The story failed to spark my interest. The relationship between the two sisters, Luzia and Sombria, takes the center stage here - but I didn't care for either character. They bicker, they break down, they're very real in that sense, but that doesn't make them interesting. A big blow to the story was a therapy scene; whoever wrote this has either never been to therapy and only knows how they go from shows and …

The original My Big Sister has been one of my favorite indies for years. I was fortunate enough to play the beta, and I can say that the remaster is the perfected form of an already amazing title. HIGHLY recommend!

I bought the original and remaster in a bundle and played the remaster first, which left me very satisfied! This version has significantly improved visuals with more variety, detail and a rather unique vibe that heavily enhances the atmosphere. On technical level I perceived this version to be optimized as well, regarding the ability to manually create multiple save files, widescreen support, lack of bugs (at least …

A short, fun RPGMaker horror experience that's worth playing if you're into that kind of thing. Unraveling the plot was enjoyable, and the simple puzzles were good enough gameplay to keep the story moving. Learning about Luzia and Sombria was probably the best part of this game, and the true end was fulfilling. Minor criticisms include: Janky control scheme (I feel like this could so easily be a one-handed game but …

A very good Remaster of "My Big Sister", with some interesting changes to gameplay and lore! The look of the game also improved a lot, making it even more nice to play!

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The good: + Amazing visual/pixel artstyle. + Mostly good soundtrack. + This game run well on SteamOS/Linux with only little problem. The bad: - The story frustrate me. Boring at beginning, insufficient story build-up/suspend and it become less coherent over time without much explanation (either by telling or showing it). - While many endings exist, overall poor story would leave many people confused about what really happened or doesn't feel satisfying reached certain ending. I'm also baffled…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →If you like RPGMaker horror games, pick this up. There's a bit of jank as it's an older game, but lots of love, and a story that starts interesting and goes batshit loco. You can really see where @strangagames.bsky.social started building the foundations for My Big Sister and Red Bow, especially.
positive · AI labelView post →( full review with screenshots https://www.gaming-parrot.com/post/my-big-sister-remastered-review-retread ) My Big Sister: Remastered is a remaster of a game that is, confusingly, the first in its series to release, but the last in story order. It picks up from where Ashina left off and resolves the cliffhangers from the end of that game, although I suppose it's more accurate to say that Ashina contrived cliffhangers to fit this game's existing plot. Although this remaster apparently has some…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This lil' RPGmaker game was excellent! My first time playing and I'll definitely have to go back and play the original! The atmosphere and music were both on point. It felt creepy and also a bit whimsical at times. Really full of heart and touches home on having a little sister for sure! My eyes and brain didn't like the graphics of the train section, it made me feel motion sick and i had to squint through the entire chapter. Still worth. 10/10 Would squint again.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Pretty solid, but there's still some signature Stranga games jank Spelling mistakes, grammatical errors, sure it's not the end of the world, but you'd think by now there'd have been a bit more proofreading and spellchecking, because this has been an issue with Stranga games from the start. Honestly, still kind of buggy, going from fullscreen to windowed doesn't work properly, just like every other game by Stranga I've played so far; there's something up with the therapist where you can give…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →#Platinum 184: Red Bow. Made by the same people who made My Big Sister. It's a game with 'horror' or 'creepy' elements but not so much a horror game. You play Roh, a girl who keeps experiencing weird dreams where she helps people (portrayed as monsters) move on after death.

neutral · AI labelView post →Didn't have the chance to play the original, but finally got to play this version through in one run. I liked it much more than Just ignore them. Soundtrack and overall atmosphere felt great. Mushroom sequence creepy as hell. Looking forward for future games by Stranga. PS: Needs more Mudo
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →it's nice to see people beat shadow tower in evergrace :) i think it's such a beautifully blatant display of padding... i nearly lost my shit at seeing demon darius. did u know he says "GIVE MY BIG SISTER BACK" in japanese. also my game locked up twice there
neutral · AI labelView post →This game hit me with a vibe I wasn't expecting, like a weird episode of Kiki's Delivery Service. The core gameplay is simple, so don't come in expecting a deep RPG. It's more of an interactive story. The soundtrack is an absolute banger. It's a short, charming journey that's a little janky, but its unique charm makes it a trip worth taking.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Don't smoke in the no smoking zone. That apparently does some large AOE decapitation attack or something.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →🚭 This is a nice "remade" of an already good game, now with even more beautiful visual, character portraits (finally) and more pleasant controls. Many locations have undergone significant changes, there are small differences in the lines, as well as slightly different conditions for secrets. Unlike the original, it's recommended to play this one after «Ashina». The only thing that can spoil the experience are BUGS, although they don't break the game completely. Dunno what the testers were…

I'm always anxious, so doing any relaxing and fun activity, makes me mad. But I'm thouched this time didn't happen. I played this game in just one session...

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This certainly *looked* interesting but once I played it.. well, looked interesting is about all that's worth saying about it. The biggest issue with the game is the writing. The characters are so insufferably bad. The dialogue is just.. exhaustingly cringe, but what gets me is that it's written by someone who doesn't know how to write more than one character, because they all sound/talk the same, making every conversation take me out of the story and feel like I'm just reading some bad…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Game does not show all things you can interact with. It shows name for most things so player naturally thinks it shows all of them, witch is not true and makes game a lot harder. I personally think that original game has better visual atmosphere and looks than this totally unnecessary remaster.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Remaster of the classics.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Played the previous version but it was long enough ago that I didn't remember much. Enjoyed this game even more the second time around and highly recommend. I've played a lot of this developers games and each one has amazing characters, music and the stories are always interesting. Love this game 10/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun game. The pixel art as good. The story was little confusing, but it made sense in the end.

neutral · AI labelView post →My Big Sister: Remastered is a badly made 2D top down retro pixelcrap game copy + pasted out using templates from the Adventure Game Studio game construction kit, think RPG Maker but designed for 2D pixelcrap adventure games (you don't have to make pixelcrap games with it, but that's easier, so shovelware developers like GrabtheGames prefers that easy approach). This is an "edgy" adventure game about a kid trying to save her older sister from a demonic curse and features themes of gore and…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →wish it was longer i enjoyed the mechanics and music map making was amazing
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I really liked this one as well. I think you need should play Ashina: The Red Witch first as it makes this game have a very satisfying ending to it. It feels more complete playing it that way. Overall 8/10 and enjoyed it, controls worked fine, just be careful hitting the pause button cause it can skip dialogue. Random bugs but nothing that broke the game, just made it kind of funny.

neutral · AI labelView post →Better than the original in most ways, though i really miss some of the cheesier dialogue. The only thing that was worse is the mushroom search, why oh why are we not only slower but have less time and more interruptions
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Interesting short game, was hoping it'd be scary. It was not. Kind of a confusing story. I have a feeling it's linked to something else but the description didn't say anything. I doubt I would've gotten half of the endings without a guide. Still an overall good experience though
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Excellent atmosphere and characters, strong (if slightly confusing) story, and non-frustrating adventure game elements. Definitely worth the time and money.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Ashina is still the superior game, but overall, this is a fantastic rework of the original My Big Sister, unifying both the look and story elements. It does, however, feel sluggish compared to its prequel, I still think the dialog on the truck ride is ill-fitting, and the tree line animation on the train makes me very nauseous (really the only issue I'd like to see addressed), but beyond those, I've no complaints—a gem of horror adventure, through and through.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Not exactly needed but still a nice remaster to make it fit alongside Ashina: The Red Witch a bit better. At least in terms of graphics. Sure, some of the assets are the same - no surprise there because it all takes place within the same story and setting - but they come with an additional detail or two. In case you're new to the series: it's an adventure game with focus on story. You walk around, talk to people or other creatures, and use items you pick up. The game is linear and divided…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I absolutely loved the original and the other games Stranga has made and this is not a let down in the slightest. Love the new details he's added in the lore and the graphics have really improved over the years. Can't wait to 100% this game along with the others.

positive · AI labelView post →really enjoyed this one. the atmosphere was great, the story kept me curious the whole time, and i liked how everything slowly came together. i was confused about a few things at first, but by the ending it all made sense, and it made me appreciate the story even more. definitely worth playing if you like horror games with a good narrative.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →6,5/10 A short narrative game with few gameplay elements that come from the point&click genre: find items A&B to reach item C which will unlock item D, etc... But most of the game progression is by reading dialogues. And I have to say that I really liked the personality of the little sister: playful, mischievous and fearless. It makes a lot of the dialogues quite funny. Plus the mysterious ambience of the story, I really enjoyed at least half of the game. After that, the mystery thickens too…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →its a really well done game with an awesome story line.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I see. I happened to play some other games that are about it like Missed Messages and My Big Sister and they really helped. Especially Missed Messages. But then I played Root Film which was also about it and it was... shocking... But I'll consider your game.

neutral · AI labelView post →My only horror game that is not anime styled is FnAF and its just goofy and forced to me. Other game that is not scary but fits the category is "My Big Sister". I news to finish the game... Miiko, how are you not scared, ahaha...
positive · AI labelView post →I really like it I really really loved it I usually don't play top-down games like this one, but I enjoyed it so much that I got all the achievements, but I didn't understand the happy ending. Why is it happy? It's actually not happy at all, and the good ending is the real ending for me, and it's the happy one. Overall, I liked this type of games and I will play a lot of them. i highly recommend it
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Overall a pretty wholesome game though it's not without it's issues. While the art and music are really nice, the gameplay is really basic and the story, while I think is good, feels fractured at times. The game play while simplistic isn't too much of a negative considering that this is a narrative driven game, but there are instances where the progression is tied to finding something that is extremely easy to miss/ hard to see. Though I did enjoy the way they used a timer in the game. The…

Oxenfree is an older fav, and a little horror game I loved is My Big Sister. I saw Journey to the Savage Planet is back on GP too!
