I believe I've finished the game (I got the 'final note').


I got a few questions (spoilers bellow for anyone reading this!!)


.

I understand the basic phenomena of a thunderclap making someone die, and being forgotten about. The next person who remembers them ends up dead.

What is the cause? Or is it just a big mystery? Clearly it has nothing to do with the Galley house if Katherine died in her own home. The note-writer even finds it funny they blame it on ghosts. WELL WHAT DO WE BLAME IT ON!!

What was Annie trying to accomplish? Was she trying to end herself before the curse could? It seems the note taker is happy she tried it, so we don't have to try it ourselves. So I guess he's saying she tried the solution of killing the next cursed person but it didn't work out.

Does Dvorak's Humoresque relate to the mystery at all or is it just a fun song you included?

The final note lists almost everyone's names...except for John's. Oversight or does he survive? 

Finally, from what I understand, after the Galley incident the same thing happens at...whatever company we're working for. The final death is the agent whose memos we're reading. From what I understand, the people who can't learn their names (such as Alan) are probably close to them. So if they remembered them, they would die. This is probably why the agent is glad to die, since he's so removed. Did I get it right?

Lastly...what's the hangman answer.

Wow! Very impressive!

I don't want to give too much away, obviously, but it sounds like you've pretty much figured almost everything out!

I will say that Dvorak's Humoresque does play a part in the story, but there's a very subtle clue to it hidden at the very end of the game... (It's not too important though.)

And there's a good reason John's name isn't mentioned at the end! (After all, he's a bit different from the others...)

(Also, I'm super impressed you got the final puzzle, and thanks for giving the hints to Aprot!)

Then did John uuuh jumps off? He says he doesn't remember anyone. Maybe he isn't affected by the curse or he died before he could remember anyone, ending it? 

I thought maybe Dvorak's Humoresques was haunted and anyone who listened to it dies. But that can't be true since John's listened to it as well. Not sure how else Dvorak Humoresques is related other than Amelia's playing it made Rupert remember her.


I'm still a bit unsatisfied without knowing all the answers but it was a good game and I'm glad I played it. When ACT 2 finally explained what was happening it was a big "ooooh" moment.

Regarding John's scene at the end:
00-audio-recovery says that the audio is collected from dead bodies. Therefore, John definitely died as he was the only possible source for the audio.

He probably dies from the (gunshot?) wound inflicted on him in 23-CH-1-2, independently of the "curse". 

As for what Annie was trying to accomplish, I think the intention was to toaster bath the both of them, as to eliminate any remaining witnesses/possibility of the curse spreading. But this interpretation goes against the fact that she asked John to tell her mother??? So maybe she didn't really figure out the whole picture.

I don't think Annie shot John, I think it wouldve been very clear if this had happened.  Given the structure of the house and the sequence of events, it makes more sense to me that John simply jumped out the Attic window and landed on the Entrance pavement, killing himself (out of dread, survivor's guilt, or whatnot).

I believe what Annie was thinking was that the curse spreads when they die by the curse via the "thunderclap", so if she kills herself before that occurs then the curse can no longer spread. For one reason or another (perhaps she was just too late, or perhaps this only makes the curse proceed), this didn't really work.

A tiny thing about the hangman thing, that youtube video leads to a piece of piano music, and at the beginning you can see the title. On that piece of cardboard it says FOXTROT. that is 7 letters, which is the amount of blanks, and fits with the "thinking of an animal" theme. BUT IT DOESNT WORK. so dissapointing, I thought i was so smart :"(

Hehe tiny.


I have tried every letter of the alphabet and it's wrong. I tried a few numbers and symbols and it didn't react
