Sofia? is a queer adventure mystery/horror game where you spent the night at your boyfriends place until you are interrupted by an unforeseen guest.
"You are different. You are special. You may just have what it takes to become a god."
Trapped in a seemingly hopeless evening, can you figure out the truth or will you remain forever in the dark?
--------------------------------------------------------------

[!!! Please play through the standard version of the game first to make sure it completely runs on your system. Any additional content in the extended edition can be either accessed from the main menu or requires very little replaying. Also, the extended edition is only available as a windows build. If you do not own any windows devices, please do not purchase it. Update: There is a mac build in the extended edition_win folder now, but it is not official and will not work on newer mac devices.

Software: RPG Maker MV
Development time: May 2021-September 2021 (on and off)
This game has been developed for Windows and intended for ages 17 and up.
Mac and Linux builds are available, but I can't test them, so I can't guarantee that they will work. If they do not, please play the browser version.
Also please be aware that this game is not supported on any MAC device running macOS Big Sur 11.0 or versions following afterwards. This is due to changes that were made to the OS that disable RPG Maker MV from properly running, and therefore disable any games made in the engine as well.
--------------------------------------------------------------
For content creators:
You are free to record/stream and share content about the downloaded standard windows version of this game. DO NOT stream or record the extended edition, the browser version or the mac and linux builds. Also, you must include the credits at least once, without fast forwarding them or include part of the credit.txt (mainly the music part) in your description.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Update: Previous bug for browser gameplay has been fixed. If you got an error message before, please replay the game or else it will show up again. The recommended way to play this game is by downloading the windows build and play it on a windows device, so please do so if you can, as some cutscenes do not work too well in browser and I can't test the mac and linux builds.
If you encounter a bug please read the debug.txt included in the windows builds (+ available for download if you are playing the web version or other builds) and contact me if your bug isn't listed. (E-mail: hatogegames@gmail.com or via twitter DMs @Hatoge_)
Also if you purchased the extended edition and are softlocked (cannot continue the game due to a bug) please e-mail me so I can figure out a way to refund you. (hatogegames@gmail.com)

I want to create a french translation patch of your game, to make it more accessible to the french who're shitty in english. How can I find a file with all the texts of the game ?
the first time i played this game i never understood it, i still dont, but love the game in a whole, again i just dont understand it.....
i got my first ending. FIOOOO
also i played previously on an itch account and i couldn't get back into that account is there any way i can recover that save progress
someone stop me from making comments i've made like seven at this point haha
ost is fire🔥
#relatable
the second you start playing you just get hit by...
DUN DUN DUN DUN
probably the second best soundtrack ever besides Undertale and thps2 and need for speed prostreet haha
it keeps giving me this error after I die to the gas in the present and it wont let me progress :(
Which version is this? If it's the browser version, which broswer are you using and have you already tried clearing your chache?
It's the browser version, I'm using Google Chrome and I admittedly don't know what "clearing your Chache" is-
Click the three dot menu icon in the upper right corner, select "More Tools" > "Clear Browsing Data". Select "Cookies and Other Site Data" and "Cached Images and Files," then click "Clear Data." If that doesn't fix it, I'm not sure I can do much since this since this is the first and only time I've ever seen this error and I haven't been able to replicate it, I'm sorry :( If you don't mind replaying to that point, I would recommend playing the downloaded version.
i want a portuguese translation ;(((((((((
There are several problems with your Linux version. It may be a compatibility problem with the latest Ubuntu versions only. I tried to solve all the ones I can but there's a.dat file that seems just out of date with the system and I can't do much about it.
Web version seems to work find though.
I think rpgmaker mv only exports to a very specific (and old) linux version, I couldn't get any of my games to work on my steamdeck either, for example. I've left it up for the few people it does work for (same with the mac version), but it's definitely not ideal :( Sorry you went through the trouble of trying to fix something that was doomed from the start
it's fine as I said the web version is working fine it's just that I thought I might aswill report it but that makes sense
I love this game sm ive played for atleast an hour i just gotta get off before i overload my small brain. i plan to come back to it but i gotta find a new game so my brain dosent malfunction. currently stuck but still LOVE it
i have no words to say thats so peak...I love how in first time its look likes some cute game, but it has awell written plot with interesting characters and u get stuck in it for at least an hours. how many end it have?
I love this game, I dunno what ending I got but I'm definitely going to play this again!!! I love Fio sm, I WILL protect him with my whole life!!! I gasped so many times during this game, the story is just perfect. (I'm also one of the people who almost cried...) ♡
I got endings 1 and 5, next up 8!
Two different ratings from two people who played this at once. Both five stars, for probably different reasons:
Person 1: I honestly almost cried finding out what was happening and honestly I cheered when Sofia died. Also I adore Fio.
Person 2: Great story-writing elements, great plot, and such a specific use of silence, lack of colours, music, and everything to string it all together to a perfectly tragic tale. Will keep these writing elements in mind. Definitely didn't nearly scream at some of the spookier parts, but that makes it all the better. 10/10, would get traumatised to again.
i got two endings so far and DAMMN poor fio...
why is there a bunch of numbers?
because math is scary
oh haha
so true tho
math is cool until the alphabet starts coming in
Me gusto mucho saque un final en un día! pero hay alguna guia para los otros finales? no se muy bien que hacer para conseguirlos T-T
esta en español?
how can i open up the Menu ? im paying on the website and i dont know how to open it.. pls help meeee
the menu pops up when you press escape on the keyboard
This game was pretty good. The whole story and the concept of it were just amazing. I need more like this. Loved the atmosphere and how it started over after Fio or Crow died again. That was pretty cool.
Wow, this game was really good! The whole plot is really interesting. I really connected with the characters and wanted everyone to be happy.
on the mac ver of the game it says that there has been an error and that i should report it. is that just me...?
I've made a statement regarding the mac version in the description, (right above the 'for content creators' section) unfortunately it doesn't work properly on newer devices
my bad i did not read that.
the game was very interessting! I like that what you do before going to bed makes a difference for the ending, but how could you not play with him?!?!?! Thats so cute!
Its also very disturbing, but it's an horror game with a big warning so it's what you're expecting^^°
I liked it! The art ist also very cute!
OK SO I HAVE SO MANY QUESTIONS. Huge spoilers ahead for- uh- one specific ending DONT READ IF HAVEN'T PLAYED
So about the ending where there's a pandemic
I DON'T GET WHAT HAPPENED THERE AT ALL?? What exactly happened for the world to end?? Did Crow cause this? Is this toxic gas in the atmosphere the same one Icarus gifted us? And about the iterations, everytime Fio died, did a new iteration replace him every single time?? Would that mean there's actually no real Fio?
Also, what was Icarus's motive for killing Fio over and over again? I haven't got the other endings yet so idk if that's explained but anyways I'm actually really interested in the lore I wanna know everything :((
why have you stolen my brain and all the thoughts in it?
This is an incredible game. The nuances were fascinating and disturbing, and stayed with me long after I stopped playing, or 'became a god.' I do hope someone can list the 8 endings so I can see which ones I haven't achieved yet, though.
Me stopping playing cus FIOOOOOO NOOOOO
will be playing again for the other endings! this was so gooood
also it doesn't work on older linux devices, however, i used crouton and not crostini because my computer just won't let me. The game will open but it gives you a "UnknownError: illegal access".
NOOOO NOT FIOOOOOO BTW i loved the game!!!
I got the 4th Ending, which is pretty decent as well as the 8th one BUT i still need a guide to 8th End as well as the other endings, is there any way link to know the guide for all of them?
i cant even say goodbye to Fio even though i played with him everyday and even found the code in the drawer :((
LET ME KISS HIM GOODBYE BUT HOW!!?!?!
i'm sorry if this has already been asked and answered or is plainly shown in the description somewhere but is there a soundtrack for the game that's out? i really enjoyed the music lol :>
or if the music is pulled from other places what the names of those pieces are
THIS IS SUCH AN AMAZING GAME OMG (I am crying tho bc I WANT THEM TO BE HAPPY)
I'm so happy I was blessed with the chance to play this game, like one of the comments said earlier, it made me so sad to have completed it. Nothing will ever measure up :,)
Okay first of all how dare you do that to Fio?? He's the sweetest of little guys and the only thing that he deserved in this game was Crow.
Second of all, this game is amazing and I desperately need more. My friend & I played the whole thing in a couple sessions and it's one of those games that has you so hooked that you genuinely feel a little sad once you've completed it.
the game seems really good though i am not done with the game just yet! but is there a way to save your game progress yourself so you dont lose progress with the autosaves?
Absolutely enjoyed playing this game. What a creative story and amazing art. Thank you very much!!
what are the controls
awesome game! I did et stuch though one the run after fio’s fourth death (I think it was the fourth)
This story was so good. I went in completely blind and it blew me away
this game was genuinely one of the best games I've ever played. As a person planning to major in psychology and minor in philosophy this horror game in its entirety was an amazing experience. I was truly baffled by how this game effected me. The ending and all. I genuinely love this game with all my heart! <3
