The story is engaging and explores deep themes such as freedom, identity, and the emotional weight of choices, with multiple endings that offer varying degrees of resolution. While some players noted that the narrative could feel repetitive despite the choices made, the character perspectives and plot twists, particularly surrounding Emile's struggles, keep the experience compelling. Overall, it may not be groundbreaking, but it effectively captivates players with its emotional depth and intriguing concepts.
“Etha's cage is not an amazing story, but it will keep you hooked. It has an interesting concept and accomplishes what it set out to do: explore the perspective of different characters.”
“While the story is sad in itself, the different endings aren't as discouraging. For example, in the bad ending, Emile is told by the ghost of his mother that things will be better, while in another ending, he marries his cousin Elith after finally standing up to his father by holding blackmail about his father's infidelity.”
“I found the story gripping from the opening lines, and Emile's situation is heart-wrenching.”
“So because of how short it was, I will not refer to the story but will keep it vague.”
“While this isn't really a hugely interesting point, I do find the concept of the choices and their remarks to be interesting to say the least. Some choices matter more than others, but seemingly you reach the same scene as you would have before. Though when getting the different endings, I did notice a minor change to the story.”
“While the story is sad in itself, the different endings aren't as discouraging, such as the bad ending where Emile is told by the ghost of his mother that things will be better. In the other, he marries his cousin, Elith, after finally standing up to his father by holding blackmail of the true nature of his father cheating, being the rightful heir to his fortune and the truth on why Etha, Emile's mother, died.”
