February 11, 1927. Brooklyn.
A boy named Billy Gaffney disappears from his apartment building. The case is real. The killer is real. The man who took him was real. But his purpose was from another plane of existence.

Omen Exitio: Hunger is a Lovecraftian investigative gamebook set in the darkest corners of 1927 New York. You are a journalist. The city needs you to find the truth. The truth needs you to go somewhere you cannot come back from.

Your Choices Shape the Case
Omen Exitio: Hunger is a gamebook, and every decision you make leaves a mark. You cannot be everywhere, and what you choose to pursue shapes not just the investigation but the story itself. Paths you ignored three scenes ago will close quietly, without warning.

As the investigation deepens it will pull you beyond the streets of New York, into dreams, other worlds, and the Lovecraftian mythology that underpins everything.

Multiple endings await, shaped by every choice you made and every one you did not.

Every Word Is a Clue. Every Silence, Too.
Not every witness wants to be found. Not every suspect will tell you the truth.

Talk to suspects and persons of interest, extract what they know, and persuade them to collaborate when they would rather not. New dialogue mechanics let you push, empathize, or apply pressure depending on who is sitting across from you and what the case demands.

What people say matters. What they choose not to say matters more.

Inside History
The events of Omen Exitio: Hunger are rooted in documented historical fact: real people, real places, real newspaper archives, all reconstructed with meticulous accuracy before being draped in cosmic horror. Every crack in the historical record is where something ancient and hungry waits.

To close the case you will need your skills as a reporter and your eye for detail. Move through cramped alleys, decaying buildings and the neighborhoods the famous Roaring Twenties never touched, and use everything you find.

The Crime Scene Doesn’t Lie. But It Doesn’t Volunteer Anything Either.

The investigation takes you beyond conversation and deduction. Certain locations demand a closer look: every object, every document, every detail that does not belong. The most important clue in a room is rarely the most obvious one. Train your eye, because what you notice and what you miss will both shape the case.

These are not puzzles to solve. They are moments where the case becomes physical and you will need to decide what to do with what you find. Your instincts as a reporter are the only tool you have, but some of those decisions cannot be undone.

The City That Does Not Forgive
This is not the glamorous New York of the Roaring Twenties. This is the other side of 1927: cramped neighborhoods, cold streets, decaying buildings that never made it into the history books.

Navigate the city from an interactive map, choose where to direct your investigation, and accept that you will not be able to go everywhere. Every decision about where to look is also a decision about what you are willing to leave in the dark.

Once Upon A Time…
You find yourself in a little, bleary portside town in the south-east of Phesoa. There, 36 years before the events of Tavern Talk, you dive into the role of the Tavernkeep, the owner of The Drowsy Dragon, a small quayside bar on the coast of Borkam.

You have a special ability, gifted by one of the Great Dragon Gods or acquired through wizardly hubris: Mixing magic drinks that can alter the fate of your guests—be it mean mercenaries, savvy sailors or ambitious adventurers. Every guest, no matter who they are, has a place in your warm tavern by the seaside.

In The Drowsy Dragon, fate is not written in the stars, it is written in the menu! Mix unique drinks from a wide ensemble of magical potions—but be aware: There is more than one solution!

As you listen to stories brimming with the spirit of adventure, you sit within the cozy walls of your tavern and pick up rumors to turn them into quests. Some of them are old sailor’s yarn, so sort them thoroughly before sticking them up the wall!

As you meet new and familiar faces, all seems well. Your establishment is flourishing and friendships are made. All until something starts brewing on the horizon, something that’s going to twist your brightest dreams into your darkest nightmares.

When the world is coming to an end, who would you want to speak to one last time?

In that final moment, if you could accompany souls wandering between life and death, what words would you choose to share with them?

Schrödinger’s Call gently unfolds a picture-book-like world.

It speaks softly to your heart, helping you notice what truly matters, once more.

Through the lingering regrets of others, we hope this story quietly shines a light on you too.

Story Overview
Twenty-one nanoseconds separate life from death.

The moon is about to fall, and only a moment remains before everything ends.

Mary wakes up in a strange room, her memories gone.

Guided by a mysterious cat named Hamlet, she becomes the “World’s Last Confidant.”

With a single phone by her side, Mary listens to the voices on the other end.

To the lives they lived, and the moments they left behind, just before the moon fell.

A Phone Call That Saves Souls
Phone calls left unfinished by the falling moon. Voices of those still trapped between life and death, waiting for someone to pick up the phone again.

Words left unsaid, feelings never realized, and the people they wished they could see one last time.
