Redwood is one of the most prestigious schools in the nation-- once, it served as a private school for the rich and famous, hidden deep away in the forest, away from public eye-- but was soon opened to all enrolling students (if they could pay the tuition fees.) The new school year is beginning, and Redwood's Headmaster states that he's got an announcement to make. During this announcement, one of the empty classrooms is set on fire-- with five students trapped inside. The story follows a few characters' attempts to solve the mystery of the classroom fire, as well as the other mysteries that spring up along the way. This is the first chapter of four planned before the story is complete. Rise and Fall contains graphic images and scenes (murder scenes, body discoveries, etc.) as well as strong language/profanity. Recommended 16+, but play at your own consent.

To Kill A Black Swan
Marcel Weyers • Home Page
A short murder mystery visual novel about a detective, a yoga course attendant, a grieving wife, an obsessed cleaner, a “bro”, and a bitchy friend. To Kill A Black Swan is not your average whodunit, nothing is as it seems to be, it is all about superficiality (and beneath the surface it has an important message to tell.) TKABS was created for the 2014 Indie Game Development Contest and is available for free. The title is inspired by To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee, but it is an original story.

Rat Happening
foreverapril • Home Page
Rat Happening is a short visual novelish interactive story about premonition, waiting, and random(?) encounters. And rats. In our daily lives, we are surrounded with stories. Yet we brush against them, cast them a sideways glance and hurry on past. In the safety of our homes, we can speculate about a fragment of a story we saw in the street, but when we actually get a chance to become part of it we often elect to remain bystanders. And even if we do get involved, we never get to witness the story from beginning to end. Rat Happening will not tell you the entire story, nor will it put you in the center of the stage. But it will give you a chance to relive the moment. Maybe changing your path can somehow affect what is happening and help you decide what to make of it.

Golden Game Barn • Home Page
This the full first episode of Regeria Hope. Regeria Hope is a Visual Novel where you play as a female lawyer who can prove her clients innocent of crimes they did not commit, similar to the Phoenix Wright series of games. It is an episodic game, and new game play styles will be available as new episodes become available, and the choices you make will affect later episodes. There are plans to include a jury in later episodes, so you must appease jury members to have your client pronounced innocent, and to include ways to increase the replay value of trials by having your decisions in previous trials affect future trials in meaningful ways. The first trial has you defending a husband whose wife has been poisoned during the wedding reception. Currently you have the ability to interrupt witnesses and other characters while they are speaking, but be careful, as you have a time limit to solve the case! Featuring Art by Maesketch (Check her out at http://maesketch.deviantart.com/or http://hazakurain.tumblr.com/art ) Featuring sound production of voices by A. C. Menes. More information on her school of music can be found here. Regeria is voiced by May Low. Artemis is voiced by April-Ann Tass.

Burn the bridges:chapter 1 is a visual novel...my first one kind of complete. It is a novel about two young transfer students with a troubled but hopefully interesting past,trying to turn a new leaf in their lives. I prefer visual novels with lot's of choices, so there will be routes. The first branching will happen when you will pick with which main character you want to play, the guy or the gal.However after that I hope to have a computer club route, a library route, a HEMA fencing route(pretty unique if you ask me), a form your own club route and a hidden mystery route. Personally my favourites so far are the fencing and mystery routes, so that is why so far those are the most fleshed out ones in my head. Most of the choices however will be hiding a hidden skill system. Also one of the skills unlocks all routes, while the others unlock only one route. This choice is however useless later in the game(unless I decide otherwise). I am only sorry that I forgot to at least display the skills at the end since right now they don't do anything... As for the romantic relationships, I plan to make it like this depending on the routes and their subroutes, some routes will have several romantic interests: -boy pursues girl -girl pursues boy -girl pursues girl So far in the first chapter I have done this: -the introduction of the settings,main characters(also the choice of which one of them you will play) -the introduction of the homeroom teacher,however his character design is a placeholder.

A small village cut off from the rest of the world, Phada, spends its days slowly, idling away time by speaking with one another, eating with one another, and dedicating all their attention to studying scripture. With a population of only 145, the governing body of the town is the Group, the name of the miniscule clergy that inhabits the church at the top of the hill. They worship a protective God comprised of two halves: the "Barrier" defensive energy and the "Expulsive" offensive energy. In a town where all you can do is socialize, young Mercy is denied this. Since birth, she has seen the unseen, and was taken in by the Group after losing her parents. Upon turning 10 her vision seemingly became corrupt, causing panic among the villagers. It was decided by the Head Priest and the Holy Woman that the only way to deal with this curse is to aggressively apply the "antibiotics." In other words, isolate Mercy until she stops seeing things. Now an empty shell of who she once was, 15 year old Mercy attends school and is constantly bullied by her classmates, some truly afraid of her, but most seeing her as an easy target. The sudden death of the 25th Holy Woman startles the village, causing many to believe Mercy's curse is spreading and for her abuse to become more aggressive. Then, one day, the Head Priest reveals God has given them two young Holy Women rather than one. When classes end the next day, one calls out to Mercy. "I can see it, too."

Death Roulette focuses on ten students from Maria St. Claire Institute, all of whom are graduating from high school. Everything seems normal at first... until a strange "link" is uncovered. Conspiracy theories circulate around an incident the previous academic year, when a mass murder occurs at Sacred Heart Village. One by one, a student is killed each month, and the mastermind is never unmasked. To top it off, one of MSCI's alumna is involved, but even she is proven innocent... or is she? Come one morning, and the students of MSCI find out that even they have been compromised: someone is re-enacting the Sacred Heart Murders through a long-running game of deadly roulette. This time, they have a chance of unmasking the culprit, but how many lives will the effort cost? The time has started, and the game is on. Besides, what interest is there?

You just found out you have to completely rewrite it, and you only have 8 days to do so! Impossible? Not if you have your own characters by your side - but will you be able to satisfy their weird demands? In “The Deadline,” a Visual Novel developed by NDE Visual, a team of Italian writers, publishers, and artists, you will take on the role of Ramfis, a wannabe writer in his twenties with a mess of a life, and you'll have the chance (and duty) to rewrite his novel according to your choices. But to do so, you’ll have to face the judgement... of your own characters! Are you ready to endure Scott's annoying blabbering, Dee Dee's terrifying threats, Barry's disgusting jokes, and Elizabeth's witty banter? And in the end, will you be able to write a novel that pleases everyone? If you ever, at least once in your life, thought about writing a novel, "The Deadline" will let you realize your dreams! As Ramfis, you will live through the joys and sorrows, hopes and frustrations of a young writer in the grip of his own characters, subjected to their tribulations and ambitions.
