Honestly, I will admit it was quite chilling. There were so many set ups for Rook to scare us (I was a scaredy cat and didn't do anything, but I was also too sympathetic to be rude to the creepy Rook... I know I will suffer stranger danger) but from what I saw in other videos and images I could tell there is more to Rook and his unsettling vibes.
He's such a curious character with a tragic feel to him, from what little we get from the VN it seems he wasn't getting the proper support he needed, and isolation only further exacerbated his problems. I have to say, I love how Rook was characterized! (Also how did he find out about MC's information, boy you could have employed those skills to find your package)
But I will say this, I was absolutely weak for Rook. Like, my caretaker instinct just flared up upon seeing Rook and I was like "You unsettling man, you terrify me but I must give you a bath and food". Still, great work with this one!
I'm talking about the Youtube URLs(The names of those files). I tried each one last night but it keeps saying the video got deleted. It doesn't seem to me like a code either, I couldn't find any code with both numbers and letters inside.
Eu achei estranhamente fofo, mas o jogo foi tão curto, eu gostaria de ter visto oque ele me mandaria por mensagem e etc... Mas fora isso eu achei o jogo realmente bom!
For anyone on Mac with issues opening the game, here's a fix from https://melancholy-marionette.itch.io/, who also has some great games about some horrific loverboys. Check them out!
Right click on the game and select "Open Package Contents", then click Contents then MacOS. You should see a file called "ACryforHelp"
Open Terminal and write the following command; make sure to add a space after the x: chmod u+x
Drag the "ACryforHelp" file, drop it onto the Terminal window, and press Enter. The file's icon should change.
Now the game should work when you try to open it again!
He so cute and >.< I just wanted help him even more wanted invite him for christmas and give shower a hot meal and clean clothes and nice place to sleep and a kiss and a hug
Will this game has any sequel? I think it should has or has more ending something not clear for me about Rook how did he know where mc workplace what pakcage he finds. Anyway this game is good
I feel like such a coward, but I fully jumped when Rook nodded... the least unsettling of the animations, and that's the one that got me! I'm absolutely enough of a doormat that Rook would walk away with my phone-number while I pull over somewhere after the interaction to have a panic attack to my friends.
That said, they're adorable and I wanna cover their face in kisses even though I'm concerned about how their hoodie got into the state it's in.
You did a fantastic job on the game, and I can't wait to see more of your work. I also had some lingering questions about the Rook and would love to see a Q&A someday if possible.
omg i really love it, from the hispanic community, it was very easy to understand. Such a lovely game, very entertaining <3 i only wish it was longer :((((

IS THE GAME GOING TO GET LONGER?!? PLEASE I BEG!! I WANT TO GO ON A DATE WITH ROOK
i asked the creator on tumblr!! it is going to get longer, but the main focus is other creation right now
eai, vai voltar a trabalhar quando?
i really liked it but i dont know where the 18+ conten is i did all the endings and there wasnt any
There's no sexual themes, but mentions of suicide are present right before you make your first choice.
There really needs to be more of this. It's too good to stay so short.
I LOVE ROOK!!!!
Honestly I really liked the game it's very good🤓☝️
Although I would love it to be longer, it's nice
I love to see more of Rook and I will keep saying it (don't worry I won't Don't want to bug you) >3> but Love to see a lot more of him
I really love the subtle yandere in a horror setting.

This was actually a really cute game. Would you consider making a sequel in the future?

Rook is amazing! I am glad to play your wonderful game.

Rook's pretty adorable! I really wonder what's in that package though- or if there is one at all
