Estou apaixonada por Chris, gostei dos finais! Eu realmente gostei da história também. É interessante. Minha primeira morte foi por um lodo na geladeira, meu Deus.

(+2)

This is such a good game, I love the characters a whole lot; especially Chris and Sky!!

Solving the mystery was heartbreaking, I honestly feel so bad about Chris T_T the portrayal of depression and how bad it can get was really well done.

I honestly would love to see more about these characters in a new game or epilogue or, really, any kind of new content that includes them!! <3

I really loved the art as well; especially the characters' expressions!

Awesome job!! 

(+2)

I really Love this game!!

I wouldn't mind seeing an  interpretation of what happened after this game!!

i would literally spend days playing all the games you publish if you make this into a game series

Also i got the forever haunted ending (I love ghost boys <3)

(+1)

how do i date the one with the scouter 😍😍😍

I’m…haunted by this lololol

(3 edits) (+2)

I love this to bits, I went in expecting to only like Chris and now I'm in love with the 3 of them, though I have to ask, is there a clearer walkthrough? the main one leaves me confused? like, is there a different selection at the end to get the poly ending, or do I just have to romance all 3 and then select to stay with Chris?

I might be reading too much into it, while that did get me the poly ending, when you select to stay with Chris, the reactions from Alistair and Sky, seemed slightly upset at the choice, the reaction almost felt like they felt upset or in some way bothered by it, though the ending shows that it works out, it left me wondering if I'd missed something, because I hate the thought I could have upset them both, especially Sky 😭 

I left it vague and up to interpretation, so it’s up to you! I’m sure in the poly route, even if they were mad, they couldn’t stay mad at the MC for long.

(+1)

I need help! I don't know what to do when I get to act 2, I've tried tapping the screen in all different places but nothing happens 

(+2)

huh, never heard of that bug before. Got any more info? See any characters or can you hover your mouse over things on your computer? It should react.

I'm using a phone, and I see Alistair, Sky and Chris. It's the second chapter, I can look side to side but that's all it's allowing me to do.

Oh nother thing, I just saw the screenshots at the top of this page, I'm by the second screen shot for better reference

(+1)

Yeah, I’m sorry, but I think my game only works well on PC. Id have to look into mobile access and I don’t think I’ll do that anytime soon :(

Okay no problem! Then do you have any tips on how to get it on PC along with other visual novels and dating sims? Cuz I'm struggling with that, only manage with steam :'>

(+3)

omg i lovvvveee this and especially chris... lame guys r so cute

(+2)

yall i couldnt find a wiki page so i made one?? PolterKiss Wiki | Fandom uhhhh if there is one made before this please tell me i need a guide on the endings 😭

(+1)

Oooo neat. No, you are definitely the first to do so as far as I know.

(+3)

SKY IS SO CUTE PMDDWHIDOWIDHINFWIHWHFIIH

Rare Sky fan let’s gooooo 🫶

(3 edits) (+3)

This game is so cool. The art is amazing, I really love the changes in the characters expressions. It was such a nice detail to notice. Especially with Chris reacting to things, the way his eyes changed.

The characters are all so different to each other, I really liked their character designs and how it went with their personalities. Sky is bright and nerdy, I loved the amount of ghost clothing they were wearing, the "I bust ghosts" hat was so funny. They are such a sweet character. Alister very much was the typical cocky landlord with posh clothing and Chris was more dark, his tone and appearence showing how his mind is and life was. The amount of choices this game has is just amazing, how they effect everything. From the character you play as, to their relationships with the characters, how they help you, to finding out information and the way the story goes and ends. The potential for romance and friendship was really cool. 

This game can have some really sweet moments, but it is also mainly very dark, it being about a apartment haunted by a ghost and all. Look at the trigger warnings as it mentions some sensitive and possibly triggering subjects. 

I really like this game, the story was so cool, and the ending I got (Ghostly triad) was surprisingly sweet for what the game's about :)

(+3)

This game is awesome! I really like how the story went and the variety of the characters' personality.

(+3)

Amazing game! Though, it needs a bit of proofreading. Near the beginning of the game there's a line that says, " I think you're spirit box might help me with this, Sky."

Those sorts of things are really the only problems with this game. Loved playing it regardless!

Lol I knowwww my typos are annoying. I really need a proofreader at some point. Thanks for letting me know!

(+3)

i love that incel ghost ohmygod

(+1)

I loved it omg, I tried to get all of the endings but i stopped half way BUT THIS IS ABSULOTE CINEMA. I enjoyed it sooo bad, the story makes it more enjoyable. 10/10!!!

(1 edit) (+2)

 I played this months ago, and got a sweet ending. I was happy with it, but then I saw the ending walkthrough to click on and then I decided maybe I should play it again because why not?? And I got an even BETTER ending! I'm not a completionist enough to get the sad endings (sorry!), but I love both the endings I got.~

I want to see more of these lovable losers characters! <3

(+1)

This game match my freak so bad. 10/10

(1 edit) (+1)

Oh shjt I didnt know we can romance all three of them, guess have to play again <3

(+1)

AAA i lOOOVEEDDD thiss! It was so good, and all the three characters have their own charm which i lovee! I'm so glad to have stumbled across this game, thank you for your hard workkkk <333 mwah

(+1)

this vn made me feel both fascinated and overwhelmed with sadness, and it resonated with me. Most works can't achieve this. Thank you for creating this game. It's really great!!!!!

I have played so many VNs and I would easily put this in my top 10.

This game was so fun and so well crafted. My turn around time for this fan art was less than a day. The writing fun, cute and handled themes of severe depression very well. The whole game was engaging, had good comedic moments, while balancing its darker themes. It was funny without treating the entire game like a joke. 

I played this while in a very tough transitional period in my own career so it was extremely relatable, it was weird and cathartic to find it when I did.

My only complaint is that I now have an attachment to an incel ghost. Great work!

(+2)

Oh my goodness, your art style with Chris is so fitting! Too beautiful, too good for the doomer trash ghost.

Thanks for letting me know, it’s always nice when my art reaches the right people.

Thank you again for making something so impactful and fun. :')

(+2)

I got forever haunted!!! AAAAA I love Chris and his stupid face ;___; This was so fun and cute, fantastic job! Now I just need more Chris content :')

(+1)

I LOCE THIS GMAE SO MUCH I LOVE CHRIS !!!! 

okay wait so im a little confused.. in the like the forever haunted ending, is he like GONE GONE? like are we no longer able to see, feel, or hear him? like do we only sense his presence? or is he like dead and well?

(+1)

I think he’s still around. He’s supposed be tethered to you now in that ending I believe.

(+2)

After 5 hours of playing and replaying, PolterKisst left me with bittersweet childhood nostalgia, and I can honestly say I truly enjoyed every minute of it. I didn't even realize how quickly time flew by!

I initially discovered one of your other games, Chilling Devotion, through a Discord link, and then I stumbled upon this one.

The art style, as well as the game mechanics, reminded me fondly of the Danganronpa and Ace Attorney series. Alistair’s pointing sprite was a dead giveaway :'D

When it comes to the background music, PolterKisst was spot-on. It complemented the game's various scenarios beautifully.

Story- and character-wise, I have nothing but praise to offer. What first drew me in was Chris’s dejected stare on the game’s front page—it hit a weak spot for me. After playing through the story, I found myself relating even more to his situation, having been stuck in a rut several times myself. It was genuinely comforting to be able to help Chris and see his development unfold.

The first ending I got was “You got Eaten by Slime” (shockers), followed by “Forever Haunted.”

Your comment made me smile. Thank you for your kind words. (Those were totally my gameplay inspirations haha dead giveaway is right)

(2 edits) (+1)

I am just discovering this game alongside Chilling devotion and omggg, you´re so talented. I just love this game just as much, every character is so unique and fun and I adored Chris, I was left wanting to see more of him and the whole gang again! 



(+2)

im stuck on the computer password

(3 edits) (+1)(-1)

spoilers!












befriend or romance Chris and ask him(in the bedroom scene)

Я в восторге от этой новеллы. Даже половину не прошла, рыдаю (от смеха) над каждым выбором. Вы лучшие!!!!!!

Прошла. В ещё большем восторге, как у нас говорят, "целую руки автору, что это написал". Спасибо за то, что вы сделали!!!

(+1)

Как можно выбрать кого-то одного? Вот и я думаю, что никак!

(+1)

Почему бы не выбрать их все сразу? 👀

I can't play this game on my Android phone 😭😭😭

Just PC sorry 🙏

I LOVE THIS GAME. I NEED FANFICTION OF CHRIS NOWWWWWWW!!!!!

I noticed you can't choose your gender.
And it's specified as male based on what the kid says.
Just a note.

Alistar is growing on me. lol

And the little creepy fan is kinda cute.
Creepy, but cute.

I wonder what country this is in...
Isn't it common to -not- have a floor 13?
Cuz of superstition and all that.
In america at least, I think.
Tho I can't say I've checked, so I could be wrong.

I like how different the two human guys are (which I presume are LI's?)
The fact that they are so opposite allows different people to find one they like, regardless what type they like. ^_^

Oh, I like the ghost! ^_^

AND he looks good too. ^_^
Not the best dresser, might need a good bath, but otherwise...

I don't get why the mc won't even try to ask the ghost to let the others leave in exchange for talking tho.
I mean... I assume normal people would try to save them.
(Personally I just want to talk to it in privacy so I won't have to watch my words. lol)

I sincerely hope the ghost is taking the piss about the true loves kiss thing tho. Cuz that's just... sucky on so many levels.

(Shit writing, horrible for the one who falls in love with it only to loose it, take your pick.)

Not putting it past the ghost to be messing with you tho. lol

Fyi: The kiss scene with 'enthusiastic' zooms in on the wrong guy. Might wanna fix that.

Oh, the Spectrocatcher 3000!! 😂😂😂

I'm sad your options are just sympathize or not care.
I'd rather empathize. (Not really caring, but you get it kinda thing.)

New gameplan!
I keep the ghost and take him home with me! ^_^
....why isn't that a choice...? *pouts*

I really, REALLY like him. ❤️

Might wanna go over the writing a bit.
"EAT a cigarette" might be just his sarcastic way of speaking, but it isn't the first weird grammar I've seen.

I can't stress enough how much I like him! ❤️❤️❤️

Interesting.... It's not a pure visual novel.
But the bit where you discover things aren't as annoying as these things tend to be either.
And it seems to interveawe with the story better than most these point-and-click find-the-hidden-stuff usually do.

I will LAUGH if it turns out his unfinished business is a hatemail he didn't send. xD

This game is actually pretty deep.
And on some things I totally get him.
(I'm more of an optimistic nihilist who think you can do anything you set your mind to do, but I still get it.)

I think Chris would be someone I'd love to sit at a rooftop and drink and smoke with while discussing philosophy and life.
He's a pretty interesting guy.

(That my bias tho. I somehow doubt the average person will agree with me on this.)

I don't really understand why there is no choice to just... bring him with you home. o_O
For the 'final choice' I mean.

The ending was...confusing?
(I got the F.H. ending. To avoid spoilers.)

I was hoping there was a way I could be with my sweet darling....

Non of the endings seemed particularly happy tho.
More like...some less bad than the others, and one confusing one that may or may not have been happy-ish, but I didn't fully understand what was going on?

Regardless...

-

Overall this story really draws you in and makes you invested in the hot ghost guy, very quickly. ^_^

(Or pity him if you're that kind of person I guess. Probably. Pity is beyond my skills.)

The artwork is pretty good, and the storytelling captivating.

The little find-the-clues game was...not bad at all.
(And I usually hate that kind of stuff.)
And it tied well into the story.

The cute little fridge-slime was funny. lol
I'm sad we never got the story behind it. I'm kinda curious. 😂

I wish there was a choice to just bring him home with you and have a nice ghost romance tho.

That's be the cherry on top of this pretty cool cake. ^_^

Definitively recommending this game.

Appreciate the detail in your comment, I can see the timeline of you playing my game lol. Oop, definetly some bugs and typos in there. Not sure when I’ll have time to fix. But I’m aware. Some of your theories are correct, but i won’t say which ones haha

(+2)

Any chance there will be a happier romance ending one day? ^_^

(Seriously. I love the ghost! I'd totally steal the...thing.... and take it home! So I could be with him forever and ever and ever! ^_^ )

(+1)

Omg, I loved this game! Especially the poly ending, it was so cute <3 Def a 10/10

(+2)

AHHH WHY DIDNT I DISCOVER THIS SOONER??? SUCH A GREATGAMEE I HAD TO PLAY THIS MORE TO GET ALL OF THE ENDINGS!! srtill trying to figurenout what choices make what lol... MY FIRST ENDING IS THE GHOSTLY TRIAD LOLOL!! SO FAR I GOT 6 ENDINGS!! im trying to get an ending where its Alister's solo love route but i got Power Couple ending instead :(( isnt there any other ending abt it? I hope we'll get ending;s guide :33 LOVE CHRIS OMG HE REMINDS ME OF ISAAC FOSTER LIKE PSYCHOLOGICALLY DISTURBING AND A HOT JERKHEADD

(+1)

I GOT TO THIS GAME BC I FOUND CHILLING DEVOTION AND WANTED MORE OF UR CREATIONS!!! LONG HAIRED MEN OMFGGGG 

(+1)

I think power couple is Alistair’s solo love ending 🤔 Unfortunately not. I ran out of time making variations/details of the endings since i decided to allow for poly endings 💀 but something to think about for the future.

Lol I fear I have a type and it’s long haired fellas 💀

(+1)

I like how fleshed out and developed this game is?? There's so many options and routes to take from and it's just super cool!

This is probably the second time I ever leave a comment on someone's game like this but - the characters, story, and interactions really wowed me to no end. Great job!

Aww thanks for letting me know how much you liked it! ^^

(+2)

I can´t help but fall in love with the stinky ghost... I emphathise with all of the plot and I need more content about him!! I kind of wish there was some +18 stuff?? I hope that in the future you could make some epilogues or like an extension dlc ^^

Haha yes, I mentioned it in another reply, but I’d love to update the game with all of that later ^^ I want to see more of the gang too!

(+1)

AAAH tysm, i will be waiting patiently!!

(+1)

I would die for more content!! I'll wait patientky :')

(+3)

I finished this game at ending two, I've never felt this depressed about a video game before. Pay for my therapy
(+1)

Omg, what ending is that? Have you tried the “paranormal polyamory” ending? That might heal you ^^;

(+1)

I LOVED THE GAME!11, Especially the wonderful Chris, I can't stop thinking about him. :3 The other characters are also very cool, Sky seemed very cute to me and I loved Allistar's personality. Anyway, this game is beautiful, I'm in a difficult situation for me and this game makes me forget about it. I hope this game becomes more famous!11! :DDD Sorry if it's a little badly written, right now I'm using the translator hehe.

Thanks for your kind words! I’m glad the game was fun for you. Haha lots of people don’t appreciate Alistair’s ‘personality’. ^^

(+1)

Man, I have so much to say about this game, but I'll just list some of my opinions about it

1 I really liked the characters designs and personalities

2 If you choose to befriend or romance one of the characters, you can genuinely feel the chemistry, making the relationship with them feel authentic and not plain at all (something not every visual novel manages to achieve)

 3 It was so much fun having so many endings (16!!crazy)

4 This isn’t just about this game in particular, but your projects in general. Chilling Devotion and Polterkisst are absolute masterpieces. I can’t wait to play CRUSH and see what other amazing games you release in the future. Thank you for making  such creatives games

Wow 🥹 This means a lot to me! Thanks for taking the time writing this out. Hope I can keep making good stuff

(+1)

Haiii I played the game again, like... ten times.

and I need to know what the MBTI of each of the characters is? (⁠◕⁠દ⁠◕⁠)

(+1)

Hmm, had to give it some thought but here it is: Sky-ENFP Alistair-ENTJ Chris-ENTP.

Sad no one was really introverted :( but seems accurate to me.

(+3)

im..?? In?? Love????with?? Chris???tian???? Idk chat i cant get over how sad this game made me feel 

hey so i need more chris content idk

LOVED THE GAME BTW

(+2)

Chat…🤖

Aww your ghost whisperer is so cute. And chris with the hair up 😭👏

(+1)

hejshwjwhekd thank you i swear hes so 💔🩷 


sorry for asking btw but I wonder if you’ll make any future content for this game? (No pressure its up to you!) Your game is like REALLY good, the plot, gameplay, significant choices are so well played in your gamee 😭🩷 ive only done chris’ route haha and i just gotta say it absolutely broke me man that’s one hell of a story T__T

(+1)

I’m so glad you liked it ^^ I appreciate the passion. I’ll probably come around and polish up some things as well as add epilogues to some of the endings. I said it somewhere, but I did want to have some 18+ optional stuff and that would prob be in the epilogue.

BUT I’ll be working on my other game Chilling Devotion before that. Lots of stuff to look forward too. I’ll WILL be making some Valentine’s Day art of the gang tho. Prob post it on my socials soon ^^

Omg…the stinky guy in all his angsty glory…This is so good 😭

i love him so much 😭

AND THANK YOU!!
