I played the remastered version of the game, which I believe makes some small story changes along with the aesthetic overhaul.
I'm not down for writing a full review right now, so I'll just say this: Excellent atmosphere and characters, strong (if slightly confusing) story, and non-frustrating adventure game elements. I'll be playing Stranga's other games in the near future.

I didn't realise this was a sequel to Ashina, so some of the Story aspects made very little sense. still pretty good though. Not scary in the slightest though
I reviewed this game with a key provided by the publisher: https://gameluster.com/review-my-big-sister-remastered-narrative-nonsense/
Overall, while the art and world and music are top notch, I can’t really recommend this very narrative heavy game because the story is just a disaster of thematic and tonal clashing at every turn. If this was another kind of game with a heavier combat element or something else to carry the weight, it’d be a different story, but My Big Sister is a narrative. If you are content to just vibe with it for a few hours and let the story be of no consequence, maybe you’ll find a way to enjoy it.

The original My Big Sister has been one of my favorite indies for years. The remaster is the perfected form of an already amazing title.
HIGHLY recommend!
