This is a great game! I really loved the sense of mystery it gives off right from the start. Though, I must say; the story is very simple to follow and solve way before the end of the game even comes close. I really do appreciate a well made RPG Maker game though.
I made a Let's Play of this game, which the first episode will be up tomorrow at 1PM MST.
If you'd like, I could post a link to the video here when it's up.
Really enjoyed it. =) Interesting history. I liked to solve the puzzles, but i've got stuck in the sounds, had to look the answer to complete the game. I finished it in four hours. Good job.
this game is pretty good i 've already uploaded a video on youtube: http://bit.ly/1G8R24P
This was an amazing game! Seriously, I LOVED it!! There was a bit of frustration at the end there with some of the puzzles, but all in all it was wonderful! I'm going to post a playthrough of it on my YouTube Channel (czmAvery) and I will DEFINITELY be reccommending it to everyone I play with. Wonderful job, man! Thanks for letting me play!
Hi Frogge. For some reason it will not show a Reply button under your comments. Not sure if it's because I'm a new GameJolt user or what, so for now it looks like these will need to be separate comments. :(
In any case, you need to gather some information to open the chest in Anna's room. It should all be in the note left in the foyer. Which item are you stuck on?
Dear Ms. Arzeno:
I write to you bearing grievous news...
So begins the letter to bestselling American novelist Olive Arzeno, informing her of her estranged uncle's demise at his home in Great Britain's North York Moors. After making the voyage across the Atlantic to see firsthand the house and property she has just inherited, Olive finds a mysterious note left by her departed uncle and signs that a deeper tragedy may have befallen the previous inhabitants of this quiet, empty home in the hills of northeastern England...
Epiphany is a short 2-D adventure game created with the RPG Maker VX Ace engine. Throughout the game you will search for clues, solve logic-based puzzles, and uncover long-buried secrets.
GAME FEATURES
Length: 1-4 hours, depending on how quickly your brain deconstructs the puzzles
Inventory: Though most of the puzzles are logic-based and NOT of the "use the peanut butter on the balloon to get the hippopotamus skeleton" variety, there IS an inventory that serves mainly as a repository for clues you collect. That said, I highly suggest having pen and paper handy for notes!
Graphics: I'm not an artist, so a huge debt is owed to the RPG Maker community for almost all of the game's visual assets. Full list of contributors in the Credits section below.
Music: 100% original compositions (all by me, so if you hate them, aim your vitriol at me alone!).
Save System: This is a save-anywhere game, with the save function accessible from the in-game menu.
CONTROLS
Keyboard:
ARROW KEYS - Move character
Z - Inspect items of interest/Confirm selection
X - Open menu/Decline selection
Xbox 360 Controller:
Left Stick - Move character
A - Inspect items of interest/Confirm selection
X - Open menu/Decline selection
Change Game Window:

TIPS
Inspect everything! Not every stick of furniture or scrap of clothing will be important, but if you hope to solve every puzzle, you'll need to be diligent about your sleuthing.
Save often! You never know when your house/apartment/hotel room will lose power and wipe out an hour's progress, so save your game frequently.
Check your inventory! Items you're carrying may carry important clues, so if you're stuck, it might be worth seeing if what you've got with you can be of any help.
