So Many GamesChristopher LannooFeb 20265/5 starsThe game asks you once again: who do you trust? And who are you willing to fight for? Are you ready to face the consequences of the choices you’ve made? Do you even realise how serious those consequences can get? Just like Sybil, Kaneeka’s mother, Scarlet Hollow seems to be answering questions by raising even more questions. But answers are coming, and you might not like what you’ll get.

RPG FanDom KimAug 202187/100Episode 2 continues on in much the same manner as Episode 1. It has consistently high-quality writing, which makes for an engaging experience all the way through. Barring occasional hiccups with some of the new cast members, Episode 2 manages to improve upon its predecessor in every way, from the expanded range of choices to the overall narrative structure of the unfolding plot. The months-long wait till Episode 3 will be a painful one, but if the quality continues in this manner, I’m more than happy to wait.

The Punished BacklogClint Morrison, Jr.Apr 20259.2/10Scarlet Hollow is currently an incomplete masterpiece. I devoured the existing episodes twice, and I hope to play through them one more time with a different combination of traits before Episode 5’s release. The game told me early on that I can’t save everyone, but damn it if I didn't want to try. I truly cannot wait to play the fifth episode of Scarlet Hollow and return to this town.
