I was just looking around, and as soon as I downloaded the game, I got myself hooked and immersed in the story. all about it is just immaculate. I love the "main character"'s personality, plus the interactions with others are fluid and seem not forced or superficial. Thank you all for your work, and give us a chance to enjoy your creation with us
the art is stunning, the music was so enjoyable and of course, the story kept my attention and had me wanting more! my fav is absolutely Cirrus. i love me a hot, red flag lol looking forward to chapter 2!
this is so cool! i love the character designs, endings and cgs. on my first play, i got the best ending with cirrus (we are locked in now) and enjoyed it a lot! amazing work, devs :))
wow. genuinely, the safeword/aftercare feature is wonderful. i got a bit overwhelmed by a scene and decided to use it, and the sweet dialogue w/ the protagonist actually made me cry a little. it's such a rare feature in games, but so very well done and much appreciated by me. lots of love to the devs/writers.
I played the game on Steam but holy hell I love it so much. I am struggling to pick a favorite. My first run I got a bad ending for Cirrus (I ran away, ifykyk) but I went back and got the good end because I like him that much, lol. I really like the way the stories between all 4 people meld! Cirrus seems separate for now, but I am sure that will not be the case in the full game. I truly cannot pick a favorite, I love all of them for separate reasons.
I think I am doing something wrong but i don't know what. I click download now and continue to the download page. And then download for windows and it starts downloading and gets about a hour into it then stops. It goes red and says "File wasn't available on site". Has anyone else had this?
I think I'm missing something. because this is a demo correct? That's what the files are labeled as, and I was asked for a donation, So there has to be something I'm missing. You should only ever pay for a full game. The entire point of a demo is to allow people to play BEFORE buying the game. So they can see if they like it or not. It's definitely possible this is a full game, and the file names are old. It says nothing about being a demo on this page I dont think. It's just the file names. If this is an unlabeled demo that's a whole other issue and problem.
Not sure if you're new to the website but itchio games have that on all the download pages for free content no matter if it's a demo or not. It's not specific to Obscura. <3
the donations are optional, no one is being forced to give them money. also in this case it's not really a demo or the full game, it's just the first chapter. a lot of itchio games release in parts. it makes it easier on the dev teams while also allowing players shorter wait times for playing than just demo to full game
I need Oleander's chapter 2 so badly!!! (However morally grey the both of us are; the moment he murdered- I was so high and happy and I lost it) This game is so freaking good, I love Keir's story plot too! They're both just so fine! The only reason I'm not down bad for Cirrus is probably because we are the same type of person (I want, at one point, for our roles to switch; just imaging it makes me squeal; If you get me, you get me)
Scrolling further down the comments... It seems there's alot of mixed opinions about Cirrus lol (I love his morally grey ass) (He's the reddest flag i've ever seen) (I'm colour blind so it doesn't matter)
I love this game soo much I actually enjoyed playing it! Most importantly I loved the feature that lets us talk to the mc it’s such a sweet thing and cool idea and unique. This made the mc more of a character than just there …( hope u understand what am saying..;) anyways I would totally recommend this game and would love playing the second chapter!
Taking about the second chapter will you release new chapters/ content or is that it for the game …? Does anyone know ?
i loved everything about this demo. the storyline, the characters, the ambience...!!!!! plus there is the 'aftercare' option which i think was very thoughtful. cirrus my beloved ♡
Not only is this game extremely good, the dev team also has an entire Tumblr blog full of lore and character interactions. Christmas came early this year 😊
RHIS HAME IS SO GOOD!!!!!!!1 I enjoyed every bit of every route?!!? All of the characters are SO likeable (except one toxic priest COUGH it's ok we love him) and have such good stories, they're unique to the brim and i cannot wait to see what chapter 2 has in store!!! Did all 20 endings in like 2 days i need help i'm obsessed with these silly guys
this game is just too good! after recently finishing it, im wondering if anyone has an idea of when chapter 2 may come out? im just so excited to continue cirrus's route, especially after him saying he'll protect us!!!!! T.T
I’ve only just now got to really sit down and play the game, but so far its amazing. From the art, to the characters and the storyline.
(btw as a Keira… Being introduced to Keir threw me off for a second)
I'm a *huge* sucker for visual novels, always have, always will, and honestly this just makes me want to scream. The visuals, the character design, the soundtrack are all so amazing. And for once I found myself not hating the MC!
My first choice was actually Cirrus (I'm a huge sucker for religious characters) and I have NO regrets. Sometimes I feel like the dialogue's he has are weird, but honestly he's portrayed in a way that makes me squeal. My first ending was his best one, and that was.. a trip! Was NOT expecting to get sold the second time around, but I think it reflects a lot on his character how if you aren't entertaining he genuinely thinks the best thing for you is to sell you off to the s*x industry, showing how that's all he really thinks of you. I'm eagerly waiting for the 2nd chapter just for Cirrus! :3
(I love all the cast equally, but Cirrus has my whole heart and is the one I believe is written the best!)
While it took me far, far longer than I had intended to get all of the routes.. I can say without a shadow of a doubt, I love OBSCURA.
Even though we only get a small glimpse of it, the world seems very interesting. I enjoyed the little bits of lore that we get here and there from both Vesper and other characters around the market. And, Vesper's plight is actually quite fascinating. I feel terrible for them, and even without the varied and wonderful Love Interests, I would still want to see how the story ends for Vesper. (Yes, I am one of the big fans for Vesper. They are very charming for a player character!) Plus, the very different paths and endings we can get with each character were a hell of a lot of fun! The writing for every character was just absolutely amazing (not to mention the beautiful art that we've been treated to!)
SPOILER WARNING
The Love Interests are certainly the biggest draw, however. Each route has very fun and enthralling storylines, even for taking place in a relatively short time-frame.
Now, I started with Oleander.
I freaking adore Oleander. He ended up being probably my favorite of the Love Interests. He's charming, he's witty... he's a murderer, and he absolutely plays the part of the Gadfly well.
Excluding the endings where Vesper's downfall is their own fault (to an extent), even Oleander's bad end was actually quite gentle.
He's not a good person in many ways, but he really has a kind side to him. The scenes where he takes Vesper to the tea house — and where I first got to know Griff, who was hilarious by the way — and the dance scene at the party were just... beautiful. I think the dance scene took my breath away.
As an aside, I really liked that his story is very intertwined with Keir's. But I am a little worried as to where things are going to go between them.
Next up, Francesco! The boy, the cutie. Light of my life, apple of my eye. He's just about tied with Oleander for a favorite.
I just don't exactly... trust him. While Oleander's bad sides were pretty obvious, Francesco not so much.
Yes, he definitely has a problem where he wants to get into some not so great things and he kind of puts himself into bad situations... but there is definitely more than meets the eye when it comes to him (or is there? He really could just be naïve and sweet. I just have a feeling he's not entirely that)
I have to admit, I sobbed during the bad endings we could get before going into the club. I was outraged.
In general, Francesco is kind of a mess but it's very charming. I just want to hold him and protect him from the marketplace... and from himself, a little bit. He's really trying to get into some heavy stuff, and as someone who had gone through a bit of a phase trying some -cough- similar things, I can say it may not be worth it in the long-run. But that just means that I hope we can protect him and help him when the time comes.
Keir was my next choice.
He is sassy. I loved it. I loved the banter.
He also had a very tough shell to get through. Of course, because he's a thief who is doing his best to keep his home and friends safe and cared for, it's pretty understandable. It also makes a lot of sense that he only starts to open up to Vesper if we manage to be more open to the life he leads.
I loved the touch of having to be more friendly with his thief pals to lead into his good ending.
There were definitely higher stakes in his route. I appreciated that we got a little taste of what his job entails, and it was actually quite terrifying when we had to deal with the guard. As someone with social anxiety and a mistrust for people in a place of power, it made me very uncomfortable and the bad end with most of the group was very disheartening.
I would say, however, his storyline is the most compelling in the sense of trying to help people on top of fixing Vesper's dilemma. I really hope there is a happy ending there, because I actually am scared for the future of Mouse Hole.
Cirrus' route is the most recent route for me and... wow.
He is beautiful, but he is scary and kind of The Absolute Worst ™
I had a vague sense of what we were getting into when starting his route, but he is actually quite a cold character in many ways.
Between selling off Vesper when he gets bored of them, or just straight up orchestrating their death... He's awful xD I got angry during those endings. It's actually a little scary that a man like him is in a place of power like a priest. He really can (and, I assume, does) hurt people under the guise of helping them. A true sadist. I only hope that some of what he does really does end up helping those who seek him out.
I can't say I'm not a masochist in a sense, but he does go overboard (and I don't mean the flogging scene, just in general... even if I had mixed feelings on how he went about the punishment because the consent felt dubious even with Vesper obeying and being more open to him). And yet, it makes me wish to see where his and Vesper's romance will lead in the best ending.
I won't entirely hold my breath, but I hope to see him soften a little bit and maybe become a slightly better person. (But hey, even if he doesn't, he is very nice to look at and the scary personality is fun to deal with.
Edit: I know this comment is a few days old, but I did want to add that I think the writing for Cirrus is fantastic, and I hope no one thought that I meant otherwise. It is rare that a character/story makes me become actually angry. I think he is truly a fascinating character.)
And this got a bit long... Sorry, this review got a little away from me.
Thank you all for working so hard on this gorgeous visual novel. From the writers, artists, and the person behind the music, everyone did a fabulous job. I am very much looking forward to chapter 2 and all subsequent chapters!
Only just started and I already love this game so much. I love otome visual novels but my biggest pet peeve is when we're given a variety of options that change nothing about the paths we takes, and only change the ending. I love how in this game, every choice leads us to a different path with new experiences. Instead of having to go over the same paths over and over a again, while guessing different combos in hopes that something changes, we get and entirely new story every time. It doesn't just add to the replay but it actually makes replaying the game ENJOYABLE. nothing but 10s around the board.
SPOILER WARNING but if i had a critique to add, I wish Cirrus didn't have that one ending. think it makes sense to have his character be utterly heartless, but I think selling us off as an indentured servant instead of a... you know know what would've given the same bite of disappointment and reality shock w/o making him irredeemable.
Either way I'm gonna pretend like that ending doesn't exist, and quietly simp for him because im a delulu masochist. *shrug*
This is the first game I downloaded and played in itch.io. But damn. I regret doing that. This game is too good it made every other game lackluster. From the visual art, the character designs, the dialogues, and the main character? This is easily the best among its kind. It gave me a lot of wtf moments, the good kind of shock, especially since my very first ending was Cirrus' worst ending. I hate that guy and that made me love the game so much more. I'll be waiting for the next chapters to come, so thanks for the fun Rotten Raccoons ;>
Francesco and Oleander are both found in the same scene from the "Leave" choice, since they're attending the same party. The only choice that decides if you go to Oleander or Francesco is if you go towards the laughing crowd, or the wealthy stranger.
wow. hate to say that I really like Cirrus. Hes a bastard- don't get me wrong- but I think his character is very interesting- poor MC though, they don't deserve that.
Is anyone else kinda disgusted by Cirrus? I played the whole thing and got all the endings and Cirrus’s worst ending really left a bad taste ( I wouldn’t say it ruined the rest of the game but it sat in my head). Damn if that one was just different I’d also love him like the other characters. I liked his design the most but now I can’t see him the same sob,,
Mc deserved better grahhh
Despite that, the rest of the game is amazing, spent like 7 hours completing it. And seeing Francesco sad is so heartbreaking omg </3
Loving the game so far. The art is beautiful, and the audio design is so good, I feel like I'm there. Only done Keir's route for now, but I'm already invested. Probably gonna try Cirrus next.
SPOILERS - I have just one very little complaint: I wish I could refuse to toast with the team after the mission, because I'm still super pissed at Keir. Would be nice to have an option to simply leave the bar and go to Keir's home instead of celebrating with them.
This was AMAZING !! I just spent an all-nighter playing through all the routes and I must say I am thoroughly impressed with every single aspect of the game. The art is subdued and simple but it goes supremely well with the ambiance, the sound design has some very very nice moments, and the writing is absolutely exquisite. The MC in particular is among the best, if not the best MC I've ever had the pleasure of playing in similar games. Though the inner monologue is well done, the dialogues in particular are just my brand of wit and maturity.
Will be highly recommending this to everyone who'll lend me their ears, and will play the next episode as soon as it releases. Please keep giving this project your love and care raccoons, because I truly believe you have a cult classic in the making here !
i absolutely loved the darker feel of this game, i've been itching for something like this for so long! francesco is my darling, i want to wreck that man but also cuddle the life out of him. he's just so adorable.
can't wait for future chapters and gods please tell me we get to dom cirrus at some point bc as a dom myself his route wasn't doing it for me but GOD do i want to tug on that pretty hair thank you.
guys anyone got a good ending with Cirrus since i followed the guide yet i end up in the same spot in the back of the church , maybe it will be available in the upcoming chapters since it seems achieving 3 point won't be enough for him lmao considering his personality , no harms in my words .
[DISCLAIMER: MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS BUT ITS PURPOSE IS FOR GUIDANCE}
It may be a late response but if u still desire assistance, here r my guidelines you, Firstly I obeyed Cirrus` s older and chose the option of {lustful} or something along the line and enjoyed the prayer.
Now the next day, confront Cirrus` when you walk in on him forcefully ordering a man to end his own life. And allow Cirrus to punish you. Then the next set of orders when you` ve gained consciousness feel open to request what you desire from him but I advice you to choose the hug and disclude the option, where you requiring space. After that the dialogue continues, and you'll successfully achieve the ending (*Promise: I will keep you safe.*) I hope this was a helpful ^^.
my heart fluttered when he said he would keep me safe lmao , thank you so much , tbh i played this game like maybe months ago and i remember the trauma from me being killed by him or his mobs so i read the guide this week and when i reached the church section i immediately closed it off saying there's no happy ending with him so it maybe my mistake since i didn't follow the guide properly lmao but i'm really happy , thank you a lot dear !!! i'm waiting for the next chapters but i would probably be out of my country by then gahhhh ( sobbb) ....

Bro actually put that as the file name
I was just looking around, and as soon as I downloaded the game, I got myself hooked and immersed in the story. all about it is just immaculate. I love the "main character"'s personality, plus the interactions with others are fluid and seem not forced or superficial. Thank you all for your work, and give us a chance to enjoy your creation with us
OMG your logo looks like Rambley ( or maybe is the other way around idk) so cute lol.
FRANCESCO IS SO CUTE I CAN'T!!
the art is stunning, the music was so enjoyable and of course, the story kept my attention and had me wanting more! my fav is absolutely Cirrus. i love me a hot, red flag lol looking forward to chapter 2!
this is so cool! i love the character designs, endings and cgs. on my first play, i got the best ending with cirrus (we are locked in now) and enjoyed it a lot! amazing work, devs :))
wow. genuinely, the safeword/aftercare feature is wonderful. i got a bit overwhelmed by a scene and decided to use it, and the sweet dialogue w/ the protagonist actually made me cry a little. it's such a rare feature in games, but so very well done and much appreciated by me. lots of love to the devs/writers.
I'm so down bad for Oleander... The hair, the outfit, the banter, the TOUCHES!!! I hate that it felt so short, but I seriously cannot wait for more.

I played the game on Steam but holy hell I love it so much. I am struggling to pick a favorite. My first run I got a bad ending for Cirrus (I ran away, ifykyk) but I went back and got the good end because I like him that much, lol. I really like the way the stories between all 4 people meld! Cirrus seems separate for now, but I am sure that will not be the case in the full game. I truly cannot pick a favorite, I love all of them for separate reasons.
Francesco my baby!! why is he so cute?!

I absolutely love that everyone in the comments are down bad for Cirrus (I am too lmao)
Scrolling further down the comments... It seems there's alot of mixed opinions about Cirrus lol (I love his morally grey ass) (He's the reddest flag i've ever seen) (I'm colour blind so it doesn't matter)

How do i get the good ending of Cirrus? I keep getting the bored ending despite following the guides.. 😞😞
TYSMM!!!! ILL TRY IT
omdfinsnvh LIFE SAVER, THANKS SO MUCH I FINALLY GOT HIS ENDING TYTYTY😍😍😍😍🥹
is this game still being worked on?
yup! if you look at their round-ups you'll see their progress!!
i loved everything about this demo. the storyline, the characters, the ambience...!!!!! plus there is the 'aftercare' option which i think was very thoughtful. cirrus my beloved ♡

(Link to entire playlist here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLlN8vAkzsnt0UH2rqB-VAgk5ZaHc9y85i ... sans the little extra thing, I still gotta go back and get a couple of good endings again)

does anyone know how to start the francesco route? i'm in the prolouge and none of the options i choose start his route 😭
in the crowd scene, leaving just takes me to oleander's route
Francesco and Oleander are both found in the same scene from the "Leave" choice, since they're attending the same party. The only choice that decides if you go to Oleander or Francesco is if you go towards the laughing crowd, or the wealthy stranger.
OHH thank you so much!
Woah, Cirrus is disgusting. I'm sold.
RIGHT?? SAME
wow. hate to say that I really like Cirrus. Hes a bastard- don't get me wrong- but I think his character is very interesting- poor MC though, they don't deserve that.
Cirrus' worst end made my mouth FALL OPEN IN SHOCK WTF BRO
Is anyone else kinda disgusted by Cirrus? I played the whole thing and got all the endings and Cirrus’s worst ending really left a bad taste ( I wouldn’t say it ruined the rest of the game but it sat in my head). Damn if that one was just different I’d also love him like the other characters. I liked his design the most but now I can’t see him the same sob,,
Mc deserved better grahhh
Despite that, the rest of the game is amazing, spent like 7 hours completing it. And seeing Francesco sad is so heartbreaking omg </3
same. tbh that kind of actually ruined the game for me and i lost interest in the rest of the characters
I liked it personally and I think it's great when games don't shy away from dark themes.
I also like games who dont shy away from dark themes. Still, tastes can be different nontheless
Loving the game so far. The art is beautiful, and the audio design is so good, I feel like I'm there. Only done Keir's route for now, but I'm already invested. Probably gonna try Cirrus next.
SPOILERS - I have just one very little complaint: I wish I could refuse to toast with the team after the mission, because I'm still super pissed at Keir. Would be nice to have an option to simply leave the bar and go to Keir's home instead of celebrating with them.
Please!! Add this one, I was so upset at them >:( even if it is skipping the toast, and the scene continues
This was AMAZING !! I just spent an all-nighter playing through all the routes and I must say I am thoroughly impressed with every single aspect of the game. The art is subdued and simple but it goes supremely well with the ambiance, the sound design has some very very nice moments, and the writing is absolutely exquisite. The MC in particular is among the best, if not the best MC I've ever had the pleasure of playing in similar games. Though the inner monologue is well done, the dialogues in particular are just my brand of wit and maturity.
Will be highly recommending this to everyone who'll lend me their ears, and will play the next episode as soon as it releases. Please keep giving this project your love and care raccoons, because I truly believe you have a cult classic in the making here !
i absolutely loved the darker feel of this game, i've been itching for something like this for so long! francesco is my darling, i want to wreck that man but also cuddle the life out of him. he's just so adorable.
can't wait for future chapters
and gods please tell me we get to dom cirrus at some point bc as a dom myself his route wasn't doing it for me but GOD do i want to tug on that pretty hair thank you.English to Spanish Translator here!
I'd like to translate the game if you are interested. Please contact me on lacristinaura.translator@gmail.com
guys anyone got a good ending with Cirrus since i followed the guide yet i end up in the same spot in the back of the church , maybe it will be available in the upcoming chapters since it seems achieving 3 point won't be enough for him lmao considering his personality , no harms in my words .
I got all of his endings, guide worked for me for ending "He will protect you", if that what you asking.
thank you !
[DISCLAIMER: MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS BUT ITS PURPOSE IS FOR GUIDANCE}
It may be a late response but if u still desire assistance, here r my guidelines you, Firstly I obeyed Cirrus` s older and chose the option of {lustful} or something along the line and enjoyed the prayer.
Now the next day, confront Cirrus` when you walk in on him forcefully ordering a man to end his own life. And allow Cirrus to punish you. Then the next set of orders when you` ve gained consciousness feel open to request what you desire from him but I advice you to choose the hug and disclude the option, where you requiring space. After that the dialogue continues, and you'll successfully achieve the ending (*Promise: I will keep you safe.*) I hope this was a helpful ^^.
my heart fluttered when he said he would keep me safe lmao , thank you so much , tbh i played this game like maybe months ago and i remember the trauma from me being killed by him or his mobs so i read the guide this week and when i reached the church section i immediately closed it off saying there's no happy ending with him so it maybe my mistake since i didn't follow the guide properly lmao but i'm really happy , thank you a lot dear !!! i'm waiting for the next chapters but i would probably be out of my country by then gahhhh ( sobbb) ....
