* HelloInsertNameHere: You are given the choice to give your name at the start. Notably, you are ''not'' naming the protagonist, but the character who she is telling her story to. [[spoiler:And if you give the name Tsukiko- the sister of protagonist Minako- then you end up on the route to get the true ending. And putting in AAAAAA unlocks a comedic omake Route starring the titular stock RPG hero.]]

* JokeEnding: Putting in [[spoiler:AAAAAA]] when [[HelloInsertNameHere asked your name]] will unlock [[spoiler:a brief route where you play as the titular generic RPG hero guided by snarky mage girl BBBBBB, and the spooky ExplorerHorror inside a HauntedHouse is turned into a dungeon-crawler with traps and fighting the BigBad ghost girl in an RPG battle, with the characters lampshading everything and not a hint of seriousness.

* NarrativeBackpedaling: Getting killed by the ghost will prompt the protagonist, who is recounting the events of the game to an unseen character, to claim that everything she said is a lie and leave. [[spoiler:The implication given TheReveal is that, should the ghost/Kanako catch up to Minako, the former rewrites the memories of the latter entirely.

Added DiffLines:

* MindScrew: Even more so than the first game as the storytelling comes in out-of-order snippets, flashbacks, and bits of lore found in notes and such.
* MindScrewdriver: While the game itself does have even more MindScrew aspects, it also does a lot to clear up the ambiguity in the previous game's story with flashbacks that make it clear what happened.

''Shoujo Kidan'' is an ExplorerHorror game by lol_rust, creator of ''VideoGame/DotFlow'' and ''VideoGame/MilyaBroken''. Similarly to those games, it is a dark and surreal experience with [[JigsawPuzzlePlot fragmented storytelling]] and some parts without clear answers.

You are someone who has been trapped inside a mansion with a strange girl who has [[AmnesiacHero lost her memories]]. Said girl has decided to tell you the story of [[HowWeGotHere how she got where she is now]]. You play as the girl as she wakes up in a strange Japanese mansion and must escape while being chased by a red spirit. In the process, she may discover who she is and why she is here.

Followed up by ''Shoujo Gidan'', a sequel taking place some time later. Here, you play as a girl who has been captured by a Man of the Box, a maniac with a box head who traps you in his prison. On the way, you encounter and receive help from Tsukiko, a woman who also got captured by the Man, and now the two of you have to escape.

!This game contains examples of:

[[folder:''Shoujo Kidan'']]
* BigBad: [[spoiler:Kanako Iwamoto]] is the red spirit who trapped the protagonist, [[spoiler:her sister Minako]], in the mansion and is trying to kill her.
* HelloInsertNameHere: You are given the choice to give your name at the start. Notably, you are ''not'' naming the protagonist, but the character who she is telling her story to. [[spoiler:And if you give the name Tsukiko- the protagonist Minho's sister- then you end up on the route to get the true ending.]]
* OntologicalMystery: You play as a girl who wakes up in a mansion with no memory of who she is or how she got here, and have to slowly discover everything through notes and such left around the mansion.

[[folder:''Shoujo Gidan'']]
* BloodierAndGorier: ''Kidan'' has at most a few pools of blood here and there, and cuts away before a game over. ''Gidan'' is much more grotesque- the death scenes are now shown with little sprite animations for each, the imagery incorporates a lot of gore as the prison shifts into an EldritchLocation, and there is a lot more death involved in the backstory as well.
* OntologicalMystery: Just like the previous game; here you play as a girl kidnapped by a man wearing a box on his head who has trapped her in his prison, and she teams up with a woman, Tsukiko, who is also trapped- together, the two have to escape and figure out where they are and why they are here.
* SpoilerTitle: The title, as translated in English, is [[spoiler:"A Girl's Fake Story"]], giving away that [[spoiler:what's going on is, at the very least, not taking place in the human world]].
* SurrealHorror: Even more so than the first game, as it utilizes ''VideoGame/DotFlow''-esque imagery a lot more and has a more convoluted plot line.
