sad

I bought this game, but it can't be adapted well on my mobile phone, and the full-screen notification bar can't be hidden. I hope you can pay attention to it and push updates.

A Hauntingly Beautiful Experience | 令人难忘的美丽体验

Detention is such a good game absolutely worth every second. From start to finish, it pulls you into a world that’s both deeply unsettling and stunningly crafted. The atmosphere is thick with tension and melancholy, creating a constant sense of unease that perfectly complements the story.

What really stood out to me was the art direction. The backgrounds are hauntingly beautiful, almost like walking through a series of eerie, living paintings. Every detail feels intentional, adding layers of meaning and emotion to an already powerful narrative.

It’s not just a horror game, it’s a thoughtful and an emotional experience that stays with you long after it ends. Highly recommend for anyone who appreciates a good story, gorgeous visuals, and an atmosphere that truly gets under your skin.

是一款非常出色的游戏,绝对值得每一秒的游玩时间。从头到尾,它将你带入一个既令人不安又精致构建的世界。游戏的氛围充满了紧张与忧郁,始终营造出一种不安感,与故事本身完美契合。

最让我印象深刻的是美术风格。背景画面美得令人毛骨悚然,仿佛在一幅幅诡异而鲜活的画作中穿行。每一个细节都像是精心设计,为原本就深刻的剧情增添了更多的情感与意义。

这不仅仅是一款恐怖游戏,它更是一段引人深思、充满情感的体验,哪怕通关之后,它依然会在你心中留下深刻印象。强烈推荐给所有喜欢精彩剧情、精美画面以及扣人心弦氛围的玩家。

I Have NEVER Gotten So Close to Crying at the End of a Game

This game was insane and I mean that in a good way. Like I am in absolute awe. The graphics? Beautiful. Story? Amazing. Characters? Heart wrenching and real. Length? Perfect— could have played it even longer.

I really loved the old Taiwanese architecture used throughout the game and how the whole main storyline is based on the real events of a 1947 high school during the Taiwanese White Terror. I am an American and I try to learn as much as I can about other cultures since a lot of history and cultures are left out of the American education system. I knew Taiwan had been through a lot on its journey to independence and being the human rights haven it is today, but I had no idea the extent it went to. My eyes were opened by this game to something I had remained ignorant to until now. More games like this should exist. It’s a beautiful way of making people truly immerse themselves into history to understand what people experienced during that time period and learn about another culture. I highly recommend this game and can’t wait to go download RedCandle’s other game “Devotion” (it cannot be bought anywhere except their website now due to political controversy and banning issues). My only warning is that this game will throw you through an emotional roller coaster, so be prepared to go from spooked in the beginning to on the verge of tears by the end. I finished this game during my lunch break in public and I’m not the type to cry in front of people, but you best believe I was struggling not to after I finished playing.

Absolutely amazing. 10/10 Thank you RedCandle Productions for making this beautiful game ❤️

Awesome!

Please bring Devotion to mobile soon!

LOVE THIS GAMEREE

if you play this game and you don’t know what it means it’s basically a high school girl that ratted out but there was a secret group reading inappropriate books. And then they got taken to jail, and someone got killed I think and she couldn’t live with the guilt so she killed herself. I was hooked on this game. It’s so beautiful and amazing 10 out of 10. I love this game so much, what’s even crazier It’s a real story freaking love this game download it right now!l

Love this

This game is amazing but so freaking sad I can’t I didn’t understand it at first but when you understand what’s happening I cantttt

とても良かったです!

ずっと前から気になっていてつい最近、購入をさせて頂きました!

結論から言うととても楽しかったです!
謎解きもありストーリー性もあり、アクションもありと盛りだくさんでした!!

※ネタバレを含みます※

ストーリーは1900年代の中国?台湾?をモチーフにしたもので、当時の時代背景が複雑だった故のストーリーといったところでしょうか。。

最初の主人公が変わるところは意外性があり面白かったです!

自由に知識を追い求めたいと願う少女が巻き起こす事件は、責任や重圧感を感じさせ私もヒヤリとさせられました。

後には戻れない、やってしまったことの取り返しはつかない。と改めて教えてくれるような作品で、私が苦手な ただビックリするホラーとは掛け離れた、考えさせられる内容のホラーゲームです!

2エンドとも完全なハッピーエンドとは言えず、とにかく内容は重いです。
しかし、考察に必要な情報は十分に与えてくださりとても面白いストーリーです!
気になったらとにかくプレイすることをお勧め致します!

クリアしてみての感想。

神ゲーすぎる!今後もこのようなゲームを作っていただきたい。

开发者还有其他游戏的发布计划吗?

返校太棒了,是个十分用心的游戏

Kept me intrigued and has much potential!

Playing this in 2024 and it’s difficult to find a game that keeps you interested, with good jumpscares and all but also leads you down a story without being rushed or anything. This game has much potential, even though it’s 7-8 years old now it still has that spark to it. I absolutely love this game, I got a little emotional throughout 😭
I hope to see more from Red Candle games

good

super duper good 10/10 would play again, I was confused for some parts like the clock part but I got it after like ten minutes.

Mysterious and fun!

I loved playing this game because it was a new cutscene and mysterious clue at every turn. The story was amazing, which I won’t spoil to any new players. I enjoyed the game so much that I played the game multiple times to get the secret ending. This game was definitely worth the 5 dollars I paid.

Gripping story

I found the story and folklore of the game difficult to relate to. But that doesn’t warrant a low rating on its own. I actually would give this experience a 5 out of 5 but the overall tone of it turned out to be very bleak. :(

I appreciate the creators for putting this together. Fair warning to anyone who may struggle with mental illness, this “game” has a lot of triggers. But there is a fair disclaimer from the creators.

LOVE THIS GAMEE😜💅🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼

BRO I FREAKING CRIED AT THE END😭😭 THE GAME AND THE MOVIE ITSELF HAS THE SADDEST ENDING OMGGGGG!!!!!!

명작

먼저 시대는 대만의 1960년대 계엄령.
우리도 비슷한 시기를 겪었기에 더 몰입할 것이라 생각한다.

Quá hay

Cốt truyện xuất sắc. Mình chưa bao giờ review game. Game này là lần đầu tiên review sau 10 năm chơi game trên ios

Epic game! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Really really great game. I was a little apprehensive when purchasing this game as I didn’t know what to expect or if it was in English but I need not have worried the developers have done a brilliant job. The puzzles are excellent and the only time I used a walkthrough was my own mistake as the answer was very logical I was just lazy. The story is intriguing and so many unexpected moments. The monsters are scary without making the game impossible like other games. The atmosphere spooky. Some really original ideas too. It reminds me of forgotten memories another excellent game, however with more puzzles which makes me love it even more. I hope these brilliant developers make another like this one!

환원도 폰으로 내주세요

Taiwan No.1 🇹🇼

とても面白かった

映画とドラマを見たのでプレイ。
台湾の実際にあった政治背景、文化等盛り込まれていてとても面白かった。
終始付きまとうじわじわとした不気味な気持ち悪さや主人公の心情に合わせた描写、とにかく表現や演出が本当に素晴らしかった。
様々なホラーゲームをプレイしてきたがここまでのクオリティはなかなかない。
映画がとても良かったのでぜひ見てほしい。
小さな会社と聞いたのでこのゲーム会社にはこれからももっと頑張ってほしい!
好期待喔,謝謝!

많은 생각이 들어요

모바일 게임은 아니지만 환원 플레이 영상 보고 관심 생겨서 구매했어요. 게임하고 영화화 된 반교 보면 더 이해가 잘 됩니다. 이 게임사가 더 발전했으면 좋겠어요ㅜㅜ 그만 압박하라고 좀,,,
