Spoiler for My theory about Prime:
For five games, Hachijou Ikuko, who may or may not be an escaped Yasu but I really think she is, tried to help Tohya/Battler remember and come to terms with what really happened on the island through detective games as therapy.
Some time during or after the fifth game, Tohya/Battler figured it out. He wrote the sixth game to prove to Ikuko/Yasu that he had at least mastered the main points.
The seventh 'game' was clearing up loose ends and filling in details. Battler/Tohya and Ikuko finally come clean to eachother, through their pieces Will and Clair/Lion. Finally united in the truth, they contact Eva discretely and get the diary from her at this time. This leads to the Episode 7 tea party, when they finally read the diary and see the truth from the point of view of Eva.
Eva is not lying, but as a human, Eva is not perfect and she can make mistakes or misinterpret events. So when reading the ep7 tea party any scene that Eva is not in should be thrown out as equivalent to having the seven stakes of purgatory flying around or Kinzo walking around chatting with people.
In other words, Eva believed the Rudolph/Kyrie culprit theory, but she is mistaken. It was more like Rudolph and Kyrie saw the situation devolving into a massacre and decided they had to wipe out the other adults to survive. In that scene where Kyrie is talking about singing the praises of a woman's freedom and basically disowns Ange, Kyrie was actually manipulating Eva to adopt Ange and ensure her child's future because she had figured out that her gun was probably loaded with blanks.
Of course, most people would never put that together, or even try to. Most people, especially those who don't know the family well at all, would just read the diary and conclude 'lol Kyrie' and just push Ange even closer to the edge, so they hid it from her. Which leads us to game 8.

What about the bit about
Eva's diary being the truth? It COULD be that it was truth in that it was what she believed (i.e. Gold Truth), or maybe she only placed in her diary the scenes she saw directly? The events might have just strongly suggested Rudolf/Kyrie as culprits, but I think the thought of her not pouring her own interpretations into the diary is a bit of a stretch.
I agree with the rest though.
