About Burn the Midnight Oil
A supernatural neon-noir romance visual novel about monsters, love, and other horrors. Solve crimes, uncover dangerous secrets, and steal (or break) some hearts.
It’s the 80s. Supernaturals flock to the neon-soaked streets of North Haven, where they hide in plain sight amongst the ceaseless nightlife. Playing as the flirtatious vampire detective Circe or the brash hellhound cop Dante, you must solve cases that threaten to unveil dangerous secrets from our protagonists’ own pasts.
When the night draws to an end, it will be up to you and the choices you make whether Circe and Dante resist (or embrace) the darkness within their own hearts.
