Reconnected VN
A downloadable Visual Novel for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android
CONTENT WARNING: Reconnected includes sexual themes, scenes of extreme graphic violence, and is not for the faint of heart!
After war ravages the Solarian system, the defeated species of Earth are exiled to the Andromeda galaxy. Millennia later, the warring factions have evolved and forgiven, agreeing to reconnect with one another and share their cultures. Peace seems to be a fleeting promise when diplomats and
civilians alike are mysteriously murdered at the hands of an unknown assailant. Terror and fear grips the city as the killer is on the prowl, and you find yourself locked in the middle of the investigation.
You play as the diplomat sent from the Solarian system, and have to fight to overcome the struggles and challenges of this strange new world with the help of your friends.
Solve the case, protect the people you care about, explore the world, and fall in love through "Reconnected"! A one of a kind horror/mystery/romance visual novel. Always remember, Things on Zenalyr are Rarely What they Seem to Be.
Reconnected uses adaptive story telling elements to hide clues and evidence to the mystery WITHIN the text and game itself. Headphones or access to audio is HIGHLY recommended so you can pick up on all the clues!
This VN is in Beta, and many character sprites are still missing! It's being worked on daily, and will be updated frequently!

For the overall I have enjoyed this story so far. I have some minor gripes with the character you perceive through (they definitely give me bipolar vibes), but for the most part I have gotten past that. Also, amusingly enough a song from League of Legends, "Bite", always makes me think of this game. Tell me if anyone else gets that feeling.
Bite - League of Legends
This VN has such wonderful writeing and i am very excited for the new update^^ keep up the amazing work! <3
Hey! Im the only one who played on android and can't continue after this?
You are on a significantly older version of the game, as that scene quite literally no longer exists (due to the bug you have)
Re-download the current version and you should be fine!
Ohhh thanks!!!
I'm enjoying the VN so far my only gripe is the zenalyrian, i just cant get behind Acadia, she's flawed and that's fine, i just cant get behind her, her racism hits a little close to home for me, so props to the writing for being so good
this is a compelling vn so far. When the mext update. I wanna know what happens next
Can't wait for the next update
Question, Do Vulterus (or in general Vulperians ) clothes come with holes in it so they can pass through easily since the spikes on Vulterus body come from his skeleton or body structure(?). Also do all Vulperians have spikes or only the royal class ones? (BTW The animation looks sick add sound if u want, can’t wait to see what you’re cooking. XOXO)
All vulperians have spikes, and I'd asusme their clothes come with the holes haha
First of all thanks for the reply and also inhale
Are clothes custom-made or every Vulperian has spikes in the sames spots? Is every Vulperian the same size (More or less) or are there like albino alpha/Apex version wich are smaller/bigger? How big are Vulperian cubs? Are females smaller than males? Will we meet Kiara and if so will she have her own sprite? What happens to Kai’s temperature if he has a fever or if he’s ill? Are we ever gonna get reconnected merchandise?
…
Sorry About being a nuisance I’m just bored. You don’t have answer this; my job here is done until we meet again.
Ahhh when is the next update!!! I love this sm i just cant waittt i must have moreeeeee
Much of what i played so far makes me feel more like i am being preached to and told what my morals should be more then playing a game.
Is it bad that I like Jayce more than kaI and am kinda sad there isn't a route for him.
Not bad at all! We love Jayce haha. In his defense, there aren't routes for any of the other characters either
Atticus is the one I want to scoop up an protect. Mostly because I have friends who are like him with the same issues and I see how people treat them. Att needs someone in his corner who TRUSTS him to be able to take care of himself.
☝☝ This guy gets it !!🔥🔥 I JUST WANT TO BE A HIMBO PROTECTING MY PRECIOUS TWINK FOR ONCE😭
Personally I'm a big fan of the big scary powerful but inhumane guy with the lil cinnamon roll moral compass. Like "I will commit all the warcrimes but I like you so I won't." There's both excellent comedy and drama potential to it~
Atticus is easily the most relatable character and lowkey my biggest furry crush in this VN. He has similar vibes to Anwill from Void Dreaming who I am also head over heels for. I love me a neurodivergent awkward cutie pie twink character.
Its been almost 100 days and the way they left it was such cliff finger i wanna the next update soon :'(
I'm actually kinda obsessed with the main theme, lately I keep just having the VN open when I'm my pc and not watching a video or playing anything else, is it a royalty free track or did a furry musician compose it?
Main title theme is Tears in Rain by Scott Buckley (most songs are by scott buckley, some are custom composed) All his music is CC B.Y. 3.0 CR claim, so they can be used in vns <3
The next update is for cont?
I know it's an excellent visual novel, I can't wait to read the sequel
I'm 99% sure the light-blue voice is Aetherion
I've only played this game once and I got the ending where Vulterus (I think) killed me.
How do I get other endings please help😭😭😭
Not gonna lie homie, I have no idea what you're talking about haha. I wish I could help though!
Well like after Atticus found me in the hallway I chose to not tell him what I saw on the camera footage while with Talis and he told me to go speak with Vulterus but Vulterus told me to meet him later or tomorrow I forgot and then I THINK when I got to the point where we should have met he was in a dark corner and he said "you actually came" or something like that and then I got a to be continued screen.....
I wanna keep dating with Kai plz help me😔
That's just the end of what is published, you didn't die haha!
Lok thanks, I was reading some comments and I saw you comment that choices can change your ending and I was getting scared I had to do everything again😭😭😭😭 can't wait for next update then!!😋😋
After reading this novel, I was impressed, to say the least—although, given the kind of person I am, maybe thats why? I am quite strict about what I read, and not every work can make such an impression on me as this novel did. Overall, I really liked the rather unusual and intriguing plot, but I can say that in some places I think there are a few understatements and rough edges (pls dont take it personally i feel like an asshole when I say this :v because the novel is still quite new and it will get even better in the future, Im sure!). I also liked the characters and the way the author builds the relationships between them (damn, Kai is really cute i wanna hug him so much :3), but I think they went a little overboard with the emotions. The characters are a bit too whiny ?! But nvm, thank you for your hard work and I really love your novell and looking forward to your future updates and I wish you all the best! :3
Ive absolutely fallen in love with this VN so far. This is a horror novel that does NOT hold back and its pretty brutal at times, and I love it for that. It makes it feel like there are stakes and tension here. You really don't know what comes next
I love the characters. They're all so comfortable to read and different. The MC has had a rough start, and has some room to grow, but I feel things will get better for him. I also love the atmospheric music and visuals in this novel. Keep up the great work, this is a modern gem 👌
Thank you so much for your kind words <3 I really appreciate it! Make sure to leave a review if you feel it deserved it, and join the discord!
First time touching this and the first scene makes me nervous for the rest of it... I dont do great in scary situations.
There was a problem when I updated the novel; I play on mobile, and when I updated it, I couldn't access my saved games, so I started all over again.
Yep. That's how it's supposed to be
Will there be a route towards the black wolf Vulterus?
Awww man. I really like how this is coming out. I wanna see how Kai's relationship develops with the MC, mostly heheh. Anyway, thanks for this :3
Are there routes?
The story is linear at this point in time, but decisions will determine your ending.
Oh thanks for the info!
Man, this VN is making me to beg for more! Just read the recent update and felt satisfied with the aftermath of the nightclub scene and how Kai and Eco are discussing it with proper communication etc. I cannot wait for the next update. 😀
Absolutely fantastic!!! One of the best VNs I've ever read, full of story, twists and more. I wish there were more NSFW scenes
Honestly, this vn easily gets into my top 5 favourites of all time.
The writing and the story is absolutely astonishing. Id love to see more of this one soon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Keep up the good work ‼️
I didn't expect to get so engrossed in this story, I am DYING for more! I am also very interested in seeing more from Vulterus (sorry Kai :P)
PLEASE I NEED MORE I LOVE THIS VN!!!
Thank you so much! Feel free to leave a rating if you think it deserved it <3
Pls tell me there will be an atticus route
Gosh atticus is a cutie
I would die for Atticus.
Eco's full face is intentionally not shown, and intentionally will never be fully shown until the end.
It's a very nice story that I enjoy very much :). definitely something good to read.
Absolutely amazing, the conflict, drama, plot twist, everything is masterfully done, hours reading non stop, gasping as another impactful thing happened. All characters made me feel a wide variety of emotions, a testament on how well they're written. I can't wait to read all the next chapters. Kudos!
ill say this "you got lucky" i was about to drop this vn after the cold opening and somewhat terrible corny writing in the beggining but after me and my friend pass that opening this story hooked us like a fishing rod,
There's no words to describe how much I and my friend felt in love with the political drama and universe you have set here, and i await with obsolute intrigue for the next updates,
that said i few nitpicks of the story, for starters the eyes nearly made me laugh and could have done better to make the reader feel dread when they saw it, maybe making the eyes blank as to give away that since that what ever you are speaking with is beyond the living and a few "horror" parts that could have been done with a bit more kick with the imagery like seeing your friends with black eyes to signified that they are either dead or possesed giving the horror of watching your friends being lost to the darkness,
"seeing your friends with black eyes to signified that they are either dead or possesed giving the horror of watching your friends being lost to the darkness"
That's what the bloody glitch sprites are <3
i know just a thought if you wanted to go harder on the spook factor
Well, just finished reading build 3, and all I can say is damn you for that cliffhanger... How could you do this to us?!
(Also this has quickly become one of my top 5 VNs of all time, absolutely can't wait to see more! Especially more of Vulterus :3)
Yeah me too. Here is hoping that happens
I might be in the minority here, but I want to see more between the MC and Atticus. Someone like that could potentially be good company, if you can see past and perhaps even help with their own problems you encounter. 👍
Great story and plot! Really love Kai's design here, and all the sprites in general. Is the transport craft from the beginning a render of Space Perspective's, Spaceship Neptune? More specifically its interior? Great reference if so 😁
I gotta say, the relationship between MC (main character) and Kai is extremely cute, and their first intimate scene really caught me by surprise🥰. Really looking forward to more of these "situations"😏. But I am also curious about Vulterus (which by the way you guys really hit the spot on his design, so attractive 🥰🥰) and his interactions with MC. If these two are also going to interact in a more intimate level, I am looking forward to see it happen. Also hot headed characters like him are my favorite type of date😏
Just finished the beta and I am loving the story so far. But I am guessing the game itself is still far from finished right? If It is, it's a bummer cuz boy I want to play the rest of it so bad 😭. In any case, I ll be patient and wait. Keep up the great work 👍
The story's still going, and I expect the art and background will get updated soon.😅
Ngl, I kinda wanna date Vulterus
Same, homie
Me too. Hot headed characters like him are just my type 😏. Cant wait to see his romance side of the story
Wait, you can date other characters?! I thought the only option was Kai?
Well so far Kai is the only option, but the decision to add more love interests depends on the creator. Here is hoping that happens.
ooo
You definitely can't at this moment in time haha.
aw
Hold on, are you saying it'll be possible later? And how would you do that, 'cause you'd have to tweak things at the start of the story and write whole other out come 😅?
If he wasn't such an ass then sure😂
Vulterus , Vulterus, Vulterus!!!
