The Story of Sin
[This story is set in the Demo Paranormal universe. You don't necessarily need to read it to understand SoS, but I would recommend it.]
You are the spawn of Satan and The Devil.
You have always given them problems; not obeying them and doing your own thing for the 25 years you’ve been ‘alive’. They finally had enough of your insolent ways and, as punishment, put you into a coma. When you are finally released from the magically induced sleep, though, you decide you’ve had enough of Hell and your parents. You decide to defy them once again, and just like always... they aren’t exactly too happy about that. This leads them to decide to punish you one last time- only, this time, the punishment is deadly.
This interactive fiction has...
-Customizable player character
-4 ROs
-Be who you want to be
-Try to be good, or be completely unhinged <3
-Try to live as a human, even though you are not.
-Get up to no good with your friends
-Live through unimaginable pain and suffering <3
-Get back at your abusive parents by living your life
-Learn what memes are.
Romantic Options...
Will Winters [Male] 28 years old
INFO- Will has been taught how to deal with demons by his father- that is to say, he’s an exorcist. He’s kind, but usually tries to hide his emotions behind sarcasm and laughter. He lived in New Orleans for most of his life, before he decided to move to NYC after his father suggested he go and help his Uncle out with the catholic church he owns.
Anya Zonova [Female] 25 years old
INFO- Anya moved from Plyos, Russia, to the US when she was 15 due to some traumatic events she doesn’t like to talk about. She can see and talk with spirits, and usually attracts them, despite her best efforts not to. She’s quiet, usually trying not to stand out. She likes to read and write, instead of interacting with people [Living or dead].
Murmur [Nonbinary] ??? Years old
INFO- Murmur is a Duke of Hell, meaning they are pretty highly ranked. But they don't want power anymore, and if they were honest with themself, they would admit that they never wanted power to begin with. They love learning, obtaining knowledge of different things, and they love interacting with humans. They are rather kind for a demon, but don't try to take advantage of them, or else.
Daniel "Dani" [Genderfluid] ??? Years old
INFO- Dani is a 'Watcher', meaning they are an angel that often comes to Earth to watch over humans. Their time on Earth has opened their eyes to a lot of the questionable things their father and siblings inflict on human beings. They are rather naïve, but very loyal. They might seem a bit disinterested in you at first, but give them a chance to open up and you might be surprised at their level of devotion to you.

Okay so spoilers ahead
Okay so first on the description it says and I quote "You can try to be good or completely unhinged." But surprise there's no such thing, the ROs are passable but it kinda gets ruined since absolutely EVERY FUCKING ONE treats you like you are made of glass, the only one who's passable is Anya and only because at most she's a door mat lines it wouldn't really even matter if she was on the game or not she just exist to say a couple of likes and that is AND to add the final touch of this mess even tho you are the children of Satan and the devil you can't be evil because the MC is a wimpy bitch who loves humanity and defeats the whole Amnesiac's protagonist who can be the same person or someone different, which takes me back to the whole good or unhinged thing you can't be unhinged on this bitch because it goes against what the MC believes in aka there's no option for it, same with either using your powers or doing the succ to the souls without someone Deus Ex Machina into the scene and stopping them and like you can Deus Ex someone on a scene but not every SINGLE time!
Unless the author tried to say by unhinged is just be kinda of a dick to the ROs... Which to be honest it's so lame that I wouldn't even call it be a dick, like for example "Ugh I'm mad! Grr don't talk to me/don't care what you say!" Or "keeps quiet." But I must give credit where credit is due it was very fucking funny when the angel Twink tried to be all white knight like and we just "... Okay."
But the thing that killed my interest is like you have a high angel going after your ass alright? So tell me why in the seven circles of fucking fuck we are going to a FUCKING amusement park ARE THEY FUCKING STUPID!? WE SHOULD BE TRAVELING YESTERDAY! NOT GOING TO A FUCKING IDIOTIC AMUSEMENT PARK YOU IDIOTS!
But I can see the intension behind that shit it's just a shoehorned way for us to interact with your preferred RO since they didn't thought of a more organic way to integrate it, like after traveling through half the state stop a gas station and... Fucking I don't know make the MC hear some whispers and make one of the ROs go with them have their moment and not make them see as completely stupid idiots
I may come a little harsh... But I'll never be someone who Yes man's everything they read 2/10
Being "a little harsh" about something still in development and completely free is wild, but you do you I guess. 🤷🏻♀️
Loved the update!
Spoilers ahead
I'm confused as to y Sabrina doesn't just throw holy water or something to verify whether Will possessed or not? 🤔
In SoS' universe, there are multiple stages of possession. The first stage is just the demon kind of "influencing" a human's thoughts. The second stage is partial possession, where the demon periodically "takes over" the human's actions as well. Then the final stage, which is full possession - the human has no control at this stage and the demon is completely "inside" them. Sabrina thinks Sin is the demon possessing him, but since she can see Sin, it means that they're only influencing him - only at stage 1. This means the holy water wouldn't affect anything... 👀
I rly love this, it's a compelling story! I did want to say that the stat system has only changed by 2 bars no !after the choice, in one stat (friendly) and I'm on chapter 6...
Hey, I'm glad you like the story so far! The personality stats aren't working atm, I'm still trying to figure out the best way to implement them. Hopefully, they'll be up and changing based on your choices in next month's update; otherwise, they won't be done until the full game releases. Thanks for reading!
I absolutely loved it. I never quite play interactive fiction games of this sort, i usually get sick of it real fast but I binged nine chapters in just a single day which is quite impressive, all of the love interests are really well written which it hard for me to choose just who i want to romance first, however; though this might be a bug on my part.. Though I did have multiple save points, none of them loaded the next day and so I have to restart from the beginning:( I wonder if this is because I’m playing on browser? But from my knowledge there’s no way to download it.. Anyways! This was a VERY fun game and I really hope it won’t be discontinued<3
When it doesn't save I save to my files on my phone
I'm glad you liked it!! ☺️ I'm not sure what's going on with your saves though- the saves work just fine on my pc and phone. 😔 I would try and use the 'save to disk' option... that saves your game onto your pc. Then, when you want to load, choose 'load from disk' and open the file you saved. That should instantly get you back to the saved spot. ☺️ If that still doesn't work, let me know and I can take a much deeper look into my game to see if there's some small error on my part somewhere haha
This game won't be discontinued, don't worry! 💜
so, I was playing chapter eleven— Amazing IF by the way, it was intriguing! I REALLY liked Will, was romancing him.
I was too afraid to flirt with multiple people at once tho— So I didn’t flirt with Murmur at all, yet it said I was in the Ferris wheel with him not just Will. I don’t know if this helps, thank you, can’t wait for more! :D
so glad you're enjoying it so far!! And thank you for letting me know!! I think I know what is wrong and will be fixing it up for next update. 😊
!!!SPOILER FOR CHAPTER 10!!!
-black smoke coming off his broad shoulders in wisps as he says, “You’re going to pay for what you did to Murmur-”
aaaaaaaAAAAAHHHHHH?!?!?!?! dearest author??? what happened to my murmur??! what did az do to my murmur??! sobbing shaking screaming biting azrael's ankle-
Heehee 🤭 you'll find out next chapter!!
I love this so much but that cliffhanger hurts. I can't wait to have more interaction with Dani
I love cliffhangers when I'm the one who knows what comes next. 😂 And there will be more interactions with Dani coming up, I promise!! Thanks for reading!!
You cannot end chapter ten the way that ypu did. It was getting so good that I didn't want it to end, and I can't wait for the next chapter. I basically read the entire thing in one setting.
Heehee 🤭 I'll get the next chapter out as soon as I can. 🫡
Thanks for reading!!
Loved the update as always!
Why can't we save the game?
You can. There's a slight bug with the menu button in the mobile version where it's super dark against a black background. If you poke around in the upper right corner, you should be able to get to the menu!!
oh thxz ^^
No problem! ☺️
GOD DAMNIT I READ THE UPDATE TOO FAST. NOOOOOOO
are the Shy/Bold and Emotional/Stoic meters supposed to change at all? They don't seem to move no matter what choices I make during the game. Also there's a few choices that I feel move the wrong meter (usually a choice that I interpret as shy moving the antagonistic meter, eg being shy and touch averse when introducing myself makes me more antagonistic).
[ SPOILERS BEYOND THIS POINT ]
When you teleport after the confrontation at the hotel, there is a broken variable that just says "$place" that I assume was supposed to have the name of the place you teleported to. In case its needed, I picked the basement bc I figured my mc has trauma from that and wouldn't be able to avoid it in the moment.
I've been slowly figuring the stats out, so they don't actually work right now lmao!! Once I figure them out, I'll be combing through the story and changing things up. I might add more touch-adverse options as well, as I know that there aren't a lot of those right now. 🤔
And thanks for letting me know!! That was exactly the reason I put that option there!! 😁
AHH yeah ok that makes a lot of sense, glad I wasnt just hallucinating the bars not moving then :P
Soo, I love this and well- Ahem- let's just say that I did crush a little bird that was passing by- But I have no idea how to save?? (In mobile), I think that I've already saved the game once, but-
heehee 🤭 and I don't know why but I think that when some people play the mobile version, the UI looks a little weird or something? There's supposed to be a little icon with 3 dashes up in the right corner next to the title. You just press that and the menu should drop down. Then, there are 3 little icons that are the restart, save, and settings. Please let me know if it doesn't work though!! ☺️
omg you aren't bothering me at all!! I wonder why it looks so dark on your phone, though...? Mine turns white. 😭
I'll have to look into the CSS code or something. I'm glad you like the story so far though!!
Thanksthanks You're So kinddskdb :"))
I know this is like 5 days later but I think the light mode is messed up because the "3 dots" show up black instead of white. That's why it looks so dark. Since it's black on black.
Hmm... I don't know. When I turn it to light mode, it still turns out white for me.
I even tried changing to light mode on the entire website [because I use dark mode usually] and it still turned out white for me. 😭 I've combed through the CSS, and I have no idea what's going on with it.
Uaaaah, this story is so good 😍 I love the RO's and Cameo as bird, I'm so happy I didn't hurt him. You did an amazing job and I'm looking forward to more ♥️
Loved the new chapter and cannot wait for more!
Found a broken variable, i used a save from previous version if that matters.
Save:https://pixeldrain.com/u/guLCnaKh
P.S.
Should i keep adding save likes this? Always worried that pixeldrain looks slightly suspicious.
I think you have to restart a new save from the beginning, unfortunately. But I'll double-check the coding when I get home from work. I changed up the gender/pronoun variables a bit, and thought I fixed them all but I might have missed some! But thank you for letting me know!!
And pixeldrain is fine 🙂
Hiii! Love the story so far! However, on mobile, i can't close the menu after opening it idk if its cause im blind and am just not tapping the right area, but anytips would be appreciated cause i had to reset the game lololol
Hello!! I'm glad you're liking it so far!! 😊 and there are no back buttons or anything so its a little confusing, but if you tap on the little menu icon again it should close. Let me know if it still doesn't though!
The game is very good and I can't wait for the next update.
Also, I found a small bug in the text of the next chapter button in this scene.
I'm glad you are liking it so far!! 😊
And thank you for letting me know
