Enjoy everyday life while solving a murder mystery in Rainy Woods - known as the "happiest town in the world" - in this all-new "Debt Repayment RPG"!
Journey to Rainy Woods... a small town in Northern England surrounded by forests. Nestled in abundant nature, stone houses built in the Middle Ages still stand beside one another. The townspeople look out for each other, love their families, work hard, and enjoy nightly drinks at the local pubs. At first glance, it looks like just another normal country town, but the townspeople all say the same thing... "This is the happiest town in the world." "We're the happiest people on the planet." They don't talk about why they are so happy, or how they know that they're the happiest in the world, but they seem to really believe what they say. As an étrangère, players feel both alienated yet strangely comfortable. An RPG-style town filled with fun activities and fascinating people... Our twisting, mysterious story will have you captivated... Make friends, solve mysteries, and become emotionally invested! We're sure you'll never be able to forget this town, even though it's in the middle of nowhere!

Omensight is an action role-playing game framed as an action murder mystery. The player takes the role of the Harbinger, a warrior who appears only in times of great crisis, and uses a power that allows her to relive a single fateful day over and over. Combat is fast and built around a light attack, a heavy attack, a dodge, and a jump, with additional special abilities and the aid of a companion character. The mystery is unravelled by replaying events and joining forces with different allies rather than by sifting through evidence directly. It is set in the same world as Stories: The Path of Destinies, of which it is the successor.
