Whispering Willows

Whispering Willows is a 2D horror puzzle game where you play as Elena Elkhorn, a little girl who searches for her missing father in an abandoned mansion. Elena has a special power that allows her to travel in spirit form, which helps her in solving puzzles and interacting with ghosts. For a horror game, I wouldn't exactly call this game scary, in fact, it's kinda peaceful, with few scary parts and more friendly interactions with the ghosts, some even help you and have funny dialogues. WW has unique cartoon-like character models and hand-drawn cutscenes. If you want a short and light horror experience, give WW a try.

It's a bit slow and I find the map not easy to remember for some reason. Kinda forgettable all in all.

Was a bit of sad story but still a lovely game. The puzzles are challenging but not to hard

Came across this game as a GOG special, Halloween 2024, and am finally getting around to completing the main story, of which I've got to say that it's a delightfully atmospheric and superbly illustrated game with just the sort of hauntingly mysterious tale that I enjoy and which brilliantly unfolds as one progresses. Not an action game by any stretch, but plenty of puzzles that are within reach of a broad age group, not one for the young ones however, I'm afraid. Though it may be 10 years old now, it's definitely worth visiting, I myself intend on a second playthrough as I'm SURE there were side quests I've missed, and I do so love ghosts and spooky things :D

I hope this game will have Japanese Language support.
