So, after some research. I came to a conclusion that I'll play this game (as well as many others) in my own way - I'll go down a virgin path (avoid all 18+ content). Cause you bastards ain't robbing me of my free will.
I think its 100% possible to go virgin but you will miss ALOT of the content if you go that path i believe?

Could someone tell me how to begin with the slave path?
To start the path you can't be a werewolf or a noble. Then you must have talked to Gaspar in the slums once, and finally you must find him again in the "Spider's Nest" a tavern with an illegal gambling site downstairs (Gaspar will introduce you to it when you talk). Once you go downstairs, you must join the blackjack table and play the "special 1 vs 1" challenge and lose enough times.

Maybe this question sounds repetitive but I'm new to this game and I don't know how to get the mouse transformation, can someone tell me where I can get it or how to get it?

I am glad you can get back to Highrock again to get more scenes, but where is Highrock on the map if you wanna get back in there?

EDIT: Nevermind, found it. You have to go through the area where you can find the orc.

I have played this game before but due to the length of it wanted to play portable on mobile with jioplay but it seems it's limited to the executive file for installation rather than a normal folder with RPGM games. Any workaround?
Update:
(To play on Android)

1. I was able to follow this extremely sketchy looking tutorial but can guarantee it's legit

(If you have access to PC you can also just extract it on PC and then transfer to mobile and run joiplay, I just wanted a pure android method)

2. After the setup has extracted, just run JoiPlay, it will automatically install the appropriate RTP (select Default)

so far it has been working good, will let you guys know if I encounter an issue. Amazing what Android is able to accomplish.

I really wanted to try this game but after downloading it, all I get is "Missing this" and "Unable to find that" messages. Not sure what it is about this game and giving trouble where no other game has but I had to give up because I do not no these files or where they go when I think I found them.

In the opening page there is an "instruction" section, but basically you have to download and install some extra files to make the game work (link):



The idea is that these files are common to most VX Ace games, and installing them separately can make the download for multiple games smaller.

Thank you very much for this help.

Can you increase you INT, Will Power, and Inhibition?
You can increase intelligence and willpower in a few ways (for example, studying in the library can raise INT, and training your body at the Bazaar will raise WIL, after you max out the HP bonus), but it's on the slow side. Inhibitions can only go down, instead.

Here you go:


This is the link I had in the announcement post, (I have no idea what's the policy for the links, or why the guys handling the re-uploads don't add it to the list).

mdqp Not right away have I realized, that you are the creator of the TOTDC. Damn, I played this game soo long ago, didn't get to finish it, but still, it was a blast.

Moving to the point, I'm making my first (that's actually not 100% true, but it was too long ago and too short-lived to count :D) semi-second attempt at Caliross, and I must admit, that I'm pretty overwhelmed. Any general pointers on what to focus at the beginning?

Glad to hear you liked TOTDC! My next game (after Caliross) is actually going to be the sequel (I'll make it using Ren'py). Hopefully it will be a good follow up.

Anyway, as for Caliross, it depends on what you want out of the game.

If you are trying to find sexy scenes, the jobs are a good place to start (if you go to the commercial district, there are a number of boards, and one of them lists a good chunk of the available jobs, as well as some point of interests). The jobs are spread around a number of locations (the inn, the bakery, the casino/strip club, to name a few), so you'll need to explore a bit. Working a few days here and there will also help you get some starting money if you want to join the guilds (see below).

Generally speaking, you'll want low inhibitions to get access to most scenes, but you can also see the hypnotist at the circus (outside of the starting city), which can give you early access to some traits (fetishes) which unlock extra scenes and help you ignore inhibitions requirements at times, or drink a bit at the various bars/pubs/whatever if you are too shy (drinking lowers inhibitions temporarily, but if you get drunk you might trigger a random scene, instead).

If you are interested in progressing the story and/or explore the world, you can just go to sleep and after the first day, you'll get a visit as you try to exit your house. From there, the main story leaves you a trail to follow which should make your progress straightforward.

If you are interested in seeing some long-term interactions with the factions you can join (or which manipulate/mind control you into joining), you'll want to check out the guilds (both have quests, and sometimes your alliances will play a role in what happens and what you can do in them). Being part of a guild is also necessary if you want to see the noble path. Both guilds are located in the commercial district.

There is a lot to do, and a lot of characters you can meet, so in the end you'll have to explore on your own, if you want to check everything out.

I have looked all over but I cannot seem to find the library. Where is it?

Right now, you can only use the mage guild library (the one in the basement, which you can access if you are a member), but more of them should be added in the future. Well, technically you can also get one in your mansion if you become a noble, but you probably aren't there yet.
