About the Game

Wh- What if we save the day together in the superhero dating sim 😳

Yesterday, you were broke with no prospects. Today, you've found gainful employment in a superhero agency.

Herotome is an immersive romance visual novel. Play as a fledgling hero to find love and build a reputation befitting a big-time heroic superstar, or use your gift of gab to be very, very annoying on purpose.

✦  FALL IN LOVE ✦

Your new coworkers can't wait to meet you. Form a special bond - romantic or platonic - and watch your special someone react with expressive emotion in real-time.

✦  BE YOURSELF ✦

Amuse, confuse, or dismay the people around you. Your dialogue choices can range unhinged gremlin to sweet as a kitten. Of course, questionable actions may have consequences...

✦  SAVE THE WORLD? ✦

Perhaps everyone will watch in awe as you carve a path towards glory. Or perhaps ruin calls your name.

The demo currently features:

1 brand new chatroom mechanic.

3 romantic scenes with Warden, Griffin, or Mia.

12 animated CGs.

90,000 words of content that include 350+ dialogue choice trees.

✦ Note: Dart and Jade will be late game routes that aren't immediately available; the game nonetheless features numerous scenes for you to get to know and interact with them.
