Reviews:

I bought this game a while back, and it was easily in my top 3 favorite visual novels, and I've played dozens! Recently I went to look up the soundtrack on YouTube, and found that Finn's theme song, the sound of Silence, has been taken down, or made private. I was wondering if there's another way to get a hold of that song? It happens to be my favorite song of the soundtrack. Thanks in advance!

Generally just wanted to say Devs: you set the bar so so high with this game. Please all take care of yourselves <3 You will undoubtedly make great games in the years to come and I can't wait to see what you have up your sleeves. Thank you for not only pouring your hearts into development, but valuing each other and the community in the process.

I've played your amazing VN I don't know how many times but I just thought for the first time that I don't know what "La yaeuhg xa zaena" means. It's in the scene where MC is in the cave with Alkar and Omen and not in a relationship with either of them.Sorry if the question has already been asked several times but I can't find the answer to what "La yaeuhg xa zaena" means anywhere.Can you, or anyone else who knows, tell me the translation, please?

So excited to finally be replaying this amazing game. I LOVE the voice acting!! I wanted to ask though. Is it normal for the game to be stuttering a bit? When text comes on the screen, or sometimes even the character sprite, there's a little bit of a stutter/delay. I didn't know if it was just me and I should maybe try reinstalling the game. Thanks ever so much for all the team does. I also appreciate the new content that comes out for the WTNC characters. Eager to play the new side story once I'm done with my replay.

Final words:

Play as a renowned Hunter; a creature slayer who has been called to the quiet, strange little town of Lunaris to assist the local Enforcers with an investigation into a series of unsettling and unexplained supernatural murders. Immerse yourself in the world of witches, vampires, demons, and Lycans as you slowly unravel the dark mystery that lies deep within the roots of the town. The question is, are the creatures of the night the ones you should really be afraid of? You might even fall in forbidden love along the way. When The Night Comes is a queer, narrative-driven, supernatural visual novel originally completed in October 2019. The new version of the game includes partial voice acting, new artwork, a codex, and improved UI.
