Eternum
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android

Welcome!
I'm Caribdis and I'm creating Eternum, a choice-based visual novel made in Ren'py with tons of romance, mystery, humor, and much more!
____________________________________
Plot
You’re moving with your best friend to the city of Kredon, home to some of the best schools and universities in the country, to continue your studies. However, in Kredon, there’s only one thing everyone talks about: ETERNUM—the virtual, hyper-reality MMORPG game released a few years ago that revolutionized the world of technology.
With a neural implant that recreates the five senses, it becomes impossible to distinguish between the game and the real world.
Thousands of servers form the network of Eternum: from colorful, magic-filled fantasy worlds to foggy sci-fi cities, no world is beyond reach.
Nevertheless, looking beyond the surface, there's a darker side to this pretty facade: black markets, torture, rape, illegal content trafficking, unlawful assemblies, data theft… Eternum follows the rules of no man.
For some reason, governments turn a blind eye to this; there’s no regulation and no control. Some say it’s because the game is highly addictive, some say it’s because the market moves millions of dollars daily, some say those in power have been bribed, and others say… there’s something else going on.
And you? What’s your role in this story?
Well... That’s up to you now.

About me
The game currently has thousands of renders and animations, but it's still in development! This means that there's still a LOT of stuff to come! Many adventures and sexy moments await you!
In the meantime, you can take a look at my other game: Once in a Lifetime, which I already completed! As Eternum, it's totally free for everyone!
If you'd like to support the development of the game, please check out my Patreon or Subscribestar pages, where you can contribute to the creation of the game while having an active role, get Exclusive Content, get updates before anyone else, and much more!

what was the daring challenge for gallery?
Your game is just PERFECT !
I really love the story, how everything happened, and it's not just a sex game, there is a real story behind, and that's make the game just perfect !
I'm literaly dreaming every night about what could hapen next...
I cant wait for the next update ! I just want to see more of all the girls, they're all different but they still all really cute and just fucking kind (I think I'm falling in love with Alex...)
And thanks, really, for make a game so good like this and share it freely, is really nice from you ! <3
Same opinion bro. Dev have created a masterpiece.
i really love the story and music more than anything, i was wondering where you got the music from?
i hope there will be a gallery where you can re visit scenes (unless there already is and im stupid) so far Alex my favorite love me a girl with tattoos and a tough but sweet personality
There is a gallery but not every spicy picture is included. Just actual scenes.
thats what i was looking for lol where can i find it?
"Thank you for creating such an amazing game! I've been playing it before months, and the last update was incredible. I check regularly for news on the next one—can’t wait to see what’s coming next!"
Note:I am from a third world country in Africa... I couldn't send a tip (>.<)
I cant wait for the new Update!!! I felt it so hard when Nova said she Loves Visuel Novals.
This Game is Making me Go Crazy! LOVE IT!
Hello, dear Caribdis. Since the interval between the two versions of the game is so long, I would like to contact you to add functions such as cloud - based upload and download storage in the game.Such as<renpy sync>
Thank you again for creating such a perfect game.
When i downloaded the android version of the game on my phone, it didn't work it says that it cant access the file. (Plz help)
Here's an installation guide
thank ya
hey guys. i have a question: if someone plays without sex u got another ending or the same?
The game doesn't have endings yet, it's still in development.
EDIT: Yeah, I guess Twisted's interpretation of the question makes more sense :P
Gonna asume you mean the ending to the latest chapter, it's fixed and happens regardless if you're on the girls paths or not.
I tried no girl path and was saddened that it didn't actually change the outcome.
do i take the amulet from the founder?
yes, why not. immortality isnt bad thing right?
depends if there is any consequences
no known negative effects yet. But Caribdis' last game had a pair of seemingly inconsequential decisions lead to bad ends. So it's totally within the realm of possibility for it to have negative effects down the road.
i havent played it again yet still dunno if i should take it or not lol
Consider it a flag. It is not known what result this decision will lead to. It can either save someone in the future, or lead to negative consequences.
If you have read to the end of the current version, you may have noticed how the purchased trinket helped in a certain situation. If I explain in more detail, it will turn out to be a spoiler)
Also, there we have is very low possibility that Cari himself did not come up with why he offered this to us :D
Luna and penelope MADE ME GO CRAZYYYYY~ Great AVN!!!!
Right? RIGHT??? Great game!!
Are there any actual pregnancy scenes in this one? I LOVED Once in a Lifetime but was slightly disappointed when I didn’t really get to see any pregnant bellies
Based on previous game, that seems unlikely: pregnancy is likely to happen, but separate scenes for distended bellies in the story arcs wouldn't be worth doing even if the dev is as focused on it as you are (and he almost certainly isn't) and the seething unwashed masses, of which I am one, would rise in revolt if any of the girls were made unavailable for late-game missions because of gravid waddling. In game dialogue around the first trimester and closing scenes with kids seem far more likely. Maybe pregnant Eva moving in to the house because MC's magical 100% sperm can cross the line would work, but that's about it.
yeah, makes sense. Game is still great so far, just hope for a little bit more at the end than the last game
I didn't expect such a qualitative game.
I like to see how the characters, especially the MC, evolved.
The game takes quite a long time to finish (in its current state).
I give it a nice 8.5/10 for the moment, very few games of this kind come close to it.
Eternum discord link is broken, anyone have a new link that I can join? Much appreciated thanks.
Actually im just goimg to join the patreon. Anyone know if i get the wallpapers as basic rank?
The Discord link works, you just can't access it because it's age restricted. Go to the Family Center in the Discord settings, input your birthday, then try again.
The lowest support tiers don't include wallpapers; read their descriptions.
Delete this spoiler.
For real! How is this even allowed?
I took out the insult as soon as I typed it. But I am still thinking it.
I extracted the file according to every step but why is there no sound?
You mean moans? There are none. If you mean sound in general, I have no idea.
ฉากเพเนโลพีกับโนวา ไม่รู้ว่ามีใครเคยเจอบ้างนอกจากฉัน ไม่มีเสียงจริงๆ มีแต่เพลง
I need some help please. In some scenes I have just a Black Screen with Dialogue... what can j do please help. I am on Android
Do you have sound?
Your phone is not good enough.
I hope you never reduce the sexual content just because of some things some people say.
The game is 10/10 but I'm a simple guy, I'm not pretentious, I like the story and the characters but the reason why I don't delete the game after finishing it is the sex scenes, I hope you never change the way you make your games. Just like you did “Once in a lifetime”.
I’ve only ever played about three other games like this, and they all pale in comparison. I’m not even going to lie—I downloaded this while feeling down bad, so you can guess why I came to it. But the more I played, the less I cared about the sexual content. I ended up playing purely for the characters and their non-sexual relationships.
It got to the point where, if a scene involved a girl I really liked (mainly Luna), I’d skip the part where you take advantage of them. How is that even possible? I’ve played so many games, watched countless shows and movies, and nothing has ever made me feel this attached to a character. This game is something else.
The loneliness I feel after completing this game is no joke. It’s like there’s a void in me now. Sure, I could fix it by playing more games, but I don’t want to develop an addiction, and nothing else would compare. Don’t even get me started on how funny the game is—the humor is absolutely insane. The references, too, are spot-on. The Silent Hill reference with Luna? That was incredible, lmao.
It got to the point where, when Luna touched Annie and probably realized the MC had been with her, I felt so bad that I considered doing a run-through with no one but Luna. This game is insane, and I’ll definitely be donating to support it. I’m also eagerly waiting for future updates.
For now, though, I need to focus on myself again. I originally got this game because I was going through a big relapse in my self-improvement journey, but ironically, it ended up inspiring me to improve even more.

My Character Rankings
Based on looks:
1. Penelope
2. Luna
3. Dalia
4 (tie). Nova
4 (tie). Annie
4. Alex
5. Nancy
Based on personality, family, and who I’d actually want to end up with:
1. Luna (Her family is hilarious and cool. She’s just insane in the best way—I don’t know why I like her so much, but it’s not some weird demon-girl fetish. She’s just so cute under all that tough exterior. Honestly, I feel like a lot of people don’t appreciate her as much as they should.)
2. Dalia (Her sense of humor is amazing.)
3. Penelope
4. Nova
5. Annie
6. Alex
7. Nancy
And don’t get me wrong—Nancy is hot and all, but I’m not into older women, especially in situations like that involving family dynamics. Also don't get me wrong, I still very enjoy the sex scenes and they need to stay as frequent as they are haha. Just the story to add onto the game is perfect.
---
Thank you so much for this experience. Caribdis, this is the only game that has ever made me feel so deeply. I’ve played a lot of sad games, but this one hit differently. I’ll definitely be making a donation to support it.
10/10
I would say there will be a threesome between Luna, Annie and the MC. instead of just watching Annie and the MC having sex.
but I agree which Luna is the best
Oh hell no 😭
Thank you so much for the kind words and for donating!!!!
started to play it yesterday,oh fuck it was so funny i couldn't stop laughing almost died
Ill never understand anyone who feels anything from any story. I may get a chuckle or two bt i mostly feel nothing. and im only playing these games for the porn. I honestly have rarely ever developed any connection to any character. ALl i care about is getting all the ladies nude and enjoying the sight of them.
Me too, I like the story and I laughed a lot but I give more priority to the porn, the scenes and the girls.
I connect with the characters as I like them but back to the topic, I come for the sex scenes.
That's why I don't understand those who say “the more I play the less I care about the sexual content” it's like you're telling the author that all the sex scenes he does are superfluous or that he should remove them.
Nah the scenes are very nice, its just i dont know why but I somehow was into the character development. Maybe its because I like story games a lot too. The thing I don't get it that the game takes hours of your time to complete, and why do that to just jack off when you can just go to the hub?
We see things differently, for me to see naked female characters in a good scene is something like art, I like to appreciate the aesthetics and delight my eyes with a good scene, especially if the author is so careful.
For me it is to watch, to delight my eyes with a scene and if it makes me masturbate then my goal would be to feel pleasure, instead of just masturbating and cumming.
For me sex and nudity is more than just masturbating while watching.
But well, points of view think about it if you want.
Yeah thats fair. By the way, when I said story, I mainly meant the character development with the girls.
Haha maybe im just a lonely guy 🔥😭
do i pick heads or tails?
If this is a wt (walkthrough) question then there is a basic wt among the game downloads and I've written a more detailed wt which you can find here, third download option.
SPOILERS
But if it's just this: You should pick tails, even though the consequence of this choice hasn't revealed itself yet in the current version of the game. Why tails is better is still up for speculation.
alrighty thank you :)
The .EXE file named eternum-32.exe is tagged by an antivirus as malware, has multiple malware parents (hacked version of this game distributed online) and contacts malicious ips (tested in a sandbox enviorment by virus total tool).
Virustotal info:
https://www.virustotal.com/graph/62cb04500df8dcec7c13526799e0326108a9b54b9cbd1ff...
EDIT:
Tested it more thoroughly, multiple files get flagged by 2 antivirus providers, usually when u get 1/2 flags its a FP, still it shouldnt get any. Run this kind of games sanboxed, in a virtual machine or in an air gapped machine.
EDIT2:
I also sanboxed it and seems fine so most likely a False positive, still i dont recommend running on the main machine, run only 0/0 scores and sandboxed with tools like sandboxie, malware can be tricky to catch specially with signature based software.
Since Eternum is a top-shelf game, there are certainly malware infested versions of it out there, which are only very slightly modified. Could your virus software tell the original apart from the malicious one? I don't know. Even if a dev is 100% trustworthy, it's still possible that their accounts get hijacked and used to distribute malware, so a healthy sip of caution never hurts.
Certainly, i tested his version though, the problem here is that some of the libraries, code templates or assets that he uses are also used in some malware, he should check that, i believe getting a score of 0 flags is important and even more important due to the fact that's top shelf. A score of 0 doesn't mean its safe but getting flagged while being one of the most popular its also not a good thing. As a bonus piece of intel: is extremely easy to by pass a signature based antivirus, if i take his game, add a comment in the first line writing the letter "a" the hash is complety different (signature based antivirus compare hashes with a huge database of virus hashes and if it matches then its a corrupted file). Behaviour based antiviruses are other thing but they are kinda hard to deal with (called Next gen antiviruses). Final thoughts, the file is most likely clean, but use sandboxie at least, its free and your data is very important, I personally use an air gapped old pc, air gapped means not connected to the internet.
As a solution he should publish his game hash and make sure that everyone has access to it, if u download eternum then hash it, and the hash is different than the one provided by him means the download is corrupted.
My zip file for the 0.7.5 PC version has this SHA256 hash, downloaded in April this year: ea0fa8e630dc1f368d400cc969b4169316b81eba2dadb35659b18dcd3a8366c0
Welp im not touching this game then. Then again, if u really want your pc safe, u cant connect to the internet ever which defeats the purpose.
her clothes reminds me of that flower from demon slayer and tokyo ghoul
pls dont be a foreshadow
Be honest with me.............
Luna
Alex
Nova
Annie
Dalia
Penelope (Penny)
Eva
Who do you think is the prettiest?
Just based on appearance, it would be Penny, but considering everything, it would be Annie, because company is the longest and most sincere confession.
Any answer than Nova is incorrect. (Penny is a close second though NGL)
Luna
Cant wait to see what Cari is cooking up in the future.
heads or tails?
Give me head
not that type of head 😏 (but heads of tails does this impact the game depending what i choose?)
Yeah it probably does
Ngl I thought the comments were mad glazing but I was wrong, this is actually peak.
This game should be mandatory playing for anyone making a game within the genre. I tried the completed game Once in a Lifetime but I really couldn't get into it, the models didn't help either. However... I made an account just so I could write this. The writing is incredible and super hot. You can tell the creator is very talented and puts in a ton of hard work.
3D models can be extremely uncanny and janky unless they are AAA perfect and I won't lie at first I did think it looked like a bargain bin jank-fest because of the models (they don't look bad for the genre) but if you actually give it a try, you can't stop.
I fell in love with the story and characters and I want this game to never end. Not even about the sex scenes necessarily although the Alex one... omg... But I just can't get enough of it. I secretly wish this game keeps getting developed and just doesn't end.
It's not often that I pick something up and I can't put it down, once in a while a game or a book has that hold on you and I really did not expect this game to have that effect on me, but it absolutely does.
I have never used itch.io before, and never donated to anyone before but I can't not give something for this. Thank you so much for creating it!
Also happened to me with companion of darkness and this game...........ngl I just like Luna
Thank you so much for donating! 💗
Eternum No doubt is the No.1adult game. Both graphics & animation are top class. Story is thrilling & top tier. All girl are top tier beauties. Well it's may not be perfect but by far the best for me.
There are some games that have one of these qualities but lack other. Like if some game have top tier girls but suck at animation & story while some game have both got great story & decent animation but suck at graphics & girl model's.
Thank you so much!! :D
I have been in love with their work since I played Once in a Lifetime (go play it if you haven't). It's this group that makes me want to get into making eroge. Keep up the amazing work, looking forward to what happens next, especially with that cliff-hanger. I will be donating once Christmas hasn't got my budget by the b...
Thank you so much in any case!!
was supposed to be playing the game but ended up vibing to the music in the scene when annie sleeps in your room
Why is the android version a zip file and not an APK
there's an instruction included in the zip
Because with the 0.7 update the game grew too large for the APK format.
I loved playing this game, it's not my favorite genre, it started as a test, but as soon as I saw the story I couldn't stop, all the references to comedy throughout the game made me want to see what would happen, and I loved it, I'm rooting for the sequel, I'll make a donation as soon as possible.
Thank you so much in any case!! Donations are very appreciated ❤️
well, I just finished the 0,7 version. Let me just say, that I enjoyed it very much, to the point where i was even debating how will the story unfold next. Great writing. Perfect example of "I came here for the "plot" but stayed for the plot".
Can't wait for more
Thank you!
uh question is there any consequences for punching axel
Only good things
oh thanks at the part in the school on the stairs with Axel and i wanna punch him but punched him last time didnt know if there would be consequences if i keep punching him 😂
Wow I did not know these games were capable of good writing and genuinely funny moments. I am absolutely going to be donating once I have a little bit of extra money.
Thank you so much for donating! ❤️
i cant believe this game is actually free, ill definitely go back and donate when the time comes
Thank you very much for donating and supporting 💗
Please Please Please 0.8😭😭
Patience, it's almost ready. Just a little while longer.
are you able to give us a estimate on how much longer it will take till its done
As I am not Caribdis, not really.
But as others have said the last progress update on Nov 1st marked completion at 86%. There should hopefully be another update on progress sometime in the coming week. The last 20% of a development cycle tend to be the most complex.
Yes, Twisted just said it better than myself
I'm aiming for a mid December release (keep in mind there are always some time of early release on Patreon/Subscribestar)
is there a discord page or something i can join to keep up to date?
I'm waiting from 0.6 for at least updates. I holding on until 0.8 ...
