Every night before bed, you hear strange banging noises coming from your closet.
It’s probably just old pipes… right? Or maybe it’s stress. 

Maybe it’s time to finally open the door.

To face your fears, you invite a few acquaintances over for your first-ever sleepover. You’ll laugh. Eat snacks. Tell scary stories...
And later that night… choose who to face the closet with.

But what’s really inside?
And what happens once the door opens?

CLOSETED is a short dark otome visual novel that blends romance, mystery, and psychological horror.
A branching narrative where your choices shape the fate of your guest... and your own.

Disclaimer: This is the DEMO/PROTOTYPE version of the game containing just a fraction of the narration. Depending on user feedback, we may or may not continue development.

THIS GAME!! THIS GAME IS A MASTERPIECE!! WHO WROTE THIS!?!? I LOVE YOU!! Not ONLY is the voice actors absolutely AMAZING (like how on EARTH do they fit the characters so well?!?!?) the writing and art is SO beautiful!! Back to the voice acting, jays fits him SO well!! And so does Williams and so does Auguste’s and so does MC’s!! Mcs VA did amazing work and the writing is spectacular (she is also a complete PSYCO!!)!! Now one of my favorite things in game is probably when you move the mouse the screen also moves around I LOVE when games do that!! Also the font that was chosen 10/10 very readable some VN’s fonts arent that readable but this one was!!

Now with the actual story itself at first i thought that it was definitely just like a cat or something in the closet and oh my GODS HUH?!??! I love this game!! The scary story telling made so much sense after looking in the closet 10/10 game!! ALSO William my beloved(´꒳`)♡ i love him amazing work i NEED more immediate gimme 17 spin off games, a 50 season show, and 4 movies please and thank you(˶ˆᗜˆ˵)


ALSO edit to add, is the fourth ending where MC doesn’t check the closet?  Im still missing 2 CGs (bottom left and middle left) ive done Willams, Augustes, and Jays endings but im not fully sure if im missing one.. everytime i do the ending where MC doesnt check the closet it wont save as an ending just kinda freezes after she says ‘I guess I’ll never find out what was in my closet’ probably a bug on my end but not fully sure then theres also a ‘[wait i0.2]’ in the first line after ‘I supervise them as they file out my front door.’ Then it says ‘[wait i0.2]’ no clue what thats about im just gonna assume a bug(˶ᵔᵕᵔ˶) if i am missing an ending if anyone knows how to get to them it would be much appreciated!!

This comment made me smile so hard!! Thank you so much!! I'm so happy you enjoyed the little camera work details as well <3
There were a few bugs with the endings on the previous build, but they should be fixed now!
No worries for the missing CGs, this is perfectly normal! This is the same CG for the different skintones!

Again, thank you so much for this beautiful comment, it makes me want to keep making games for everyone to enjoy! <3

This is so interesting!! I really hope you continue development, I really wanna know more!! I enjoyed the art and voice acting, and the UI is really pleasing as well. The difference in the endings is cool too! 10/10!!!

Thank you!
