About This Game

the oubliette

Live among criminals in a small and horrible world

The guiltiest of criminals get hurled into the grand chasm, to die deep within the earth's bowels.
You among them. But not every fall is fatal, and these depths hide a fortune yet unknown.

Yet unknown, that is, to all, save for a trio of surviving condemned monstergirls.
An opportunity to seize power lies before them, and seize it they shall.

Rise with the downtrodden in a quest for underhanded revenge.
Join these girls and fight to change the continent, forever.

• Fast-paced tactics battles! Recruit your team, equip them with items, and form your strategy!
• Romance and branching routes — love truly can bloom on a battlefield, and it’s up to you to decide who for.
• Lovingly crafted text and choices with consequences
• Estimated 10+ hours playtime for one route/playthrough
• An unconventional, solo-created work that came from my heart

tactics

Fast-Paced, Turn-Based Tactics

  • Player/Enemy phase turns (like Fire Emblem)

  • Position-based follow-up attacks (like Triangle Strategy)

  • Small numbers, simple math (like Into The Breach) 
    Keep it in your head — ponder your strategy without needing to trial-and-error check attack forecasts

  • Meet new monstergirls, then recruit them to deploy them in battle
    ...Or hire them to earn you gold, losing a unit but allowing you to purchase powerful combat items

  • Unique abilities for all characters — spew fire, boost your movement, block off chokepoints, lose control and attack your allies, sneak behind enemy lines, and much more

  • Unique permanent upgrades for all characters

  • A wide variety of items; equip them creatively to make up for your squad's weaknesses

  • Modify the terrain, turning the battlefield to your advantage

  • Every battle is unique, with varying objectives

  • No permadeath, no XP or leveling, no height mechanic

  • Custom-tuned game engine, designed around mouse+keyboard controls

    • Less time navigating menus made for console players, more time making strategic and tactical decisions

    • If you're a Steam Deck user, pretend I didn't say that

  • All battles can be instantly skipped, if desired

story

After a century of torture, the Devoures finally execute you.

Death. It is a mercy.

You’re forced to jump into Oubliette, the enormous fissure in the ground that separates the elfen plateau from the rest of the continent. This is where they toss their trash — useless junk, broken gear, and people like you — to dispose of.

You fall, and fall...

When you hit the bottom, you’ll know freedom at last.

...But instead of the endless abyss, you wake in the woods to find a flitty fox girl standing over you, her palms awash with healing sorcery.

This kitsune woman is not an otherworldly deity, nor a spirit of the forest; she is simply a gifted sorceress, a fellow condemned criminal, and your mortal savior.

In gratitude, you pledge her your servitude.

She will make good use of it. Your new fluffy-tailed leader has unearthed natural riches granting power beyond belief, and holds grand ambitions. To see them through, she’ll need allies she can depend on.

Fight for freedom, mingle with the mafia, and change the continent forever.
Serve your kitsune as she takes you on a path of underhanded glory.

Along the way, encounter a variety of feisty monstergirls — lamia, arachne, harpies, tanuki, manticore and more — all with their own goals. Will they become friend, foe... or soulmate?

meet the criminals

hana

A clever kitsune gifted in sorcery and tread on by the world.
She seeks to leverage her newfound fortune to reform the continent.

deiza

Once the leader of a brutal mercenary clan terrorizing the land, she alone survived execution after capture.
This lamia lies now dormant, defeated in spirit, numbly aiding Hana's ambitions.

aichi

An arachne. Sadistic and unrepentant, she truly deserved her execution.
But it matters not. They threw you into the same hole; now, you're of the same kin.
Those in a hole must join, or die.

yowl

A crass bloodbath bird who loves nothing more than hurting other people.
Scarily talented in wetwork; her talons tell the tale.
She must have had a legendary mentor.

infri

Hana's close friend, though they've been long separated.
In recent years, Infri has been rising in popularity among the continent's largest crime network.
This succubus is your in with the underground.

josephine

Once of your former elfen clan, she is now a fellow turncoat, helping you fight against them.
Suffers from the most dangerous delusion.

alikina

Betrayed by her old master, this peculiar maid seeks a new deity to worship.
As a fallen angel, she's an unskilled warrior, but people can change in surprising ways...

mirzee

A powerful, seasoned manticore from a foreign nation.
She won't say what she's doing in this land — but you can take an educated guess.

mongo

A huge, muscular lioness who rarely speaks.
Does she even understand your words?
Gazes at you rather oddly. Best keep your distance.

taffu

A cute frog, desperate for opportunities to earn gold.
He has no ambitions beyond finding safe, stable, and lucrative work.
Er, safety optional.

zonie

A bratty mafia boss and a greedy tanuki.
Esteemed for her unrivaled smuggling skills, but unpopular otherwise, for... many reasons.
Utterly unhinged. Don't talk to her.

you

It's you! A former forced member of the continent's most secretive organization, you were condemned after...
Ghh... Your head, it hurts...
