The Coffin of Andy and Leyley is an early access walk-n-talk psychological horror RPG Maker game developed and published by Nemlei for Microsoft Windows systems.[1] The game started as a game jam demo released on Itch.io[2] until it was later expanded in an early access release for Steam with the release of chapter 2 on Oct. 13 2023[1]. The plot follows the titular sibling duo in a toxic, codependent relationship as they try to survive a dystopian world.
Gameplay
The game consists of simple puzzle solving intertwined with sections of dialogue between characters. Players switch control between Ashley and Andrew throughout the game, where they complete puzzles or move between a set of locations. Players can interact with some objects to get a description about the item, to pick it up, or change it in some way, which is often used to move the story forwards or complete certain puzzles. At certain parts in the game, players enter dream sequences that serve as flashbacks or premonitions about the story, which can also include puzzle sections of their own. Text sections consist of images of characters accompanied with colored text indicating which character is speaking. In some segments, fully illustrated pictures of characters may accompany the text. Players can make choices to change the plot or get star sprites above their characters, which may affect the plot in later chapters[citation needed]. The game is Nonlinear, with the player's choices dictating which of three endings they get.
Plot
Two siblings, Andrew and Ashley Graves are trapped in their apartment for 3 months without food following a quarantine order blamed on supposedly contaminated water. As a result, they have little to no contact with the outside world, including their mother. One day, they hear their neighbor playing extremely loud music, and after some investigation they discover he is trying to preform a demonic ritual. After a few days of the warden in the building promising food that never arrives, the neighbor begins preforming a ritual again. This time, he successfully manages to summon a demon. The demon kills him, then Andrew and Ashley decide to butcher and cannibalize his corpse for food. We then get a flashback to younger Ashley coercing Andrew to lock a girl in a box for confessing her feelings towards him. After waking up, the two resolve to get out of the apartment, where they kill one warden, sacrifice another, and kill another tenant who had a close relationship with the wardens.
