Rising Hope

Rising Hope is an 18+ adult fantasy visual novel that combines cinematic storytelling, free-roam exploration, romance, comedy and turn-based combat; the first public demo gives players an early look at the prologue and why fans of character-driven narratives might want to try it. You take the role of a cynical, magic-less wanderer stranded in a strange world alongside companions like Lyra, Petra, Belle and Cecelia, making choices that affect relationships, combat outcomes and story paths while encountering mature themes and suggestive scenes.
