The Letter is an incredible visual novel where every decision you make matters. The voice acting is fantastic, and most every character has a memorable personality and story save for maybe two of seven main cast. The soundtrack is amazing, with each scene changing from serene and warm, to cold and haunting, to run-for-your-life fear. I feel that the constantly changing art styles may be a tad jarring, but overall it adds character to the experience. The story is fairly basic and easy to piece together, but it still held me captive until I had finished a single route and went back for more. I had an wonderful time saving (or not saving) my favorites, seeing them grow, and watching as my decisions created untold butterfly effects throughout. It was a great time, the jumpscares and horror elements really weaving into a grandiose story. Loved it!

Excellent horror CYOA. The choices matter, the characters are likable, the story is interesting, and you will get multiple playthroughs out of it (each being decent in length). I highly recommend this game.
