I don’t know if anyone has left a comment about this, so here it is. The creator of this game is Vietnamese, and a common belief is that you can see spirits at night. That is why the mom found out that Ron was dead so late ; she was seeing his spirit, and the thought of him being dead never even crossed her mind until she came to the house in the morning. Also, I believe that when Ron tried to go save his dad, that’s when he is hiding from the police in the motel. That is probably when the dad starts hallucinating or starts seeing Ron. When Ron threw “the spell” into the room with the crying woman, that was the business card for the motel that shows up when the police are questioning the mother. That’s why the spell defeats Redface. At the end of the game, each child is in the place where they were hidden after they died. Freckles is in the fire (burned), the girl is in the pit (buried), and the blond boy is hidden in the trunk of a car. The reason why the dad’s “alter ego” was called Redface was because Ron associated the way he acted when he got drunk and *red in the face* with a whole new person. This is quite common for victims of abuse to do. I’ve been obsessed with this game and sobbing over it lol.
THANK YOU! I have been meaning to get my head around how the gameplay tells how the story works, with all the reasoning with how the Mom can still see her son.. also as well as Mr. Red face appearing ;-;
About where the children were, that’s where they died, not how. Because Ron was in a closet at the end, but he died of choking. So I can assume Freckles body was burned in a camp fire, or yes, he could have died that way. The girl in the pit was (once again) probably still buried alive, got a proper burial, or was killed and someone hide her body in the woods. As for the kid in the trunk, he would have been killed then hidden in the trunk.
As someone who grew up in an abusive household, games that so accurately capture the way a child processes and copes with abuse and rationalizes their parent's actions really hit home for me, and this game did it so beautifully. The reveal of what was actually happening was amazing and heartbreaking a 10/10 sad game. so happy you played this
im....sorry for what youve gone through, ive seen my farther more or less beat my mother up often, but...i think your past situation is worse then mine
It's so sad how he subconsciously knows what his parents did, and still worked so hard to help them and bring them back. That's something I wish some adults understood better. As kids we used to idolize our parents. They become the very representation of everything that is right and correct and just in the world. But kids still notice what goes on behind closed doors. And then their view of how a family should function becomes skewed and distorted. They will accept terrible treatment..and love you anyway. It's so unfair, and it hurts to see how relatable this is for so many people.
I wanna thank Eddie for being respectful towards the theme and subject matter of the game. I've been watching other youtubers play this and most of them tend to treat this like any other mascot horror game.
I know right ❤. That's why he's the best. And him dancing to the music or making funny comments wasn't him trying to be disrespectful. He just wanted to make it slightly lighthearted so as to feel more comfortable
19:36 Theory: Since the child would in the actual Lore be dead by now, what if the mom is mourning the child by using an ACTUAL doll or something that looks like her son and taking care of it?
Well the son is dead, as he is a ghost he’s only visible at night i think? And in the morning he disappears, that’s why the mom found out about his death when she took a day off.
No, we were playing as the childs spirit, using the doll(his memory) to help rebuild the events that happened prior to his death, finally revealing that Mr Red face was his dad drunk,none of what we saw was actually happening other than when we learning about Ron's death and the dad being arrested. It was revealed that Ron had made stories to hide the truth from himself, creating a infinite cycle of him reliving the memories, but when the doll had broken him out of the cycle, he was finally able to find peace and rest with the other dead children
You should check out Mother. It's a psychological horror game where you play as the mother of two kids, Kyle and Kayla. Your goal is to keep them alive at all cost and their deaths are PERMANENT. Only way to bring them back if they die is to delete your save file and start from the very beginning
the way that this game is based off a true story made me cry. After i played this the first time i was literally crying and i went downstairs to give my parents a hug. Ron was younger irl and his dad was blasting the radio that he used to access to closest to block out the sounds of his screams when he was choking him.
I spent part of my college career writing on video games as literature, and this is a game that is a prime example of how the interactivity and discovery mechanisms of the medium has a far greater impact than the text of a book or just watching a movie. you aren't constrained to just the words and you aren't forced into a time limit to figure out what's going on.
I feel that's in the same category as Among the Sleep because they don't exactly explain much of what's happening because they want you to understand the story visually and it's in a child's point of view journeying into a dreamlike world which is similar to his reality and the monster is depicted to be his alcoholic mother who divorced his father when she was drinking too much and he's actually discovering what happened between his mother and father, that is also beautiful and masterful storytelling.
(This is just how i veiwed certain parts of the game)! The symbolism in this game is wild. The doll having a loose neck and resembling your character represents how you died. The dad turning "red faced" likely represents how your cheeks get red when you drink too much. He was red face the whole time but the kid separated the two versions of his dad in his mind. And Since you're dead for the whole game, alot of other stuff is pieced together. The dad saying "please stop punishing me" when you try to bring him home with you is actually you haunting him for what he did. The father was red face, the only way to stop him was the card. The card lead the police to his motel which was the same room from the "please stop punishing me" scene. The monster (possibly redface) showing up when you touch the bottle could be a flashback to his drunk father being upset with him as he mentions happened previously.
Yeah but I think it’s more of the kid that jumped outta the fires body was burned after the parent abused and killed them and the kid in the trunk was also abused and killed then left in trunk and so on it’s just where they were left after they were killed
No. the kid in the campfire, that's how his parents hid the evidence. the girl in the hole, that's how the parents hid the evidence. The baby in the trunk, that's how the parents hid the evidence and the boy in the closet that's how his dad hid the evidence It's not how they died, it's how they are hidden.
Im not seeing a lot of people talk about this, but its basically said that Ron was killed on his birthday. In the opening scene, he gets sad that his mom didn’t give him a gift on his birthday, and we later find out that the opening scene if Ron replaying the night of his death over and over again, meaning his father snapped his neck in his birthday. I know it's nothing too groundbreaking but I think it makes the story 10x sadder because of that fact.
This game hit hard for me. I once lived through an abusive childhood, and this hurts to see everyone in the comments who also admitted to this. It does get better, guys. I'm now 17, and happy, living with my sister and mother that cherish and care for me. I hope all of you stay out of trouble, despite your childhood. I've had friends who turned out to have killed people, sold drugs and do them. I now no longer keep in contact with those people for my own and my family's safety. Do not follow in the footsteps of those who abused you. As a kid, you take examples from your parents... But don't take examples from those who take out anger on others. Bless all of you.
Bless you too, mijo.. i feel so much empathy for you, i could have never even imagined what the horrible things youve been through my guy. God bless you man. Im proud of you, youre so strong :).
After my parents finally split I went to another state to go to college and get away. Working and going to school was tough, but I am in my final semester and will graduate this December. It has been a rough ride but I am proud of the man I have become
Thank you I'm in a similar situation and I got in my feels DEEPLY. Like crying at how accurate the home life was, and just at the little details of the game that all represent something. And I want to thank Eddie personally, for taking in the hardships of the game, and it brings me peace knowing someone I'm a HUGE fan of understood. ❤❤❤❤
29:36 not sure if this was mentioned already, but I read somewhere that the developer is Vietnamese, and there's a belief there that souls can be seen at night time, which explains the reason why the mom could see him in their closet since she comes home late often. The one time she comes home during daytime, she doesn't see him hiding in their closet like usual which is why she rushes to her son's closet and sees his dead body finally. really adds depth to how sad, but well thought out this game is 😢
@@RaptorrawRDạ đúng rồi, mình nghe đến game là do đọc cmt nhiều người khen và giới thiệu tích cực lắm. Xong mình khá tò mò vì đó giờ ấn tượng của mình với game Việt chưa được nhiều lắm. Xem xong thì shock vl luôn vì quả game này chất và uy tín quá huhu.
grew up in a alcoholic and abusive environments, and im shocked i didnt cry at this, this hit a soft spot, staying in your own head, imagining things and making up stories cause its your brain trying to protect you from all the trauma, that shit hurt, brought me back to my childhood, especially cause things like stuffed animals and heavy on dolls were my form of coping as a kid, not that im not a kid anymore, fuckin 13, but my point stands
I need your guys help. So I don't know if my parents are abusive or not. I am not allowed on TH-cam but I sneak on it every night. My parents are pretty strict. If I get in trouble she'll spank,slap, or grab the skin under my chin and yells VERY loud. She was raised with abusive parents. My dad is respectful and kind but my mom not so much. I understand discipline but is this to much for little things?
That is absolutely way too much, if your mom beats on you for small mistakes or just anything you do at all, than that's not right in any way. It doesn't matter that she had abusive parents in that past, none of that has anything to do with you. You're always gonna make mistakes, it's part of being human, just as long as you learn from those mistakes. I hope she doesn't beat on you too often or too violenty. If she does, than she is an abusive parent as you questioned. Anything you do shouldn't have to resolve in to hitting you.
@@bearbearbearbear-f8q that's way too much I'm so sorry you have to deal with that have u tried to speak to ur dad about it or any other family member because hitting a child is not okay
As someone grew up with an abusive father until he was arrested, this game hits way too close to home. I started sobbing, I'm not even joking, lol. This game handles the topic accurately and respectfully, and oh my God it's so sad. Those poor kids.
Sad facts: 1, in the intro, the door swings 14 times, which resembles how long it took Ron’s mom to find his body (14 days). 2. When Ron’s mom finds you in the closet for the first time. Ron’s mom breaks her neck as the same as when Ron dies due to strangled by his dad. 3. Ron’s dead actually happened on his birthday.
I think at the end it actually shows how each child's body was discarded/hidden. The Girl was buried, the boys body was burned in a fire, and the last boys body was hidden in the back of a car trunk.
26:15 physically hurt my soul, i literally started sobbing once i realized everything, the crying effects were so real to me and i felt all my emotions crashing together at once. i love this game since it’s got a strong and deep meaning
coming from someone who grew up with and abusive father, i saw myself so much in ron. this game was absolutely amazing and hits home. thank you so much for playing this game eddi.
@@godly_forever It's not like that, it's about WHERE they were hidden. The sitting boy was thrown into the fire, the girl in the hole was buried, the boy in the car was hidden in the trunk, and if you pay attention, at the end of the game, we appear in the closet, where our "dad" hid us after murdering us. 😓
that's incorrect, it's actually how the person who killed them disposed of them One of their bodies was burnt, one was put into a trunk, one was buried and Ron was put into a closet
I’ve never seen a game create such a deep meaning. Everything didn’t make sense at first, but then everything did. I feel horrible for the children who have to go through this. I think we all know Eddie and gabby won’t do anything to hurt their baby.
it’s crazy cuz the game shows what happened to the bodies of the children after they were murdered: The ginger was burned, the girl was buried, and the blonde was thrown into the back of a truck..Ron was hidden in a closet. The dad snapping the child’s neck broke me, he didn’t look older than 7 :(
My mother was also abusive but when I got a bruise she tell me to say I fell or she would tell me they would take her away and I have to go to a even worse family...
That was so heartbreaking. From someone who lost a childhood friend to abusive parents, this hits hard. The fact that the child kept defending the parents is really facts and reality in most abusive relationships.
@@YW2324 I’m doing better. I’m much older now so it’s been almost 15 years since it happened. I still miss him but his parents did get their punishment.
@@SageStrawberries That's good to hear. It's horrible that there are people who do this. I'm glad you were able to move on with your life. Be well my friend 💪🏻🙏🏻
This game is too good and too sad. The way you were solvong your OWN murder case without yourself knowing is insane. I would've never expected it. And the children's refence for their deaths?? The reunion in the end? KABAKBSKSNSM
I played this game tonight and actually cried. the way when he would speak to the cat or something and said “well.. my dad sometimes hits or slaps me or yells at me”. It hurts, then when he would say he’s a good person after everything, then how the cat said “nope. he’s a bad bruce.”. dude. that’s sad. pure heartbreaking. and the worst part is, is that kids go through this bullshit. and then others make fun of them, or bully them, or anything negative. but you never truly know what’s going on inside someone’s home, mind, or anything. no matter what, don’t bully, because sb could have a life like this.
Being a victim of child abuse myself and making several excuses for my own father....this was ROUGH bro! I got out of that a long time ago. I feel for this imaginary kid dude! Some people don't deserve to be parents. You and gabby are going to make awesome and loving parents and I'm so excited for the both of you!!
@@thefrootloop9408 Of course ❤️. I'm glad you are doing better. Ya dreams can be unsettling sometimes. Especially if it's about a past trauma. It's horrible that there are people out there doing these types of things to children etc. I know Eddie will be a good dad. I know some might be annoyed that he danced to the music. But honestly sometimes laughter or being lighthearted can help you feel less nervous. He definitely meant no disrespect with that. 😊
@YW2324 Oh I know 😂 I was dancing right with him! Sometimes you gotta laugh with the best of em. Dark humor helps at times 😂 so does therapy. You are so very sweet! I wish ya all the best!
This game hits deep for me since I had a father very similar, and a mom that tried to help but was just too distant- I'm just glad the pilot has kickass parents like Eddie and Gabby.
Bruh I almost cried, I am too a mother but this hurted me to the core. The ending did become happy because the killer is found and behind bars, also the kid no longer feels no pain. I'd say this game is 50/50 of sad and happiness.
Redface is an imaginary version of his dad that he well.. imagined to help him cope with the fact his dad is one fat piece of shit :D To put simply, the dad is redface, the kid is the doll.
Since Ron’s dad is mr red face, when Ron died his dad stuffed his body in the closet. When mr red face gave Ron the doll, that was a representation of how Ron died. Hope this helps!😊
“His eyes are so far apart that when you play hide and seek and he hides behind a couch you can see both of his eyes peeking at you from both sides” -Eddievr 2024
My friend went through this type of abuse, she didnt tell me until the night before she died, so seeing this made me want to puke, cry, and scream all at once. I miss her and may she rest in peace. 😕💜
Saddest game I've watched in a while. The instant change in your face at 26:28. That scense broke every youtuber ive watched so far. I never realized that walking part ties into the dad saying stop punishing me
i just realized something. the reason why the kids door was locked is because the dad had locked it because thats where the kids body was at this entire time. the lore goes crazy
no the reason he couldn't open it was because he was denying the truth that's why the doll was trying to get him to reality so when he realized he was dead he was brought to reality which allowed him to open the closet.
30:19 has me watching this all over again. I'm literally balling my eyes out. This game is so amazing and unique, the story is fantastic and the end is a twist I never expected.
The death scene broke me and it was just tears from me from that point onwards. As a parent and an early years teacher this was a hard one to watch knowing that precious children are taken from this world too young through adults bad decisions.
Ya I mean I know he danced at the beginning. But how was he supposed to know it goes this dark? I mean he got bamboozled by the last so called horror games
Not so fun facts: in the intro of the game it takes 14 times for the door to finally open because it took the mother 14 days to find out ron was dead, when rons mother first sees him sitting in the closet, it parallels to her finally finding rons rotten body
The lord about the game 1: the door opening at the start it opens 14 times that's how long his mother found him in the closet 2: the doll inside of the box, color green right, that is his coffin 3: the kid call his dad mr red face because he drinks a lot of beer 4: the dolls neck that's how to kid dies
I just realized the dad killed the son on his birthday...T^T and the flashes when he saw the red-faced man was his life flashing before his eyes while being strangled 🥲
Bro, the people who told him to play this game. As a parent, yall can catch these hands. BRO IS BECOMING A DAD AND YALL RECOMMEND THIS SH*T????!!!!! WTHHHHHH 26:28
As someone with parents with addictions this really hit hard. My dad is a heavy drinker and has never put his hands on me, my brother, or mom but he does yell. When I was younger I tried to just push it away but now I’ve just accepted it instead. Knowing I can relate to these types of games to a certain point makes me just so sad. Especially because my younger brother has to go through the same things as me. This game was super well made and I’m honestly heartbroken that this is something some kids actually have to go through. I’m so happy he played this!!
The realization at 16:13 when Eddie realized that the kids were died and how he called it when he said “are we died?” Edit: dang I have 486 likes on my comment I never thought I would actually get that many likes before but what is going on in the comments (but really the game is a really sad game but why does the music have to have a banger to it 😭)
this hit so close to home because i had this one event where my dad was arrested, and they really portray how you feel as a kid in the moment and how you don’t really understand. i was crying at the end, this game was so well made.
28:41 I've now realized the reason the doll aws "broken" was because SPOILERS..... his dad strangled him alive, and since the doll was a copy of him, it had one too.
The way I started BALLING that's so sad I had to pause and cuddle my dog and cry for about 5 minutes before finally being able to bring myself to press play again 😭

Bro je didnt have à pc or play station in his room
@@YW2324 I commented this before watching the video all the way through.
Now there's only one thing I don't get - the creepy girl that appears in the closet after first attempt to hit frequency
So when He went into the kid’s room and stuffed something into the closet, was that after he killed Ron and then stuffed his body in his closet??! 😨
1.The kid died from getting on fire.
2.Kid get stuff in the trunk
3. The kid gets buried.
4 kids get stuff in the closet
The kid who got buried was the girl in the closets daughter
Yeah but I think it’s more of the kid that jumped outta the fires body was burned after the parent abused and killed them and the kid in the trunk was also abused and killed then left in trunk and so on it’s just where they were left after they were killed
The second kid was left to Rot in the trunk with his body
No. the kid in the campfire, that's how his parents hid the evidence. the girl in the hole, that's how the parents hid the evidence. The baby in the trunk, that's how the parents hid the evidence and the boy in the closet that's how his dad hid the evidence
It's not how they died, it's how they are hidden.
Yeah but it’s probably where their like parents hid the bodies if I’m being honest
Im not seeing a lot of people talk about this, but its basically said that Ron was killed on his birthday.
In the opening scene, he gets sad that his mom didn’t give him a gift on his birthday, and we later find out that the opening scene if Ron replaying the night of his death over and over again, meaning his father snapped his neck in his birthday.

@@RaptorrawRDạ đúng rồi, mình nghe đến game là do đọc cmt nhiều người khen và giới thiệu tích cực lắm. Xong mình khá tò mò vì đó giờ ấn tượng của mình với game Việt chưa được nhiều lắm. Xem xong thì shock vl luôn vì quả game này chất và uy tín quá huhu.
This is copied
This hit hard because I can relate with this game so much
It gets better, i promise. You'll see the light at the end of the tunnel eventually.
grew up in a alcoholic and abusive environments, and im shocked i didnt cry at this, this hit a soft spot, staying in your own head, imagining things and making up stories cause its your brain trying to protect you from all the trauma, that shit hurt, brought me back to my childhood, especially cause things like stuffed animals and heavy on dolls were my form of coping as a kid, not that im not a kid anymore, fuckin 13, but my point stands
Damn. I’m sorry you had to go through that.
@@Turtlevr2042 its alright, shit happens, not everyone can be born with a silver spoon in their mouth
I need your guys help. So I don't know if my parents are abusive or not. I am not allowed on TH-cam but I sneak on it every night. My parents are pretty strict. If I get in trouble she'll spank,slap, or grab the skin under my chin and yells VERY loud. She was raised with abusive parents. My dad is respectful and kind but my mom not so much. I understand discipline but is this to much for little things?
That is absolutely way too much, if your mom beats on you for small mistakes or just anything you do at all, than that's not right in any way. It doesn't matter that she had abusive parents in that past, none of that has anything to do with you. You're always gonna make mistakes, it's part of being human, just as long as you learn from those mistakes. I hope she doesn't beat on you too often or too violenty. If she does, than she is an abusive parent as you questioned. Anything you do shouldn't have to resolve in to hitting you.
@@bearbearbearbear-f8q that's way too much I'm so sorry you have to deal with that have u tried to speak to ur dad about it or any other family member because hitting a child is not okay

Sad facts: 1, in the intro, the door swings 14 times, which resembles how long it took Ron’s mom to find his body (14 days).
2. When Ron’s mom finds you in the closet for the first time. Ron’s mom breaks her neck as the same as when Ron dies due to strangled by his dad.
3. Ron’s dead actually happened on his birthday.
Oh god..
I did not think of that
Heres a disturbingly sad fact, the kid in the trunk only had underwear on.

@@BeyBladeMasterX-w9d at 15:55 we can see the little blonde boy has no shirt or pants on just the tidy whities.
At the end of the game it was so sad because, it showed how each child was killed, one of them was buried, the other was burned in the fire and.....
I think at the end it actually shows how each child's body was discarded/hidden. The Girl was buried, the boys body was burned in a fire, and the last boys body was hidden in the back of a car trunk.
@@R0tting.c0rpsez definitely what I was thinking. Because that last shot, our protagonist is in the closet where his dad hid his body
Well it actually just shows where they found all their bodies. We can only assume the rest…
what about that one disturbing one hiding in the closet? or should i say shoved dead in the closet...or alive? most likley dead...

26:15 physically hurt my soul, i literally started sobbing once i realized everything, the crying effects were so real to me and i felt all my emotions crashing together at once. i love this game since it’s got a strong and deep meaning
coming from someone who grew up with and abusive father, i saw myself so much in ron. this game was absolutely amazing and hits home. thank you so much for playing this game eddi.

Its sad because that kid sitting by the fire died alone the kid on the truck got hit and the kid in the hole fell and nobody could find him 😭😭😭😭😭
@@godly_forever It's not like that, it's about WHERE they were hidden. The sitting boy was thrown into the fire, the girl in the hole was buried, the boy in the car was hidden in the trunk, and if you pay attention, at the end of the game, we appear in the closet, where our "dad" hid us after murdering us. 😓
Hey bro
Are you a internet?
I think this game is teaching you that you’re never alone because real kids go through this and it’s just teaching you that you’re never alone ever
32:02 the girl was buried alive by her parents, the ginger boy was burned by his family, the blonde boy was killed and stuffed in a cars trunk
And the boy was killed by his father snapping his neck the unholy 4 squad
Or the boy might of been r@p3d then got stuffed in the trunk, bc he’s naked
@@AnaLatu-u2v I'm pretty sure the boy had a diaper on, since he looks like a baby
or the boy just died in the heat of the car but he decided to lay on the trunk in the game
that's incorrect, it's actually how the person who killed them disposed of them
One of their bodies was burnt, one was put into a trunk, one was buried and Ron was put into a closet
16:21 Eddie you single-handedly spoiled the whole ending without even knowing the ending

it’s crazy cuz the game shows what happened to the bodies of the children after they were murdered: The ginger was burned, the girl was buried, and the blonde was thrown into the back of a truck..Ron was hidden in a closet.
The dad snapping the child’s neck broke me, he didn’t look older than 7 :(

This game makes the quote “all kids deserve parents but not all parents deserve kids” make sense
this game is based on a true story the dad (stepdad) is now in prison
As someone who was abused by my mother, the child trying to give reasons and excuses why their parent isn't bad hits hard.

23:49”Mom? Dorito?”😂😂☠️☠️
That was so heartbreaking. From someone who lost a childhood friend to abusive parents, this hits hard. The fact that the child kept defending the parents is really facts and reality in most abusive relationships.

This game is too good and too sad. The way you were solvong your OWN murder case without yourself knowing is insane. I would've never expected it.
And the children's refence for their deaths?? The reunion in the end? KABAKBSKSNSM
I played this game tonight and actually cried. the way when he would speak to the cat or something and said “well.. my dad sometimes hits or slaps me or yells at me”. It hurts, then when he would say he’s a good person after everything, then how the cat said “nope. he’s a bad bruce.”. dude. that’s sad. pure heartbreaking. and the worst part is, is that kids go through this bullshit. and then others make fun of them, or bully them, or anything negative. but you never truly know what’s going on inside someone’s home, mind, or anything. no matter what, don’t bully, because sb could have a life like this.

This game hits deep for me since I had a father very similar, and a mom that tried to help but was just too distant- I'm just glad the pilot has kickass parents like Eddie and Gabby.
Bruh I almost cried, I am too a mother but this hurted me to the core. The ending did become happy because the killer is found and behind bars, also the kid no longer feels no pain. I'd say this game is 50/50 of sad and happiness.
5:29 look at it. Yk how the kid died in the closet?? Mr redface went to the closet and stuffed something inside. You think thats when the kid died? 😮
it is confirmed that mr redfaces present was the kiddos death
Redface is an imaginary version of his dad that he well.. imagined to help him cope with the fact his dad is one fat piece of shit :D To put simply, the dad is redface, the kid is the doll.
Since Ron’s dad is mr red face, when Ron died his dad stuffed his body in the closet. When mr red face gave Ron the doll, that was a representation of how Ron died. Hope this helps!😊
And the noise was his neck snapping
Also you can see that the doll neck is to the side. That’s how the kids neck was in the closet
25:47 gave me chills, nausea, anxiety, everything... alcohol ruins so many families

no the reason he couldn't open it was because he was denying the truth that's why the doll was trying to get him to reality so when he realized he was dead he was brought to reality which allowed him to open the closet.

28:14 idk if it's true, but i heard that the door opens 14 times in the intro for the amount of days it took the mom to find her son dead.
It opens 15 if you include the really long opening then slamming but other than that yes it was 14
Yes it’s true.
That is true
15:13 "GOD WTF A GINGER CAME OUT!" 😭😭😭
Not so fun facts: in the intro of the game it takes 14 times for the door to finally open because it took the mother 14 days to find out ron was dead, when rons mother first sees him sitting in the closet, it parallels to her finally finding rons rotten body

As someone with parents with addictions this really hit hard. My dad is a heavy drinker and has never put his hands on me, my brother, or mom but he does yell. When I was younger I tried to just push it away but now I’ve just accepted it instead. Knowing I can relate to these types of games to a certain point makes me just so sad. Especially because my younger brother has to go through the same things as me. This game was super well made and I’m honestly heartbroken that this is something some kids actually have to go through.
