- MysteryCrown wishes you all the best in the Chinese new year - 16 February 2026
MysteryCrown FMV Studio would like to express our deepest gratitude for your long-term companionship and support. It has been over two years since the launch of our first FVM, 'Try and love', on January 25, 2024.As a small-budget studio, our productions cannot compete with million-dollar projects in terms of scale or polish. However, over these two years, we have remained committed to our horror roots with titles like 'Back','UndeadReal:Ego',‘Back2’,‘Back 3', while also daring to explore new genres (Worthy or not) and innovative gameplay mechanics (Pact between us). Regardless of the outcomes, we are truly thankful for your tolerance and support for all our products.In the past year, to ensure the studio's survival, we ventured into secondary creations (such as 'Mouringwood Lodge' series and 'Invisible us') and even developed adaptations based on film and television content ('Mute'). Lo…
- Announcement the Release of "The invisible Us" - 22 November 2025
Dear bros who have long supported our studio, our new adapted product, "The invisible Us," releasedSimilarly, as an adapted product, it does not have a branching structure or a true multiple-ending setup. Bros who are concerned about this should consider carefully before purchasing.The pacing of this product is also relatively slow, focusing mainly on storytelling. There are no jump scares or horror elements, so those who are drawn to our studio for its horror FMV should also think twice before buying.However, because it deals with a relatively uncommon theme, my experience while playing it felt quite different. Let me share some specific feelings.As a piece of content addressing anti-school bullying, it felt quite heavy at times, and occasionally even stirred up some anger. It’s not exactly a joyful gaming experience, which makes me wonder—does this contradict the fundamental purpose o…
- "Mourningwood Lodge2:Hidden voice" Release Announcement - 25 October 2025
Hello to all our longtime supporters and friends of our studio, "Back"! Our second fan-creation project, "Mourningwood Lodge2:Hidden voice" is now officially released.Before you purchase and play, I’d like to clarify a few things."Mourningwood Lodge2:Hidden voice" was developed based on pre-existing video footage, so if you’re looking for multiple branching storylines, this might not be the game for you. Additionally, the deductive reasoning process in this game bears some resemblance to another mystery game released last week—purely coincidental. After reviewing feedback from players, I’ve further simplified the puzzles. However, the game still contains some jump scares (at the very least, our QA testers were startled multiple times, though fear is subjective, of course). For any shortcomings, I appreciate your understanding.To be honest, creating FMV (full-motion video) games comes wi…
- "Mourningwood Lodge2:Hidden Voice" - Release Date Announcement: October 25th - 20 October 2025
Hey bros who've been following our interactive movie game series from 《Back》! Our brand new fan-creation project, "Mourningwood Lodge2:Hidden Voice", is set for an early release on October 25th (this Saturday)."Mourningwood Lodge2:Hidden Voice" from the Beyondtells a story that happens beforethe events of "Mourningwood Lodge". In FBH1, Wang Hui ultimately met his end as a sacrifice, but long before that, he was already involved in other paranormal incidents.Furthermore, this prequel will secretly contain hints related to a future installment in the Mourningwood Lodge series (let's temporarily call it Mourningwood Lodge 3).As a fan-creation product, we've been able to optimize some of the issues players raised regarding FBH1. However, the lack of significant branching paths is something that's genuinely tricky to address. Just as I explained in a previous announcement, this pro…
- September 27 Announcement - 27 September 2025
To all old and new friends of the “Back”series, “Back3:Spooky”is now officially released. Some of the backstory and reasoning regarding “Back3:Spooky”were explained in quite some detail in the previous announcement. Brothers who are interested can go take a look.To put it simply, “Back3:Spooky”is still far from reaching the quality I had hoped for. Therefore, for all brothers who purchase “Back3:Spooky”this time, you will still be eligible to receive a free key for“Back4”during its future promotional activity (assuming “Back4”gets made).Speaking of “Back4”, the current idea is to emulate the approach of Marvel. If the "Back" series tells Ren Xing's story, then I intend for “Back3:Spooky”to start telling the story of another protagonist. Then, potentially in “Back7”, the two protagonists might meet. Perhaps this new protagonist is from another faction, and the two teams need to confront…
- Announcement One Week Before the Release of 《Back3》 - 18 September 2025
To all guys who have supported the Back series, The third installment of our Back series, 《Back3》, will be launched next week. (The current store time is set for September 28, but there is a possibility it may be released earlier on the 27th.) It’s been a while since we last communicated with an announcement. The reasons are threefold: first, we’ve been busy adapting the second creation into a scripted murder mystery game; second, we’ve been occupied with seeking funding for Back 4; and third, due to various internal and external factors, we’ve been feeling uncertain about our path ahead, leading to some deep reflection and hesitation. So, we’d like to take this opportunity to discuss things with everyone. (Regarding the code giveaway event for 《Back3》, we’ve received all the emails and won’t be replying to each individually. The codes will be distributed uniformly before the launch.) F…

- Extreme Feminist Rumor Mongers—You've "Won," But I Won’t Surrender - 26 July 2025
First, I sincerely apologize once again for the incidents yesterday where streamers showcasing my game were banned by their platforms after its launch. I’m truly sorry for the trouble caused. I tried contacting relevant authorities, but made no progress. As an indie developer facing this situation, I feel powerless. I was informed that while my game’s content raised no issues with authorities in my studio’s jurisdiction, different platforms fall under the oversight of different regional departments. Unless a top-down directive is issued, this deadlock remains unsolvable—at least for someone like me.The root cause is the victory of those spreading malicious feminist rumors. Your influence is terrifyingly strong. Indie developers? Gaming communities? All crumble under your smear campaigns. Once public sentiment turns against something, fiction becomes fact and white becomes black—you’re t…
- "Pact between us" Is Now Live! - 25 July 2025
First and foremost, thank you to all the brothers (fans) for your support. The game has finally launched on schedule. All the rumors have been debunked; truth prevails in the hearts of people. Regrettably, as mentioned in our previous announcement, due to the overwhelming amount of malicious rumors and spreaders, the game has been virtually banned on nearly all platforms. Up(s) are getting taken down almost as soon as they stream it. Therefore, you likely won't be able to find much information or content related to the game online. I sincerely apologize for this. Personally, I am powerless against this situation. Certain factions seem to operate on a principle of "better to kill a thousand innocents than let one guilty escape." We can only try to take this development philosophically. Let's talk about the game itself. It's launched, and you can all experience it now. Following our usual…
- Final Notice Before Launch: "Pact between us" - 19 July 2025
"Pact between us" will launch as planned on July 25th. Following the recent incident of malicious rumors, I have a few things I’d like to say before the launch.As shown in the image below, after fully cooperating with relevant authorities during their inspection and submitting all game content to the competent departments, I have completed gathering all evidence. I have entrusted a law firm to initiate legal proceedings against all organizations responsible for creating and spreading these rumors. Regardless of the outcome, this game is essentially my brainchild. When my child is slandered and wronged, I must defend them and seek justice.This incident has also given me a profound disillusionment with certain harsh social realities. There’s no need for me to explain the game itself anymore – you'll see for yourselves upon launch. The relevant authorities have investigated it, and it pass…
