Ib (Series)

From The Codex
"Mature Content"
This character or verse has mature themes and concepts, thus those of young age are ill-advised to look through these.

Background

Ib is a horror game made by kouri, released in February 2012. It starts off with a nine-year-old girl named Ib who had arrived at the Guertena Art Gallery with her parents for the very first time. When Ib's parents are busy at the reception, Ib was allowed to wander off on her own around the art gallery.

The story of Ib is about a young girl named Ib who had arrived at the Guertena Art Gallery with her parents. While her parents were at the reception desk, Ib asks to wander off on her own around the art gallery. When Ib observes a certain painting called Fabricated World (known initially as ??? World to Ib), the lights start to flicker.

Ib will soon find out that everyone had disappeared and that she is all alone.

According to the game's Japanese dialogue, the game takes place at some point after the year 6235.

Power of the Verse

Ib is a relatively standard, with some characters displaying superhuman traits with strength and speed. They also contain abilities such as Immortality, Subjective Reality, Reality Warping, etcetera.

Explanations

  • Rose: Roses are the health meters in the game Ib. The petals of the roses represent the character's remaining life meter. Petals can be lost by direct contact with an enemy, exposure to environmental hazards, or dialogue-triggered damage. If the rose of a currently controlled character loses all of its petals the character will die, resulting in a game over. The exception is Mary, as her rose is fake; therefore, it does not represent her health meter. Each controllable character has a unique rose. Ib's rose is red and has a total of five petals; when Ib first acquires it, only three petals will be attached. Garry's rose is blue and has ten petals, most likely due to the fact that he's an adult. Mary's rose is yellow, though, as it is fake, the number of petals is unknown. In order for a rose to be restored, it must be placed in one of the water-filled vases scattered around the cursed gallery. Most vases in the game can only be used once, with the exception of the blue Eternal Blessing vases and the vase in the gas room. The latter can be used repeatedly because water dripping from the ceiling refills it.
