About this game
Expanded Edition Released The full game is available on its own store page. The Expanded Edition with new content is available! About the Game You wake in a collapsing tower with no memory. The only other person here—a silver-tongued mage named Ilar—claims to be saving your life through a desperate ritual. Yet, their story keeps changing and you keep dying. This is Chronicles of Taldun: the Remainder, a dark fantasy visual novel where death is not the end—it's how you learn the truth. Play as Vyn, a High Magus trapped with Ilar in a tower that's tearing itself apart. Each death reveals another fragment of memory, another piece of the mystery. Were you colleagues? Lovers? Enemies? The deeper you dig, the less certain you become, and the more you realize Ilar may not be trying to save you at all. Read between the lines. Explore for clues. Use hands-on deduction to break the vicious circle and set them both free. What Awaits You: 172,000 words of bittersweet psychological horror (8-40 hours) Over 500 choices , some more regrettable than others. 50+ false endings and 3 true endings —dying teaches you how to live Multiple romance paths with a nonbinary love interest (optional, fully avoidable) Death-loop narrative structure where every playthrough reveals new layers RPGFan Games of the Year 2022 - Editor's Choice Award 96%+ Positive user reviews "Bittersweet, hopeful, and utterly poignant...
