In the span of four days, Itsuki's memories will slowly return as he struggles between his loss and his fear of the truth, until the fourth night, when the whole world becomes blanketed under a red sheet of snow and wrapped up in the silence of death....

Erotic and terrifying in equal measure, Kusarihime induces a rush of blood in both directions. Raw emotions of lust, hate, regret and euphoria are distilled to their purest in this game, then subdued by an overwhelming nostalgia in the end. The story is rough around the edges, but as you peal away the time loop and step into the deepest desire of the heroines, you will be absorbed into it by the atmosphere and mystery. Too bad the little sister trope is front and center in this game as well, but in 2002, it was not as obnoxious as it is today.
