Sometimes children don't realize how mean they can be. The woman can hear you taunting her outside, and spends her days crying, wishing for her life to come to a peaceful end. Then she could be with the people whom she loved and who loved her.

 Three weeks later she really does pass away. Almost no one in the neighborhood notices.


I don't wanna play this anymore.  :'(
Wow, what event is this?
I don't remember it.
If memory of the original game serves correctly, it's the so-called "mean old witchlady"(who is not mean at all), where you have an option of joining your fellow kids in being total assbastards to her, or being nice to her. Being nice to her has a much happier ending.

The other option is investigating the house, and I feared something bad would happen to me if I were to choose it. D:

aw man, i had a great life in the game, rich and happily married with two kids, didn't get molested or die due to accident in later age.  The sunset screen almost brought a little tear to my eye.  Couldn't calmly talk a friend from jumping off the roof and mom died of cancer, but thats not too bad for someone who lives to die of old age.

I was nice to the old witchlady and I'm glad I went through with that decision.

Me too. Especially fun to play if you're a girl because then you can become her witch apprentice if you got the right stats.

Gee, when I haven't slept for a while, I laugh at things that aren't funny.

Anyways, I think I might be trying to die in the worse ways possible. Not sure yet, though.

I got the old lady to kill herself.
This is so fun.

Oh wow, I remember playing this game a few years ago when I found it. Great stuff.

I never could figure out how to get a decent job game-wise, but in one playthrough, it placed me in as an executive of some comany in the scenarios. Go figure.

That said, I'm trying to develop an Alter Ego-inspired game myself. We'll see how well that turns out.

Been a while since I played this.  I think on my last playthrough I lived to like, 80 then died of a stroke.  Fun times.  No children, good job, but I didn't get to have FUN through it no matter how much of a dick I was.

Just make sure it handles events better, I hate to not be able to play an event just because something is missing.
