Mid-length supernatural Twine game with time-based challenges, February 3, 2016

False Mavis is based on an old, creepy song and has managed to keep the same feel. Reading the song after you reach an ending can be helpful. The game has some pretty gruesome parts.

This game allows backing up and has multiple save slots. The game feels pretty wide-open, but can be completed in less than 45 minutes. The number of options you have at first can be overwhelming, until you start to understand your purpose.

One great idea the game had is time-based challenges, signaled by a banging sound. Your multiple options start fading away when this happens, often with bad results. It was exciting.

There are multiple endings; none of them seemed that great for the PC, so I'm wondering if I missed one or if the game is just a downer.

I don't think you missed one. (I tested this game and have played the current version as well.) (Spoiler - click to show)The best ending (**You have survived**) is still pretty bleak. Sadly, it's not possible to complete the ritual (I want my baby blood, baby blood, baby blood).
