About the Game

Orphan: A Life on Your Own Terms


Orphan is a raw and unflinching life simulator that throws you into the shoes of a teenager facing a difficult family life. Navigate the emotional rollercoaster of a fractured home while juggling the pressures of school, friendships, and carving your own path in the world.

Your Story, Your Choices:


  • Survival at Home: Manage a tense family dynamic. Earn trust, avoid conflict, or forge your own independence – but be prepared for the consequences.
  • School Daze: Attend classes, study for exams, build relationships with teachers and classmates. Will you be the studious type, the class clown, or something entirely different?
  • Digital Escape: Dive into the world of online gaming and social media. Find solace and connection, explore your creativity, but be wary of neglecting your real-life responsibilities.
  • Streetwise Savvy: The streets offer opportunities and dangers in equal measure. Forge friendships, find odd jobs, or navigate the darker side of town at your own risk.

Every Decision Shapes Your Destiny:


  • Emotional Well-being: Your choices impact your character's mental state. Manage stress, build resilience, and find healthy ways to cope with the challenges you face.
  • Life Skills: Learn to cook, clean, manage your finances – every skill becomes crucial for navigating life as an Orphan.
  • Defining Who You Are: Explore your individuality through hobbies, interests, and the relationships you build. Will you be a beacon of hope, a cunning survivor, or something else entirely?

Orphan is a non-judgmental exploration of a complex reality. There are no easy answers, but your resourcefulness, resilience, and the choices you make will determine how you survive (and maybe even thrive) in a world that doesn't always feel like it has your back.

Are you ready to face the challenges and carve your own path?
