About
A young man shows up at a secluded house in the woods with one job: survive the night and secure his inheritance. The horror angle is real, not decorative, and it bleeds into every choice you make once the sun goes down.
The night doesn't stay simple. Depending on how you act around the women living in the house, you get pulled into different relationships, and those choices branch into separate endings rather than converging back to one script.
You read, you choose, and the story moves accordingly, text-based throughout with no animation to lean on. Later expansion pushes the story past the house itself into a nearby village with its own cast, though the core of the game stays the same: pick your path, live with what it costs you, or don't survive to see it.
