LiEat is now probably one of my favorite games. From the beautiful pixel art to the emotional storytelling, it completely pulled me in. The bond between Leo and Efi is both heartwarming and bittersweet, and each chapter felt like reading a dark little fairy tale. I also really enjoyed the gameplay. The turn-based battles are simple but fun, and I loved the concept of literally fighting lies. It’s a clever way to tie the story and mechanics together, and it kept things interesting without being too difficult. Highly recommended for anyone who enjoys narrative-driven games with a touch of mystery and fantasy.

About This Game

Efina is a very special young girl. She's curious. She's optimistic. She has the power to make lies manifest themselves as physical beings, which then become her own sustenance.
She's also a dragon.

LiEat is the classic story of a vagabond traversing a strange and mysterious world together with a dragon protégé, buying and selling secrets, while also attempting to uncover the truth about themselves. Along the way, they'll discover a web of arcane mysteries, meet a variety of colorful characters (including other dragons), and shed light on events of the past which ultimately served to lead them to where―and who―they are today.
The epic tale of LiEat is composed of three fantastical, bite-sized chapters:

Chapter I introduces Efina and her caretaker―the multinominal Leo―as they happen upon a small town with a big secret. As Efina starts to perceive and understand the world around her in a new and different light, the pair finds that the legends of beings which haunt the night are more than just tales told to frighten children...

Chapter II finds Efina and Hal (formerly Leo) investigating rumors of something magical and possibly dangerous inside a resort casino. Posing as a newly-assigned guard, Hal arranges room and board for himself and Efina―however, they quickly come to the jarring realization that a roof over one’s head and a bed to sleep in do not a safe haven make.

The final chapter of LiEat brings Efina and the newly rechristened Sid (Leo/Hal) to a lavish mansion to foil the plans of a master thief. However, in the wake of the great robbery, Sid discovers that the heist itself was only the tip of the iceberg, and Efina watches as his past―As well as his lies―finally catch up to them both.

Personally I enjoyed the game and am mildly fond of it, but would I recommend it to others? [h1]I get sidetracked discussing my uninformed thoughts on Five Nights at Freddy's (Seriously, I never even played those games, what am I going on about?)[/h1] LiEat is incredibly thin in many areas. Let's start with the story, and the short Steam description begins with "Welcome to a world in which dragons are born from the desires of mankind." That's actually not told to the player right away, and half the game is spent wondering where baby dragons come from essentially, but there's so little actually going on here that just to have something to actually say about the game, the description had to give away one of the major mysteries right off the bat. Honestly, I have a little saying in my head on how to stretch out a plot: "If you don't have a story, then make it a backstory instead." What I mean is, take Five Nights at Freddy's for example, and my understanding is that they vaguely mention...

Super cute, quaint, horror-lite RPG. The battles aren't really the focus, instead mostly being about overworld puzzles and dialogue. The pixel art is really well made, and the short bits of animated scenes and stills are a delight to behold, even if in a somewhat low resolution. I’m pretty stupid so I got stuck a few times, but there are very comprehensive guides to achieve everything in the game. Each game also allows you to view all the CGs and animated scenes once you’ve completed them, along with a sound test, which is appreciated. Super cheap and fairly short, so hard to go wrong with. Just a delightful little time.
Review after 100% The only real negative aspect that I can think of for LiEat is that there will never be a LiEat 4. This trilogy of short games is one of the primary examples of the most splendid utilizations of RPG maker, they are short story focused rpgs with a very light approach on the combat (which exists only for story purposes). LiEat follows the bonding relationship between a notorious conman and her little dragon sidekick as they uncover three different mysteries and also shed light on the protagonist’s past. The writing is endearing and agile, the world building is simple and yet intriguing and the characters are so entertainingly distinct that I just wanted to see more of them. I am going to actually stop this review here; just go buy it, when it’s on sale it’s astonishingly cheap! I could go on ranting on the beautiful pastel pixel art, or on the animated cutscenes or the music which is at the same time gloomy and comforting but the review would be longer than th...
Pretty cute. I enjoyed my time in this game. The most validating thing ever was seeing a guide mention that a lot of people got stuck exactly where I did.
Strange stuff.
Short and cute game, with some touching moments. Play for the story and not the RPG elements, as it's extremely easy.
The art style is soooo nice, I completely recommend for this price it is so worth >:0!!!
