Harrowed World: What's Past Is Portents - Gothic Vampire Visual Novel
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
ABOUT THE GAME
Step into a dark and unforgiving world where vampires pull the strings of humanity. You are not the hero, you are not the villain, you are nothing but a pawn in schemes that you cannot even begin to understand.
You are Isaac Ambrose, an altar boy at the quaint local church.
Your curiosity gets the better of you as you come across something that will change the course of your life forever.
Some things are better left secret, kept hidden away from prying eyes. What awaits you behind the veil is a world far more intricate and unsettling than you’d ever dared conceive.


- Voice in the Darkness: Experience the thrilling voice acting as Isaac retells the experience from his childhood.
- Isaac's Story Duration: A single playthrough should take around 15 minutes but it is designed to be played multiple times.
- Vampiric Lore: Uncover the canon ending and multiple alternative game over endings as you unravel captivating layers of lore.
- Prelude to Portents: Be introduced to Isaac Ambrose and a insidious faction of undead from ‘Harrowed World: Portents In Red’, an upcoming modern gothic vampire RPG.
- Dark Allure: Elegantly presented in an interactive gothic style visual novel format.
- Bonus Systems: Explore the Internal Achievements and Lexicon Systems.
- Supported: Controller Support (partially tested) and Mac and Linux Support (untested).
- More To Come: ‘Isaac’s Story’ is the first narrative in an anthology of vampiric tales, with future stories as DLC (wishlist on Steam - not available with itch.io version).
A dark and twisted version of our world where supernatural creatures hide among humanity. Vampires, magical folk, and other beings compete for power and influence through secret societies, corporate power, and religious sects.
Harrowed World takes creatures of myth and folklore reimagining them as concealed predators and tricksters. This vision of the world is dystopian and bleak with both human and inhuman horrors, but most people are blissfully ignorant of the dark forces at work around them.
Harrowed World is the shared setting and franchise of a growing number of video games and (soon) books, combing elements of gothic horror, adventure, dystopian fiction, drama, science fiction, Lovecraftian horror, and urban fantasy. Experience Harrowed World from a variety of perspectives from the prowling vampire to the monster hunting Beholder.
