helloo! i just wanted to say i LOVEW THIS GAME its so good and its very impressive how consistent the updates are with the length and quality of the writing!! i noticed some typos in chapter 3, like words being missing! one in particular is ""'s a miracle worker." It's the closest I've heard Kai come to gushing.". it isnt anythign game ruining, but i just wanted to point it out!! good luck on working on the game in the future updates! this is probably my favorite text-based game so far
I got so scared when I finished season ten. I thought it was going to be like other stories i've read where they are unfinished and untouched for years. That was until I saw they commented 7 days ago :)))
hehe yes, i'm still alive. chapter 11 is in the works but my life is very very busy right now so progress has been slow. it hasn't been abandoned though !
holy moly i Did Not Sleep and played this in one go. All the interactions were so fun; I went for Rylan and Arion. 10/10 content, i laughed a lot at so many scenes. Very excited for future updates!!
i'll copy and paste my answer from a comment below: "it's not concrete yet but about 16-17. originally it was going to be 20ish but overtime the chapters have collapsed together"
1) how many chapters are you planning to make? (sorry if it's already on the page, i can't find it)
2) there's a kid in my bio class named rylan and he's annoying as all heck..i'm doing the rylan route rn and my brain is really confused lmao. ... they even sort of act similar
This game has consumed my every waking hour... and every resting hour, too. I've been dreaming about this game. Obsession is not quite an adequate descriptor. Safe to say, I will be shaking violently through 'til the finale!
I love this so much! A is my fav RO, but I definitely intend on going back and playing Blane's route, once the next chapter hits. I can't believe A just left me in there with Ciel alone, after what they literally just said about never leaving me alone, but I get it. Also, Blane and A are going to be friends? frenemies? people-who-kinda-tolerate-each-other's? Can't wait!
haha trust me, A didn't want to leave the hunter but they wanted to respect their decision (also their anxiety was getting the better of them and they needed to LEAVE).
on another note, A and Blane have a very complicated relationship that i'm excited to explore
I BARELY CHECK THE GAME PAGE SO I DIDNT EVEN REALIZE THE NEW CHAPTER IS OUT I WISH I KNEW DURING MY BREAK BUT I CANT WAIT TO PLAY IT LATER WHEN I HAVE TIME I ALREADY KNOW ITS GONNA BE AMAZING
I do have a question... for each patch, do we have to restart from the beginning? I had to restart when the new chapter came out and today when I wanted to get further along in the chapters on another route, my saves were gone.
super super late reply but you shouldn't need to restart. it might be because you cleared your browser history (if you're playing on there) or cleaned your system recently. i've had the same saves for years while testing the game and they've never been erased.
That's weird. I haven't cleared my browser history since I have other VN I'm reading on there as well. Maybe my PC did an update and somehow messed up. It's fine though. Thanks for replying back! 🙂
im replaying the game to try out chap 10 bcuz omg this IF is so good?! but it's a BIT funny whenever i forget u can quite literally be prejudice toward supernaturals. like, why is "No, I don't make deals with your kind" AN OPTION?
(fyi, this is a JOKE, i rlly adore this IF and these lines of dialogue honestly make me shocked and giggle cuz the AUDACITY? lmao)
My goodness, of all the IFs Ive demo'd, yours is by far the one Im most eager to see reach its conclusion. Im highly engaged, your world and your characters, are great. I can't wait to be absolutely destroyed kissing Blane. 😭❤️🩹
Instead of *trying* to express how good this is so far, I'm just going to say that when I read "08. NO REST FOR THE WICKED" I happened to look at the clock and realized that it was 7AM and that I didn't sleep the entire night. And I don't regret it lol
Do you have a downloadable file for the game? I was able to play on my phone whenever I'm on mobile data, but not on PC. For some reason, itch decided to have a grudge against my ISP. The website is not loading any kind of image and can't even run browser games (already made a report about it). (T__T) And this only happened recently. I was able to play browser games just fine before.
I was hoping I could play in my PC via a downloaded file, but if that's not possible, that's fine! I just hope itch and my ISP decides to let me just play this game on my PC later.
hmm you might be able to download the index from the folder i uploaded to itch, but that's also an html/browser file so i'm not sure that'd work. sorry for the issues !
I read first 4 chapters and it is great so far, but before I can commit to this story I want to know if there will be a route and/or ending in which MC and IAOS capture Rylan and she is locked up for murder?
If not then my Pro hunter MC who NEVER FAILS BOUNTIES will have a meltdown.
I was just playing with a mc obssesed with cathing her so I thought if there was such an option to begin with guess MC will start to warm up to her now.
umm, i dont know if someone already addressed this but you can't save the game on the downloaded version on itch.io app? will there be way for you to check if there's a error or if its an error on my part?
the higher the number, the more 'influence' your hunter has in the department and the more iaos approves of your methods. it can be boosted by making mostly pragmatic decisions on the job (while bounty hunting, during a briefing, interrogation etc.)
stumbled upon this game when looking for more twine games, and when seeing a chance to romance a warlock and cause some chaos with emotions? very much sold me. I really love the profile and was very obsessed with checking the relationships to see what each fellow thought about me. loved both Kain and Rylan the most outta the bunch. much so that when playing it all over again to try getting Kain to become more open so I torture him so with emotions, I wished could also romance Rylan as well. overall I am extremely hooked and addicted to this game and where things go next.
haha K is definitely emotionally constipated. they won't appreciate it now, but they'll be grateful later that the hunter managed to take down their walls. so excited to show this progression <3
I am only filled with determination to incite chaos upon this poor warlock. no matter what walls they may build I will climb over them. I can't wait to see it! I will romance the hell out of them no matter what.
the allure of making an immortal falling in love is very excellent. I went back for Rylan and Blane mainly because I wished to see the reactions at the club and was not disappointed. K is still at my top, but Blane and Rylan tie next because ooo the glorious angst from Blane followed with chaotic Rylan.
so far so good too the point, I’m obsessed with this game. But this is just a curiosity, if the player isn’t human as well, but is keeping it a secret that they are a dark fae. Just a suggestion. Good work so far.
Hey I just wanted to say I really liked this game, found it mid July. The writing is super great, and I love the characters. Arion/Arden/Adair's physical description (At least the male version of A) reminds me of my coworker I was friends with when I used to work in a mechanics shop, the illustration is so similar, I really miss that guy. Can I ask how the progress is going on the next chapter? I can't wait to see more.
hi i just learned abt the fact there are gonna be poly routes, and i want to ask can we know when the poly routes will kick in or are we able to already start them? Asking out of cuorisity
I love this game so much! I’ve read through at least dozens of times by now, and fell in love with the cast each time - I don’t think I can pick any favourites, so it’s making it hard to choose who I want higher likability and romance points with sjdgeskdfhf my brain melts down each time.
I will ensure that Rylan has special window privileges to my apartment, without a doubt, he always manages to crack me up. And I will hope to exchange favours to see Kian, haha. Blane Rekner is another story… I’m trying so hard, and I won’t stop, haha. Nikolas and Arion are both so sweet, too.
Keep up the amazing work, and do take care of yourself!!!
aw thank you so much! i'm glad that you love so many of the characters; it's always such a huge compliment for me that people have trouble choosing who to romance haha. Rylan is such a fun character to write and i can't wait to give you more of them <33
I really enjoyed this game i played through it in the span of like three days and was surprised when i had hit chapter ten already felt like it went by fast and im looking forward to when chapter 10 comes out will definitely be adding this one to my ever growing list of really great interactive fictions normally how i do these reviews is i put my general reaction to the game before i start talking about individual characters so her is were ill put my
SPOILER WARNING PLAY THE GAME BEFORE CONTINUING
i Really like the partner dynamic im really a sucker for those kinds of things and this game does it well my love interest was Arden and i just absolutely adore everything about her character what im looking forward when it comes to her character in particular maybe clearing up her backstory because its imply-ed she has told us but you really don't get much at all its kinda like yea i told her everything and she told me everything other than that there's soo many places the writer could go and im sooo excited to see what happens.
for the next character
Blane is a super interesting character and i almost wanna go back and choose her as LI just to see if you get anything about her backstory that you wouldn't just get in a normal play-through and see how everything changes her dynamic with her partner is also interesting were theres like they care for each other but its hard to tell how close the two of them actually are.
Kaia is extremely difficult for me to comment on as i didn't spend much time with her at all so i think ill just keep this brief and say theirs definitely something going on with there character tho mostly for me they felt like the groups dad in a way and kept everyone in line XD
I love Rylan soooo much holy her character is so amazing Like the restaurant part were you two go to get food i went in there like man i dunno if i wanna even go with you to a restaurant but i mean fuck it to holy i love you so much like that crack in her character is fucking brilliant like i can not praise writers enough for making there characters multi-layered like up into this entire point im like this character is kinda selfish i dunno if i really like them there alright pretty charismatic flirty type and then there's a crack in the mask and i feel like i actually got punched in the gut and had to reassess everything i thought i knew about this character like my favorite character to date hands down we will see what happens on replays if i do any but right now top of the list and didn't even pick her as my RI Lmaoo
Last but no least is N
Yea im not really sure what to say here shes the glue that's holding this group together the peacekeeper i like her dynamic with her partner and with holding the group together pretty much the mom of the group.
The only problem i really had with the game is were i picked strategy as my main way of fighting and i feel like i maybe actually used it once kinda felt like i would have been better off picking anything else lmao especially weaponry however this could just be me picking the wrong options as well lmao Also a nitpick but i could also maybe go with some more boyish clothing options i saw like one during the nightclub clothing options XD
As far as the main story line i have soooo many theory's of whats going on and im super excited to see were the writer goes with it
Overall i loved the game its amazing super hard to find good interactive fictions and i can without a doubt say this is one of them much love to the writer

thank you for the catches! as many times as i've read this through, i always seem to find more. glad to hear you're enjoying it though <333
I got so scared when I finished season ten. I thought it was going to be like other stories i've read where they are unfinished and untouched for years. That was until I saw they commented 7 days ago :)))
hehe yes, i'm still alive. chapter 11 is in the works but my life is very very busy right now so progress has been slow. it hasn't been abandoned though !
alright, thank you. Good luck with personal stuff!
screaming love the UI love the story love how genuinely lovable all the characters are
ahhh thanks! the ui is one of my proudest achievements <33
holy moly i Did Not Sleep and played this in one go. All the interactions were so fun; I went for Rylan and Arion. 10/10 content, i laughed a lot at so many scenes. Very excited for future updates!!
eeeek thank you !!
Great so far!!!! arden is my fav i took that knife with no regrets! about how many chapters are there going to be?
i'll copy and paste my answer from a comment below: "it's not concrete yet but about 16-17. originally it was going to be 20ish but overtime the chapters have collapsed together"
I just wanted to wish you a good night (or day, depending on when you read this comment)! :3
you too ! thank you <3
1) how many chapters are you planning to make? (sorry if it's already on the page, i can't find it)
2) there's a kid in my bio class named rylan and he's annoying as all heck..i'm doing the rylan route rn and my brain is really confused lmao. ... they even sort of act similar
it's not concrete yet but about 16-17. originally it was going to be 20ish but overtime the chapters have collapsed together

BEST GAME EVER, I've been replaying every time a new chapter comes out, ON IT AGAIN.
😭😭 thank you <33
dont even PLAY WITH ME this was amazing!!!!!!!! if ur thinking about playing through this, ABSOLUTELY DO.
EEEEK thank youuu <3
This game has consumed my every waking hour... and every resting hour, too. I've been dreaming about this game. Obsession is not quite an adequate descriptor. Safe to say, I will be shaking violently through 'til the finale!
...
That's a good thing... I think
OMG ME TOO. I literally come back every month to see if there's a new chapter and replay everything every time a new chapter comes out. I'M ADDICTED
you're so cute :( thank you <33
awww thank you so much <33

Oh, it's alright! I'm just playing through them again. Lol.

(fyi, this is a JOKE, i rlly adore this IF and these lines of dialogue honestly make me shocked and giggle cuz the AUDACITY? lmao)
LMAOO see when people point this out to me i giggle a little because it really wasn't that unserious when i wrote it but seeing it after is 💀
My goodness, of all the IFs Ive demo'd, yours is by far the one Im most eager to see reach its conclusion. Im highly engaged, your world and your characters, are great. I can't wait to be absolutely destroyed kissing Blane. 😭❤️🩹
eeek thank you !! first kiss (i initially wrote kill, i'm tired) scene will be coming up within the next three chapters so get excited :))
Instead of *trying* to express how good this is so far, I'm just going to say that when I read "08. NO REST FOR THE WICKED" I happened to look at the clock and realized that it was 7AM and that I didn't sleep the entire night. And I don't regret it lol

chapter ten was nice, love that we’re easing in the romantic options, can’t wait heheh..
Anyways, reading it was amazing, I love your writing style. I can’t wait to kiss Rylan :evil_grin:
eek thank you so much ! so excited about finally getting into the romance <333
I AM PUMPED! please take your time too! Do not rush writing!
I read first 4 chapters and it is great so far, but before I can commit to this story I want to know if there will be a route and/or ending in which MC and IAOS capture Rylan and she is locked up for murder?
If not then my Pro hunter MC who NEVER FAILS BOUNTIES will have a meltdown.
no, as Rylan is an ro, that won't be possible. the game does kind of suggest that Rylan was not responsible for that murder, however.
Thanks a lot.
what do you want to arrest her for? lmao
nothing.
I was just playing with a mc obssesed with cathing her so I thought if there was such an option to begin with guess MC will start to warm up to her now.
ciel's interrogation hits hard
i'm glad you liked that scene! <33
OHHHH RYLAN*SIGHS*😩😩😩😩❤️
For real… <3
umm, i dont know if someone already addressed this but you can't save the game on the downloaded version on itch.io app? will there be way for you to check if there's a error or if its an error on my part?
you have to toggle a button in settings for it to work :)) sorry this isn't more clear, that's my bad
AAAAAA IM SO EXCITED
"Sin city is cold and empty" - The Weeknd
in chapter ten my guess is that we will visit Vegas
Hi, just wanted to ask what hunter status mean exactly, is it good if the number goes up? And how is it influenced? Thanks
the higher the number, the more 'influence' your hunter has in the department and the more iaos approves of your methods. it can be boosted by making mostly pragmatic decisions on the job (while bounty hunting, during a briefing, interrogation etc.)
Sin City?
sin city wasn't made for you
This is really good!
hehe thanks !
FILIPINO PRIDE RAAAAAAH, I ❤️ my baby R. I love this game soso much
thank you!! seeing Rylan's filipino ethnicity connect with so many people makes me so happy :))
stumbled upon this game when looking for more twine games, and when seeing a chance to romance a warlock and cause some chaos with emotions? very much sold me. I really love the profile and was very obsessed with checking the relationships to see what each fellow thought about me. loved both Kain and Rylan the most outta the bunch. much so that when playing it all over again to try getting Kain to become more open so I torture him so with emotions, I wished could also romance Rylan as well. overall I am extremely hooked and addicted to this game and where things go next.

I am only filled with determination to incite chaos upon this poor warlock. no matter what walls they may build I will climb over them. I can't wait to see it! I will romance the hell out of them no matter what.
Ooh this makes me want to do K's route
the allure of making an immortal falling in love is very excellent. I went back for Rylan and Blane mainly because I wished to see the reactions at the club and was not disappointed. K is still at my top, but Blane and Rylan tie next because ooo the glorious angst from Blane followed with chaotic Rylan.
It doesn't hurt that Rylan has my exact type of humour, but don't forget that he also has his angst. Just a matter of getting him to trust us ig
so far so good too the point, I’m obsessed with this game. But this is just a curiosity, if the player isn’t human as well, but is keeping it a secret that they are a dark fae. Just a suggestion. Good work so far.
thank you!! i'm glad you're enjoying it. i just want to clarify that the mc is human; no secrets hidden there :))
loved this game sfgjksfg
eeeek thank you!!

ah thanks ! it's soo cool that A reminded you of someone you knew in real life—i know i'd love to meet a irl A.
as for progress, chapter ten will be out very very soon :)
is there a walkthrough?, found the game a few days ago, so far im loving it
there's not, no. but there really isn't much you can get "wrong" in this game for there to be one
thank you!, i always ask this in case there's some decisive choices that drastically change the story
hi i just learned abt the fact there are gonna be poly routes, and i want to ask can we know when the poly routes will kick in or are we able to already start them? Asking out of cuorisity
they'll kick in during book two, one is a vee (A and Blane) and one is a triad (A and Rylan) !
I love this game so much! I’ve read through at least dozens of times by now, and fell in love with the cast each time - I don’t think I can pick any favourites, so it’s making it hard to choose who I want higher likability and romance points with sjdgeskdfhf my brain melts down each time.
