Evaluation
Black Sheep launched on December 16, 2022, following a demo released in February 2022 and a release date announcement in November 2022. In the week immediately following launch, the developer (完蛋了的国王 / "Ruined King Studio") pushed a series of bug fix and stability patches — on December 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, and 23 — addressing flow-breaking bugs, save system issues, and display errors across the game's chapters. These are all post-launch polish patches rather than new content additions. The last developer communication on record is the bug fix update from December 23, 2022. There have been no news posts, announcements, or content updates since that date. The store description describes the game as a five-chapter story-driven adventure with a defined structure and no mention of planned DLC, expansions, or future updates. There is no DLC listed on the store. The game shows every sign of having launched as a self-contained, finished product, with the post-launch activity limited entirely to fixing day-one issues. No further content has been announced or hinted at, and the developer has been silent since December 23, 2022.

About this game
Sometime at the end of the last century near the withered town of Lingyi, dusk fell upon the electric gates of the Junior High. A passionate girl who could never become a black sheep opened her hands and embraced the earth.
Her dear friend Li Xiangfan, someone who once knew everything, had not a single word to say.
""Hush, don't speak of the black sheep, its instinct is to live amongst the flock."。"
· Moderate elements of psychological horror, integrated into urban legends within a school setting.
· Collect information left amongst the ruins and uncover the truth behind the year's events.
· Beware of monsters born out of malice, and discover their true identities.
· The game consists of five chapters, with each chapter corresponding to a series of events that happened in the past year, with the player acts as a bystander in these events. As you watch on from the sidelines, how you choose to save the black sheep is up to you.
· This is a story-driven adventure game, where even things that seem simple at first may be difficult to pin down... Players must search for the truth by gathering opinions, changing their perspective, and assuming different identities until the butcher in the flock is found.
