Rumpelstiltskin
A downloadable game for Windows
(A short thing made for Gamedawg's Monster Game Jam.)
This is a fully-voiced interactive short story that might know your name.
A fair warning. Do not tell lies.
And remember. It only ends one way. So, be honest.
When playing, I recommend you use your REAL NAME. The game recognizes 1000+ names. You never know. You might get a little personalized surprise.

Aw man, it didn't recognize my name because it was spelt differently...
i loved the story. i didnt fully understand the ending until i was editing the video but fuck this was a good one
Spoiler question
Is there an option to find out the sisters name?
Sad thought you would play more with the Rumpelstiltskin story idea like if there is way to find it out in the second round or something. But regardless of that the game was pretty interesting sadly the choices didn't matter/: I tried to do different options in the second round to get maybe a different reaction. But sadly it was the same...which took the mysterious feeling away from the first time playing /:
This was such an amazing game! The story was fantastic and how everything was setup from the very beginning was just so well done and well thought through! The graphics and voice acting was really, really good and melded together so well to make such a good experience and made it super enveloping to be in.
The simplicity of the other parts of the story like the part from going to the office to the interrogation room really accentuated and made the main story that much more stronger, and the subtle hints that were dropped throughout those parts also strengthened everything and showed the great work and effort put into everything, it was pretty much a flawless and well made story and game with everything being payed off at the end in such a great twist!
The SCP-like creature that the player played as was really a great character as was the other agent; they both had reasons, emotions and values and everything was just so well put together, it was like reading a short novel from the start to the end. Still can't believe how many things were setup literally from the beginning of the game till the very end, and how the story pulls of one more twist at the end, everything was just so well done and this was a fantastic game, and so, so much fun to play together!
Absolutely great job on it, good luck for any other future projects!
I loved it so much!!
Hi! I really want to play your game but it keeps telling me that I can't open the application after I download it. I'm on Mac. Do you know what I can do ? Thanks for reading!
Thank you for replying! I'll read this reddit thread!
I was surprised when it said my name, I didn't except that, BTW the game is really cool! but the choices don't really effect the game, I played it 2 times and the characters responses are always the same
l loved it so much,thank you
AWESOME!!! This game was so much fun!!! Also, thanks for the They/Them options.
An awesome game! What started off as an average-looking RPG turned into a dark and unsettling story. The voice acting was a nice touch and the twist at the end was pretty cool. This game was well thought out and I would love to see more like this - excellent job!
Such a good game :) I really enjoyed it
I adored the twist at the end
Could I possibly get an explanation of the game? I played it but I’m not the smartest and didn’t fully understand XD Don’t get me wrong, it was a super cool game and I really enjoyed it, I’m just a bit confused.
Spoilers!

thank you!
Wow. That was really good. Not gonna lie, the moment I opened the game and realized it was an RPG Maker game, my expectations dropped, but as I played through, the voice acting. imagery, well thought out dialogue, and the personalized surprise that I won't spoil for other people all combined to make a really creepy amazing experience. I also appreciate that the game was short. If it had been any longer, it may have overstayed its welcome, but you ended it just before it hit that point.
That was such an amazing game! I loved the voice acting, and tbh, I find Rumpelstiltskin's voice very cute lol
I wish I knew what the personalized surprise was, but I don't think I got it
The atmosphere was honestly quite heavy.
Dr. Dreimann doesn't really sound like a senior researcher but overall this game is great, "0-71" voice was great.
If you wanna have a short but cool experience then have a go at it.
wow! Creppy game
If you're planning on playing this then I suggest you don't look any further and just play it. Here is my playthrough for those more interested in watching:
This is surprisingly well thought-out and executed for an RPG Maker game. I think the voice acting is done well and the twist while not completely unexpected, did surprise me. I'd like to see more stuff like this because it gives RPG Maker a good name, something that it sorely needs.I'm not gonna lie. The game's really solid and having a Voice Actor helps this particular game alot. The story being told is also interesting. The subversion of expectations is strong in this game. I hope you can make more games like this in the future.

Thank you so much for playing! Subscribed!
This is a really terrifying game that constantly makes you tense. And its fully voiced too! and it also makes sense why our main character doesn't have a voice actor... wont spoil. The twist is amazing. scared /10
This is... a really well make game. Just for the sheer fact it's fully voiced! 1/2 way I sort of expecting something like the ending would happen but still, it's very interesting and got me playing without stopping!
Hello! Thank you so much! Subscribed to you! :)
Thanks! XD. Hope this will get more people playing your game! Dr. Gold~
Just all around a really good game. The story was good, the art was good, the sounds were good, the voice acting was good. It was all just good.
