About this game

A notebook that transcends the space and time. An adventure full of thrills.

The truth serves as the riddle, and the motive is the answer. You fall into the trap the moment you believe it.
A fairytale is written based on the secrets and evils of darkness, while the truth buried in the sands of time by the "demon" remains hidden forever.

...Anything can be a perfect fairytale as long as you believe it.

Ratings and reviews

Edit: Finished it although for some reasons the puzzles were just not functioning properly and the ads weren't giving rewards or the app would freeze up. The game is interesting and not really scary, but it definitely is tragic and disturbing considering the subject matter/mystery behind it. Took away a star because of some of the glitchy puzzles and non-rewarding ads, but otherwise I enjoyed this twisted albeit short game.

A solid game. I had a bit of trouble with the ghost battle sequence, the controls were a bit difficult, but I also don't play games with those types of controls often, so it could just be me. Loved the story, and the surprise reveal at the end was unexpected, which I don't say very often!

lots of positives but just not as good as the paper bride series. the English has significantly improved since the last game, the story has more coherence, the reliance on Chinese letters has been lowered to cater to a wider audience. at the same time, the unnecessary "fights" where you have to click specific characters quickly was a put off, the number of "puzzles" that add nothing to the story were too many, and the ads to watch to skip them were too many and too long.
