A short game with a solid story. The lead character is sarcastic, funny, and grew on me as the story progressed. The music is simplistic in style, and the puzzles are also pretty easy. Overall, it was a good time to play the game!

I do remember thinking that the writing felt a little clunky at times, which was slightly distracting. Despite this, I enjoyed the story.

I recommend this game to people who are looking for a short, low-pressure game to play and enjoy narrative games.

Perfectly fine little adventure game. Played on Vita because that felt like the best place for it. It has reinforced my dislike of the multiple ending approach of horror media and doesn't feel as coherent as I think it could.

No geral, My Big Sister é uma boa experiência. Apesar de seus gráficos serem extremamente simples, a história contada no jogo é bastante interessante e conseguiu me prender até o final do jogo, me incentivado também a fazer os diversos finais que o jogo possui.

A gameplay do jogo é aquela padrão entre os RPG-Maker, e sinceramente não tenho nada a reclamar dela. As músicas por outro lado, não me marcaram tanto, eu quase não consigo me lembrar de nenhuma delas na real. Outro ponto interessante para se destacar é a direção de arte do jogo, ela tem um estilo bem bonito na minha opinião e consegue adicionar um charme a mais na história do jogo, que é o ponto principal do mesmo.

Vale ressaltar que essa análise é com base na versão original do jogo. A versão remasterizada possui gráficos muito mais avançados, e deve ser uma experiência de jogo melhor no geral também.

idk just cool, generic horror game lol

My Big Sister is a game about Luzia and Sombria, two sisters who are trying to get back home after being kidnapped by strangers and Luzia takes it upon herself to ensure they both make it home.

I picked this game up on sale purely because of the title. In 2022 my big sister passed away and it's been something that we're still struggling with so when i saw the game titled this i wanted to experience what i assumed would be an emotional story.
I wasn't wrong, near the end of this game i was shedding tears at the parts that really hit home. The story is deep, comes with curveballs and in my opinion whether you've lost someone or not, this is worth it for the story once you follow it.

The game is a modern take on a retro influence and puzzles in each area to be able to progress further into the story, The characters are well made and each serve their own purpose in the story within each level and the progress the story makes over time.
I was also very suprised to learn that this game was also under the banner of Ratalaika games which are usually cheap, easy platinums.
Don't get me wrong, the platinum to this is easy with a guide, without a guide you'd take a while trying to find all the endings and certain places with certain actions to earn other trophies.

Although this game is quite short at roughly 3-5 hours there's alot that happens.
Each character has their own personality aswell which is something i really like in RPG games, some characters are funny, creepy, serious and there to add intruige.

I would definitely recommend playing this for the story, it will hit home alot more if you've experienced losing someone and at the end of the story when you find out what's really happening, it can be quite emotional.

Very well made game

I got this game for free on Twitter and played it to give my honest thoughts back in 2019. I haven't returned to play it since as I finished all of the endings, and I respect the efforts of the developer to make an indie like this as that takes skill and passion, but it did not hold my interest or give me the creepy vibe that it was going for. I said in another review for the following game, Just Ignore Them, that it was better than this one story wise. I may give this a chance again in the future as its been a few years and maybe I will find a better view of it a second time.
