A Lonely Shrine
A downloadable visual novel for Windows, macOS, and Linux
In a shrine, a goddess dying from lack of faith and prayer.
In the same shrine, a simple cat that likes to sunbathe.
The goddess reflects on her long life and the state of the world outside her shrine. She is forced to ponder her own mortality; she becomes increasingly remorseful about her end.
The cat cleans itself; the wind is nice today.
Approximately 40-60 minute play time.
"The dialogue expertly captures the sense of ritual and reverence surrounding Ame-no-Murehime, the fading goddess of the shrine. The contrast between the goddess and the unimportant cat is brilliantly depicted, highlighting the waning power of the once-revered deity. The formal and stylized writing style adds depth, immersing the reader in the sacred atmosphere of the shrine."
