Evaluation

Pact Between Us launched on July 25, 2025 as a complete FMV (full-motion video) life simulation game. A post-launch patch on August 5, 2025 added quality-of-life features (fast-mode replay and video skipping) and renamed a store section, but introduced no new story content. No DLC has been listed, no expansion or sequel content for this specific title has been announced, and the developer has made no statements indicating further content is planned for the game itself. The developer, MYSTERY CROWN, has remained active as a studio throughout 2025 and into 2026, releasing several other games (Mourningwood Lodge, Back3, Mourningwood Lodge 2, The Invisible Us, and Worthy or Not?). A February 2026 post reflects on the studio's ongoing survival strategy. However, all of this activity is unrelated to Pact Between Us — none of these releases or announcements involve additional content for this title. The game shipped as a self-contained narrative product with a defined story and endings, consistent with the FMV genre. There is no roadmap, season pass, or announced follow-up content for Pact Between Us specifically. The game can be considered content-complete as of its launch date.

About this game

《Pact between us》is a life-simulation game featuring real actors.

​​Synopsis:​​
The story is heartwarming, focusing on a pair of siblings who suddenly lose their parents and grow up relying only on each other. After their parents' death, the older brother discovers he was adopted and has no blood relation to his younger sister. Despite this revelation, he chooses to raise her nonetheless.

​​Addressing Controversy:​​
It's unexpected that such a simple game would be labeled with the "LTP" tag and escalate into widespread online harassment. It's unclear who actually played the game before drawing these conclusions. ​​Our entire content promotes positive values​​, has undergone the platform's strict review process, and contains ​​absolutely no elements that guide or imply negative values for minors​​.

A child actor portrays the sister during her childhood stage, participating in various lessons and social practice activities.

As time progresses within the game and the sister grows up, she is portrayed by an adult actor.

Regarding the deliberate distortions and selective interpretations of what I referred to as an "emotional ending": This refers to the point in the game, ​​after the sister turns 18​​, where the brother chooses whether to reveal the truth of his origins. The "ending" then deals with ​​how the sister processes and views her relationship with this brother, with whom she has shared a life of mutual dependence since childhood, despite the lack of blood ties.​​

​​Legal Warning to Harassers:​​
Furthermore, this is a warning to certain cyberbullies: ​​Your actions in obtaining personal phone information through illicit channels to conduct harassment have been reported to the police and a case has been officially filed 30 minutes ago.​​ Consider the consequences.

​​Final Statement:​​
​​Only those who have actually seen the content labeled as "LTP" have the standing to comment on / report / criticize it.​​ Conversely, ​​any statements made without seeing it are considered slanderous accusations.​​

​​Game Feature Descriptions:​​

  • ​​[Study]​​

    • The protagonist (player as the brother) can arrange for the sister to take various lessons.

    • Lessons primarily increase different attributes.

    • Studying consumes ​​in-game currency​​.

  • ​​[Social Practice]​​

    • The protagonist can arrange for the sister to participate in various social practice activities.

    • This will increase certain attributes and ​​earn in-game currency​​.

    • However, it ​​generates significantly more fatigue​​.

  • ​​[Rest]​​

    • The protagonist can arrange for the sister to rest at home or go on outings/trips.

    • This ​​reduces the sister's fatigue level​​ and may even ​​increase Affection Points​​.

    • ​​Affection Points​​ are a prerequisite for unlocking the best emotional ending.

  • ​​[Wardrobe]​​

    • The protagonist can choose different outfits for the sister to wear.

    • Changing clothes affects the sister's ​​mood/state​​ while at home, varying depending on the outfit worn.
