[Full Demo Release] Indie Detective VN Mirage Noir
(discuss.tchncs.de)
Mirage Noir is a detective VN focused on found family, inspired by games like Ace Attorney and Bustafellows.
Story (quoted from the Steam page):
Play as a detective, solve cases, and try to catch an elusive serial killer in this mystery visual novel focused on found family (inspired by games like Ace Attorney and Bustafellows)
When Yunie graduated from college, she believed she had her whole life ahead of her. Returning to her hometown with a shiny new dream job, it seemed like nothing could stand in her way.
However, two years later, not much has changed. She hasn't made any new friends, isn't allowed to investigate anything worthwhile, and feels like she's stuck in mud, moving in place.
So when an unexpected opportunity arises, she doesn't hesitate to take it. The case is a weird one, but it introduces her to an eccentric team of people she immediately connects with, and she decides that no matter what, she won't regret getting involved.
Even if it means crossing paths with a serial killer.
Full game coming in 2026! The demo covers the entirety of the prologue.
They'll also be running a Kickstarter from Oct 22 - Nov 21

Rules

Please stay on-topic: post about otome games. Otome games are romance games aimed at women who want to romance men. For the purposes of this community, games with female love interests (LIs) count as long as it isn't mostly female LIs: men should be at least half of the LI options. Note that you do not have to be a straight woman to post: people outside the target demographic play too, and you are welcome here. Amare games will be allowed given how small the community on the Fediverse is for it, and how they overlap with otome, but if the community starts to overwhelmingly have non-otome amare posts I reserve the right to change this rule and redirect those posts to a new amare community.
-
In an effort to keep this community more discussion-based, please only post fanart and the like if you made the art yourself. Your own fanart, cosplays, etc. are very welcome.
-
Don’t be a jerk.
- No bigotry or discrimination. This includes but is not limited to homophobia, racism, sexism, etc.
- Be respectful of other peoples’ tastes. You may absolutely despise an LI and want to discuss it, and that’s fine. Casting negative aspersions on or directly insulting people who love that LI is not fine. What we find interesting in fiction does not always directly translate to real-life desires.
-
Please don’t directly link to pirated content.
-
Tag any NSFW content as such. If you are not sure whether to tag it that way, err on the side of caution and tag.
-
Please indicate spoilers. The following format works on both Lemmy and Kbin, but if you are using an app it may not. See this comment for which apps handle spoilers. Note that spoilers in post bodies will just show the text in the preview if you link the post in, say, Discord, instead of spoiling it.

Something else that happened at the end of the game! 7. When advertising something you have worked on (think your own otome review website, or an otome game you have worked on), please use common sense for what is spammy. If there's about four new posts here weekly, don't post a progress update weekly—we don't want self-promotion overwhelming the community. But finding new otome creators is cool, so do post them here every once in awhile! I reserve the right to change this rule to be more specific about what exactly counts as spammy and what does not, but I feel I'll know it when I see it and trust most posters to operate in good faith.

Our backup community is !otomegames@lemmy.zip.
Q: Why is this needed?
A: TL;DR: We have had to start over a lot due to instances dying.
- First, otome on Lemmy/Mbin started with Kbin, at
[!otomegames@kbin.social](/c/otomegames@kbin.social), which went down when kbin.social had federation issues and eventually went down. - Then we moved to
[!otomegames@kbin.run](/c/otomegames@kbin.run), which went down when kbin.run unexpectedly vanished. - So we moved again to !otomegames@ani.social, where we can hopefully stay. If not, we jump to…
- !otomegames@lemmy.zip.
