Overview

The Locket is a 2D dating sim for players who want a darker, character-driven supernatural drama with a female lead. The tone is tense and morally uneasy rather than lighthearted.

Story

Mabel, still mourning her grandmother, discovers a silver locket that begins taking vitality and features from the women around her and giving them to Mabel. The changes are small at first, but as they grow harder to hide, Mabel must decide whether to resist the locket's pull or give in to the power it offers, even as the people around her pay the price.

Gameplay

Players guide Mabel through a single self-contained episode told across several acts, choosing how she responds to the locket's growing influence at key branching points. Conversations with coworkers build affection or suspicion depending on Mabel's choices, shaping how far her transformation goes and how those around her react to it.

Features

  • Branching choices that track affection and steer Mabel's descent
  • Multiple stages of visual transformation reflecting her growing power
  • Original art with dedicated CG scenes and character sprites for the office cast
  • Full voice-free soundtrack with original music and UI sound design

Installation
