Evaluation
The night of fire stealing is a free-to-play RPG Maker JRPG that launched on August 15, 2018. The developer released its only DLC — a story chapter titled "查拉图斯特拉的故事" — on September 28, 2018, alongside an official English translation. A handful of bug fix patches followed in late September 2018 to address issues in the English release. After that, developer activity on this game effectively concluded. On August 4, 2021, the developer announced the release of a sequel, The night of fire stealing 2 (a separate product on Steam), confirming that the original game's story and development had wrapped up. The store description itself notes this was the developer's first game, made entirely by one person, and describes it as a self-contained 8–10 hour experience. All released DLC is shipped, no future content has been announced, and the sequel announcement signals the developer moved on from this title. The game is complete as of September 28, 2018.

About this game
The night of fire stealing is a retro wind JRPG game made by RPGmaker MV. The game is set in China during 1920. You play as Zhou Shuren, who adventures in Shanghai with two girl administrators, Friedrich and Karl, while exploring an unknown world full of mythological and philosophical elements. But when the gods of the humans and the gods of the myths meet, what kind of spiraling paradox will be made?

"The night of fire stealing" is the first game I made. I tried to fuse my interest in myth and philosophy while building a world of paradoxes.
Because it's my first time making one, all the work for the game is completed by me. There are some shortcomings with it, such as possible unknown bugs.
The game strategy is attached to the game directory if needed. The game is also about 8-10 hours.
Plus, this is an all ages game!
