Do you believe in gods? In monsters? In ghosts?
17 years ago, a boy met a monster.
The Inn Between is a BL fantasy romance visual novel following Myka Riley and his life long search to recover his missing memories after an accident as a child left him in the care of his aunt with no recollection of who he was, or what happened to his family.
One phone call, and his life will change forever. Myka's journey to recover his identity leads him down a unknown and mystical path, revealing a world he never could have imagined existed - a world far removed from the one he knows, filled with gods, ghosts, and creatures only thought myth.
Can Myka navigate his new reality? As his new relationships bloom, will he succeed in his quest for identity? Or will the forces of an ancient fate claim a long sought victory?
With three romanceable characters, Myka will encounter and grow his connections to those around him.

Gorgeous character after gorgeous character, The Inn Between contains over 20 incredible characters, many of which you can meet in our extended demo!
Myka Riley - The protagonist
A mythology nerd with an obsessive love of cats and a deep fear of ghosts. Myka carries a sketch pad full of creatures no one else could see (a likely cause of his aversion to the unseen, if he's honest with himself).
He seeks answers to his missing memories, and to reclaim his long lost family.
Did we mention he really loves cats?
Leonardo "Leon" Addy - Childhood Friend
A human of considerable awkwardness, Leon has known Myka for many years. The two of them attending school together since they were children, their studies at university seeing them become roommates and close friends.
A lover of antiquing and games Leon enjoys nothing more than a simple night in with his treasured friend.
Unfortunately for Leon, he happens to be strongly allergic to Myka's favourite thing in the world. Cats.
Emrys - The Cat God
A mysterious resident of The Inn, the cat god Emrys takes great pride in his feline ears and tail. More willing to flirt than answer questions this kitty is the cause of both frustration and curiosity to Myka.
He cares deeply for the inn and its inhabitants and will do anything to protect it.
Emrys has a talent for cooking and much to Myka's distress possesses an intense dislike for clothing.
Solas - The Fallen God
A fallen god. Dangerous and unpredictable. Solas has taken a deep interest in Myka. For what reason, is known only to himself.
A being once known for his pure spirit and affinity for nature, now he faces a deep well of darkness within.
For all his secrecy and solitude Solas appears to have formed an unlikely 'connection' with Leon. Whether the pair like it or not.
