Myosotis
You've died at the hands of your (now ex) boyfriend, Ethan. Filled with a mix of sorrow, confusion, and rage, you decide to spend your afterlife haunting him in the hope of getting an answer from your murderer. However, you're only given more questions as you realize you're not the only ghost following him around...
IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE THE GAME RUNS FAR BETTER DOWNLOADED THAN IN-BROWSER!

THIS IS SO PEAK WHAT (Just finished both endings omg THIS IS AMAZING)
The beginning was the first thing that scared me in YEARS
THIS IS SO GOOD THE MYSTERY AND EVERYTHING WOWWWW
how do you get the first ending?? I got the second one first and really need to know what I'm missing out on?
(Spoiler) You have to pick the non-aggressive options and help Doe find his body.
I really loved the story and game, but I'm a little sad that there was no mention about the police finding the mc's body.
10/10 character (doe/ethan, not jude), 10/10 art, 10/10 storyline and pacing omg u outdid urself!!
This was such an amazing game, I loved it so much!!
The mystery had me on the edge of my seat, and I'm so glad there's a ending where justice is served!!
The slight romance was also very endearing; I really liked how it was integrated into the mystery but not in a way that distracted you from the rest of the story.
The art and music were also beautiful.
Awesome job!!
absolutely beautiful game omg i am in love :,) the music, the characters, the writing, the pacing of the text everything is perfectly coordinated and creates an atmosphere that is both dreamy and eerie... plus this game has a fun mechanic that you don't see too often in most VNs. 10/10!!!
The story and music were so beautiful 🥺. I loved how I actually had to think and put the pieces together, rather than having everything shown directly , the way it was implied made it so much more engaging.
***MILD SPOILERS***
It was truly heart-wrenching when Ethan said (or maybe it was the phantasm mechanic) that all the time and effort they spent was wasted now. I just wanna give Ethan a hug (つ╥﹏╥)つ.
At least we got a happy ending (kind of)
Wonderful game! I thoroughly enjoyed the story (and haunting 'Ethan')! The whole phantasm mechanic was a fun little treat! It's a really cool way to give more details beyond what our observation provides!
And that one part about Ethan's sister? Not even knowing her little brother is dead? Pain. Truly.I had a lot of fun piecing every clue together! The preview of the IDs on the game page... Ohoho! What a fun foreshadowing! All in all, great work! Beautiful art too!
THIS GAME IS BEAUTIFUL!!! IM GOING TO CRY :<
Beautifully cordinated and cute art. rlly cute game <333
I loved this game! I got the 2nd ending first then went back and got the 1st one and cried because it was so beautiful. I usually don't leave comments or reviews but this game was amazing so I thought I should say something. I wish this game was more popular but hopefully more people play it!
I'm enjoying so far, was "the whole being dead thing" a Beetlejuice reference?
amazing <3
ahhhh it was pretty short but enough to be a standalone game, a project that tells the story in itself
the atmosphere felt somber and melancholic but cozy
Really loved playing this! It has such an amazing and intriguing story!
I already said what I said in my rating, but I'd still like to leave a comment! It's so good. "(The romance is not with the corpse kissing character)" has me dead lmao. I just finished the first ending and I'm going to do the second one, though I wish there had been a true ending sorta? One for the ex's further backstory and Motive incase it wasn't mentioned in ending 2. I also really like Avery, and Doe. This game was developed and written so well and the art is scrumptious. The music sounded incredible too.
This was a very unique & hauntingly beautiful visual novel. Amazing blind pick and i knew i wouldn't regret it by the synopsis itself.
Such intimate writing and i say that because you immerse yourself into the story to the point where it leaves you pondering through and not focus on the 'why' but the mystery behind everything else. You loose yourself in the MC because you want them to find that "why" out from the ex or get some answers but i found myself picking details & clues out with the highlighted tooltip (kept marveling at that the entire time). You can tell these characters were thoroughly written with love, this whole VN was!
Thank you guys, the whole team so much for yall's hard work this has become a favorite of mine and i'm sure that i am not the only one <3
Myosotis was... breathtakingly beautiful. I won’t go too deep into the story, but I can say this: it brought me to tears by the end. The writing was so heartfelt, and the sprites were absolutely lovely. From the moment I started, I was completely invested and couldn’t put it down.
One feature I especially adored was the tooltip system. It was such an interesting addition and added so much extra depth to the experience. The slight touch of romance (mentioned as just a side note by the creator) was sweet and subtle. It never distracted from the main story, but instead added a gentle warmth to it. I would’ve loved to spend more time with the character and learn even more about them and maybe even about the jerk (ex)boyfriend who killed me, but honestly, the story wrapped up so beautifully that it didn’t need anything more.
This game was truly a job well done by everyone involved.
Thank you for this game. I REALLY LOVE IT. I'm so glad I downloaded it when I saw it, without reading any comments or the synopsis haha- otherwise, I wouldn't have had the same reaction (or maybe still). AAAAAAAAAAAAA there's so many brilliant games this year that my favorites are always increasing. Also, this game (funnily) made me question reality for things I can't quite explain- lol.
hermoso ame ❤
I've literally just started the game, but I have to stop and compliment you here for the incredible first scene, the excellent use of flavour comments for additional backstory and flair (spoiler: the "O Positive" comment was brilliant). I can't wait to play through the whole thing!
Beautifully written!!! Short but powerful and the snippets of backstory were *chef's kiss*
I wish the story allowed for more closure for the MC, and some more exploration of the killer's motives (for example, why they even dated MC in the first place - was it to try and blind them to the truth?)
I'm sure describing the ambiance despite having muted "ghost senses" was a challenge (I'm not sure ghosts can smell things? lol) but you still did what I thought was a great job!
make this a fandom (ITS SO GOOD)
wow..you made this game and plotline so beautifully like this is the actually first game where the plot line was so good and not just short to,you did wonderful!!1
omg i loved this! super fun & sweet <3
I LOVED THIS SO MUCH. Fantastic game.
No amount of praise would be enough for this masterpiece, the writing and everything else are perfect for me. This game is so creative and full of surprises, i didn't even expect the plot-twist. The tooltip is a must-read, it has a bunch of interesting informations and it kind of leads you to the first ending(I'm assuming it's the "good ending"). I feel so bad for our ghost boy, he deserves so much better 😭
啊啊啊画风怎能如此之萌🥰
Really really loved the writing, especially the little tooltip thingy with more insights. There is something so raw/nostalgic and bittersweet about them. ABSOLUTELY LOVED THE VIBES. Beautiful game!!
One of my all-time favorites! Love the story and the character design.
ughhh the writing was so beautiful!!!!! I was left at complete awe as I read those tooltip thingies gosh ts so poetic. Also Doe was so so cute. Wonderful game gang
I love this one so much, you have no idea. The pacing, the suspense, the soundtracks and sounds that are so perfectly matches with everything that's going on, i love every single of it. I sincerely wish i could experience it for the first time, all over again. Short playthrough but just enough. Thank you for this <33
(Spoiler) What if bro just killed the mc bcz he thought we knew about the identity swap or suspected we were looking into it that’s why he was looking nervous at the start of the game ;p
NVM I GOT MA ANSWER FROM THE COMMENTS 🙏
why?
bcz the creator answered someone that jade killed the mc bcz they got close to something important which I suppose is a piece of evidence that’s all
tyyyy
np^^
AMAZING GAME TO THE ART CHARAS STORY N DIOLOG THE ENTIRE GAME TOOK ME LIKE AN HOURISH?? the game was amazing but it left me w a lot of questions like why did he kill the mc if he loved us and doe or kiss the mc corpse but other then that amazing. 10/10
Truee, all i wanna know if he truly loved us or not. But the way they just left it hanging probably for us to interpret it however we want.
this is the funnest game i've found in a while, i love revenge plots
Wow. I'm floored after that ending. I really wanted to more about Avery what made him tick etc.
Beautiful art. Chilling vibes. And the game actually ran fine for me in my browser.
🤍GREAT GAME🖤
This is very well done!^^
Absolutely amazing story, super intriguing and super nice art work!
I liked where you could hover over certain words/phrases to know more information^^
only wished we got to know some more about the killer.
OMG OMG I FEEL SO LUCKY TO HAVE FOUND THIS GAME!??!? Literally everything made sense the farther I went (also becuz of the comments lol) but this is just so amazing. I played the first half at night and it actually gave me the chills so i decided to play the rest in the morning... THIS GAME WAS JUST SO BEAUTIFUL, especially with the justice ending hehe :)) I SHED TEARS
I forgot to mention THE ART!?!? ITS SO DELICIOUS
