Evaluation

Gregory Horror Show: Soul of Roses entered Steam Early Access on November 15, 2024, with developer Unframe explicitly stating the game is unfinished and that they are working toward a full 1.0 release based on player feedback. On November 22, 2024, the developer published a roadmap promising a major content update within approximately six months and further updates toward the full version within a year of the Early Access launch. On February 7, 2025, the developer shipped the local co-op update (adding a new playable character, James) and confirmed in that same post that work on a major update with additional storylines was ongoing. That February 7, 2025 post is the last communication from the developer of any kind. The six-month window for the promised major update (approximately May 2025) and the one-year window for the full version (approximately November 2025) have both passed as of October 1, 2026 — with no announcements, patch notes, or developer posts to account for the delay. The promised story content has not shipped, and there has been no explanation from the developer about the status of the project.
Evidence
Local co-op mode with new character James released. Developer confirmed active work on a major update with additional storylines is ongoing. This is the last developer communication on record.

About this game

Soul of Roses is a 2D rogue light action game.
Absorb the abilities of your enemies, fight, die, revive, and repeat as you progress through the story.

What is Gregory House?

It is a hotel in another dimension where souls who have not been satisfied in the real world arrive.
The inhabitants of this world all release their desires and live their lives as they please.
At Gregory House, “strength of thought” is everything.
Even if your body perishes, you can reject death as long as your heart is not broken.
It is the same for the other residents.
Therefore, it is safe to beat up the residents.

The Battle to Regain Memory.

Gregory House is in trouble when it is attacked by runaway zombies.
You awoke as one of the zombies, unable to remember even your own name.
Gregory, the caretaker of Gregory House, offers you a contract.
If you will restore peace to Gregory House, I will help you regain your memory.
Your battle to restore peace to Gregory House and to regain your own memories begins.

Transform with the Soul Taker!

Take the souls of your enemies with the Soul Taker, a mysterious device embedded in your hand.
