Description
You awaken in a decrepit old mansion.

A woman with eyes of jade stands before You, informing You that You are the Master of the house, and she Your Maid. However, You have no memories, no concept of self—or, indeed, any certainty that You are even alive.

The Maid invites You to join her on a journey through the mansion's lifeless halls, to behold the numerous tragedies that have befallen its residents. She suggests that among them, perhaps You will find some trace of Yourself.

Beyond the first door lies the year 1603.
It is an era of unparalleled beauty, where art and theatre flourish. Roses bloom abundantly in the garden where the inseparable Rhodes siblings play, and though they appear to be free of worry and strife... not everyone is content to see them happy.

Beyond the second door lies the year 1707.
In this era, the mansion lies in ruins, and a beast dwells within. He claims to yearn for a life of serenity, but it is not long before he yields to his innate savagery and a massacre ensues.

Beyond the third door lies the year 1869.
In this technologically advanced era, people are always on the move. The mansion's master is an ambitious businessman who has invested in the rail industry. However, his obsession with wealth and power leads him to neglect and mistreat his wife.

Beyond the fourth door lies the year 1099.
The Maid tells You that this is the final tale. In this era, You see a young man who claims to be cursed and a girl with white hair, called Giselle, who has been branded a witch and marked for death.

Having borne witness to these four tragedies, each set in a different time and place, You are now free to choose whether You wish to end Your story here... or press on.

But there are those who would say,

"You were able to bear them because they weren't your tragedies."

In a sea of copycats, The House in Fata Morgana is a standout visual novel.

Rice Digitalby Kitsumeda
The House in Fata Morgana is a one-of-a-kind visual novel. Its bleak nature may be off-putting to some, with its slow start and tragic tales. But if a tragic story sounds like your cup of tea, there is something to be gained from each of these peculiar tales and the truly uncommon storytelling premise.

INCREDIBLE MUSIC

The music is so amazing and affecting that man like me(I am not interested in story about love) can immerse in such a story.

Amazing game

My first completed visual novel, great atmosphere, the story is top notch. The music is insane. I really liked the gothic style. 10 out of 10 Must play!

Eventually monotonous and disappointing

This starts off very promising, but after over 20 hours I gave up because it got too clever for its own good, and I got bored knowing that whatever the start of each episode, it would end in tragedy and horror. The characters were not sympathetic enough to care what happened to them and the twists and turns of the plot started to feel like fillers to extend the length of the novel. The devices used by the creators of the game to show the cruelties and frailties of us all were sound, but it became very depressing without any moments of happiness or joy to lighten the mood. I found the hero creepy and the two (?) heroines wishy washy. I know this will upset the fans of this vn who are into this style of novel, but I have read better in both hard copy and in games. Its not bad, but it was certainly not really to my taste and I don't think I am depressed enough to go back and finish it.
