Probably one of the most enchanting visual novels ever, The Arcana: A Mystic Romance is a visual novel filled with magic, mystery, and romance. Play as a sorcerer's apprentice who finds themselves in the middle of a murder mystery that only you have the skills to solve. Create your own path with endless choices; meet an eclectic cast of characters, each more interesting than the last; and maybe, just maybe, fall head over heels in love.

But before you can unlock each of The Arcana's individual character routes–and pursue a romantic relationship with them–you'll need to complete the story's prologue first!
