Description

This otome-style visual novel blends eeriness and romance into a compelling drama. A ring of deadly towers traps you in the small mining town of Bataille, Missouri with extreme conspiracy theorists, a serial killer, and wealthy vampires. Choose your partner wisely. Will you choose Liam: the adopted, cheerful misfit of the rich Bataille family? Maddy: a strong-willed woman eager to overthrow the oppressive authorities? Julian: the older Bataille brother who aims to rule the town with mysterious powers? Or August: a charming philosophy professor who might also be a serial killer? Each character branch reveals unique secrets about Bataille and a chance to find love.

History

Crimson Spires will be the eighth title made by Woodsy Studio. Developed in UE4, it blends the traditional visual novel style with segments of first-person world exploration. Romance plays an important part in the story. As Erika investigates the disappearance of two town inhabitants, the story will branch into unique paths depending on the character she grows closest to. Meanwhile she must navigate an environment full of secrets and terrors. The design of the 3D environments is heavily influenced by PS2 era horror games.

Features

  • Unlock four distinct romances and story paths in an epic script totalling 250,000+ words
  • Hear select scenes with a rich cast of English voice actors
  • Embrace your nostalgia for early horror games with an eerie, retro 3D environment
  • Explore select 3D interiors
  • Listen to a lengthy, dynamic soundtrack by developer and composer Jenny Gibbons
