Crimson Prison is a fantasy Ren'Py adult visual novel adventure by Dajimess, presented with animated 3DCG art. The story follows a homeless girl abducted in Sumairu-Urbem and thrown into Nuevo Faredo’s Underground Prison, where inmates fight to the death. You play a retired mentor tasked with teaching her to control new energies, keeping her alive through early combat, and uncovering a path to freedom while confronting corruption among the prisoners.
The current build is v0.1.7.1, released October 7, 2026, and development is ongoing. It runs on Windows, Linux, Android, and Mac, with English and Spanish language support and no censorship. The update adds 8,000 words, 750 CG images, one main quest with subquests, and two NSFW Remembrance events featuring Zinnia and Sienna. It also introduces a Meditation-based Extra/Remembrance Quests system, bed-cell meditation access, tutorials, new audio, an optional completion survey, a Patreon-only Bounty Hunter skin for Erika, stronger item and quest systems, removed sleeping HUD, and bug fixes.
Developer's description
One fateful day, in a remote alley of Sumairu-Urbem, a homeless girl is kidnapped and sent to an Underground Prison for death matches... Nuevo Faredo's Prison.
Your mission —as a retired mentor— is to train her in using her
new energies
and protect her so she does not die in her first fight, while searching for a way to secure her freedom.
Hundreds of inmates are brought in every year, and hundreds more are left forgotten beneath the cold earth.
Will you be able to protect her while strengthening your party to root out the evil that plagues the inmates' hearts?
I believe in your judgment.
