I went into this game fully expecting to like it having played many similar horror RPG maker games. Unfortunately this one just ended up being a real slog both in story and game play. While running around spooky wonderland, the game teases for a full (checks game timer) 8 HOURS a mysterious and compelling story using a large cast of weird characters, scrawled bloody notes, disappearing books, and even theater shows. …

It feels like a psychological fairy tale where I'm left to gather scraps of meaning on my own. Even after the puzzles fade, the quiet traces of clues and symbols tucked into every corner linger with me—not with fear, but with a soft, stubborn melancholy.

This game honestly surprised me with how good it was. The only real flaw I noticed is the puzzle design. No matter where you are at in the game, they’re either way too easy and straightforward or completely obtuse and clunky. Usually I think a game is “good” if it has at least one thing that really stands out and makes me think back to it months later. And Pocket Mirror actually has two of those. First, the …

I thought playing this before getting into Little Goody Too Shoes, since it is its prequel, would have helped me understand the story better. It did not. I really liked a lot puzzles being actually challenging and not just "find x to use on y" and the story is very ambitious in its use of symbolism and obfuscation, but it didn't feel like it was being excessive to the point of not being thought out at all; I would …

neutral · AI labelView post →It just dawned on me that, although I’ve spent many hours and quite a few sleepless nights on this game, I never actually wrote a review about it. Keep in mind that it’s been... wow, I think almost 2 years since I last played it properly, so this review might not be entirely up to date and will mostly rely on my memories. When I was in junior high, I had a friend who loved horror RPGs. I remember us sitting in her room in the early 2010s, glued to her computer screen. I found it fascinating,…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →as a player of many rpg maker games, this one is my absolute favorite! I discovered it 3 years ago, and it was a big obsession of mine. It has become one of my favorite games! I immediately fell in love with the atmosphere, the characters, the music, and the gameplay, and I am still obsessed today! I can definitely recommend this game for every person who likes anime like Rozen Maiden and Puella Magi Madoka Magica since it's the inspiration of the creator!! <3 don't forget to take a look at…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Has to be the best RPGMaker game I have ever played. First thing you notice is simply how charming it appears to the eye. Its gorgeously crafted pixel art and level design results in a very effective visual storytelling. For being the developer's first title, the effort went into this game for its caliber is quite admirable. And the story, for what it is, is truly where this game shines. It feels like those fairy tales one would find in the Grimm Brothers' collection and the studio's other game…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Live with AstralShift's newest game, Hell Maiden! twitch.tv/moon_cascade It is a bullet heaven with beautiful music and hand-drawn visuals from the creators of Little Goody Two Shoes and Pocket Mirror ~ GoldenerTraum (the former is one of my all-time favourites, the latter I have yet to play)
positive · AI labelView post →If you are a fan of the classic RPG horror style but are wanting more modern achievement-hunting-goals that double as extra-lore?? You found your game! Pros: Similar to The Witch's House and Mad Father New Game + Achievement hunter Makes RPG Maker chases FUN. Serious themes but presented in a digestible manner. Cons: Hard to think of one. Mostly Psychological Horror but good scares at the right moments. Highly suggest playing in a dark room!

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's so peak I've ascended into heaven. Like some of the other reviews said the game's story is a giant metaphor for something.. the fun part of it to me is figuring out that stuff yourself as the game subtly reveals more and more to you. While it has your standard RPG maker horror shock value I think the actually scary part was the progressive more or less subtle revelations in the story. Visually it's very inspired by Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass, especially the latter…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Right off the bat, I'm gonna say... skip this and go for the sequel/prequel, Little Goody Two Shoes, instead. It's far more of a game and executes on its concepts and characters with a level of polish that Pocket Mirror sorely lacks. Despite being a remake, you can really feel the rotten foundations here, with the fantastic production values masking an interesting but ultimately very flawed bit of RPGMaker horror. While the new art, cutscenes, and music are all excellent, Pocket Mirror's…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →You play this game for the vibes. The character design is excellent; the art-style is so beautiful, enticing, and really adorable; the soundtrack is immersive (especially love the intro song, it's stuck in my head now!); there's a hundred cute pumpkins to talk to! Aside from how much I love the aethestics of this whole RPG to death, I also appreciate how it all just comes together at the end. When you get it, it's like, you start to re-contextualize things that happened before and the…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →artistically very charming looking game probably heaviliy inspired by rozen maiden or touhou and thats it.. gameplay wise its super bland and boring, puzzles are not somewhat original or crazy nor interesting to solve, mostly you just go forward and do nothing, when game forces you to do a choice you dont even know it is a choice or a just a button for example (do you want to open a door? yes no, if you say no you wont progress in the game then why it is a choice?) also game presents itself as…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →i love when game looks cute but it is actually horror game. its like alice in wonderland mixed with identity crisis and more horror
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is a gorgeous, obtuse game. It feels like it doesn't want to be understood on purpose. The soundtrack is outstanding! The art style is beautiful, too. The gameplay is simple, and the puzzles never become esoteric, so you'll never get stuck.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This was by far the best story driven game I've got the pleasure of playing, had me feeling in ways I didn't think I can feel. Music is top notch. Writing, art style and characters really inspired me. i feel like i learned alot just by playing this game. I'm really curious about the people who made this game possible. I have not played it's prequel "Little goody two shoes" yet but i plan to play it as soon as i can! I'm quite sadden that there is no definite "good ending" though i…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Highly recommended. I started playing back when it released years ago, and fell in love with it, and when I heard they would be releasing a steam version I knew I had to Play this one as well. I'm relived they where able to fix many off the bug issues that the original had on this version, as well as not having to restart the chasing scene over and over due to crashing. Overall 10/10 will always play again. :3
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A middling game, with weirdly written dialogue, great music and art, moon logic puzzles and a largely predictable story. Some negative reviews point out how obtuse the story supposedly is, but I think that's largely due to the mediocre dialogue writing, because I can literally send you a stream clip of mine where I, live, during the first 30-ish minutes of the game, called out what ended up being the central conceit ("this is probably all happening in my head right?", "Oh, that door says…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →“Damn ♥♥♥♥♥ you crazy!” -??????’s thoughts on every girl she encounters I’ve been mulling over what kind of review to give Pocket Mirror for quite some time, and I’m split 50/50. Let’s ask a coin, heads I’ll recommend it, tails I will not, kind of befitting a story about dubious deals and open to interpretation, wouldn’t you agree? And I guess you already know what side of the coin I got… Gameplay Walk around and interact with stuff. Some sections have some minor puzzle elements and the…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The visuals are incredible, but the writing is shallow, edgy, and frustrating to follow. Most dialogue is flowery gibberish, never explaining a single thing, and then mocking the main character (and by extension, the audience) for even making the effort to make sense of it; I like a good mystery, don't get me wrong, but this is not a mystery, it's just esoteric, over-indulgent BS. The gameplay is terrible, too, with constant segments where if you make a single wrong choice, or hesitate for…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I've been putting off writing a review for Pocket Mirror ~ GoldenerTraum, because it seemed like such a daunting task to put my adoration for this game into words. I finally finished getting all the achievements though, so there's no excuse to leave it any longer now. This is the kind of game that has impacted my life in such a rare and special way that only few games do. I played the prequel, Little Goody Two Shoes before I even knew about this game. At the time I watched a Let's Play,…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I didn't know what I was expecting playing this after little goody two shoes but this is actual peak art, peak story followed by the most memorable ost i've heard from a game in ages that makes everything feel melancholic, beautiful and tragic. It just unapologetically gives me goosebumps. What a hidden gem. Also play this after Two Shoes not before it's so much more better (it made me wanna geek out of my chair) which just like its prequel leans hard into its aesthetics and art.…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I was torn about giving the game a thumbs up or down. In the end, I chose up. It is, without a doubt, a solid game, and worth the price when you buy them in a bundle or on their own. This game is a remaster, with the gameplay staying exactly the same as before; absolutely lovely visual changes and well done music. So while it now has sprites and character art that is on par with it's chronological prequel, but published sequel, Little Goody Two Shoes, many parts of the game that I find a…

positive · AI labelView post →This game made me remember why I held rpgmaker stuff so close to my heart way back when. The story is enjoyable and interesting to follow, although not necessarily easy to understand. The visuals are really high-quality, as well as the soundtrack that accompanies them. The gameplay itself is fairly simple, with some specific moments requiring you to pay attention or remember something from before. Additionally, the puzzles are not tedious and can be figured out without being forced to look…

But this game is not cooked! rather it is cooking! cooking so hard in fact it is hard to taste the flavours on your first playthrough. you need to play more than once to notice the hidden little details that season the dish, and even then your appetite can only be satiatied by playing LGTS, for its…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I first played this game back in 2018 on itch io, and have played it multiple times since. This is my absolute favourite RPGmaker game and one of my favourite video game soundtracks ever. The story may require multiple playthroughs to understand. I recommend this to anyone who enjoys games like Ib or Mad Father.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Absolutely brilliant game with gorgeous art and amazing soundtrack i can't stop listening to. I am not a fan of horror games, but this game is a gem and an underrated one as well. 10/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Nice game, compelling story that keeps you interested until the end, pretty artstyle, and fun puzzles that don't get boring. If you like to get all achievements there are some that can only be got on NG+, but the game is really good so replaying it is not boring either. I just waited some months and when I went to replay it I had a lot of fun again.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Absolutely 10/10 game, I adore it so much and the story + atmosphere alone, ontop of the characters. If you haven't tried it and are considering doing so, please do. It's worth every penny, and I'm in-love with this game.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game has such a special place in my heart. I first learned about Pocket Mirror through my childhood comfort YouTuber, back when it was only available on itch.io and you had to download some kind of emulator for it to work. I watched him play through the whole thing, and despite having always been more of a viewer than a player, I fell in love with the game so much so that this is still one of the only few games I have actually downloaded and played for myself. One thing I distinctly…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Amazing game, premium depression. It knew how to hurt me everywhere. Glorbo my baby... Seriously recommend this game, it's a great story! Even tho this game was originally made before Little Goody Two Shoes, I feel like I personally enjoyed it more (and suffered more), by playing it after LGTS.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Pros: Stunning art style (personally, I find the older one even more charming). Brilliant storytelling that isn't afraid to embrace subtlety over exposition, a great example of show, don’t tell. Exceptional sound design that heightens the atmosphere and little actions beautifully. A profound and haunting exploration of the protagonist’s psyche. Cons: The choice system in Pocket Mirror is terrible, frankly, frustrating. It’s far too easy to get locked into the worst outcomes, with just one…

So when I heard that it was getting an official remake on Steam, I was ecstatic, especially considering I had just gotten a laptop to play on. I bought it, beat it, and when I got an actual good gaming PC I made a new Steam account and bought it here too. I can't describe how much I love this game, and will forever hold it in high regard as one of the greats, up there…

I held back my expectations, knowing it's an RPGMaker game, and can't reach the heights of LGTS, but the presentation still shocked me.

The story is very interesting!! It had me looking up the lore as soon I finished it because I wanted to see everything that I missed even though I put a pretty good amount of time into it.
