Hello, I was looking for a game I've found some years ago, but at the time it was too scary for me to try. I was curious to try it again. But I can't remember the name.

I think it was quite an unknown game. It was very aggressive game with skeletons dancing and some sort of different kind of skeletons in a sort of hellish looking setting. You couldn't save unless you were able to talk to a specific skeleton and I also remember they were a screamer near the beginning.

I don't recall as well that there was a particular story or gameplay, more like exploration and random aggressive scary stuff. If anyone has any idea, what this game could be? Thank you!

Hello! Can you help me identify the title of this horror RPG game? The YouTuber Manlybadasshero played this game but I cannot remember it.

I do not know if this RPG horror game is made with an RPGMaker engine but it has the same style as most RPGMaker video games (The Witch's House, Misao, Ao Oni, etc.) such as being top-down, being anime in style, etc.

This RPGMaker horror game that I cannot remember is about a hypocritical male who treats a socially-awkward shy otaku girl very badly. The boy is an asshole to the otaku girl. As the game progresses, the players find out that the hypocritical male is actually an otaku himself who is obsessed with a cosplayer girl. Then, the hypocritical male finds out that the cosplayer girl he obsesses over is actually the otaku girl he bullies after the otaku girl revealed herself to be the cosplayer girl.

One of the endings of this game is the hypocritical male being disgusted by the fact that the cosplayer girl is actually the otaku girl he bullies which resulted in him treating and rejecting the cosplayer girl in a horrible way. This led to the cosplayer girl committing suicide. So what is the name of this RPG horror anime game?

@NoProblemsHere

Couldn't find a demo zip but it does exist: https://web.archive.org/web/20050620220959/http://www.kamain.com/games.php

edit: kamain's world forums seem to be converted and preserved, but further archival of the game's existence here anyway: https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/kamainsworld/one-final-scream-is-complete-t2626.html

https://rpgmaker.net/users/SegNin/locker/dddddddd.txt segnin probably does have it though, just have to wait for him to appear.

@Reincarnation: I can't recall every site but here are some leads

https://web.archive.org/web/20051119082134/http://gamingw.net/reviews/ (surprisingly still functional clicking through a gamepage might be easier)
https://web.archive.org/web/20050308200401/http://www.blade2k.net/reviews/section_1
https://web.archive.org/web/20070223211641/http://uiv2.com/games.php?act=browse&sub=all (click through a game page with a star rating, lot of reviews seem broken though)
https://web.archive.org/web/20021127092859/http://www.radicald.com/ (don't think any of these work)
https://web.archive.org/web/20060321233812/http://rmdatabase.net/?id=games&act=game (review on game pages but dont know if their game pages even work)
https://web.archive.org/web/20050830081047/http://www.phylomortis.com/html/rev-main.html (lot of these work)
https://web.archive.org/web/20060614133549/http://rpgartisans.com/index.php?page=gamingshowcase (not really reviews, but summaries of games that might not exist?)
https://web.archive.org/web/20030211192435/http://rpgpalace.gamersuplink.com/ (RM2K Game Reviews)
https://web.archive.org/web/20011216072552/http://rpg2knet.com/articles.php?id=3 (doesn't seem to have reviews but does write about some rm2k games)
https://web.archive.org/web/20070322195450/http://www.sol-brave.net/reviews.htm



still online:
http://queenscourt.org/reviews.php
https://www.rpg-maker.fr/jeux-type-rm2000.html (in french and only really has comments but useful if you just want commentary)
http://www.monkeypro.net/games.php (has reviews in the game pages)

Best way to find these sites is to just click through the affiliate links, though it does remind me that we should get around archiving not just games but articles/reviews, or even having a clear map.

This little search has got me curious though, does anyone remember a site called cranky? bear reviews or something like that? I remember him trashing Tabernacle and praising Wild Card, but he had some interesting review commentary on rpgmaker games. From 2003-2006ish era i think.

Since this is a request topic, i'd like to know anyone has the Hentaifilm.jp japanese rm2k3 games/demos, because their website died down and i'd love to have them, play them, learn from them, does anyone has and can share?

I can give u the links taken with waybackmachine:



They seem to work!

I can also add some more Aberrant & others

So was there any return of Ill Natured 1 in the last update? https://rpgmaker.net/games/2211/

I've been playing Ill Natured 2 and it is high quality though the story would may make more sense with the first one. First one looks to be mostly RTP based, lower quality but would be good for completion.

Found an old review for Elysian Fields. Fills out a few more details.
https://web.archive.org/web/20021021130926/http://www.skytowergames.net:80/rm2k/games/elysian_review1.html

rmdownloads has a lot of reviews for old rm2k games. Posting her for archival purpose:
rmdownloads.com

Would be nice to have complete archives of these old sites but probably long gone now unless webmasters have them on old hard drives.

Thank you for all your help <3
