This visual novel contains explicit sexual scenes with full nudity depicted in an anime art style. These scenes occur as part of the story progression during regular gameplay.

About This Game

About the Game


Intended Parties is an Adult Romance Visual Novel about power, consent, and the cost of "doing good" at scale.

You play Lowell Vance, founder of Mariposa Family—the nation's most trusted "ethical" surrogacy agency. You are days away from a lucrative acquisition and a glossy relaunch when a buried medical warning resurfaces, a lawsuit tightens, and another carrier is flagged mid-protocol.

Three women step into your orbit at once. Choose who you face first, and discover whether romance can survive when the safest story in the room turns out to be the kindest lie.

Meet the Cast




Paloma Carrillo — The Doula
Paloma is Lucia Carrillo's older sister and a community doula who has spent her life keeping other women safe—only to watch her own sister be permanently harmed by Lowell's agency. She doesn't come for a payout; she comes for an answer that money can't replace. With Lowell, she finds herself drawn to the steadiness she has always provided for everyone else… and torn apart by what it would mean to accept it from him.



Rosalind "Roz" Aldous — The Medical Director
Roz is Mariposa's clinical conscience: brilliant, exacting, and the doctor who flagged Lucia's life-threatening risk—only to be overruled until her signature became part of the harm. She is Lowell's employee and a witness against his company, making their attraction both unethical and explosive. Where Lowell talks, Roz measures; where he sells, she sets terms.



Briar Nash — The Abolitionist
A former surrogate turned relentless organizer, Briar is the adversary Lowell can't charm, buy, or "mission" his way around—because she believes his kind version of the industry is the most dangerous one. She brings affidavits, scars, and a movement hungry for proof, and she treats Lowell like the best lie the business ever told. Falling for him would cost her credibility; wanting him feels like betrayal—and she hates that it's real.

Key Features

  • One decisive choice, three intense romance routes. A single-branch choice structure where the first door you walk toward shapes everything that follows.
  • High-stakes contemporary drama with grounded realism: acquisitions, legal holds, medical boards, and PR spin collide with intimate relationships.
  • Three distinct romance dynamics: a forbidden-by-faction rivalry with an anti-surrogacy abolitionist, an intimate bond with a doula seeking truth, and forbidden attraction with an off-limits employee and key witness.
  • Each romance route includes explicit adult scenes.
  • A protagonist who can't talk his way out forever. Lowell's greatest skill—making people feel safe—becomes the very thing the story interrogates.
