Burn Me Twice

About

Burn Me Twice follows Abigail, a witch facing daily execution by the Inquisition unless she solves a new crime. Each run lets you explore Düstenburg’s districts, gather clues, and interact with townsfolk to piece together evidence. Fail in court and she burns, literally. But after death, Abigail gains the ability to relive her final day, tweaking choices to uncover hidden leads or alter conversations. The loop repeats until justice is served or the town turns against her. The game stands out for its tight mystery structure and branching dialogue that rewards close attention. With each retry, subtle changes in character behavior and environmental details create new paths, balancing narrative depth with puzzle-like replayability. Since its 2020 release, it’s built a niche following for its clever time-loop twist on classic point-and-clicks, blending moral dilemmas with the urgency of a ticking noose.

Storyline

In each new case, the witch Abigail must solve a crime in order to not be sentenced to be burned at the stake by the Inquisition at the end of the day. Everything changes the day she fails and is killed. After dying, an unknown entity gives her the power to resurrect and repeat her last day alive. Explore the districts of Düstenburg, revisit the same day multiple times to interact differently with its charming inhabitants and solve the mysteries that plague the town.
