Game Overview
A murdered actress leaves more than a scandal behind: her reflection, Iris, remains trapped in a reality that suddenly has no original to imitate. Still Joking turns that unsettling idea into an anime-styled narrative adventure where mirror images live beside, but never quite like, the people they echo. The tone moves between surreal humor, grief, mystery, and existential unease as Iris is pushed beyond the routines that once defined her entire existence. Her journey through a strange void asks a deceptively simple question: who are you when the person you were made to copy is gone?
Play unfolds through visual-novel conversations, interactive-fiction decisions, and light adventure-style investigation. Iris speaks with a varied cast of reflections, follows leads surrounding the actress’s murder, and makes choices that influence both her identity and the relationships around her. The mystery is not built around identifying the killer from scratch; the real tension comes from understanding motive, hidden histories, and the consequences that ripple through the mirror world. Dialogue is the main tool, with decisions carrying emotional weight rather than serving as filler between scenes, while Iris’s inner voice adds another layer to the constant questioning of what is real, inherited, or freely chosen.
Its strongest hook is the reflection-world premise, which makes familiar human behavior feel eerie once viewed from the other side of the glass. Characters are shaped by nuanced relationship systems rather than simple approval meters, giving conversations room for friction, intimacy, mistrust, and unexpected alliances. The story’s mix of dark detective fiction and philosophical character drama recalls the moodier side of choice-driven visual novels, though its premise is far stranger than most. Still Joking suits players who value writing, branching decisions, and unconventional mysteries over action, especially fans of anime narratives that are willing to sit with uncomfortable questions instead of rushing to tidy answers.
