Reviews

“I do not hand out a review score of ten lightly. I've only ever given one, and this will be the second. I've thoroughly enjoyed my time with The Letter, and I am certain it is not over just yet.”
10/10 – Rely on Horror

“The Letter is a terrifying labor of love, and I’m incredibly grateful that I backed it.”
Unwinnable

“Did you ever get one of those chain text messages? During my high school years, they became so pervasive that they were more annoying than scary. Horror visual novel The Letter changes all that.”

ABOUT

The Letter is an interactive, horror/drama visual novel inspired by classic Asian horror films, Ju-ON: The Grudge and The Ring. Told through an immersive branching narrative, the game puts the players into the shoes of seven characters as they find themselves falling prey to a vicious curse plaguing the Ermengarde Mansion for centuries.

In this game, your choices will shape and drive the story forward: will you mend a relationship on the verge of collapse, or will you let it fall apart? Will you risk saving them, despite the consequences, or leave them to die a gruesome death? The fate of all the characters is in your hands.
