Sorry but... this game is really confusing. After I put the red rose into the painting and got the key I had no idea what to do. And Spiegel Ei translated into german spells "fried egg", I don't know if that's intentional or not, just thought I'd put that out there. I'd like to continue this game but I don't know what to do afterwards.

Hello, hello, overfence.

Thank you for playing SPIEGEL EI, I'm sure the dev would be very happy to see his game played by non-Japanese people.
Ok, back to the main topic. Once you get the key, go back to the real world and head to Ei's room, and open the door with the key you just get. Also, try to open the other door inside Ei's room, the room number is located in the same area where you got the key.

I think you shouldn't translate German's name into English (It'll sound funny). Spiegel Ei is the name of the protagonist of the game (Ei Eulenspiegel) which is also the interpretation of her mental state, which I will not reveal it here as it is a spoiler. I will leave to how players interpret the story in the game.

This is bad translation.
Please await for another version.

The characters are offensively speaking and unnecessarily ranting compared to the original.
And above all, there's too many grammatical mistakes and also mistranslations of nuance.
The translator team confessed to have no Japanese collaborator.

I reported and explained why it needs to correct of course. But they rejected it. I don't know what the reason is.
They said some are to be fixed, but some are to still remain. Then those are not mistakes but distortions now because they decided to force it knowing is incorrect.

Looks really good from the screenshots i see. Nice art and good veriety for the tilesets, the second one looks very similar to that big painting from Ib (i like those small references to the clasics).

Might as well make some time to play this soon enough.
