Evaluation
The developer posted an official farewell message on January 11, 2025, announcing that the game would be removed from Steam on March 17, 2025. The post, written in character as the villa's "housekeeper," confirmed that the story of "Misty Summer" would conclude upon removal, and offered a final 60% discount on all DLC from January 15–29, 2025. The store data confirms the game is no longer purchasable — no purchase options are available — consistent with the announced delisting date having passed.
The developer also noted in that farewell post that the team plans to create new games in the future, but made no commitment to restore or re-release this title. The game's content development concluded well before delisting: three character DLC packs all shipped in August–September 2020, a complete season bundle was announced in September 2020, and no new content was released after October 2020.

About this game
1, About the story
The Vigilant Villa is a suspenseful deduction game inspired by the classic “Stormy Hill” story model (a certain type in locked room mysteries). For seven days, ten guests are accidentally trapped in a hilltop villa, completely cut off from the outside world. A quirky villa with tulips in full bloom, an enthralling hymn ringing out at midnight......Right from the first suicide case, all guests are animals caught in an unseen snare.
These mysterious guests, who seem totally unacquainted in the first place, gradually reveal their intricate and secretive relationships; they also become so close to the obscure truth-- a truth related with their loved ones and rivals, their lies and betrayal-- who’ll be the blessed one at last then?
The gamer will play as a lesser-known novelist writing under a pseudonym-Folmes, a frantic fan of Sherlock Holmes. This time, Folmes is definitely offered a key role to uncover the dusty past and the real killer behind.

We are a group of enthusiasts of suspense stories, also producers behind The Vigilant Villa.
Novels by Agatha Christine, Conan Doyle, Edgar Allan Poe and Ellery Queen always strike a strong chord with us; we lose ourselves in those enchanting worlds they created, imagining us as those protagonists--we are truly on the same journey of discovery with them.
We have to say inspirations gained from classic novels have given birth to The Vigilant Villa -the game itself is not only a tribute to classics, but also, let’s say, an innovative mystery that embraces diverse clues, story lines and ends.
