Overview
Shadows of the Ascendant is a choice-based adult visual novel from FrontierGames, a two-person indie team, set over five tense days on a secluded island. You play Eve, a member of a sect, who is called to the sect’s heart: a remote island completely cut off from the rest of the world. Her Primarch has summoned her to the main branch for reasons nobody will explain, and she soon finds out that something much bigger than politics is brewing there.
A supernatural force lies dormant beneath the island, and the sect has been experimenting with powers far beyond what its members understand. As that force stirs awake, it tempts the inhabitants and lets some of them unlock otherworldly abilities. Eve is dropped into a murder mystery, a ruthless power struggle, and a growing wave of temptation, with dark secrets and shifting alliances around every corner. The question is where you stand: will you help Eve keep the chaos in check, sit back and watch it play out, or push it along and see what happens?
