About This Game

Lost in the Fire is a dark gothic psychological thriller visual novel about memory, guilt, desire, and the terrible things that survive inside a burned house.

Fifteen years after the Ashborne Lodge fire, Adrian Vale receives an invitation with no sender, no explanation, and a message that should not exist:

The fire didn't take you. It saved you for later.

Drawn back to the ruined mountain lodge where his childhood ended, Adrian finds himself trapped with several women connected to the tragedy in different ways. Each of them carries a secret. Each of them remembers a different version of the night the fire began. And somewhere beneath the burned halls of Ashborne Lodge, something is waiting for the final door to open.

Explore a haunted gothic lodge filled with ash, broken memories, hidden rooms, forbidden rituals, and supernatural echoes of the past. Follow Adrian as he uncovers the truth behind the locked door, the lost child, the Ember Covenant, and the role he may have played in the night that destroyed everything.

Your choices shape how characters respond to Adrian, what they remember, and how close they allow him to get. Trust, desire, guilt, fear, and obsession all leave marks. Some characters may comfort him. Some may accuse him. Some may lead him deeper into the fire.
