Sinful Rituals in the Dark (gay bara 18+ demo available)
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android
The Story
You've been working hard to turn around the prospects of your urban church located in the heart of a rough neighborhood in the city, and your efforts are starting to show in the growing amount of parishioners! The Arch Bishop has decided your hard work should be rewarded and he's given you a trip to a beautiful priestly retreat. You could certainly use the break, both from your labour and also from the troubling thoughts that plague your mind more and more as of late...
The three leaders of the retreat are quite welcoming and are very interested in making sure you have a relaxing, deeply spiritual stay. But something about this church seems strange. You can't help but feel darkness lingering in certain corners, flashes of something truly evil here and there.
It's all just in your mind...Right?
Game created by Deevil and Robin Harper
The Priests
Father Richard is the leader of the priests' retreat. A warm and welcoming man who commands the attention of everyone when he enters the room.
Father Gabriel is mysterious and stern. He doesn't suffer fools and really just wants to keep to himself.
Father Joachim takes "ye are the temple of God" to new heights. Focused on fitness and the outdoors, this easy-going priest really wants to make sure you're comfortable and take in the best the retreat has to offer.
Full game coming soon!

Will the update of this game ever be released? Or time to give up?
Thanks for asking. I’ve been very very busy but I do intend to complete the game. Just have to try and find some time.
Only can hookup with Joachim
Joachim is amazing! Hoping for the full version
i need me some more Father Joachim.
yea definitely! I really hope things slow down for me in real life so I can get this finished! Wish me luck!
Anxiously awaiting this amazing looking game
so sorry! It is still coming. Life is chaos and all that. I’m not going to say when but it will!
No need to apologize!
just a quick update. We’ll be continuing development but things got quite hairy for myself and the writer so it’ll be a while longer. We’re close but at least another month or two. Work and life have been beyond crazy for us both. Sorry!
"at least another month or two" - for a next version?
That’s right.
Hello. I have a problem. Can you tell me When I choose top or bottom choosing scene, why the game always kick me off? Is it because my smartphone?
hmmm it could be… I’m hoping to have the full game out soon (I’m very behind where I thought I’d be :( ) and maybe that’ll help but I’m not sure tbh. It would have to be an android device you’re using. It might be the animations causing the problem. Perhaps they’re too much of a load for the phone?
Oh! I see. I'm using OPPO A5 2020. It's okay. I can wait for your full game. ^_^
Damn this game was god tier🔥🔥🔥 wish for more update
soon Daddy! I was hoping for christmas but might take a couple more weeks. A bunch more content is done but we do want to beef it up more still.
No need to rush with this kind of god tier game, it takes time to make this and I'm so excited how this game gonna continue. Happy New Year 🎉💖
*spoilers*👀💦

I wonder how that got in there… how weird…
Waiting for the rest
It’ll come! Likely around Christmas :)
I can only have sex with Father Joachim in the demo right?
that’s right. Sorry it’s a bit short for the demo! Hopefully I’ll get a chance to beef it up alongside the full game soon!
It's alright. But I really like that you can choose between top and bottom! And the animation is great too!
Thanks :D I’m hoping to re render them for better quality and wasn’t sure if going with never seeing the main character would work, but I think it turned out as good as i could without showing the main character :)
I'm not going lie, with main character it would be better. Plus it gives additional options like licking, nipples sucking, etc. But I understand, it's hard and time consuming work. But I still liking it and this is refreshing to see not furry game!
I was going for self-insert by not having a main character sprite buuuut I agree with you. It became very limiting. I’ll have to ponder it with my co-conspirator :)
God is gay ✔
Hot stuff, nice work, :D
My game crashes on the sex scene with Father Joachim :/ android version
shoot. I’ll try to take a look tomorrow. It’s about 200 images in the animation so maybe it’s the loading time. I’ll see what I can figure out with an emulator though.
I love dark fantasy erotic stories! It has some potential. But the demo is too short... I hope the full game will be long enough to open up the story. The rendered CGs (especially with the standard DAZ assets of the modern style) don't really suit the dark story like this, in my opinion. A real art or just more dramatic light, less saturated colors, would be cooler, but that's probably too much to ask... How non-linear is the story going to be? I'd like to see difficult choices, time/resource management and other elements of interactivity. Maybe even puzzles. Thanks for working on it anyways!
It will be fairly linear (I mean, it's porn, we don't want it to be too difficult) and the full game about 4x as long. Unfortunately I can't draw for shit lol but I am working on improving lighting, etc to hopefully get better :) Thanks for playing!
"we don't want it to be too difficult" - why not? Give player a real challenge and reward them with the smut pictures - this always works)
haha good point :) it may be something we come back to and beef up in the future too. For now we also had to keep it easy because it was only a two month game jam and it does take a lot of time to do any game even on a mostly linear play-style (although there are going to be three different endings anyways). We’ll keep it in mind though!
Quick fix uploaded to correct the textbox and text in it on android (updated the pc/mac/linux as well for version number, no real changes from .99 in those though).
