The Coffin of Andy and Leyley, let's call it a "gem" of a game.

Critically aclaimed by... ugh... Gamers... Allah forgive me for uttering the word. By being one of the best rated games on steam.

However the game has conflicted many, many, people on how they should feel about it. And rightly so.

The game's supposed to be a horror game, but rather than confront the game with scary monsters and/or environments, you are greeted with a crap-sack world and the main characters of our story; a pair of siblings stuck in an apartment together.

They are the monsters of this story btw :)

The story starts quite innocent enough, but as you play you delve into the pairs deeply toxic, manipulative and self-dependent relationship as they go on their little "misadventures". Through flashbacks you also discover their (Andy's) deeply traumatic and horrible past.

You go on doing a little murder, some cannibalism and even satanic rituals. (Scratching the surface here.) But when it comes to taboo, the developer doesn't pull any punches.

Story spoiler and the taboo of the game. Including why the game got the notoriety it's got.

One of the available endings shows a vision of a future that the two will engage in incest. The game is yet to be finished, but Andy is groping Ashley's butt before you even get the chance to choose the ending you want. ๐Ÿ’€

That's the part that got the game that is also most focused on during discussions. And one that shaped the fandom...

Oof. ๐Ÿ’€๐Ÿ’€๐Ÿ’€๐Ÿ’€๐Ÿ’€๐Ÿ’€

Finishing episode two I was left flabbergasted, disgusted, full of hatred for the two, but I also came back from the game weirdly... amused? This game also helped me reflect on myself and my own rather disgusting past, guess that's what thinking about the worst possible things a person can do can make you think and reflect on youself. Even if you are not or were not as bad as the characters depicted.

I mean despite all of this shit, I'm invested in their little story and can't wait for more. (Yes, yes. Treat brain.)

The writing is really fucking good, they do be actin' like siblings ngl, and their toxic relationship is also reminiscing of a toxic relationship I myself have been in. Maybe that's why the game clicked with me...

Soooo, if you're not sensitive on the issues mentioned before hand. Go give the game a try or watch it on Youtube. You will be yearning for them to die :)

10/10, would recommend. Very interesting characters, somewhat because they're fucked in the head.
