Duality (Date 5 OUT)
What started out as an attempt to flirt with a cute guy lands you in the middle of a bizarre love triangle. This could've been thrilling. That is, if you weren't being tugged back and forth between two people, between romance and terror, between bliss and insanity. Choose wisely, "Main Character", for your choices might determine who gets to live and who gets to die.
Duality is an erotic horror game about two unstable individuals trying to win you over through every romantic and gruesome way possible.

This was the best freaky game I’ve played, I
I did read the description abt sexual content, but I didn’t at the same time 🤣🤣 this was sooo good
This game is AMAZING but I can't survive to date 5 this weird monster thing keeps telling me to disappear so how do I get passed that
I don't usually comment, but I have to say this is by far one of the best visual novel that I've ever seen on Itch.io. Can't wait to see all the endings and the rest of the story. I'll be waiting!!!
Is there a guide for all routes because I want the tamed ending, but I'm not sure if it exists or not, and I also wanted to try the poly end; however, I'm unsure how to balance everything, so I don't ruin my gameplay.
The game isn't finished yet, so there are no final endings at the moment. Only Bad Ends. I am working on a guide though.
is there a guide for all the dates?
This game is really awesome! It's the second game that I like so much! It's just that after downloading, there seems to be something wrong with the Android icon.
For some reason, I just downloaded and it seems the game stops at the restaurant date with Keith? Is it the choices I'm making?
If you choose that you're terrified at the start of Date 3, your character will automatically choose to give up during the restaurant date. If you pick something else, you'll receive a second option at the restaurant.
If you're talking about the "enraged" choice I have gotten that... my playthrough has been positive choices but my game ends after the date where the waitress flirts with Keith. Unless that's truly where the current build ends? TT But it doesn't seem so according the new guides I've seen. Maybe I'm doing something wrong
How does it end exactly? If you are getting any kind of "Bad End" or "Safe End" that is related to your choices. I will never put an ending of any sort in place of a continuation.
I managed to figure it out! It was because I kept investigating the noise after the restaurant date instead of ignoring it. Thank you for the patience, that's my whoopsie
I love both but lended up with Keith on the first time 1 played. It was so good tysmm~ (^- -^)
i love them both and omg, the nsfw scenes are so good <3333
make jacob a love intrest damn hes fine
I love both Keith and Tenebris 😭💗
I'm really enjoying this game! but I just got to the interlude and saw the warning for bugs and I'm deadly afraid of bugs. Does anyone know what endings or choices to avoid to stay away from the bugs so I can still get most of the endings?
Hi there! I'm glad you're enjoying the game :D
(Spoiler warning) The bugs only appear during Tenebris' interlude. To avoid seeing them at all, simply never pick the "Obey" option.
Oh, thank you so much!! <3
For the android version the icon seems to have broken during the update :( i miss the app icon 😭
Yes, this one is my bad. I'll get it fixed, don't worry
Thank youuuu, also absolutley love the novel :D
I WANT JACOB
fair that the others didnot wanna stick around. but i find neither keith or tenebris all that disturbing. (well, at least AFTER i understand that tenebris isnot trying to harm me) they're charming fellas. they got problems, but theyre trying their best in a difficult situation. i feel proud of them.
this is freshest comment ive ever seen lmao
this is the only game where i honestly can't choose who to date. the best thing? I DON'T HAVE TO. I CAN DATE BOTH AJAJHAKJGH
i just want to wrap tenebris and keith in a warm blanket. let them (and me) be happy !! really love the twists and where the story is going. can't wait for more !! aaahhhhhhhhhhhhh
Bouta play..
Help how do I get the new bad ending? I tried everyhting
Pick all the "obey" options in tenebris's interlude :D
Thank you! But I mean how do I get this, saw it on TikTok
ohhh that I don't know srry, please tell me if you find out!😭 edit- i got it!! what worked for me was being rude to him during date 3 then nice to him in date 4 before trying to do tenebris' route in date five.. then in the kitchen when keith tells you tenebris wants to come out click "let him stay"
I have no idea, ive actually never seen that cg! It could be Patreon exclusive?
It is not Patreon exclusive. It is from the Date 5 bad ending
I will post a guide soon! But the gist of it is: be mean to Keith during date 3 (at least 4 times) and then try going down Tenebris' route during Date 5. You must reach an option that says "Let him stay"
will we get guides for all of the endings? :3
Hi!!!! If youre still wondering i have the answers! :D
Cómo puedo cochar con tenebris? (Respondanme por fi)
OMG, TY, LMAO
esta realmente buena esta historia 100% recomendada, estoy ansiosa por la siguiente actualizacion!!!!!! necesito en que acaba y que va a pasar con Keith y Tenebris
De verdad que tiene buenos juegos pero lastima que no lo tenga en español
Amo este juegooooo, y es asombroso cómo no podría elegir a ninguno de los dos porque los amo a ambos!!! Keith es tan dulce (aunque secretamente sabemos que guarda algo oscuro en su interior) y Tenebris es tan transparente y genuino que es refrescante, contrastan muy bien sus personalidades. La subtrama de la persecución de un ente extraño a MC también es interesante, esperando por más!! ;) Lo recomiendo 100%
absolutely love this game. definitely recommend it.
this is so peak i love it
Felicidades! Uno de los mejores trabajos que he leido, puesto que no es mi lengua materna he tenido que traducir mucho pero merece la pena, estoy deseando que siga la historia. No he visto que se pueda hacer aportaciones y me gustaria apoyarte!
Hola alguien sabe cuándo actualiza esta gran novela ✨💗
RAHHHHHHHH I love them both <3 RAHHHHHH IM GONNA GIVE YOU MONEY DEV PLS KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK I HAVENT GOTTEN ALL THE ENDINGS YET BC I'M TOO SCARED TO BE MEAN BUT I'M WORKING UP TO IT
