No new features or anything this time around, the only change is:

ej!!! im about to buy fernweh book 1 after looking through it on your account, do you have any other IF recommendations? i read wayhaven chronicles due to your posts and it was 🫶🫶

hehehehe EXCELLENT >:D I LOVE FERNWEH!!! I absolutely have other recommendations!! >:3 I'll stick with completed games, as demos break my heart, but here are a few favourites!!

Fallen Hero Rebirth & Retribution: @fallenhero-rebirth - on steam, but also found on the app store. Start with Rebirth, then import your saves into Retribution to continue the story. One of the best written games out there, play as an ex-vigilante hero turned villain. Ortega is one of my favourite characters of any game okay

Blood Moon: @barbwritesstuff - okay so technically so the full game isn't out until June, but this remains one of my favourites. Werewolves, and just beautifully nuanced and fleshed out characters. play the demo, and get excited with me for the full release!

The Passenger: @the-passenger-if - horror, you're literally an eldritch horror being hunted by another horror. mind the content warnings, but this is a ROMP. again, wonderfully fleshed out characters, fall in love with Roach with us >:3

Blooming Panic: on twitch here! - a visual novel, but absolutely fantastic. it's free, and I recommend playing all the routes to unlock the true route - it's a love letter to fan communities and I love it.

Bad Ritual by @heart-forge- I've been following this for a long time, and it's also a romp, and wonderful. Unleash a demon and learn about the inherent prejudices of society. Siruud, beloved. <33

The Fog Knows Your Name - on the app store, I just finished this, and it was fun. Solve the mystery of an ex-friends death, and save the town!

Okay, so this should be a good start? ANYONE ELSE GOT RECS? >:3

#if recs #others that I'm in the process of playing: #andromeda 6 #first bite #when the night comes #all visual novels that have been recommended!

THE BALLAD OF DEVILS CREEK by @devilscreekballad Okay no jokes, i absolutely and genuinely hope the author of this IF gets to be in a better spot financially and health wise.

And finally, what might be the first twine if i ever played-

SCOUT by @anya-dev im crying. im scratching at the floorboards. im crawling on the walls. im barking in a cage. scout is such a fucking interesting post apoc story. the reason is unclear but at the time of the story it doesnt particularly matter. but at the same time it does so much. i want to know SO MUCH. Oliver was the fucking blueprint for my god damn brainrot.

Core Ideological Pillars

Siruud materializes in front of you in that disorienting magic way where it isn't a matter of smoke taking form or a flurry of sparkles, but instead of not being there he's just suddenly there. "Flyers," he orders, holding out his hand. "Say please," you needle, holding his coveted bundle of newspaper behind your back. "Please." The way he says it is more of a you can't be serious than a right, sorry, my mistake but potato, potato.

Happy February, Employee(s) of the Month !! This month we have a demonic Valentines Day, courtesy of your annoying pedantic roomie, Siruud the Devourer. Thank-you so much for your support and I hope you like it 💚🙏‍

[venteamocha]

Thanks so much for the IF recs! I'd absolutely take a second post of recommendations for Twine games too if you're willing to share! <3

Of course!!

I... actually like twine games better than cog based ones, in some ways, just because they tend to be fancier and prettier, and I am secretly a ferret in the body of a human and I love shinies. ADHD, baby!

I only actually know of like 12 twine games, so if there are any that anyone who sees this knows of that I didn’t list, feel free to let me know about them! There’s a chance I do know about them and just didn’t put them here, but I would rather hear one I already know of on the off chance that I’ll get a new one dropped in.

That said! Another list of games I really like that is again in no particular order!

They’re all on itch.io by the way! They tend to work better if you download them but most can be run in your browser and most are also mobile friendly so you can play them on your phone! I’ll note which ones are.

Scout: An Apocalypse Story: I love dystopia stories, I dearly wish we had more IF based in this kind of setting. Set in a wasteland that is trying to pull itself together with people trying to find out if other settlements are out there while also trying to, well, stay alive. I gotta say, I played only E’s route for a long, long time, but once I tried the other ones I haven’t really gone back. I still love E, you can pry the childhood friend trope out of my cold dead hands, but wow. Oliver. Wow. That dude has serious UST. And Sabine!! I’ve been forced out of my little “play it the same way every time” rut and I’m not sorry. I very much like that you can choose the intimacy level, as someone who’s ace. Sometimes I like reading the smut, sometimes I don’t. Options! (mobile friendly!)

Bad Ritual: I got it baaaaaaaaaad~ I do though, I love Siruud. I have terrible, terrible taste in men. I mentioned Dracula in the other list, and here there’s an actual demon. This is a game with *sass* and I always love a chance to be sassy. I think part of the reason I resonate so much with this one is because of how jaded retail has made me tbh but that’s another story.  Honestly, if you like dark settings, I recommend you play this one first of all my recommendations. It’s just such a good game and there are so many choices and even the pronoun choices are pretty varied.  It’s just good! (mobile friendly!)

Wayfarer: Another for the fantasy list! I love the worldbuilding in this one, and the character creator is just amazing. There are maps, there’s a codex, seriously if you love reading lore, this is definitely a game for you. This is like if Tolkien made an IF. It’s amazing. I’ve said that a few times but it’s true. In all honesty it might count as one that’s not so romance focused, since it does focus more on plot. If I could just sit down and make an IF, I’d want it to be like this tbh. With a beautiful framework, a well organized space of information for the players to just look at and see stuff about the world, a way to develop and build their own character in a clear cut way, and the game immediately tells you what stats are effected by what choices. I really enjoy it when games try to work in character creation in creative ways, but sometimes I just want to sit down and go, “Okay, my character has red hair, blue eyes, is short, and has a crippling phobia of lizards” and this game lets me do that. Well, except for the lizard part. (Not as mobile friendly as the others but I make it work!)

Love and Friendship: It’s a regency game and I love Pride and Prejudice. What can I say? Something about the massive amount of rules of society just gets me. Propriety! This is a game that has a set gender protagonist, female, and it actually is a bit different from the norm in that it has two female love interests and one male, when most of the time it’s the other way around. So that’s something. You can even have a platonic route with a fourth love interest, who is also male. There really aren’t enough platonic routes, but I understand why that is, since a lot of IF players are looking for romance. (mobile friendly!)

Exiled From Court: Also a bit of the same vibe simply because of how constrained everyone is by rules. Nobility, after all. There are a lot of love interests, and one is the MC’s sister’s husband, which is definitely gonna be scandalous. Will I do it? Will I? Eventually. I do like how you can act like an absolute hellion, well, as far as that goes considering. You can try to be a better person but that’s less fun, lol. (mobile friendly!)

A Tale of Crowns: This is literally one of the very first twine games I ever played. Really! It’s got a lot of wonderful intrigue and the setting is very fun. There aren’t a ton of fantasy middle eastern games, and this game is definitely one reason why we should have more. There’s a great deal of customization, and the love interests’ gender will changed based on your MC’s gender and sexuality combination. I like R & D best, and no that’s not a pun. I think. (mobile friendly!)

For the Crown: This is a different game, I swear, they just both happen to have crown in the title, lol. You get to play as an assassin, which is a great deal of fun. The lore in the game is very nice too. I tend to play with they/them pronouns though, and there were a few pronoun hiccups in the game. Seems to be an issue across all of the games made by this author, but I know how much of a pain variables can be so hopefully those will get squashed soon. There’s an explicit content choice in this one as well, and if you turn it on there is an “equipment” choice, so this is definitely gonna be spicy later on! (mobile friendly, but after each chapter the browser shifts as it auto saves. you just have to tap restore game to keep playing.)

-These games aren’t exactly twine games, but I’m putting them here because they’re visual novels that fit the IF format for the most part and are also on itch.io and I love them and for this post at least I will bend my own rules! They all have gender choice MCs and are nonbinary friendly.-

Perfumare: This game is actually being made into an IF, with the visual novel as a sort of preview of what we’re gonna get there. I literally cannot wait for that to happen, this game is so good as it is, and from what we’ve been told it’s only gonna get better. This game has an excellent world, the characters are all messy in the best ways, and ugh it has hurt me quite a bit, again in the best way.  It’s another one on the dark side of things. The powers in this game are just so fun, I dearly want a game set in this world where we can choose what powers we have! Maybe that will be in the IF, but I have a feeling the answer is no. We’ve been teased that there will be a second game with a different MC who will get to romance the characters we can’t in this one, and that alone is enough to get me to jump as soon as it drops. The love interests aren’t gender variable but there are two male ones and one female. I, a known mess, recommend Laurent for lots of repression and pain. (not mobile friendly, you gotta play on desktop/laptop)

Andromeda Six: I’ve recommended this one to pretty much everyone I know, it is such an excellent game. The cast is a mashup of misfits and makes me miss my Mass Effect crews. I specifically set my pronouns to she/her just so they’d all call me Princess. What can I say, I like it. There’s lots of pain, lots of drama, lots of world building, lots of interesting lore, and there is much breaking of cuties. Much. Can’t wait till we get to the next planet. The author has gone out of their way to say that each love interest is gonna get their own arc and will definitely get their own share of attention, so no matter who you pick you’ll have plenty of time to be with them and watch them shine. (not mobile friendly, gotta play on desktop/laptop)

When the Night Comes: Not only do you get to play a badass hunter but it has multiple poly routes! Multiple! It’s rare when you get one poly in a game, this one has three! You can also choose to romance any of them individually if you so choose. It’s dark fantasy gothic, and I really really like that. (not mobile friendly, gotta play on desktop/laptop)

Errant Kingdom: Made from the same dev as WTNC, this one is set in a more fantasy middle eastern setting. Very pretty, lots of intrigue. You can choose between three set protagonists, who can have three different storylines depending on your choices, which is very nice for replayability. It’s got two poly routes this time, and it works the same as their other game in that you can romance them individually if you’d rather be monogamous. (not mobile friendly, gotta play on desktop/laptop)

WIP: Bad Ritual (@heart-forge)

“𝙊𝙝, 𝙣𝙤, 𝙣𝙤, 𝙣𝙤. 𝙄’𝙢 𝙖𝙩𝙩𝙖𝙘𝙝𝙚𝙙 𝙩𝙤 𝙖 𝙙𝙚𝙢𝙤𝙣. 𝙒𝙤𝙧𝙨𝙩 𝙤𝙛 𝙖𝙡𝙡, 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙗𝙧𝙖𝙘𝙚𝙡𝙚𝙩 𝙞𝙨 𝙪𝙜𝙡𝙮 𝙖𝙨 𝙝𝙚𝙡𝙡”

Name: Ciara Blackwood

Pronouns: She/her

Age: 25

Sign: Gemini

Life Motto: “Only accept apologies in cash”

Biography:

Sometimes, Ciara wonders if she hadn’t missed her college orientation during high school then maybe she would’ve got a different career.

Anyway, now she works for Signetworks.

Does she love the job? No. Because it’s work – it just allows her to live. Besides, it doesn’t pay that well for a job that requires putting your life on the line daily. And she doubts that she will still be doing this at 35. That is: if she reaches 35, which is a big "IF".

Ciara tends to take risks. Her mocking attitude and tendency to do what she wants (even when clearly will have a bad result for her) don't help.

Despite being an outgoing person, Ciara has social phobia, so she avoids parties, concerts, or any other big event with a lot of concentration of people.

So she prefers to spend her weekends at home, reading books, searching for clothes at online thrift stores, and watching movies from decades past.

On the fateful day that she met Siruud, Ciara accepted death peacefully, making fun of her unfortunate situation. After all, she was at a disadvantage since he was clearly a powerful archdemon, so why would she waste her energy?

Remembering that makes her laugh now. Of course, her rational part reminds her all the time that Siruud is super dangerous. On the other hand, the badly typed messages, the help he gave her at the club, and every conversation with him, made her see him differently.

However, she wonders how long this will last. And what will happen once the ritual that binds them is broken.

Her hobbies involve: read, watch movies so old that the colors and sound are weird, buy clothes at online thrift stores, drink iced coffee, and not get hurt at hunts.

Bad Ritual by @heart-forge is great! Siruud OWNS my soul. And the author has other good games as well (all of them are WIPs rn)
