overall it's a great game, however, I think there should be more choices, even if it's small dialogue changes that don't impact the story, it would be nice, it's like we don't have any choice about what the MC will say or do and that not exactly what is expected.
No, do not apologize on their behalf. They knew what has been going on, but they either chose to deny reality or don't care. Either case no refunds, and they must live with the stigma of having supported a possible con artist. Let them wake up on their own accord.
When I completed Adastra for the first time, it was still early release. The ending had not been added yet, but I knew that I'd want to experience it someday in its entirety. I was so eager to return to the world, to meet the characters, to fall in love with Amicus again. I dedicated this weekend to doing so.
And naturally, I'm an emotional wreck once again, but this time it's so much worse. Adastra is one of those experiences where once you complete it, you wish that you could re-experience it all over for the first time. And at the same time, you almost wish you hadn't experienced it in the first place, because you're left with a deep sadness in the pit of your stomach and a longing for the life you just left behind.
Though this is a visual novel, it would be just as powerful as a novella. Even without the art and music (and by god the art and music is excellent), Howly has written an engaging and intimate story, and your relationship with each of the characters is complex and develops naturally. You feel happiness at their happiness. You feel genuine comfort every time you and Amicus embrace, brief moments of relief that punctuate the growing anxiety. You feel real sadness and shock and anger and horror (not just fear, but legitimate horror) as events unfold. I caught myself shaking as I approached the story's climax, the dread mounting as I experienced the pain all over again.
I am so thankful that I experienced Adastra. As someone else commented, this game makes you feel alive. Having finished it, I feel small and vulnerable and very, very human. I have literally fallen in love with a fictional character in a fictional world, and I feel genuine pain knowing that I will never be able to truly act upon it. And what's worse: the story is written such that the characters feel the same heartbreak that you feel, and that only deepens the sadness further. But I wouldn't have it any other way.
Adastra is indeed a masterpiece of emotion and storytelling, and I am desperate for more. Thank you to everyone who brought it to life, and thank you for bringing Amicus to me.
So I just finished the story, from beginning to end in one day. And, wow. I feel like a need a second game. Do they have a Twitter or something I can check out? Is there a sequel?
Hey hey, just wanted to add some details lol Interea is what we call a spin-off: It's when another story is made to focus on a specific character of event (in this case, to focus on the Moon Tour). Therefore, it takes place DURING Adastra, hence why you should play it before Khemia. Khemia however is a sequel, the events take place after Adastra. Though I must say, I'll call it a "half-sequel" cuz you don't get to play the human, but I won't spoil ;)
I have seen and heard many things in my life, but this, THIS...
What can I even begin with? I'm at a loss of words.
This is a masterpiece. This game feels like what I've been waiting my entire life. I can just say that when Amicus went through that door and that I was left alone, all I could do was crying.
Let me be honest, when I first downloaded the game, I was here just for some sex scenes. Little did I know there were at the end of the game. When I understood I'd have to play before getting them, I deleted all data, and restarted the game, thinking:
"Hey, maybe this game is kinda cool"
And I played it.
And I loved it.
And I still love it.
Slowly, I began to realize that this game was beautiful. First off, let me tell you I never had anything like a celibrity, or character crush. So imagine my confusion when I admitted I had real, strong, long lasting feelings for a wolf sprite in a video game. The character construction is pure perfection. I won't make a long paragraph on this, I risk being overly lyrical, but... The way Amicus talks, the way the Human talks, it just... Feels like me, it feels like what I could say, or what I could think. The strength of some music tracks for example, tracks like "Memories" or "Romance" or hell, even "Reveal (2)" is just mind blowing. All the tears I cried because of these tracks, damn...
Honestly, I even struggle writing this right now, because this is too much. I'm way too emotionally involved in Adastra to write a well-written comment.
This game broke me in so many way but also built me. Now... Even if we ain't sure the Human and Amicus are gonna see each other again, I don't care. I know I'll always love that bastard. One day I just want to wake up in a red blanket, held tight by a big fluffy warm form, being soothed back to sleep by his slow breathe...
I know it's delusional and I don't really care at this point. But I do believe that somewhere in our Galaxy, a big wolf awaits for his fate and one day we shall meet up.
This visual novel made me feel alive and it's all that matters. Everything is close to perfection, the writing, the characters, the story...
Fuck all those so-called straight and non-furry "writers" that play the game and bitch about here.
I still hurts a little when I see that EchoProject is focusing on other games, rather than working on Interea and Khemia. I really *really* hope, that one day we'll get to see our Wolf again.
Also, there are so many secrets in this game we still can't answer. At the very beginning, the Human dreams of a Portal...? And what's that horse that breathes flies attached to a beheaded wolf?
In the Bad Ending, the Human dies in Amicus' arms and won't be resurrected by the Parents. The Meera Ending is similar to the Good Ending, but instead of trusting the Parents you despise them. Also yes, that's the right order
something that really bothers me about Virginia (and not so much about her as much as how the game treats her) it's that she likes to pretend she is the only one put-together but in reality she's just as dysfunctional as the rest of the cast she's just better at hiding it she's reminds of Jenna from Echo except the game eventually calls out Jenna about not being so above it all which allows her to grow as a person, something that never happens to Virginia i guess what really gets to me is her last conversation with Marco, she says that she matter-of-factly that she doesn't matter and proudly proclaims to not trust anyone and i just think how sad it is for anyone to say that i wish Marco would have told her that it's not true, she does matter,that there are people outhere that care about her for more than just the work she does, i wish he would have told her that trusting no one isn't a good thing, that no healthy relationship can exist without mutual trust, so that she won't spent the rest of her life friendless and loveless
I understand, but consider the society she exists in. She needs to be the strong figure there for everyone and having all those annoying triumvirates trying to take her down, she needs that strength. And I do believe she trusts Marco, otherwise she would not have told him all that she is, she does not trust him now because he is still a kid (politically speaking) but she will come to trust him more on the years to come. She is a sad figure but she is extremely. She matters, but in the grand scheme of things...
Well, when she said she doesn't matter it was in a crude sarcastic way. She said that not because she thinks she doesn't matter, but because that's actually what their society is compelled to think. It was a harsh way to help Marcus see how hard is for her to build an image. And yes, if she really doesn't trust anyone she would never tell Marcus all she said. And even Marcus had his trust betrayed in that environment remember?
(Spoilers so skip if you haven't finished the game.)
To make "First Contact" with a species means that you encounter another species from another planet from the first time. In Adastra, making First Contant without the Parents' agreement is illegal, and frowned upon. Hence why Amicus is such in big trouble.
If you encountered the "Bad Ending" as in the Human dies, it's because you haven't said "Yes" when previously, the Parents asked you to agree to work for them.
So, just this minute finished this visual novel and it is beautiful. The story is wonderfully written and the visuals are gorgeous.
My one and only quibble would be that we don't see the main character (other than a few small snippets here and there), including a fully realised version of the character through whose eyes we see this fascinating world would really help me get more into it.
There was one scene that really hit hard for me, one that seems so simple but after this last year resonates with exactly where I am right now, that being where the MC and Amicus have their first proper, long hug, and the MC asks himself: "How lonely do you have to be to just want to cuddle someone?" Had to stop there and have a little cry.
It's been 6 days and I think you have finished though, so I'm tossing it here. If you guys haven't finished yet, don't read! :P
Good ending: The Parents showed you a vision of the Future with Amicus. You trust them and feel safe about your mission. In order to have this ending, you have to answers at least two of thoses choices:
- Answer "Infinity" when the Monitor asks you what you feel about Death.
- Answer "You should keep talking to him" (or smth) to Amicus when he asks you if he should stop speaking to Neferu
- Answer "Yes" when being asked by the Parents if you think Amicus will be a good Emperor.
______________________
Meera ending: When the Parents are about to show you a vision of your future with Amicus, Meera kicks (or the Other...?) and firmly advises you not to trust the Parents. You end up not trusting them and you feel unsure about your mission. In order to have this ending (which doesn't change the end of the game, you still split with Amicus), you have to do the opposite of the choices above (or at least not doing 2 of them).
______________________
Bad Ending: When Cato slices your throat after you stabbed him (son of a bitch <3). You die on Amicus' lap but the Parents do not resurrect you. In order to obtain this ending, you must answer "I refuse" (or something) when the Parents ask you to submit to the benevolent will of the Parents (my ass LOL).
Enjoy Adastra as much as possible, now imma go back to cuddling my husbando Amicus *wheeze*
Can I just say, this novel is fucking amazing. I cannot put into words the emotions Adastra made me felt. I almost cried three times, I tensed up and relaxed multiple times, my heart was hammering, boner raging sometimes. This novel is pure GOLD!! I dread the day it comes to an end...
But really. If I could be trapped in any existence, taking another with me, it would be my bf and I to Adastra, visiting Khemia and all the other plantes..
I played Adastra for the first time and what an emotional rollercoaster that was, I thoroughly enjoyed it. Genuinely felt the emotions of the main character at various stages it was wild. Loved the story and loved the music too. Now I just want my own Amicus ;-;
Interesting, but some people disagree with the MBTI personality types for some of the characters; therefore, inaccurate labelling, but interesting nonetheless. I hope they improve/update upon it.
Sometimes I wish there were more options involving which characters you could interact with more and possibly build a strong developing relationship with them, especially with the Egyptian Jackal.
Heck, when that Egyptian alien first made an appearance, I some timed wished the game had started out with that Jackal at the very beginning of the whole visual novel to begin with.
I was thinking more along the lines of Marco/MC x Neferu (and/or possibly Amicus included in that as well) while at the same time maybe mixing in a few other characters into that as well like say for instance Cassius, Alexios, and Cato if he can turn out to not be evil at the end through the main characters actions and interactions toward him through some method used in one way or another.
You don't have the choice to top Amicus. In the first sex scene there is only one way it can happen. (Spoilers):
Though in the last sex scene, Amicus offers you the choice. Doesn't matter what you choose, only the images and the dialogues change, the outcome is the same. You shouldn't feel bad for topping the wolf lol
It is funny because if you know too much history you will roll your eyes at Adastra. But if you know just bits and pieces you can appreciate and understand some of the culture.
In ancient Rome, like in Adastra, it was socially acceptable for m/m sex. Who knows why. Maybe it was an accepted fetish to humiliate another straight person that way or if it was just friends helping each other release some steam. History doesnt know why but it was just socially acceptable. But ACTUALLY having a male lover as a male was looked down upon just as it is in Adastra. And like in Adastra an emperor shouldn't be the 'bottom'. / In short, when Rome conquered Greece it was actually Greek culture that ended up dominating Roman culture, especially within higher society. As you also might know, the Romans adopted the Greek gods but changed their names (to the planet names we are familiar with). And like us today, they may have changed the names of certain celebrations but the topics stayed the same, some of which were plain our orgies.
When Christianity came around it was an antithesis religion or slave religion as some philosophers call it. Because the slave cannot have glory, comfort, sex, and other things the masters took for granted, they viewed those as sin and said what makes you holy is temperance, fasting, abstinence, and so on. If you have looked at the passage of a man shall not lay with another man in the original language they use different words to describe "man". A more accurate translation would be no adult shall lay with a adolescent. This is because back then it was quite normal for 12-18 year olds to be with 20-40 year olds in a m/m relationship especially when away from their wives on long trips (cuz apparently gay sex with a substantial age difference doesnt count as cheating on your wife). Peculiar, and almost a traumatizing experience I bet for most adolescents these days, but whatever I guess.
Yeah, playing Adastra then Interea then Khemia is the right order. Though I might say it doesn't matter as long as you begin with Adastra. Since Khemia is not a DIRECT sequel to the game (you don't play the human in Khemia)
Please, update the app for Android 12. I got a message from the system that says I could have problems playing the game since its an old version. I just re started It today.
i LOVE the series. But i can't get to the game and i would love to play it- but im on samsung so if u can make it were you can play it on samsung- cause i dont really have the money to buy a new one but i might get one on my birthday. either way i LOVE the series on youtube obvi and please try and make it on samsung. :]
You can download the Android APK version? Samsung runs Android. Open Chrome on your Samsung, go to this very page, click on the Adastra 17-release.apk (279MB) with the little Android logo, and then play it ahah ^^
Who wrote the music for this game? I would love to have the sheet music. I know some of it is available online, but not all of it. (I specifically want the sheet music for "quiet lullaby').
Since the OST on Spotify is not the EXACT one you here in the game, and Spotify is well... eh... Spotify... And that we have no other options, the game files are the only way to have all the music tbh
Playing Adastra for the first time in a week ago and finished it today is such a beautiful experience of filling with emotions and great execution in this excellent Visual novel game. it's filled with humor and seriousness and full of surprises to be sure but a welcome one. I am looking forward for another Thrilling journey again if the main like whole new sequel other than the two. (most likely referring to Adastra 2 if there is gonna be one continuing the perspective of the Human) and this is the only Visual novel that I felt very overwhelming like it should be a series, well it is now hahaha. still shocked and cried awfully like a baby at the end because it make me feel a lot connected with the characters and the story, especially Amicus at this point and somehow.. there is an end of the first Novel that had me emotionally devastated when it comes to an end basically ha ha ha ha ha. still all the experience from this Novel teaches me to be firm and steady from all of things like motivating me and to think a wise choice to make in the present. and to the point to acknowledging someone and learning about this examples of people. and although I am not very poetic at all, I am simply just sharing my emotional experience to be Honest. even I finished it by choosing the best choices.. I feel having 2nd thoughts playing again, even though I got The better one to say the least. but that doesn't stop me from Memorizing all the events that occurring in the entire Novel ho! ho! it's still here and forever will be! I am even out of words on what to say next ha ha ha. it feels like an eternity to play and get to attached to these types of fascinating and Unique characters and yes obviously Amicus! the main one to be precise. this is the only Novel game that drives me into an emotional rollercoaster and based on real problems in life that makes me understand certain types of things mostly and willing to look forward following this series as it goes on I hope so. and I will be astonished and thrilled if there is a new sequel. and wow. this is the only long feedback I have given and excuse me if there is a wrong grammar in my reply. anyways. I am off playing the second sequel!
Adastra is finished. The story will MAYBE or maybe not continue in a game we do not know of, because Interea isn't a sequel but a spin-off (happening during Adastra) and Khemia, as far as I know, is SOME SORT of sequel but without the human, and I don't think he'll appear in this game. So, right now, the only answer I can give is: I don't know and I'm sad lol
ok guys hear me out. Adastra AU where the MC pilots the ship back to earth but crash-lands it, and then has to live with Amicus and harbor him from the authorities, whilst getting into all sorts of shenanigans. basically it's the sitcom ALF. i call it ALFastra. does this have potential
I just finished reading it. WWHHHYYYYY DOES EVERYTHING GOOD HAVE TO END. I just want this to keep going forever (even though I know that's impossible). 15/10 would recommend
You play Adastra first (with the human and Amicus), then Interea (a spin-off, happening before the end of Adastra, with the human and Amicus), then you play Khemia, which is half a sequel, and half a spin-off, happening two years after the events of Adastra. In Khemia, you don't play as the human but as a Wolf named Scipio (but you meet again almost all the characters from Adastra)
I just finished playing through Adastra a second time and Im wondering is there going to be a story that is set after the eight years or even the MC's point of view throughout his time on Earth? I understand we currently have Interea and Khemia in development but i would love to have a continuation of the Amicus story that is set after the events of Adastra.
I like how under more information dev suggest that an average session is a few seconds. I could not stop after start the game and dive like 9+ hours in a session.
But yeah, it feel like only a second pass when all thing finished.

I finished it ,but i want to read more. I'm sad. Please make Adastra 18, I MISS AMICUS :(
why time came upted pls need game upted
Why update when it ended?we need adastra 2! ...... 2.1
(Spoilers)
overall it's a great game, however, I think there should be more choices, even if it's small dialogue changes that don't impact the story, it would be nice, it's like we don't have any choice about what the MC will say or do and that not exactly what is expected.
I think the main idea was to tell the story, not to build up the MC
Please make adastra 18
Ha I wish, I think adastra is done for now, and Khemia(?) Is on hiatus and inertia doesn't have that many updates.
Adastra Is a Complete game.
The second one you must play is Interea, then Khemia. Updates are currently a bit slow.
Please make Adastra 69
It was:
No, do not apologize on their behalf. They knew what has been going on, but they either chose to deny reality or don't care. Either case no refunds, and they must live with the stigma of having supported a possible con artist. Let them wake up on their own accord.
Ah dammit. I did it again, didn't I?

I was so eager to return to the world, to meet the characters, to fall in love with Amicus again. I dedicated this weekend to doing so.

Adastra is indeed a masterpiece of emotion and storytelling, and I am desperate for more. Thank you to everyone who brought it to life, and thank you for bringing Amicus to me.
I'll be fine, probably.
So I just finished the story, from beginning to end in one day. And, wow. I feel like a need a second game. Do they have a Twitter or something I can check out? Is there a sequel?
The second game is Khemia and Adastra continued story is Interia
What order should I play them in? Also, are they still being updated?
yep need to wait for the next update thou
Ok thanks! I think I read that Interia goes before Khemia, but the android apk can't be opened after downloading.
Hey hey, just wanted to add some details lol
Interea is what we call a spin-off: It's when another story is made to focus on a specific character of event (in this case, to focus on the Moon Tour). Therefore, it takes place DURING Adastra, hence why you should play it before Khemia.
Khemia however is a sequel, the events take place after Adastra. Though I must say, I'll call it a "half-sequel" cuz you don't get to play the human, but I won't spoil ;)
GOODthx4ASKING
Hi friend, Im fine, thanks for asking. I hope youre ok as well! How's Life?
(Spoilers)
What can I say?
I have seen and heard many things in my life, but this, THIS...
What can I even begin with? I'm at a loss of words.
This is a masterpiece. This game feels like what I've been waiting my entire life. I can just say that when Amicus went through that door and that I was left alone, all I could do was crying.

Also, there are so many secrets in this game we still can't answer. At the very beginning, the Human dreams of a Portal...? And what's that horse that breathes flies attached to a beheaded wolf?
To the Stars.
(NB: Please Alexios, die <3)
Exactly me
What is going to happen in the Bad Ending and Merra Ending ?
And what is the right order to play, is it
Adastra - Interea - Khemia ?
(Spoilers, pass if you haven't finished.)
In the Bad Ending, the Human dies in Amicus' arms and won't be resurrected by the Parents. The Meera Ending is similar to the Good Ending, but instead of trusting the Parents you despise them. Also yes, that's the right order
Thanks <3
Spoiler warning
This game got me scared of the name Cato
You should delete your comment or make it spoiler... For those who haven't finished the game...
Spoiler
I've always said that the moment you see the wolf on screen is the moment you know a major f@ck up is going to happen.
nice
SPOILERS AHEAD
something that really bothers me about Virginia (and not so much about her as much as how the game treats her) it's that she likes to pretend she is the only one put-together but in reality she's just as dysfunctional as the rest of the cast she's just better at hiding it
she's reminds of Jenna from Echo except the game eventually calls out Jenna about not being so above it all which allows her to grow as a person, something that never happens to Virginia
i guess what really gets to me is her last conversation with Marco, she says that she matter-of-factly that she doesn't matter and proudly proclaims to not trust anyone and i just think how sad it is for anyone to say that
i wish Marco would have told her that it's not true, she does matter,that there are people outhere that care about her for more than just the work she does, i wish he would have told her that trusting no one isn't a good thing, that no healthy relationship can exist without mutual trust, so that she won't spent the rest of her life friendless and loveless

It was a harsh way to help Marcus see how hard is for her to build an image. And yes, if she really doesn't trust anyone she would never tell Marcus all she said. And even Marcus had his trust betrayed in that environment remember?
What is the First Contact ?
I don't remember it and had no idea why Cato wanted to execute Marco ?
My anxiety went so high, thought I encountered the bad ending :(
(Spoilers so skip if you haven't finished the game.)
To make "First Contact" with a species means that you encounter another species from another planet from the first time. In Adastra, making First Contant without the Parents' agreement is illegal, and frowned upon. Hence why Amicus is such in big trouble.
If you encountered the "Bad Ending" as in the Human dies, it's because you haven't said "Yes" when previously, the Parents asked you to agree to work for them.
Ohhhhh
Tysm, I was so confused why Cato was so mad.
And it also mean I could encounter the Bad ending if i said No, no matter what I did with others choices ?
I'm sorry for the late reply because I didn't finish the game :(
So, just this minute finished this visual novel and it is beautiful. The story is wonderfully written and the visuals are gorgeous.

Had to stop there and have a little cry.
I believe the main reason you do not see the MC directly is so that it is easier for you to imagine yourself in his place.
Agree! You can rename the MC for that reason.
its very nice😢😢😢 next . I want new version 18
This VN is an absolute rollercoaster of emotions, I almost teared up during specific moments. It's absolutely amazing. I love it.
Can I ask something
Adastra has good ending or bad ending ?
Just want to ask because I can't stand bad endings :(
The endings are:
- Bad Ending
-Meera Ending
- Good Ending
As far as I'm aware....
Wait, it has many endings ??
The endings are decided by your choice ?
btw thanks <3
Yes, there are not many choices and only one leads straight to the bad ending, do you want me to spoil that for you? (If you want to avoid that)
Thanks but not now because I want to finish the game without being spoiled.
Btw can you tell me what will happen in the bad ending ?
I can't without spoilers, but I think you will figure how the bad ending is without reaching it
It's been 6 days and I think you have finished though, so I'm tossing it here. If you guys haven't finished yet, don't read! :P
Good ending: The Parents showed you a vision of the Future with Amicus. You trust them and feel safe about your mission. In order to have this ending, you have to answers at least two of thoses choices:

In order to obtain this ending, you must answer "I refuse" (or something) when the Parents ask you to submit to the benevolent will of the Parents (my ass LOL).
Enjoy Adastra as much as possible, now imma go back to cuddling my husbando Amicus *wheeze*
Can I just say, this novel is fucking amazing. I cannot put into words the emotions Adastra made me felt. I almost cried three times, I tensed up and relaxed multiple times, my heart was hammering, boner raging sometimes. This novel is pure GOLD!! I dread the day it comes to an end...
But really. If I could be trapped in any existence, taking another with me, it would be my bf and I to Adastra, visiting Khemia and all the other plantes..
Boner ra- ah, yes *wheezes*
Yeah. Amicus is my type, so its really easy for him to make me hard xD
The erotic parts are so we'll written you can feel the big wolf nuzzling your neck while you read lol
thinking if i wanna replay this since its literally been years since i last played it...but i'd have to go through all the pain again...eh worth it.
I played Adastra for the first time and what an emotional rollercoaster that was, I thoroughly enjoyed it. Genuinely felt the emotions of the main character at various stages it was wild. Loved the story and loved the music too. Now I just want my own Amicus ;-;
Sorry to say, but the Amicus plushie is currently sold out on Pawprint Press.
Still waiting on Likulau plush to restock...been checking every single day, think I'm going haywire...!
I feel HAD right now.
Hungry: Cannot cook to save my life...
Argumentative: Confronting instability on [redacted] forums.
Delightful: TSR finally got an update!
[Edit: Arches got an update too, LET'S GOOO!!!]

So what exactly is this site supposed to do, I mean is there anything specific that someone can do with it based on this visual novel or something?
its mostly just for fun but it can also give interesting insights in character analysis
Interesting, but some people disagree with the MBTI personality types for some of the characters; therefore, inaccurate labelling, but interesting nonetheless. I hope they improve/update upon it.
thats part of the reason why i posted it here
so more people know about it and help type the characters more accurately
Sometimes I wish there were more options involving which characters you could interact with more and possibly build a strong developing relationship with them, especially with the Egyptian Jackal.
Heck, when that Egyptian alien first made an appearance, I some timed wished the game had started out with that Jackal at the very beginning of the whole visual novel to begin with.
Amicus x Neferu, hot~~~
[Edit: Fine. Amicus x MC x Neferu. There, everyone happy.]
I was thinking more along the lines of Marco/MC x Neferu (and/or possibly Amicus included in that as well) while at the same time maybe mixing in a few other characters into that as well like say for instance Cassius, Alexios, and Cato if he can turn out to not be evil at the end through the main characters actions and interactions toward him through some method used in one way or another.
I mean Khemia seems to lead us to a Scipio x Neferu relationship, which could be really cool
You don't have the choice to top Amicus. In the first sex scene there is only one way it can happen. (Spoilers):
Though in the last sex scene, Amicus offers you the choice. Doesn't matter what you choose, only the images and the dialogues change, the outcome is the same. You shouldn't feel bad for topping the wolf lol
It is funny because if you know too much history you will roll your eyes at Adastra. But if you know just bits and pieces you can appreciate and understand some of the culture.
In ancient Rome, like in Adastra, it was socially acceptable for m/m sex. Who knows why. Maybe it was an accepted fetish to humiliate another straight person that way or if it was just friends helping each other release some steam. History doesnt know why but it was just socially acceptable. But ACTUALLY having a male lover as a male was looked down upon just as it is in Adastra. And like in Adastra an emperor shouldn't be the 'bottom'. / In short, when Rome conquered Greece it was actually Greek culture that ended up dominating Roman culture, especially within higher society. As you also might know, the Romans adopted the Greek gods but changed their names (to the planet names we are familiar with). And like us today, they may have changed the names of certain celebrations but the topics stayed the same, some of which were plain our orgies.
When Christianity came around it was an antithesis religion or slave religion as some philosophers call it. Because the slave cannot have glory, comfort, sex, and other things the masters took for granted, they viewed those as sin and said what makes you holy is temperance, fasting, abstinence, and so on. If you have looked at the passage of a man shall not lay with another man in the original language they use different words to describe "man". A more accurate translation would be no adult shall lay with a adolescent. This is because back then it was quite normal for 12-18 year olds to be with 20-40 year olds in a m/m relationship especially when away from their wives on long trips (cuz apparently gay sex with a substantial age difference doesnt count as cheating on your wife). Peculiar, and almost a traumatizing experience I bet for most adolescents these days, but whatever I guess.
Another informative Knowledge for my Brain wrinkles! thank you for the History given tho!
Very interesting to know. Thanks for sharing that
so after adastra is interesta or khemia ?
Interea is in the last weeks of mc on adastra khemia is two years after his departure
oh ok thanks u
Not exactly. Interea happens during the last 9 months of Adastra x)
so we have to play interea first right?
Yeah, playing Adastra then Interea then Khemia is the right order. Though I might say it doesn't matter as long as you begin with Adastra. Since Khemia is not a DIRECT sequel to the game (you don't play the human in Khemia)
YeS
If only this game was for iPhone I’d definitely play this 24/7.
Time to convert to android. You got a Mac at least?
yeah but a Mac is expensive nowadays.
So are iphones.
Yeah you are right,but still I’ll have to wait to get a computer to play this game.
Hey, Th3WayrVvolf, is it possible to contact you outside of itchio ? I want to talk to you about a few things
simibee33@yahoo.com
If anyone sends me spam (not you, WolfPuppet), you're just wasting your time. The above email is disposable.
Please, update the app for Android 12. I got a message from the system that says I could have problems playing the game since its an old version. I just re started It today.
I run the Betas of Android 12 as well. Just dismiss the message and launch the app, it works fine for me (Phone: Google Pixel 4a)
i LOVE the series. But i can't get to the game and i would love to play it- but im on samsung so if u can make it were you can play it on samsung- cause i dont really have the money to buy a new one but i might get one on my birthday. either way i LOVE the series on youtube obvi and please try and make it on samsung. :]
You can download the Android APK version? Samsung runs Android. Open Chrome on your Samsung, go to this very page, click on the Adastra 17-release.apk (279MB) with the little Android logo, and then play it ahah ^^
Samsung = Android.....
The last download option is for Android.....
Therefore, you can play Adastra on Samsung devices.....
thx can u send me the link for it
No, because the download link is right there.
Who wrote the music for this game? I would love to have the sheet music. I know some of it is available online, but not all of it. (I specifically want the sheet music for "quiet lullaby').
The OST is on Spotify, you can get all the music from there
Would be nice to have a custom soundtrack/vinyl record available for sale on Pawprint Press, just sayin Echo team~
You can still dig in the game's files and find the OST ahah
Yeah, but I want something tangible, pretty, and signed.
Since the OST on Spotify is not the EXACT one you here in the game, and Spotify is well... eh... Spotify... And that we have no other options, the game files are the only way to have all the music tbh
Could you pls tell me how I can get them from the files?
Playing Adastra for the first time in a week ago and finished it today is such a beautiful experience of filling with emotions and great execution in this excellent Visual novel game. it's filled with humor and seriousness and full of surprises to be sure but a welcome one. I am looking forward for another Thrilling journey again if the main like whole new sequel other than the two. (most likely referring to Adastra 2 if there is gonna be one continuing the perspective of the Human) and this is the only Visual novel that I felt very overwhelming like it should be a series, well it is now hahaha. still shocked and cried awfully like a baby at the end because it make me feel a lot connected with the characters and the story, especially Amicus at this point and somehow.. there is an end of the first Novel that had me emotionally devastated when it comes to an end basically ha ha ha ha ha. still all the experience from this Novel teaches me to be firm and steady from all of things like motivating me and to think a wise choice to make in the present. and to the point to acknowledging someone and learning about this examples of people. and although I am not very poetic at all, I am simply just sharing my emotional experience to be Honest. even I finished it by choosing the best choices.. I feel having 2nd thoughts playing again, even though I got The better one to say the least. but that doesn't stop me from Memorizing all the events that occurring in the entire Novel ho! ho! it's still here and forever will be! I am even out of words on what to say next ha ha ha. it feels like an eternity to play and get to attached to these types of fascinating and Unique characters and yes obviously Amicus! the main one to be precise. this is the only Novel game that drives me into an emotional rollercoaster and based on real problems in life that makes me understand certain types of things mostly and willing to look forward following this series as it goes on I hope so. and I will be astonished and thrilled if there is a new sequel. and wow. this is the only long feedback I have given and excuse me if there is a wrong grammar in my reply. anyways. I am off playing the second sequel!
TO THE STARS!
Just played again only to find myself chicken out at the end. I can't get to reach the end devastate myself again XD
literally same. its amazing theyre able to get such raw emotions like that! such a fantastic game
Ikr, I can't wait the update of Interea
YASSSS
Me playing Adastra again <3 <3
I played it a thousand times mhuahaha
My love for Amicus is endless
Just started again as well, can't get tired of this.
Adastra is finished. The story will MAYBE or maybe not continue in a game we do not know of, because Interea isn't a sequel but a spin-off (happening during Adastra) and Khemia, as far as I know, is SOME SORT of sequel but without the human, and I don't think he'll appear in this game. So, right now, the only answer I can give is: I don't know and I'm sad lol
ok guys hear me out. Adastra AU where the MC pilots the ship back to earth but crash-lands it, and then has to live with Amicus and harbor him from the authorities, whilst getting into all sorts of shenanigans. basically it's the sitcom ALF. i call it ALFastra. does this have potential
You have caused me cringe!!! But that's only my opinion
I just finished reading it. WWHHHYYYYY DOES EVERYTHING GOOD HAVE TO END. I just want this to keep going forever (even though I know that's impossible). 15/10 would recommend
We need an 8 years later story, we definitely need it
I have to ask... Is there an order to the VNs? I want to play them but don't want to play out of order.
You play Adastra first (with the human and Amicus), then Interea (a spin-off, happening before the end of Adastra, with the human and Amicus), then you play Khemia, which is half a sequel, and half a spin-off, happening two years after the events of Adastra. In Khemia, you don't play as the human but as a Wolf named Scipio (but you meet again almost all the characters from Adastra)
Hey there, just hanging out for a new update on Interea, how are you doing?
good
I finally got it
Lavander smelling wolf!!
I just finished playing through Adastra a second time and Im wondering is there going to be a story that is set after the eight years or even the MC's point of view throughout his time on Earth? I understand we currently have Interea and Khemia in development but i would love to have a continuation of the Amicus story that is set after the events of Adastra.
Thats what we all hope for.......thats what we all hope for
me too im really hoping to see more after the 8 years

We are all waiting for the wedding!!
With Interea and Khemia, I think it's a good sign that dev is gonna expand from Adastra story.
I like how under more information dev suggest that an average session is a few seconds. I could not stop after start the game and dive like 9+ hours in a session.
But yeah, it feel like only a second pass when all thing finished.
