About this game

Pry into the hearts of monsters and people in this bleak monster-taming RPG.

The world is dying.

As Josef, a young man drawn into the depths of the Void, you must descend into a decaying abyss to confront the monstrous force draining all life from the world. Armed with the ability to pry into the hearts of monsters, you'll recruit powerful allies by uncovering their fears, desires, and convictions—not through force alone, but through understanding.

Every soul has a story. Every choice has consequences. Explore a branching narrative shaped by difficult moral dilemmas that challenge both Josef's beliefs and your own. In a world where few are purely good or evil, how far are you willing to go to reach the bottom of the Void?

FEATURES
