one of the four that I hadn't played until now, was a pleasant surprise.I'd read multiple reviews before playing this, with most that I saw being astonishingly negative towards the game. In truth, it's actually pretty decent, especially when you play through it the second time for the "true good ending." That being said, it isn't perfect, by any means.I was disappointed by how easy this game was. As a huge fan of the third game, The Boogie Man, I expected more of a challenge than just two chase minigames at the end of the good endings. Even then, it wasn't that hard to get through those, as there were plenty of hints beforehand that told you how to make it through.I honestly got bored with this game, as it was just "go find these items, do this, and continue to the next building." I expected more, especially seeing as this is the last of the series, in the chronological sense.It distinguishing features from the last three games were nice, but they could've been done better. Rather than have a character that occurred constantly called "The Hanged Man," it was simply a vision, as one could call it. I suppose you could say that it was mentioned everytime the tarot card of the same name came up , but even then, it wasn't the same as having a man with a crooked neck chase you, or to worry about catching up to a serial killer.As a final note on the bad parts of this game, the truly good ending, which is obtained by taking the same course of actions for Good End One in the first play, was both a great ending, and a disappointing one. If you take The Hanged Man alone, it was a fantastic ending for the game. From the final, satisfying farewell to the small side scenes you don't get to see in the first version. Flip it around, though, and it was pretty stale for the overall series. David, Sophie, and Keith's ends all felt very empty. There's a few details and hints that some of them will meet up again, but for the main characters of the past three games, it feels as though they were overlooked in some aspects.Onto the positive parts, I'll start with a declaration to challenge some of the mentioned bad parts. This game is good, which is why this is a positive review. I'm not going to let my nickpicking drag this game down, because it was actually a lot better than I expected it to be, given the remarks I'd previously seen about this game.Going in blind was a good experience, as well. While I was replaying the others, I was concerned about whether or not this one would live up to the design of the past three, and it did, in its own unique way.The protagonist became more interesting as time went on, with new memories and secrets being unveiled as the game went on. The bad endings and the good ending were especially interesting, as each had their own twist to the events that had unfolded, with different concepts being used in each. Two factors effected them, and they were rather easy to catch on to, but nonetheless, it pulls one to the end of their seat, either through adrenaline or simple, saddened despair.To conclude this review, I'd like to thank Uri and vgperson for their work on this series. I've loved it ever since The Crooked Man came out, and I can't wait to see those two new games that were mentioned at the end of this one! And to those who may be reading this and have only played The Crooked Man [as many have], I highly recommend that you play the other games. If you love a good story as much as I do, then you'll have one heck of a great time.Stay groovy, and don't forgot to blame it all on the Boogie~.. another gem on rpg maker loved the whole series and sad to see it go just seeing all the protags from the other games made me grin like a dirty b**** doe Up to 80% off in the Golden Week Sales!: In celebration for the new Era "Reiwa" in Japan, we are taking part in the Golden Week Sale on Steam!We have up to 80% off the Playism Catalog, so dive in now while sales last!Check out the full list on our Publisher Page.Check out all the exciting games on sale now! ---Playism.
