NOTE: ROOTWOVEN is only on start of it's journey. We're developing the game with support of community. Your messages, game time and input allows us to make the game we dream about. Thank you for support and understanding. We hope our transparency through the whole development, will give you as much joy as we have. We're starting Kickstarter soon, join us early to get access to new content first! ROOTWOVEN is a dark-fantasy mystery visual novel built around natural-language investigation. Instead of choosing from a fixed dialogue menu, you type what you actually want to ask, accuse, hide, confess, or provoke. At the Academy, every conversation is a thread. Pull the right one and secrets loosen. Pull the wrong one and people close ranks. You are not chatting into a void. ROOTWOVEN’s world is hand-authored: its characters, clues, loyalties, quests, and consequences are built to react to the way you investigate. Trust is earned. Suspicion spreads. What you learn — and what you reveal — changes how the story moves around you. INVESTIGATE IN YOUR OWN WORDS Question characters naturally instead of clicking pre-written lines. Press for detail. Test contradictions. Change the subject. Deflect. Charm. Threaten. Confess. Stay silent when silence is smarter. REACTIVE CHARACTERS, NOT DIALOGUE DISPENSERS The people around you remember what you ask, what you hide, how you push, and whether they should trust you. Relationships can deepen, fracture, or curdle into rivalry and fear. A MYSTERY YOU UNRAVEL, NOT JUST WATCH Follow rumors, buried histories, private griefs, and dangerous loyalties through a story shaped by discovery and consequence. The truth is there — but not everyone wants you to reach it. ROMANCE IS POSSIBLE, NEVER REQUIRED Every major relationship can shift in its own direction. Friendship, dependence, rivalry, desire, resentment, devotion: how close you become is part of the story, not a side menu. A HAND-AUTHORED DESCENT THROUGH ONE SCHOOL YEAR From your first evening at the Academy to the choices that define your ending, ROOTWOVEN follows one long descent through secrecy, ritual, intimacy, and becoming.
