A murdered father and a missing grandfather...
It is under these circumstances that Phebe finds herself moving to the isolated frontier town of Edgefield. Rumors have it that monsters roam the lands after dark and anyone caught outside is never heard from again. With eerie murderous howling heard every night, Phebe has no choice to become accustomed to this new life if she wants to find her missing grandfather.
Play as this polite city girl as she forages, farms and (possibly) woos the local villagers as she navigates this new life of hers.
A horror VN and farm sim, A Heart of Butterblue has 3 endings and a word count of 32k. A game you can complete in an afternoon.
