Max Massacre

Max Massacre is a visual novel set in a world where monsters, demons and other inhuman creatures prey on humanity. Humans are weak beside their oppressors, hunted for food and sport, and their numbers are dwindling.

Max and Celeste

Seventeen-year-old Max wants to become a hero and save humanity. He is already the strongest hand-to-hand fighter in his village and has killed low-level monsters, but the villagers fear and scorn him for his demonic aura. Despite their hostility, Max wants to protect them.

His childhood friend and love interest, Celeste, is the village’s strongest sorceress. She is intelligent, knowledgeable and well-liked, but takes a cynical view of humanity. She believes humans are no better than the demons who oppress them and opposes Max’s wish to become a hero and defend the villagers. She would leave the village in flames if Max would go with her.

One choice

As Max and Celeste go about their daily lives, they try to persuade each other to accept their views. The villagers’ fear and contempt for Max grow, giving Celeste reason to believe he will eventually abandon his hopes. A single choice determines the ending: whether Max convinces Celeste that humanity is worth protecting, or comes to see the people around him as his true enemies.
