A Chinese point & click adventure (originally for mobile) in which you rescue your future wife Moqi. The story is often grinny, but the Chinese funeral culture is shown well. It has moon logic, but also a hint system with very direct solutions.

Paper Bride is an escape room styled point&click puzzle game that tells an interesting story inspired from Chinese folklore. I did like the story enough that i was able to play through the game without getting bored but i had some issues with the gameplay. It's really hard to figure out what the game expects you to do. I constantly felt lost and had to rely heavily on the hint system just to figure out what i should do next. Also i really would've preferred the hints to actually give you hints rather than the entire solution. While the games dialogues are fully translated to English, most of the puzzles rely on Chinese characters. In turn, this overly complicates said puzzles for non Chinese speakers especially because the answers and puzzles don't share the same font. Despite these issues i believe Paper Bride has a strong foundation that hopefully improve its gameplay aspect in the sequels. As for this game alone, because of said issues, i can only recommend it in a bundle or on a heavy discount.
