Dream of Gluttony
releases on TBD
You play as Sissy - a normal girl, that got lost in the forest. She tries to find her way back home, and so decides to take the one that the mysterious man in the forest had mentioned. She then discovers a town, where people claim to be…. food. Everything seems to be cute and nice, but… something feels odd here... Maybe visiting this town only once isn't enough to learn the truth?

Starting with the negatives: My number #1 issue with Dream of Gluttony is the abrupt ending. The ending is horrible not because it's tragic, but because it's anti-climactic and meant to serve as a cliffhanger. All that Sissi does is walk around in circles until the game suddenly takes you to the main ending. All that buildup with no conclusion is just disappointing for an otherwise fun game.
Otherwise, the setup of the story is unique for a cannibalism story. Having to play the story for the 2nd time is fine since the drastic change in settings are fun. You could say the characters are no longer "sugar-coated" into showing their best selves. Everything is just a delusional outcast of society, so they pretend to live in a world where they can exist without judgment.
I'd give this game an eight if not for the absolutely abysmal ending. I hope the sequel comes out eventually...
