About the Game

ABOUT THIS GAME

The road to Nocturne Hollow was never supposed to be found.

When a cryptic message connected to your missing sister leads you beyond an unnatural wall of fog, a violent crash leaves you stranded at Hollow Veil—an isolated mansion where memories fade, truths shift, and every inhabitant seems to know more about your arrival than they are willing to reveal.

The current build contains the complete opening and Episode One of Nocturne Hollow.

During Episode One, players can explore the currently available areas of Hollow Veil, uncover memory fragments and supernatural clues, make relationship and story choices, and begin the introductory character paths for Lucian, Evelyn, and Damien.
