Hey, PixelsLab! Just to let you know. I've found a boo-boo in the text. After having sex with the mom in her memories, the MC calls her by the name I gave to the youngest daughter instead of by the name I gave her. Just thought you'd like to know. Great game! Keep up the good work!

Interesting update. As usual very well written. I, like most here, am greedy and want more (so much more! :) ) It's kind of spoilery to ask but

Woow... I thought Inanna was just a name, chosen by the creator of the game at random... Well, it seems that Wikipedia really knows something about an ancient Mesopotamian goddess named Inanna (or Ishtar)...

Ironically, you included dozens and dozens of links but didn't link to her article itself.


I did not include anything intentionally .. I simply copied/posted a part of the article .. just as it was written there..

I've been playing it for some time now and i'm at the end 'for the 5th time'...it has a great story with strong and captivating characters and don't get me started on Alice , she is so fascinating, efficient and brave for someone who is a total fun-size.
The story is not even a little bit boring at all and the fiction gets more and more engrossing with precise and detailed dialogues when it is presented with really good renders, i'm totally drowned in it. It is truly a masterpiece and one of the best AVNs in here.

Olivia is a gem here, and there is no way in hell she believes mc ran away from problems, she isn't that shallow of a character nor does that suites her, i get it sometimes temper gets better of her. I am getting a feeling that it's just writers attempt of deceiving a player.

Here:
The Goddess Chant, common to many modern Neopagans.
Isis, Astarte, Diana,
Hecate, Demeter, Kali,
Inanna!

Asherah was the Hebrew version until they went mono (after the Babylonian Exile where they were influenced by Zoroastrianism). That's also when Satan was reinterpreted as the Enemy of God.
