Demon Charmer is an adult Ren'Py visual novel by Darknerious, presented with animated 3D art. You play a person turned into a demon and sent to the past, where you look like a character from Demon Slayer and meet familiar figures. The story asks whether these people are real or imagined, then lets you survive by choosing a good path that protects humans and demons, or an evil path that dominates them. Its themes include fantasy, corruption, and harem.
Development is ongoing. Version v0.30 was released on June 5, 2026 for Windows, Linux, Mac, and Android in English, with no censorship. The latest update expands both routes: the good path adds Koharu and Yoriko, a main mission, new Kanao and Kie events, skills, and adult artwork; the evil path adds Mitsuri, a main mission, Zeniko events, and a Mitsuri outfit event, all with intimate scenes.
Developer's description
You finds yourself accidentally involved with a demon who turns you into a demon and sends you to the past. In that era, you discovers that you resemble a certain character from a popular series, '
Demon Slayer
.' Besides, you encounter other characters from that same series. Is it a hallucination or is it real, and these characters really existed? Also not everything is the same as in the series... Even with doubts you will try to survive at all costs, with the possibility to choose a path of good to help humans and demons or one of evil to subdue humans and demons.

CartRideIntoRukia'sFeet2026-05-14★★★★★
its alright Just your average Ren'py game with the twist being that the dudes are also girls now so thats neat. Scenes are decent but sometimes some body parts phase through each other awkwardly. It gives you a hint system…
radike332026-01-30★★★★★
Overall very solid parody game, Models are good, story is good, the only issue i have with the game is the fighting which sometimes crashes or bugs the game and fighting is too hard in some cases but both routes…
MidnightKing2024-09-06★★★★★
Review for v0.09 I think this is one of those rough gem games for me. I enjoy the core parts of it, but especially for a dev's second game I think there's a lot of edges that need some polishing…
