Scar of the Doll: A Psycho-Horror Story about the Mystery of an Older Sister Reviews

One of the best visual novels I have ever played! I played the original version when it was released on iOS and I absolutely loved the story. After hearing about this remake, I couldn't help but buy the game and re-experience it. It has a mix of horror and suspense, whilst also leaning more towards the nature of science fiction. The soundtrack is so beautiful, I wish they could release it separately!! The remake also features amazing artwork and, compared to the original, this is a HUGE upgrade. Buy this game!!

Beautiful story. As someone who has never played the original game, I did enjoy this story almost TOO much! The characters are all pretty unique with sides to them that really make you question what's going on. The music is on par with the atmosphere the devs wanted to give in each situation. I found myself questioning my choices throughout my entire playthrough. Very awesome and refreshing that another visual novel has made me question if my front door was locked in my own living space LOL! I love it and totally recommend this visual novel to anyone wanting a good spook from a visual novel.

Aw I'm so sad that it ended so quickly, I absolutely loved the story and got attached to the characters lol. I was also really surprised by how mesmerizing the soundtrack and overall atmosphere are. :> I wish to find out more about the lore, it's so interesting.

I played this Remake right after playing the original game, which I found very interesting and atmospheric. This Remake has not the unique feeling to it, but makes it up in terms of emotions. The characters feel much more lively (especially the main protagonist) and some story bits were added to clarify things that were left open for guessing in the original game. The epilogue was a precious addition where I realized how much these characters grew on me. I don't know if I would've been so invested had I only played the Remake, but I'm still inclined to rate it as a very cool Visual Novel for itself. Also, I had no translating issues whatsoever, and everything worked well on Steamdeck.

I like this game for what it is, or rather what the original is. It's a good, albeit limited story that doesn't take up much of your time This remake has nice music and good artwork but it feels really sloppy. The text cuts out near the bottom, some lines of text in the library are untranslated, and there's typos here and there. Hell, they blacked out portraits of (minor) characters who were fully drawn in the original. Hoping there's a patch soon to smooth things out a bit but regardless of all that, this remake sucks man.
