Sacrarium Pario

Another betrayal was unsurprising in your life, but you never expected the consequences to be like this.

Sacrarium Pario is a short visual novel that focuses on the interactions between a down on their luck mercenary (name and pronouns customizable) and the living gods they were always taught to be wary of.

That mercenary expected to die or be sold on the black market after being betrayed by a confidant. No one in their right might have anticipated the living god, Violo to take an interest in them. Now, each day is a matter of survival. Violo's fascination is infamously mercurial, and his eternal companion, Vivere, is not pleased with sharing his lover's attention. Death looms overhead.... but so does the threat of finding the men beneath the monsters. 

Will they survive? Will they escape? Will they stay?

That will be up to you.

The demo was made for Yandere Game Jam 2023.
