About Shards of Chaos

Shards.



“They call me Rain without knowing my real name. Rainstorm is my only salvation.
In this shattered world, where I have no friends or enemies... All I have to do is complete my contract and return — to find the one who's waiting for me.”


This is her only path: to willingly fall into the trap, in order to find and protect Lellia — at the behest of the contract given by an ancient Temple.
Shards of destinies, endlessly intertwining threads of time; cycles that painfully replace each other... Reflections in the eyes, scarlet — a color that outshines the hesitant flame.

These tests of fate will challenge you to figure out the traitor, protect Lellia, unravel the mystery of the magical catastrophe and the cycles of the “Modern Hell”.

A World Abandoned by the Gods.



The action takes place in the abandoned estate of the Order called “Black Rose”. A magical catastrophe has crushed the manor, spreading death to all nearby lands, turning people into “Shadows”. Rain will have to plunge into this cursed place, encountering a mad adventuress and a dragon-girl from the “Hel'” clan; in the darkness.

The dramatic story will unfold piece by piece, adding up to the overall picture of the dark mansion, reacting to your actions. Secrets, betrayals, a Railway beyond Space and Time...
You'll go all this way with Rain. And it depends only on you — whether you can solve all the mysteries in time, solve everything without bloodshed... Or whether, on the contrary, you'll follow the scarlet path.

The Path.


  • A non-linear plot that can change depending on your choices.
Build logic chains, decide: whether it's worth the risk, and what approach to choose for one or another character...
  • A dramatic story, not a dating sim.
“Nothing to worry about... If my blade turns out to be the slower”. Feelings, logic and characters will be matter in this story.
  • The world will not wait while you think about your actions.
A complex system that includes “TDA” moments, time-limited choices, and free-exploration moments — will allow you to experience the world of the visual novel as a living world, not just as the pages of a book.

Not recommended Nov 30, 2024
The dialogue makes me feel like I'm having an aneurysm. Why is it written so weirdly? Why within the first 30 minutes are there like 10 time jumps and in between different dimensions and stuff, what the hell is happening?

[h1]Strange, chaotic, so interesting VN[/h1] [b]If you like narratively standard VNs, approach with care. If you like unorthodox, strange narratives that blow your mind, highly recommended.[/b] Review written after having played 7h30m of the game, reaching the end. [b]Gameplay:[/b] Shards of Chaos is not your regular Visual Novel. All the elements are there, but they're not disposed in the same way as linear narrative ones, including those with branching narrative and multiple endings. This VN is something different. Actually I'm going to give you zero spoilers or hints about what's the story about or what the MC tries to accomplish. That's something for you to discover. Because this is one of those cases where the less you know, the more you enjoy. I have to admit that I love narrative games, but VNs are far from being my favourite form of game narrative; unless the subject interests me. Shards of Chaos grasped my interest quickly, not only for its story but for its structure and original elements. The game shows soon that it's not an usual VN. I'm going to list now what set this apart from other VNs: [list] [*] Time jumps, uncontrolled, sometimes returning to previous sc…

A flawed gem: esoteric and highly fragmented, but supremely evocative.
