ABOUT THE GAME
The Call of Darkness is a story-driven sci-fi visual novel set in a distant future where you play as a war veteran standing at the edge of a new beginning.
The scars of a great conflict that nearly tore humanity apart still linger, and as the newly appointed captain of a diverse and alluring crew, you’re ready to seek peace in the stars.
But something ancient has awakened—a force born from a forgotten prayer whispered in the chaos of war. It watches, it hungers, and it has chosen you.
Its messenger, shaped by your own desires, offers both guidance and temptation—but she cannot face what’s coming without you.
As your past collides with an uncertain future, you’ll uncover truths that test your will, your humanity, and your soul. In this journey through light and shadow, every victory comes at a cost.

NOTE
We’d love to make the full version of our game available directly on Itch.io, but due to ongoing payment processing restrictions affecting adult visual novels, we’re currently limited in what we can host here.
These policies—driven by third-party payment providers—have made it difficult for smaller developers to share fully legal and age-restricted content on some platforms.
For now, you can enjoy the free demo here on Itch.io, and find links to our developer page for more information about the full release.
You can also follow us on Steam, where the complete version will be available soon.
Thank you for your understanding and support—it means the world to independent creators like us.
