Demon Contract
The deal is already sealed — the only question is whether you read the fine print. The demon is polite, patient, and in no rush: time is on his side.
World is ready — start right away. Each move costs 1 ₽, first ten free.
What is this world
The gloomy city of Arkham, 1929, the era of Prohibition and jazz speakeasies. Magic here is an illegal commodity, and demons trade souls through law firms. Having signed a contract without reading it, you must now repay your debt not with money, but with years of your life.
At stake: Ignis gave you exactly three days to make the first payment, and tonight is the last evening. Margot has just found a way to escape, but it requires breaking into the archive of the demonic chancellery, where Silas is waiting for you.
Who awaits you here
Everyone has their own interest in you. Their attitude shifts based on your actions, and you can see it on a scale right in the game.
Cold, polite, meticulous bureaucrat who never raises his voice, but his smile makes your blood run cold
Wants from you: Demands the first installment — 10 years of your life, otherwise he will take your soul entirely
Tired but tenacious, with surgical precision in words and gestures, cynical but not without compassion
Wants from you: Wants you to help her find an ancient grimoire that will break your contract — in exchange for protection from Ignis
Silent as a shadow, with predatory grace, his gaze clings to details, and he never lets a debtor slip away
Wants from you: Waits for you to slip up — so he can take your soul with interest
Where it all begins
Margot Harrow — The back room of the Black Bone club reeks of cheap cigarette smoke and the dampness of basement walls. The single lamp under a green shade pulls from the darkness a table cluttered with papers and Margot's face — pale, with dark circles under her eyes. She traces her finger over a yellowed map spread across the contracts.
The creak of floorboards behind the door. Someone is walking down the hallway. Heavy, measured steps — they're in no hurry, they know there's nowhere to run.
Margot — lifts her head, lights a match with a trembling hand, lights a cigarette That's Silas. Hear his tread? He's like a dog that's already caught the scent of blood. We have less than an hour before he thinks to search the storage room. exhales smoke, squinting through it Are you coming with me to the archive, or do you prefer to face the demon here, without witnesses?

How it works
No pre-written answer options. Speak, act, ask — the world accepts what you state as fact and adapts. Actions can be marked with asterisks.
Each character has a scale from −100 to 100. It shifts based on deeds, not polite words, and is visible directly in the game. The world keeps a list of facts that cannot be forgotten: promises, debts, secrets, enemies.
Characters act without your command: they demand, lie, leave, and return. From time to time, a twist occurs that changes the situation. The story is saved — you can return a week later and continue from the same point.
How is this different from character chat:
In the chat, you're talking to a single character, and everything hinges on the conversation. Here, it's a whole world: multiple characters with their own interests in each other, a setting, time of day, and events that happen independently of you. You're not a conversation partner, but a participant in the story.
