We Belong Dead

robot noise made me jump. love it

mad scientist doomed yuri 10/10

try 2 get the s3Xy !! ending

Good short VN with a few different endings. Not a cheerful story, obviously. I like the protagonist, she is well-written. The VHS filter is a bit hit or miss, experiment with and without it. In the end, I preferred without it. If you have one hour to spare and are in the mood for toxic yuri, this is a good use of your time.

delightfully unsettling story and writing with a lot to think about as you play. despite the size, each character is pretty fleshed out. it's great. each route is fairly short, so getting through them all is easy and not that demanding of your time or anything. 12/10 frankenyuri

We Belong Dead is a very strange visual novel, and I think that is exactly what made me want to keep going. I am following a mad scientist who is completely determined to bring her dead lover back, even though the person she loves has become a ghost who still haunts the living. The whole thing has a really dark romantic setup, with horror, science fiction and supernatural ideas all mixed together. It is also deliberately toxic and obsessive, so this is definitely not trying to be a normal cute romance story. The game was originally made for the Spooktober 2025 visual novel jam and was later released for free on Steam. The relationship between the two main characters is easily the part I find most interesting. I am not watching a normal love story where everything is meant to be healthy and comfortable. There is a constant feeling that the scientist is willing to go far too far because she cannot accept losing someone she loves. That gives the story a much darker edge, and I like that the game actually commits to the uncomfortable side of its idea instead of trying to make everything pleasant. The supernatural relationship also gives the dialogue a nice sense of tension because I never completely know where things are going to end up. The presentation works really well for this sort of story. The character art, darker backgrounds and supernatural elements give it a strong horror visual novel feeling without needing huge amounts of animation. There are nearly 60 CGs, and I think that helps the important story moments stand out. The game also has six different endings, so there is enough reason for me to go back and make different choices after finishing one route. I like that the extra endings are actually tied to the strange relationship and the decisions around bringing someone back rather than just being minor changes to the final scene. The main weakness for me is that it is still a very small visual novel. The central idea is strong, but there is only so much room for the characters and world to develop before I reach the end. Some parts feel more like short bursts of horror and relationship drama than a fully developed story, and I sometimes wanted more time with the characters before an important moment happened. The content is also very specific, with obsessive relationships, blood, mild gore, medical themes and body horror all being part of the experience. I actually like that the game is honest about what it is, but it definitely makes it something I would only play when I am in the right mood. I also think the story works better because it does not take itself too seriously all the time. There are darker scenes, but the writing can still have a strange sense of humour that stops the whole thing from becoming miserable. I like that balance because a story about trying to resurrect a dead lover could easily become overly dramatic. Here it feels more like a deliberately messy horror romance where things are allowed to become uncomfortable, weird and occasionally funny. The free price also helps because I can experience the whole story without having to spend anything. There is not really much traditional gameplay here, so I am judging it almost entirely on the writing, choices, characters and presentation. That is fine with me because the game knows exactly what it is. I am not expecting combat or exploration to suddenly appear. I am here to see how the relationship develops, make different choices and find the endings. The fact that it includes Steam achievements and cloud support is useful, but the six endings are the thing that actually gives me a reason to replay it. Overall, We Belong Dead is a short but memorable visual novel that takes a very specific idea and actually commits to it. I like the obsessive romance, supernatural horror, unusual characters and darker tone, and the six endings give the story a bit more replay value than its short length would normally provide. It definitely could have benefited from being longer and giving the characters more room to develop, but I would rather have a short game with a clear identity than a longer one that waters the idea down. For me, it is a weird little horror romance that knows exactly what it wants to be, and that makes it much easier to appreciate. Rating: 7/10

I really enjoyed the game! I've played a lot of visual novels and the writing in this one is stellar. You can tell it was written by someone who really knows how to write. I like the plot and the questions it brings up, and I enjoyed that despite the protagonist being obsessive, her character is still complex and likeable and doesn't just fall into the "yandere stereotype". It was also interesting to control the obsessive character, rather than being the obsession, as it tends to be in vns. I think this game is definitely worth a try! I appreciate the ending variety and the art style is very nice too!
