Saint Maker is a horror visual novel created by Yangyang Mobile. It is effectively a kinetic novel, as there is only one path and one ending, but the player gets to make smaller choices that change the dialogue and the little details of how a scene plays out.Saint Idelora's convent is a place where parents send their troubled daughters to be reformed. A teenage girl named Holly Bertram is sent for reasons she's not quite able to remember, and meets another teenage girl named Gabriella, and the no-nonsense nun Sister Adira. She finds Saint Idelora's to be creepy and a bit stifling, but not too terrible… until her first night, when she hears chanting and sees saint statues standing over her bed and staring at her.It turns out, Saint Idelora's has some dark secrets, and Holly will need to uncover them if she hopes to make it out alive…It is available on Steam here.

Ambiguous Situation
 Saint Maker (Visual Novel) / int_1f6983f7
comment
Ambiguous Situation: The saint statues themselves. Did they really move in the night and stare down at Holly? Are they really full of innards when broken? How conscious are the souls of the other girls trapped inside? How much of it was real and how much was an illusion of Holly's given to her by the ghost girl?

As the Good Book Says...

comment
As the Good Book Says...: The nuns at the convent, particularly Sister Adira, have a tendency to quote the Bible to justify their harsh practices.

Companion Cube

comment
Companion Cube: Little Cornelia carried a unicorn doll during her stay in the convent, which was taken from her due to unicorns being "against God." She eventually got it back, but it had been shaved and had its horn removed, and the nuns called her ungrateful when this understandably drove her to tears.

Stern Nun: Sister Adira is this… at least in the beginning, before she's revealed to be fully aware of and complicit in the convent's practices.

comment
Angsty Surviving Twin: Holly had a twin sister, Liana, who was Driven to Suicide before the events of the game, and Holly blames herself for being complicit in her parents' abuse of her. Holly's reaction to this is what got her sent to Saint Idelora's.

Break the Cutie
 Saint Maker (Visual Novel) / int_4b316d47
comment
Break the Cutie: The young nun from the segments in the convent's past; all she wanted was to guide young girls to what she felt was a happier, more virtuous life, and was horrified by how harsh her fellow Sisters would act towards the girls in their care. Then little Cornelia was deemed a "lost cause" and killed, despite the nun's pleas. That nun grew into the harsh and cold Sister Adira.

comment
Let the Past Burn: In the climax, Saint Idelora's is set on fire and burned to the ground, an act that seems to release the spirits of girls that lingered there. Holly and Gabriella are satisfied to see it burn, taking its long legacy of abuse down with it.

Self-Serving Memory
 Saint Maker (Visual Novel) / int_8fdd68fc
comment
Self-Serving Memory: The player can invoke this themself in Holly's flashbacks to growing up with Liana. Liana was frequently punished for "wrongdoings" by her religious parents, and Holly remembers tending to her afterwards, though whether she helped emotionally or by treating her wounds is up to the player. Eventually, however, it's revealed to be this trope at work, Holly finally, tearfully admits "This isn't how it happened" and has to face the fact that she didn't do anything.

Pseudo-Romantic Friendship
 Saint Maker (Visual Novel) / int_a058376e
comment
Pseudo-Romantic Friendship: Holly and Gabriella, the other girl at the convent. The two of them slowly bond throughout the story, finding each other as their sole comfort there, and Gabriella even offers to let Holly move in with herself and her mom as they leave the convent. It never overtly goes into romantic territory, but the game is sometimes marketed as being a yuri game.

Artistic License – Religion
 Saint Maker (Visual Novel) / int_a27c0c2c
comment
Artistic License – Religion: The nuns and convent are clearly meant to be based on Catholicism, which does not permit nuns to show their hair from beneath their habits as the nuns here do. However, this was likely done to help differentiate between the various nuns that appear in the game, and to help foreshadow that Sister Adira and the young nun in the flashbacks are the same person, as they have similar hairstyles.

Nun Too Holy
 Saint Maker (Visual Novel) / int_e9550e66
comment
Nun Too Holy: The nuns at Saint Idelora's are cruel, verbally abusive, and murder girls by sealing them in hollow statues if they think the girls can't be "saved." We see this the most in the past, in which several of them frequently appear to verbally abuse Cornelia and the young nun.

Dark Secret: Saint Idelora's convent would seal the girls they considered "lost causes" inside the hollowed-out statues of the saints. The ghost of Cornelia, whom Holly has been seeing and speaking to, all but states she is only one of their many victims.
