It's my birthday today, I hope my gift is as good an upgrade as the last one 

>.<

I like how the shadow looks like terrorbeak from don't starve together, hehe

OMG TRU THOOOOO! i love dont starve

i  plan on playing this later, but the only thing that hooked me about it (not that the furry and lgbt stuff repels me, i dont care much abt that) is the supernatural element mentioned. before i play it, can someone tell me in a nutshell the answer to a couple questions?

1. what "kind" of supernatural stuff is it? ghost? religious? 

2. are the supernatural stuff explained later in the story?

⚠️ POSSIBLE SPOILERS ⚠️


1. I don't know specifically how to explain this supernatural thing that appeared, since the only supernatural creature that appeared had little screen time.


2. The supernatural only appeared in the game in a concrete way once and that was when the protagonist dies (in an alternative ending), so they don't explain or mention it.

Hi, unfortunately since the last update I haven't been able to load my past saves, and the skip button isn't working either. Id like to know if theres anything I can do, or if I'll have to start over? I know its a little late, but I only came bacl to playing the game today so I didn't know of this issue before. Im using android.

We added new gallery feature, and that broke the savefiles, sorry.
Yes, you'll have to play through again.

What a great build that was ^^ It had literally everything you could ask for and more, omg I can’t wait for a next one already!

Cienie is an absolutely captivating visual novel that masterfully blends mystery, thriller, and supernatural elements into a rich and atmospheric experience. The setting of Sypniewo feels authentic and immersive, perfectly complementing the intriguing narrative as you step into Tomasz’s shoes and unravel the layers of the town’s eerie disappearances. The writing is sharp and engaging, with characters that feel deeply real, their relationships and struggles pulling you further into the story.

The LGBT+ and furry representation is handled thoughtfully, adding meaningful depth to the diverse cast. I also appreciated how choices affect relationships and outcomes, offering a subtle but impactful sense of agency. The mature themes are explored with care, never gratuitous, and they add a grounded layer to the fantastical elements.

Cienie stands out as a shining example of what a visual novel can be—compelling, thought-provoking, and emotionally resonant. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a story-driven game with heart and substance!

WARNING some of the text that i've written have spoilers on what happened while playing the vn. Especially the scenes.


Cienie vn is a great vn to play! I just finished it recently, and it took me awhile to complete the vn since of my schedule. But, the vn is worth it to play! It's awesome to see the CGS, character designs and what they say. I'm mostly shocked about the Tom And Otto scene and suddenly the both of them got caught. I burst out laughing when Markus and Tom's dad appeared out off no where when they we're kissing. XD

( I feel bad for Otto ) 

But hey, This vn is great to play! It has a decent storyline, Great background designs and dialogue for each characters. I've enjoyed this vn and got addicted into playing to it recently, i'm also looking forward into newly future updates about this visual novel. :)

(I was so sorry when i got Tom killed)

(+3)

i haven't played this game i js want to tell the author i love them with all of my heart for the polish representation i hope your pillow is cold on both sides every night.

Thanks! We’ve been getting very comfy eeps so far ^^

A tribute to the obstinate masculinity of 'I don't want to be a burden on others, so I will deal with my problems poorly and secretively, thereby making them worse for everyone and myself.' However, I appreciate that the story is character-driven and that everyone has multi-layered motivations & emotional bonds, which keeps them from becoming stale cliches. 

I also love the pop-ups which provide insights into cultural names, pronunciations, & customs without being overbearing. My inner anthropologist is thriving.

The music, the visual art, the storytelling, the kiss with Otto—I am hooked. I was never particularly interested in the mystery-solving genre, but between this and Rain Check, my attitude has been changed entirely.

(+2)

Yay, another raincheck+cienie fan like me. :)

i love raincheck too. it’s a fun read

(+13)

Jeśli polska to pobieram

(+5)

I cant load previous saves and it keeps crashing (I am on win) also the skip button doesnt work so I cant fast forward.

(+1)

Yeah because of addition of gallery previous saves won't work, and I've no idea about skip button, checked game on multiple divices and it worked fine, try playing with skip options in game options

(+5)

I really enjoy the relationships and the writing in this. Thank you for an enjoyable experience. 

(+2)

(+1)

(+5)(-1)

I cant wait to find out what "them" are!

(+2)

Same!

(1 edit) (+5)

Hello!! ( Sorry for the bad english btw ), I really like this VN,is one of my favorites, the music, and scenary is just too GOOD, my favorites by now is Dawid, Otto and Raymond, they are so well write that I can't just pick one! 

(+2)(-1)

Oh wow, that’s all the main characters! I’m glad you can appreciate them

(2 edits) (+4)

probably one of the best vns ever made so far it feels realistic while at the same time providing some horror aspects although i have seen other detective related media get you to think more about their cases/mysteries this is still a wonderful vn and i cant wait for more of it

(+9)

Top of the shelf quality, engaging storyline, believable characters and biblically accurate Polish scenery... What more could one ask for? 

As of current it's splendid, best of luck with further development!!

(+6)

Very high quality FVN,enjoyed it a lot!Seems this game can't be rated right now,so I came to the comments to show my support,well done to all the devs!

(+3)(-2)

The art style looks nice, and I really liked the cast (ooh, especially Raymond and Tom!). The writing and themes at points felt pretty close to TSR and Echo (a bit too much at times imo), but it's looking neat!^^

(+5)(-1)

I may not have read it myself, but I have watched people play it. It piques my interest!

(+14)(-1)

Will we hear Tom purr ?

I mean… in what context?

(+2)

I don't really know

(+9)(-2)

Amazing vn. I liked some foreshadowing like that creepy thing downstairs for a split second.I will be patiently waiting for future updates. I came here to give it a full rating, but unfortunately the rating option seems to be turned off.:(

(+4)(-1)

Unfortunately it sounds like thanks to a dustup people were targeting it for review bombing. Which is a shame because this project is great and the team is stellar.

(+2)(-1)

Are you planning to add a gallery with all the arts and sprites and a book with terms in the future?

(+4)(-1)

We’re adding CGs, BGs and overlay images gallery in this coming build.

No plan to work on a sprite/glossary explorer yet.

(2 edits) (-1)

Nice. And what about the book of terms to have a  possibility access anytime if someone forgot what e.g. pierogi is (for somebody that don't know anything about our country and have to look what that is)? I know that you added glossary note with description and pronunciation guide on certain words or phrases (and that's super cool), but i'm talking about a separate tab with all the terminology, words and characters summary.

(+1)(-1)

Yea that’s what I mean when I said glossary explorer. No plan for that yet (though I’ve been thinking about it). If we do get a substantial amount of people wanting it, then yes, I’ll rack my brain up to come with the UI.

(flashbacks to the 3 days of working on the pronunciation guide pop-up non-stop)

(2 edits) (+1)(-1)

Oh, sorry for the misunderstanding.

Great to hear that, and sorry for the flashbacks, you did an amazing work though.

Keep up with the positive and creative work of yours! Your game rocks.

No NSFW content? I'm new here just looking for some furry VN similar to TSR and After class, just so random I just seen this game why it's on tag with furry or gay? The animation look like TSR so I instantly download it. It's ok if we didn't get any NSFW stuff thou I'm just a casual furry fan

(1 edit) (+6)(-1)

The devs have said they currently have no intention of implementing NSFW scenes into the game, but it does discuss and even allude to NSFW situations. I take that to mean there will be no explicit scenes in the game, though themes of sexuality will be present.

They are also open to NSFW fanart and the like.

(+2)

Oh ok, i don't force the creator of the game to put some random request to it's creation, I'm just looking for a good VN with good storyline just like TSR and other Echo Games the NSFW content was just a bonus.

(+2)

i've made a collection of VN furry stuff on my profile if you could check and see what you need.

thanks I'll check them all out as some I finished some of prev VN on my stash

(+3)(-3)

No explicit nudity/sex shown in this VN.

But hey, no worries. Thanks for checking Cienie out.

Of course I'm a sucker for any good storyline VN that got me hooked that feel the settings of the whole VN that got feel like I'm the MC of the game. If the author didn't want to put any NSFW content I'm ok with it, NSFW content was just a chief kisses to any VN that for sure storyline was the most important 

(+6)(-3)

this story is actually so interesting omg

(1 edit) (+4)(-2)

Glad that you’re enjoying it so far. There’ll defo be more revealing plots in future builds

(+8)(-2)

Been here since the first build and was hooked immediately, especially because of the South-East Asia mentioned (ADA INDONESIA GAIS 🦅🦅🦅!!!) and Raymond became one of my fav instantly, I'm so sorry about what's happening and I hope you guys does not get discouraged and continue y'all great work❤️❤️❤️

(+4)(-2)

Hey Hiriko,

Yes, I’m glad that you like Raymond. It’s our intention to have a proud rep for the ASEAN gang.

We’re doing fine now. Working on the next build as usual.

Makasih udah membaca VN ini. Aku juga ga nyangka kalo ada pembaca dari indo juga, but thanks gais.

(+6)(-2)

Really love this vn! Keep up the great work

Hellooooo there!

I just wanted to give you this message in this times. What all your team does is absolutely WONDERFUL. The art is astoning, the story catch you and you just want to keep going and discovering every aspect of it.

I can't tell so much as I'm planning to show my full reactions and opinions on my gameplay videos as someone requested me to do a Let's Try. But I hope you have all the support you deserve.

I know it has been tough times, but I hope you know that after a storm comes a rainbow. Please keep doing what you love and don't let anyone take you down.

hope whoever’s disliking every comment here is having a wonderful day. thanks for visiting this page. you deserve the best in life. i mean it 🙏

(+12)(-5)

This VN is SOLID👌💎!!! Ya'll nailed the mystery/haunted town atmosphere perfectly. Feels akin to something like: Stranger Things, Wayward Pines, Goosebumps, Twilight Zone etc. I also love what y'all have done with the characters. They all have their own charm to them that makes em memorable.

The pronunciation system you guys added is a nice touch. And explaining cultural pieces throughout the writing really adds a lot to the novel. I can't wait for the next build! I can't get enough of Raymond, The Malaysian Tiger 🇲🇾

(-1)

Sameeee…. Raymond is too pure

(+15)(-4)

just finished reading the new build and this visual novel is amazing! definitely one of my new favs and the soundtrack is so so so good... also love the ui design its sooo good

(+1)(-1)

finally, the hours spent fiddling with effects on soundtrap paid off.

glad you’re enjoying the music ^^

(+16)(-6)

Will be happily checking you guys out soon. Really sorry for everything yall are being put up with.

(+1)(-2)

No worries. We’re managing so far and slowly getting back in the groove. Please check our VN whenever you’re free and tell us what you honestly think.

(+21)(-5)

There really is someone wasting their time downvoting almost every positive post lol

(+1)(-1)

Hey, it’s cool. Ironically having people who checks every new comment does boost the page’s engagement somewhat 🤷😅
