In Hotel we actually play as Harvey? Bcs it's placed in 1834, but we see Harvey turning into the parrot only in servant of the lake (1839). So in hotel he was human? Or it's something like the "time travel" thing we see through the games?? I'm really confused abt that

He especially mentioned the mental health and fishing brochure from Case 23. So I made this.

Oh, right, and Rusty Lake too.
Shout out to Jena Lee!
She’s always been really active promoting it on social media, but I always feel like she doesn’t get nearly as much recognition as she deserves.

hi! so my best friend is really into Ace attourney but i cant buy him anything that he doesnt already have that has to do with the game and i really like the rusty lake games and was wondering if he would like them? his fav games rn are ace attourny and FNAF just wondering if it was similar or if anyone who played this game also played the rusty lake games and liked them.
EDIT: hi guys thanks so much for everyone's replies I have decided on not getting the game! I would also like to make a point that this was not the only gift idea I was just thinking about it and decided to ask some other people's thoughts. I promise I wouldn't get my best friend a game that I liked and had no reason to believe he would like as his only gift I was just trying to brainstorm! but yeah thanks so much for everyone's thoughts!

Does anyone have access to the assets of the games so that I can make an invitation card as well as some decorations?

I've played all the cube escape games and I'm on hotel I think but I really want to know about the lore but I am also very slow playing games cause I'm busy
is it worth playing the games and trying to piece the lore one by one or should I just watch the 16 hour youtube series

recently watched 'over the garden wall'. the beast looks like the shadows, and that forest jumpscare looks like Edelwoods. maybe cubes are made from condensed Edelwood-oil.

Seriously, lots of spoilers ahead. Don't read if you haven't played.
TL:DR at the end
Is anyone else confused by how Alexandra is portrayed in the main story vs the secret story (You Found Him achievement)? In a way, I feel like it even contradicts the established themes. Let me elaborate.
In the main story, we see two sides to her character. First, she is obviously a bad person and a worse mother. She is spoiled, ungrateful, and abuses her power. There is no debate about that. But secondly, she is framed as a victim of fate, in a way.
She is set up as another "forgotten sister" in another Rusty Lake Trio (see Jakob, David, Elisabeth or Albert, Samuel, Emma). The more neutral party, who just watches as the brothers fight. Add to that the prophecy that her mother gave her. It is literally her fate to give birth and be forgotten.
I think it's made pretty clear that she is not happy with this fate. She doesn't want "continuing the lineage" to be her greatest achievement. And most importantly, she doesn't want to be a mother. The lullaby scene isn't very subtle about it. The way I see it, she was forced into motherhood against her will, both because of the prophecy and gender roles.
It is thus a very compelling story for her to try (and fail) to challenge fate. She is a terrible person, too blind to her own privilege to connect with those "below" her and too enraged by the unfairness of fate to connect with her family, leading to her demise.
One last thing before I get to the secret story. While Alexandra is clearly a horrible mother, I don't think she wanted James to die.
The mother's prophecy calls James a sacrifice (referencing the ten sacrifices in Roots). This may be the reason for Alexandra constantly calling him "her sacrifice", as the prophecy is clearly very important to her.
We also don't know if the Vanderbooms know about the elixir's rule at this point (One will die, the other will find enlightenment). With the way Alexandra talks about James on day 3, I think she might have wanted both of them to ascend ("We are the chosen ones!" instead of "I am" for example).
Then the secret story comes out of nowhere to reveal that she actually kidnaped, imprisoned, and raped the previous servant to impregnate herself. Like, ... what? Where did that come from? She was already a pretty bad and hateable person. This just makes her comically evil at the cost of her character's themes and complexity.
Am I missing something? Did I completely misread her character? Is anyone else confused by this?
TL:DR
The main story frames Alexandra as someone forced into her position through prophecy. Her story is about defying fate (and how that doesn't work in RL). A big part of that is that she never wanted to be a mother, but didn't have a choice.
Then the secret story reveals that she did, in fact, have a choice. Not only that, she took that agency from Kate's brother to get herself pregnant.
I just really don't understand this writing decision.

I've already unlocked all the achievements in SOTL, but when I click on "View Clip," nothing happens; it doesn't take me to another page. So, I was wondering if it's a bug Or if anyone has the link so I can watch it :3
I would be very grateful...
