I've only just started, but had to get something off my chest early, there's a snap to the dialogue which feels very Catch-22 and I am all about that. It's provoking some very fond memories of the multiple reads I've had of it!

(+3)

Anyone got a wind of what the author is currently working on? the latest update of them was from September last year and absolute silence eversince. Hope they are doing fine, this is some of the best work I have read on this site.

(+2)

Author made a single retweet in April, still no idea what they are currently doing, but at least, not dead.

Its been months and im STILL occasionally sobbing over the remus endings

(+9)

Having finished this VN several months ago I still find myself pondering it fondly from time to time. I found myself in the unfortunate position of discovering the project after it's completion, and as such was unable to reabsorb the story multiple times as it was updated. The characters and their motivations are intriguing, the story thought provoking and the art oh so easy on the eyes. Reminds me strongly of Michael Crichton's novel Timeline, they both share many similarities but the most glaring of all being they're both criminally under rated and oft unheard of. "In Case of Emergency" is a fantastic piece of work and I hope more people like myself stumble across it and enjoy it as well.

Definitely one of the best VNs i've read. Funny, endearing, real and dramatic. Loved the soundtrack, especially the main theme and the credits song. Also Luke, my beloved funny cat.

(+7)

this game is everything i could ask for in a visual novel. some meta-level morality coming across in both story and mechanics. the writer clearly understands how the context of the medium affects the story. plenty of intellegent humor. the mechanics working with and against the morals to tell a story more true to (my experience of) reality than any FVN before.

(1 edit)

Just wondering is There a guide on how to get all cg and also if all nsfw scenes are going to be text only or are there pictures

(+10)

One route down and and just left in that hollowed state after finishing a good book. Fantastic writing which leaves food for thought in how we treat our own lives and passing the days away.

Thank you for telling this story and I look forward to going through the rest of the routes. 

I hope to see more of your work in the future if you plan on doing a sequel or something new entirely!

SPOILERS!!!

Fuuuuck man, Cedric's route destroyed me. First, it was him staying in Peregrine, and like, having no choive but leave him there hit me so hard, for a reason i cannot comprehend...

And then, in denial (and tears), I say 'fuck it' and go back in hope to find a better ending...

Well, I did find it. Cedric coming back was lovely to see. (...) and then he says hes leaving for good. On a life trip to the other side of the country. Like, yeah, i understand, he has to do that, but damm... it still hurts.

Its such a bittersweet ending... but nonetheless a great one. (Both, imo)

All I wanted to do through the second ending was hug Cedric and never let him go. But he has to go.


aaaaa my heaaart!! I can only hope him and Kieran never gets separated again...

(+1)

May I ask you how did you find that route? I don't know what do I need for reach it

(2 edits)

oooh man youre in bad luck, was so long ago i already forgot. I do remember it being really hard to find tho lol. I think it has something to do with not playing swords with him at the start

yup, I was right 

(+4)

I love Luke

(1 edit) (+2)

The irony in this game is... well, ironic.

(2 edits) (+13)

Damn... I've only gotten two endings thus far, but... it hits so hard. I'm still crying, damnit. I love this game, I love the characters, and it hurts me to know that I won't get more content than what already exists here.

This is freaking awesome. Quickly became my absolute favorite game I've ever played... I... damn. I need to go cry into a pillow now...

Also, I'm just a little sad my favorite character doesn't have a romance route...

This is such a good game, thank you so much for your amazing work. I'm going to keep these characters in my heart and try to not let it break...

Today i got two endings.

(SPOILER ALERT)

One with Wes and it was soo cute 🤩

I like that he try to live his life with main character (i forget how was his name) and he was so brave to say that for his father. (I'm proud for that i got him first)

And another with Cedric and he decided to be in that world (i almost cry at that moment)

Need to get ending with Lynx and try to find way with Cedric to get him in Real world (i think that there another end with him)

And k don't know what end will be whith that Lynx (and yeah, i got some screenshots when the main character got dildo in his had and brake the 4-th wall, it's quite fuuny how they all standings like this, like Wes i think that he try to say "w*f where did you get this", and Cedric "Man... Put that thing down...")

I really like to play this game and sometime i got a b*ner just reading that kind of stuff (maybe just because i was a roleplayer)

Really really good work!

Thank you for your good visual novele!

(1 edit) (+1)

Hints for the last two pleaseeeeeeee

(+2)

All my doubts when this was in early development have been dispelled.  I am clawing for where I must have erred, but that is the beauty of this VN.  No matter how bleak things become and the darkness may rage, there is always a light, but one must know how to make it out.  One must really know how to navigate the void, in order to find even the light's brightest spot.  For that I will not give up and will keep trying to get the ending that I want, but wanting means nothing if I don't earn it.  For me I always want to earn what I want, for nothing is free, and all have free will, so one must work for it.

(+3)

why is this genuinely.

So.

Fucking.

Amazing.

If there's a word above adore, I don't know it. I tear up every time I reached the ending. I looked at the gallery for the kiss with Cedric and I teared up.

*Sigh* I wish Remus could come with us TvT

Hey how can I get the last image of Remus?

 

(+1)

I have no clue how to express the severity of pissed off that I've reached. I love this one so much that it nearly broke my heart. I fell for Remus pretty quickly even if it left me in tears. I certainly enjoyed Wes and Cedrik! This was a true masterpiece it nearly breaks my heart to know it's finished.

(+2)

Your game is maybe one of the greatest game I played in my life.  I've just finish two of the ending with Cedrik and I just couldn't stop crying since. I think I just find a to much of myself in both Kieran and Cedric, in which I'm the loner who can't make friends but also nearly always depend on my only true friend, I've had friends that I just stop talking to and don't even know if they will ever want to talk to me again and I've been trying to escape life with fantasies I can make up in my head or by playing video games. Seeing the end might just have broke me. Just thinking about it still make want to cry. It's pretty hard for a video game to make me sad until I at least tear up a little but this game might have reach a whole other level if it made me cry that much, I think I might have never played or experience something that felt so close to me personaly  that it made me feel that much different emotions. Sadness ? Envy ? Hope ? I don't know and I actually don't know I even want to know. I'd like to thank you for bringing this game in this world even if a part of me wish I didn't play if I knew just how much sadness could be brought upon me.

(+16)

Stunning! Seldom do I leave reviews for games like this but I was so pleasantly surprised by this one that I have to. The writing and prose are some of the strongest I've seen in any FVN, the pacing is breakneck without ever feeling rushed and the narrative strikes a wonderful balance between emotional and comedic-I was simultaneously moved and audibly giggling all the way through and that seldom happens with visual novels that attempt humour. The characters are really strong and their individual struggles and personalities are conveyed wonderfully in the few hours the game takes to complete-especially Kieran, whose goofy demeanour made for a refreshing change of pace from the typical muted/blank-slate protagonist. I'll eagerly be on the lookout for any future projects of yours.

(1 edit) (+2)

This game has to be one of the best story games I have every played, the endings were satisfying and maybe me emotional heh. 10/10 game

Side note:

I wish there were more art scenes throughout the stories but other than that perfect

I take it the game is finished? But it will be updated to improve?

Are their multiple endings

Different ones for each character, and variations on them depending on choices made.

(-2)

is the game finished or still in development?

(+1)

It's finished

(+1)

This was unlike any VN I have played. It was excellent on so many different levels from the art to the wonderful storytelling. Couldn't recommend enough. 

(3 edits)

Really enjoyed this whole story and some of the surprising variations on how the endings can go based on choices earlier. Big fan of having friendship routes available in addition to the romantic ones too.

Spoilers below:












I particularly like that you can't choose to stay in Peregrine if you've fixed your friendship with Cedric but otherwise chosen the Remus path, because Cedric drags you out. Pretty much a reversal of the same situation in his own ending where it's based on how well you've handled your friendship / relationship as well.

(+2)

This VN, just… wow. All I can say is that I’m left wounded by reading it. It is so bittersweet, and beautiful. Cedric really hurt me deep. I felt the pain of Kieran while reading the route.

Besides that, the writing was on point. But I got lost, there was a problem with the flow of the story, but passing that… I’m just… Pained by it.

Did you get to his good ending? It's a lot less painful

Which one? The one that he stays or the one that he leaves? I can’t say it any less vague, or I will spoil the ending a bit.

I have seen the one where he stays, the one that he leaves, but not the other one that people call… Too far away. I guess that would be the worst ending.

I do not know why, but all “good” endings, leave the feeling of bittersweet.

(2 edits)

Apologies if this spoils anything for someone









A bittersweet ending is more realistic to how life is...that's why it hurts. Perhaps Kieran and Cedric will meet again someday and move in together; maybe later they'll even get married. The future is up to your imagination 

(1 edit)

I know, and thank you for clarifying that. But, the game is anything but realistic… to some extent. There are realistic parts of it, but I will say that realism. Doesn’t apply to the whole story. Anyway, I understand that for the terms of their relations from their endings. Not everyone has a path already build. We follow the unknown in the world, so I can accept that the endings are bittersweet.

Life is full of unknown paths that we have to explore. And not all of them end in a happy and loving relations. Some lead to problems with family, others lead to fights, even death. For that, I do appreciate that their relations aren’t fully developed after their travels. And so… that is my point of view in this case.

(2 edits) (+4)

Very well put. Life rarely goes to plan, and no one really knows what will happen. The bittersweet conclusion doesn't force a happy ending or a tragic one, but one of uncertainty and room for the unknown. It's easy to long for unrealistic stories because stories themselves are often used to escape from the brutality of the real world. 

Major Spoilers:





That's the moral of In Case of Emergency.  Peregrine seduces the characters with its promises of adventure and freedom, but in reality, it's a shackle holding them to a false world. Escapism can be enticing to those who need it most, but it's never as pure as it makes itself out to be. In the end, they all realize that it's foolish to abandon reality for superficial happiness. 

You never know what happens to the characters, just as you never know what tomorrow may bring. I've played through every path, every story in this game. There's a sort of peace at the end of each so-called "good ending". Although we will never know what becomes of Luke, Cedric, Wesley, Remus, or Kieran, it's a pleasant thought that maybe, just maybe, things will be alright. 

Like you said, life will always have many differing paths and conclusions. Not everything will end in happiness or love, and more times than not, it won't. It would be naive of me to see the world in black and white. Remus was not evil for doing what he did,  nor was he a savior or hero of any sort. He was a complicated old man who lived a life of fantasy for so long that he had forgotten the truth. 

All of them learn different life lessons at the end of their paths. Wesley realizes that he can't keep living his life for others, not allowing himself to make any decisions for himself or be free. Cedric learns to let go of all the ideals and meanings he tries to force himself to conform to. Luke discovers that not everything in life will have a solution or some sort of magic to repair it. Sometimes you just have to go with things and live in the moment. 

Anyway, I know I probably seem insane for taking the time to write this much, but I enjoy to have discussions like this with people. Some of the best conversations to be had are with those you'll most likely never see or know. Thank you for taking the time to read this, your willingness to converse with people in such detail is admirable.

In case of emergency:

  1. Break the glass
  2. Break the hammer
  3. Break fabric of reality
  4. Drink some soda i guess
  5. Rate this game as masterpiece
(+2)

Just finished this game. What a great read. It's enjoyable and i love Kieran's personality. 



Spoiler Alert



Honestly though, i wish it's longer like other VNs, like the entire week before the adventure or even during the adventure will help developing the characters and make me even more attached to them. Like, Remus' betrayal (and defeat) just made me went oh okay because i didn't really... care for him. Same goes with other characters like Wes, Cedric, and Luke. Don't get me wrong, i love them and their void-fantasy and good ending made me sad and smile (especially Wes' route. God i love that tiger man) and it sticks in my head for a few days but i wish there's... more chances and scenes to made their route even more impactful to me/players.

That's my only complain, but i still love this game. Wes best boy. Baby i love you so much.

Also i don't think Cedric's (good) end is as sad as people says. Cedric said he promise to keep in contact with Kieran and even give him 'green light' about their relationship. It sucks he's going away for a while sure, but it's not the end of their relationship. I can still picture a scene of Cedric growing more confident and ready for Kieran after few years which lead to them getting married. Like, it's still really possible in his good end lol.

(1 edit)

Okay so I have a question but I need to do a spoiler tag:




Spoiler









What's the track you used for when Keiran and whoever jumps after him into the Void are climbing out of it? It's the one right before the confrontation with Remus.

Can yall give Me some Guide please

To get romance, click the choices with hearts for the character you want. To get friendship, pick choices that the character you choice will like

Spoilers:
































Choose to talk to Cedric instead of fighting him, and don't choose the "did you?" choice when talking to him by the campfire if you want his  good ending.

If you don't get to know Luke, Cedric, or Wes, you'll end up with Remus. Remus has romance and friendship options as well but he always refuses to go back to the real world with the mc (Kieran). Luke has no romance ending. 

After playing every ending of every character, all CGs will be shown in the gallery. 

(+2)

Does anyone know how to get to Cedric good ending where 

Spoiler











He rides with you to your sister wedding

(-1)

Instead of sparing with Cedric talk to him, it gets you negative points at first, but you get more positive points after the talk.

(+1)(-3)

he asks for the good ending not the way to enter the route

When you're talking to him by the campfire, make sure not to choose the "did you?" choice.

Thank you I got the ending

Is there a way to get the last CG? I've gotten all but one the second to last in the gallery:





Spoilers


Wes in the pool

Hanging with Cedric

Diner with Luke

Wes Kiss

Luke Kiss

Cedric Kiss

Cedric too much distance

(+1)(-1)

there are one more you can get by

















not kissing luke.

(+1)

Not as exciting as I'd hoped. but thank you!

(+6)

Wow. After playing this I feel incredibly great and sad at the same time. Great because I loved the story, characters (especially Wes <3) and music (especially outro). Sad because I will probably never play something as amazing as this. Definitely moving this to my top 1 VN <3. Thank You for this masterpiece. 

Also I have a question, will You be making a next VN? Would love to see more of your work <3

(+1)

Question. How can i get wes's romance route?

(+1)

Just get all the heart options... it's pretty straightforward hahaha be flirty and clear about what u want :D

(+1)

Is there a good ending for Remus? i got both when you stay behind and the one you leave him can you bring him along?, oh and can you get a romance ending with Luke?

(+1)

*SPOILER*






The romance ending with him isn't explicit


And as far as I've seen, these are the only 2 ends possible for Remus, he refuses to go out to the real World

(+3)

I have recently finished Wes' route, and man that was wowee. 
But anyways, beside that this might be a stupid, (or strange) question considering sources are already provided, but what are/is(?) the soundtrack present during the main menu, and end credits?

(+3)

Main menu theme is Komiku's "The main reason we are here," and the end credits is "The only reason we end here." Would highly recommend checking out and supporting the artist! https://chezmonplaisir.bandcamp.com/album/a-tale-is-never-forgotten

(+2)

Oh wow, thanks I should've figured, but I didn't find anything on the places I was looking for it, but anyways thank you again!
The theme is really sweet!
