Where Winter Crows Go
About
While this game doesn't contain any nudity/on-screen sex/NSFW content, it is recommended for an 18+ audience, especially considering both the MC and Crowe are in their early adulthood (between 22 to 34 years old), so player discretion is advised. Think of it like an R-rated movie.
If you are sensitive to certain materials, PLEASE be sure to read the TRIGGER WARNINGS and reconsider if this game is for you.
Note: Where Winter Crows Go is a horror-mystery visual novel with elements of thriller and/or romance depending on the choices you make. The character you can romance is a man called Crowe.
❄ ❄ ❄ STORYNeeding a break from your usual routine, you decide to take a one-week holiday trip to Frostpeak, a town famous for its ski resorts. Unfortunately, on the way there, your car breaks down and you have no choice but to walk to the nearest place available... an isolated log cabin in the middle of the woods.
The cabin turns out to be the home of an environmental researcher who's studying partial migration among other things .
Will you stay with him or risk finding another place in the freezing weather?

❄ ❄ ❄It's been a while since I did any games as a solo dev so this was made as a test to experiment with some writing exercises and see how I managed to make something by myself with a few constraints to boost my creativity.
If you like my writing, please consider supporting me with a donation to this game or a Ko-Fi. It helps more than you think since I write game scripts during my free time (hopefully one day I'll be able to work as a game writer full-time). Thank you!
