Jamie and Marley Die A Lot

A short visual novel inspired by RPG Maker horror. You and your sickly best friend are trapped in a supernatural cave system, and it seems like the only way out might be past a series of puzzles. Assuming you don't die along the way. But with 14 endings, that might be hard to pull off.

About the Game

It's a cold and dark Halloween night when Jamie finally indulges his best friend Marley's wish to check out the weird cave in the mountains. But what should be a brief look at the unknown goes bad very quickly, and the two kids must go deeper into the cave to find a way out, if there is even one to be found. Your choices determine both if they make it out and what type of life awaits them outside. Also, they probably die a lot.
