A downloadable Ordeal

Have you ever been to a family reunion and thought "I wish this was worse"? If so, this game is for you!

Relative Strangers is a horror game for people with social anxiety. After your father dies you think things can’t get much worse, that is until a Stranger shows up at the will reading claiming to be you. What should be a simple correction is complicated by your family who are all too estranged to know for sure and too self absorbed to care. Quickly this banal event turns to a fight for your inheritance, your identity, and maybe even your life.

LOVE this game it is brilliant! And I like this guy for some reason, I just like tricky pathetic men ahhahaha 
PLS any guide would be appreciated! :( I tried everything I guess now 
Any hint would work perfectly! Thank you! <3

OMG I SPEND HOURS IN THIS GAME I REALLY NEED A GUIDE HELP

(+1)

try hug/assess situation/talk about mom/keep talking/help and write like $10 in the will for a dog keeper. i think it should unlock one of the endings (i got another one but i forgot to write my choices down...)

Thank you! I need to unlock 'he can't take it' 'solve a murder' 'see all sides' 'fall in love' and 'appreciate life' 
I swear, if someone found my notes on this game - they would think I got crazy. I guess they got a point....

Your so real for the notes thing, I've tried it but I keep getting the same ending over and over again.

(1 edit) (+1)

ah! try typing "f***ing" as you father's hobby. i guess rest of the endings depend on what you type as your dads collections and fav place? at least game autosaves in these moments, so i think they matter

(+2)

I've got another one, you have to get zero sympathy from your family to get it. 

think you need to do: fail to hug/ accuse him of stealing/talk about your mother/let stranger squirm/ignore executor. 

I don't think the collections or the dog or fav place matter that much. At least in this route.

I...don't know what to say other than that this is a really fun game. I accidentally finished it in 10 minutes on the first play through by playing around in the beginning and listing MC's Dad's hobby as something risque. Did not expect what happened to happen! XD

I love the art and humor in this game. And I can't stop playing, I MUST unlock all achivements (Got 7 so far. I actually made a spreadsheet to keep track of all the choises).

Btw, does it actually matter what our father collected? Or what his favorite place is? Does it affect the ending?

(+3)

Love the game so far, the facial expressions are so funny. I've been having trouble getting 6 other ending and was so excited when I had seen there was a guild posted only to be tricked by that bastard.

A very accurate representation of my relatives, this was truly a nightmare. Up until that beautiful blonde trump wannabe flirted with me. Then it was pretty good. Hilarious jokes, one of the few visual novels that game me a giggle. Your art is lovely, references perfect, and overall, for the first game you've uploaded on Itch, one of my favorites! Sooo much playtime too, if you have any art account I can follow, please lmk because not only do I love your art, I may slightly enjoy that smelly con-man as well.

truly one of the games ever made.

I love the game its FUNNY , I didn't reach all the endings so can u make A REAL guide this time (I saw the guide u put and I felt betrayal) .

(+2)

To those who are as easily embarrassed as I am, this is exactly as advertised. It was 100% worth it
Every bit of this was a slog to play through, just when I thought things were bad, they'd get so much worse!
There's so much charm in the writing and I couldn't have been more relieved someone stole my shoes
I cannot wait to try and get every gallery picture and achievement :]

Just a quick note before i play that game


I don't know why you don't post the trigger warning right here on this page or on a "devlog" especially since it says this game is for 18+ in that Trigger warning no hate tho obviously but i just think it's important to elaborate on all that without folks having to download the game especially if it's rated more mature ^^

Again no harm meant i will make a comment about the game itself once i played it i just mentioned it because it helps people who might find it triggering and/or minors to stay away from this game better.

Ah this is a good note, thankyou

10/10 Game, my nostrils have not recovered from the permanent damage caused by the smell of this man. My laptop feels greasy and I can feel his eyes on me no matter where I move. He radiates the energy of Atlantic City and I will not elaborate.

Would recommend to others 5 stars
