Marionette Night

Marleau searches for fun, bearing little comfort in the mad rogue Gavril assigned to be his chaperon after Artrius declines to accompany him to the fair in the neighboring village. His dreary day brightens somewhat when he stumbles upon a mysterious attraction which lures him with gentle music and warm spiced pie—sounds and smells of home. Music can disturb, and pies can spoil. Something can sit not right at home.

All-in-all this interactive witchy novel is beyond what I expected and I am pleased I had the honor to read the story, I am looking forward to playing the other two connected games in the (hopefully near) future. The ending was a little abrupt, but this added to the sudden flow of actions, so it’s a pro! Tagged story-rich, it owes up to that name and can proudly wield it, I would’ve added “breathtaking” as well (if it would be possible on itch.io)!

Full review on my website!

From one witch author to another: Love your style! Beautifully written and designed. Did you use a certain system / template for your Twine?

Thank you for playing! The template is my own design.
