About Frostshade
Frostshade is an adult visual novel made by Moonlit Games with Ren'Py and 3D rendered artwork. You play Zane, a male assassin working as a Reaper in a divided, dystopian 2138. After saving a young girl, he must guard her across a harsh wasteland while facing his history. The story leans on adventure, fantasy, and dystopian settings, mixing dark humor with a noir tone. It is story-focused, slow-burning, and includes violence and eventual sexual content rather than explicit scenes at the start.
The game remains in development, with the latest build v0.6, dated June 21, 2024. It runs on Windows, Linux, and Android, is written in English, and is uncensored. This update adds roughly 6,500 words and 220 images for Chapter 10, whose title is stylized with numbers and letters. The release notes also clarify that the selection screen uses A for ten, since hexadecimal notation is used.
Developer's description
In a dystopian 2138, assassin Zane navigates a divided world as a Reaper, a gun for hire. When his intervention saves an innocent girl, he's compelled to protect her on a perilous journey through a post-apocalyptic wasteland. As Zane confronts his own past, the odyssey unravels themes of redemption, sacrifice, and unexpected bonds, set against a backdrop of stark contrasts and dark humor in the raw noir of the Frostshade Chronicles. DISCLAIMER Just a heads up about Frostshade: it's an adult visual novel with a strong focus on the story. There's some violence and there will be sex (very soon), but it's not a porn game. Since it's mainly a novel, you might dislike the story, the characters, the writing style, or maybe all of them, and that's fine. I just wanted to avoid any disappointment as the story is a slow burn. No sex right from the beginning. If that's your thing, there are plenty of great games like that on F95.
