Por alguna razón que no comprendo tengo recuerdos de haber jugado este juego en los años 1600 en mi teléfono, literalmente se me desbloquearon recuerdos que no sabía que tenía, recordé cada línea de diálogo dentro del juego, LOCURA. 🤡

Me gusto la banda sonora, tiene una enseñanza muy bonita, nunca hay que olvidar lo que nos hizo personas, pero- Yo no estoy listo para esa conversación aún. 10/10

Psdt: El juego me duró lo mismo que yo en la cama.

[h2]A story about loss and forgiving yourself[/h2]

Right off the bat I wanna say, I feel like this is one of those games where you're not gonna get a lot of value out of it unless you 100% it, or at minimum try to get all the endings, so if you don't like to play like that, this probably isn't for you.

I thought this was pretty short but sweet, as with all Stranga Games, there's some jank, especially with the menus, but this is an okay experience.

The gameplay isn't anything new, as with almost all Stranga Games, this is a narrative game, with some puzzle elements, so if you were looking for something pushing boundaries of what games can do, this isn't that, this won't even come close, but if you're looking for an interactive story, there's no harm in giving this a try.

I will say, the price is maybe a bit high for what it is, if you especially wanna try this, I'd say get it on at least a 30% off sale, or ideally 50% or more.

There's not a lot for me to say about the game besides this, the sprites are about as good as most other Stranga games, the music didn't really stand out to me here, the story was fine but nothing revolutionary, good way to kill some time, not a terrible experience, I don't think it'll stick with me or anything but I'm sure for some people it might.

It's pretty average honestly.

Una idea interesante que se queda un poco corta.

Red Bow propone un concepto llamativo, con niveles que ofrecen distintos finales, lo cual invita a rejugar y experimentar(o guardar la partida antes de elegir el final y cargarla para ver los demas finales sin jugar todo de nuevo). Sin embargo, la experiencia se siente muy breve y con poco desarrollo narrativo.

Me hubiera gustado ver más historia, lore o personajes que profundicen el mundo que plantea. Tiene buenas ideas, pero termina antes de que logren desplegarse del todo.

Since the dev sent me a key for Strange Dream I only thought it was fair for me to purchase and play the first game followed by the second game in the same stream.

I thought the game was very cute, had beautiful pixel art, and had a great story however, from a programming viewpoint it is riddled with a lot of problems. I encountered several bugs, but the worst was the looping dialogue where I'd get softlocked into a specific route as the required items would not spawn and the dialogue would loop continuously (specifically at the beginning with the lady in the house).

The other issues I could deal with, but as I was trying to get the last ending this bug happened and I just said "Forget it. I did most of the game" and quit. I thought the game was neat other than those problems and the many spelling errors!

It's not a great game but it is an alright game and doesn't deserve a negative review. There are a few spelling mistakes and wrong words in the text here and there but that doesn't detract from a game that's clearly been put together with a lot of love and care by someone struggling to deal with something that happened in their life.

You do have to go through the same things multiple times making different choices if you want unlock all the achievements, I suggest saving the game before trying things so you can try doing them differently from that point if you don't want to start over but you'll still probably need to start over at least once to gain all the achievements.

Short and simple, I liked the story. It was a bit challenging to find the true ending with just one save.
I really do wish you could use a mouse and just point and click. My poor inflamed wrists did not enjoy spamming the enter button to skip through all the text while trying to find the good ending. I'm hesitating to play the sequel because of this. :/

Se você curte jogos curtos, atmosféricos e cheios de significado, Red Bow é simplesmente imperdível. A jornada da Roh por esse mundo estranho e melancólico prende do início ao fim — e a presença da Kubi deixa tudo ainda mais marcante. Ela é aquele tipo de personagem que, mesmo com pouco tempo de tela, fica na sua cabeça pela história, pelo visual e pela forma como influencia o clima do jogo.

Red Bow é daqueles games que provam que não precisa de gráficos supercomplexos pra entregar algo impactante. A trilha, o estilo pixelado, a ambientação sombria e os encontros bizarramente interessantes criam uma experiência que você termina rápido, mas pensa por muito tempo depois.

Recomendo demais — simples, tenso, bonito e cheio de personalidade.
A platina vem com o decorrer do game, sem falar que são 4 finais.

It's a short game with a good story, i loved the art style and although the controls were a little clunky at first, you quickly figure it out. It's not hard to go back and redo the story to get the desired endings, but it does feel satisfying to figure out what you missed doing each section initially.

Unfortunately, the english version has a lot of typos that cheapens out the experience. And the third level although the song is great, it's so much louder than the rest.

A very interesting, short game. There are different paths you can take too, that being said be very careful where you save your game, I had to restart from the very beginning a few times which was very frustrating. You can't get all of the achievements in one playthrough and you should definitely follow a guide if you want them (I didn't bother with 100%). I was also expecting the game to be scarier, but it wasn't really the case which isn't a bad nor a good thing. It's marked with the gore tag, but there isn't really much of it nor is it scary. Overall, a pleasant and fun experience, the puzzles were great too, easy, but nice! Really looking forward to playing the other two games in the trilogy (order goes Red Bow -> Ashina: The Red Witch -> My Big Sister Remastered)!

Red Bow, developed by Stranga and published by GrabTheGames, is a compact yet haunting horror adventure that weaves together unsettling imagery, moral ambiguity, and a deeply atmospheric presentation. It tells the story of Roh, a young girl who wakes up in a strange dreamlike world where reality and nightmare blur together. From the outset, the game embraces a surreal and melancholy tone, one that explores themes of death, regret, and the choices people make when confronted with despair. Rather than relying on jump scares or gore, it leans on its emotional weight and eerie world-building to leave a lasting impression.

The game plays out in a top-down pixel art style reminiscent of old-school RPGs, but its focus is firmly on exploration and narrative rather than combat or complex systems. Players guide Roh through unsettling environments, meeting grotesque or sorrowful characters who represent fragments of her inner fears and memories. Progress often depends on collecting items, solving light puzzles, and making decisions that can alter the story’s outcome. The moral dimension of these choices is crucial: some paths emphasize compassion, while others confront darker impulses, ultimately leading to multiple endings. This interactivity gives players agency, while still keeping the experience tightly focused.

Visually, Red Bow captures a nostalgic yet eerie aesthetic. The pixel art is deceptively simple but used effectively to create unsettling environments, from shadowy streets to distorted interiors. Its muted palette, punctuated by sharp contrasts, gives the impression of a world that is both familiar and corrupted. The audio design amplifies this atmosphere, with ambient tracks that shift between quiet melancholy and tense unease, while sound effects are carefully placed to highlight moments of dread or isolation. Silence is often as powerful as the music, creating space for the player to dwell on the unsettling themes.

One of Red Bow’s strengths is how quickly it establishes an emotional connection despite its brevity. The story does not spell everything out, instead leaving many details ambiguous, which encourages interpretation. Roh’s journey through this fragmented nightmare can be seen as both a literal exploration of a haunted world and a metaphor for confronting one’s own guilt and mortality. While some players may find this ambiguity frustrating, others will appreciate the freedom to form personal interpretations of the narrative. The different endings add to this replayability, encouraging players to see how alternate choices shape the outcome of Roh’s story.

At the same time, the game’s short runtime is both a benefit and a drawback. Most players can finish it in one to two hours, which makes it feel like an extended vignette rather than a full-length adventure. On one hand, this conciseness ensures that the atmosphere never overstays its welcome, and its impact can be sharp and memorable. On the other, those who become invested in its unsettling world may find themselves wishing for more depth, more puzzles, and a broader exploration of the themes it touches on. The writing, while evocative, occasionally stumbles with awkward phrasing or grammar that slightly undermines the otherwise strong mood.

Despite these limitations, Red Bow succeeds as a short but powerful experience. Its pixel art style, chilling atmosphere, and willingness to tackle heavy subject matter help it stand apart from more conventional horror titles. It is less about fear in the traditional sense and more about reflection—on loss, choices, and the shadows people carry with them. For players who value atmosphere and narrative weight over mechanical complexity or length, it delivers a thoughtful and unsettling journey. It may not satisfy those seeking a robust or lengthy adventure, but as a concise exploration of guilt and nightmare, it leaves a quiet but lasting impression.

Rating: 8/10

Didnt know a single thing about this game before i picked it up, it is a very short and sweet story that i will not spoil here.

Depending on your actions the story changes and there are alot of things to miss depending on how you play but you can replay it quickly since the game is that short it may take about an hour or even less to finish your first playtrough and then to go trough the rest of the game for different endings is super fast aswell so if you want to see all aspects of it then it wont take much time at all,

Id say give it a go if have some time to relax and you like a nice story to boot.

Here is my review for Red Bow:

This is one of those RPG maker games. It's a short story driven game with four maps. You interact with two NPCs per area and decide to either save, ignore, or kill. Then you get an ending depending on those choices. The story is passable, rather generic. The developer is clearly non-native English and some translation errors threw me out of the story at times.

Overall, nothing worth writing home about.

Pixel walking sim with a storyline that doesn't make any sense.
About 20 minutes of "game-play" with tons of extremely boring dialogue.
The diverging paths on endings are arbitrary.
Got it in a bundle so it cost me about 50 cents so it's fine if you wanna pad your % with it. Absolutely not worth the full price.

Adorei a mensagem que foi passada também, é linda e nos faz refletir. Foi bem legal fazer cada um dos finais! Acompanhar o enredo me gerou curiosidade com o universo desse jogo.

🎀 This is a short but well-made little game, if mention its content. You'll complete it in ~1h and this is one of those stories where it's quite easy to get a good ending the first time, since the locations are small and their exploration is encouraged. There is enough variety in events, simple puzzles and unique characters. The concept isn't new and quite suits this format, so it could have been more. And if we talk about the dev, it's tedious to write in every review that the tech. part slightly suffers from errors. They are insignificant, don't completely break the game, but they spoil the impressions (all the same bugs with sometimes controls and interface windows).

Getting the "Giving up?" ending/achievement before "Well...I tried." ending/achievement blocks you from getting the latter making it impossible to get 100% achievements.

Edit.
Following Hollow Kane's comment/ guide worked for me, got the achievement by:
Ch.1 Sacrifice ribbon on stone.
Ch.2 Show the photo to Minikui during the confrontation.
Ch.3 Talk to Umbi again after first meeting him, get the rum, talk to Shojo before giving
him the rum.

It's alright. Short and seems somewhat disjointed due to the chapters dealing with different yokai. I think $4.99 is probably a bit much for my taste (I got it from a bundle with several other games). If you have money burning a hole in your pocket then maybe give it a try, certainly not terrible. If you're deciding between it and another purchase then I'd give the decision some pause.

This game is really short, with multiple playthroughs required to get all of the main endings and see how to the 3 story lines can resolve, however due to the very short length, I'd personally say it's worth picking up when it's on sale.

It's cute with some light horror elements, and prompts you to think about the moral and ethical choices you're presented with, to decide peoples fates. Overall, a pretty good way to spend an evening.

It felt rushed I guess would the most accurate to say. Overall it was ok to play, but I don't really want to do another play through.

Word of the wise be careful where you save because I accidentally saved at one point and was unable to undo my choice as there is only save spot so hard to restart the game in order to progress further into the story.

Me sorprendió este juego :0
Es bastante entretenido y si quieres sacar los 3 finales lleva algo de tiempo. La historia me gustó bastante, aunque tengo duda si todos sus juegos se relacionan unos con otros (vi un gameplay que habla sobre esto).
Lo compré en descuento y me salió a 16 pesos mexicanos. Me gustan este tipo de juegos (creo que les llaman RPG)
Calificación: 9/10

I’ve been taking my time waiting for this one. Which may seem weird with how Red Bow has been around for about four years now. It’s been on my list ever since I have finished Ashina: The Red Witch. Basically ages.

It also means I’ve been playing the series completely out of order with how the Big Sister was released first, then Red and finally Ashina. I regret nothing. Inside the game’s timeline Ashina is the prequel. It’s also been an absolutely gorgeous experience and that is the point I’m making here. I needed time to get over it and put the feelings and memories connected with that game inside the drawers they belong. Which is possibly the biggest recommendation I can give to such a brief experience as Ashina. And then, when I was ready to go along with it, Red Bow crashed on me while alt-tabbing to write this piece. I’ve decided to play windowed from that point on.

And since we’re already reached the complaining part, the controls feel raw. They are not redefinable and the character moves with WSAD or arrows, interacts with ENTER and there’s inventory/options under ESCAPE. This turns out to be surprisingly painless in a simple, RPG-maker style adventure game that’s not been made with RPG-maker.

One more complaint. There’s one save file per game. Not a major problem since the story is more or less an hour long. Nonetheless, there are three endings, and they are heavily dependent upon the decisions made throughout the entire story, so without multiple saves at hand, more than one playthrough is required to see everything.

Anyhow. You read me only complaining so far and yet the review is positive. Let me elaborate. Yes, the game is basic and rough around the edges, but I don’t come to Stranga for sophisticated gaming mechanisms or Raytraced graphics. I come around to visit a world.

See, Stranga’s games are not exactly horrors. There definitely are darker themes at play, and it is all wrapped around the Yokai and the world of the dead. Still, the word I’d use to describe them is a ‘fable’. In a traditional sense of the word and not the contemporary, polite one. There are lovely (term applied according to a rather twisted and tragic definition of this word) characters to meet, curious places to see and even an inspiring idea or two. The Stranga’s world is a unique place filled to the brim with a specific kind of charm. There’s also a sense of hope lingering somewhere between the lines. What Red lacks is time.

See, Red is a bit too short to properly immerse the player. Sure, the characters and places are there (some familiar faces too), but one hour is just not enough to properly connect with them in my opinion. Especially because, rather than being a single story, Red Bow is a sequence of three even shorter tales joined together by a single narrative. The conclusion is strong and properly closes the story, I’ve just had the feeling that I didn’t care as much as I would have if the game was longer. Additionally, the puzzles are roughly nonexistent. There’s just a handful of items and a few places to use them. Consequently, players should probably approach this game with a walking sim in mind to avoid disappointment. It is still a wonderful, brave, single-person effort after all.

On a positive note, the music is wonderful as always, although I’ve found the main theme of the third chapter irritating.

Do with this knowledge whatever. And, as always

Está bastante bien, puedes hacer varias cosas lo que le da un poco más de profundidad, interesante, solo me saqué un o de los finales, en un punto me desesperé por no saber que hacer pero en general muy sencillo y narrativo, recomendado además de que es muy barato, en conjunto todo eso vale la pena, no de mis favoritos pero para pasar un buen rato esta muy bien, reflexivo

I bought the game hoping that it would be interesting, unfortunately, it turned out to be simply boring. I couldn't get attached to any character, the music was decent and the dialogues were easy to predict. I'm honestly very disappointed.

Un juego cortito, simple y entretenido, al menos a mi me dejo reflexionando en varias parte sobre la vida o decisiones que nosotros podemos llegar a tomar en nuestro preciado u odiado camino.

Me lo complete al 100% y es un juegito cortito que se los recomiendo a todos, es buenisímo para matar el tiempo y facíl de pasar el 100%

[b]Red Bow[/b] ist ein weiteres Spiel von Stranga Games, welches den Stil von [i]My Big Sister[/i] beibehält.

Als Roh erwachen wir nach einem seltsamen Traum in unserem Zimmer. Nach einer kleinen Erkundungstour verlassen wir das Haus und finden uns auf einer nebeligen Straße wieder. An dessen Ende wartet bereits eine gruselige Kreatur auf uns ...

Es wird ziemlich schnell klar, dass wir uns in einer Traumschleife befinden. Die Mini-Geschichten handeln von der Verarbeitung von Verlust und Trauer. Wie diese ausgehen, hängt von unserer Entscheidung am Ende ab. (Vorher speichern nicht vergessen!!!)

Im Prinzip war es das schon. Da es viele Parallelen zu „My Big Sister“ gibt – unter anderem wiederkehrende Figuren – konnte man schon erahnen, was einen erwartet. Tatsächlich ist dieses Spiel im Vergleich mit weniger Horror-Elementen bestückt, was auch an dessen Kürze liegt.

Es gibt 3 verschiedene Enden, das heißt, es werden drei Durchgänge benötigt. Diese sind aber schnell zu erreichen. Die Steuerung war gut, es gab nicht so viele Ecken, wo man hängen bleiben konnte. Bei der Übersetzung gab es nur sehr wenige Beanstandungen. Leider kann man die Dialoge nicht skippen und es gibt nur einen Speicherstand zum Überschreiben.

Allgemein bin ich zufrieden – es werden Themen angesprochen, die zum Nachdenken anregen, auch wenn man sich anfangs sträubt, sich mit dem Verlust auseinanderzusetzen. Es wird viel mit Personifizierung und Symbolik gearbeitet.

Ich empfehle, das Spiel für einen schmalen Taler mitzunehmen. Es kann zwar mit dem Vorgänger nicht mithalten, stellt aber eine interessante Alternative dar.

A nice story style game with a good narrative and interesting visuals. It's fairly short but I think it's worth it. The only complaint I have is that it's very possible to soft lock your game at one point due to the single file save system and that you can permanently lock yourself out of one achievement if you don't play the game in the right order. Otherwise a solid game.

Es un juego clásico, corto y wonito.

El mayor problema para sacar el good ending es la primer área (si lo vas a jugar y quieres ese final, solo te diré que busques un lazo rojo, sin eso no te sale).

Igual y he visto que a algunos les molestan los juegos en que tenes que interacctuar con cosas random todo el rato, pero si no eres de esos, te lo recomiendo.

Red Bow имеет не плохой сюжет и много концовок. Пройти ее можно за пол часа. Для казуального хоррора хорошая, но покупать надо при огромной скидке. До witch housе она не дотягивает, на одно прохождение для коллекции подойдет.
