Our take on Amelie
Rather than building around combat, exploration systems, or extended progression, the game uses a short visual-novel structure with three playable viewpoints. The shift between Amelie, Sofia, and Lilika makes the manor’s mystery unfold through contrasting perspectives instead of a single protagonist’s investigation.
What is Amelie?
Amelie is a psychological horror and yuri visual novel set in a remote manor.
Amelie is confined to the house and awaits Sofia, a longtime penpal whose arrival troubles Lilika, another resident. The story follows the three women as Sofia investigates the manor and its concealed history. Players take the roles of Amelie, Sofia, and Lilika, with each perspective contributing to the full account of what happened. The game presents a short narrative of about 20,000 words and 1–1. 5 hours of playtime. Original illustrations accompany the story, while music supports both affectionate and frightening scenes. Its central mystery asks what Sofia will uncover and whether she will survive the night.
