About

Hearts of Olympus is a mobile visual novel where you play as a cursed figure trapped in a temple, feared for turning others to stone.

The story unfolds across mythic settings like bustling city-states and the Underworld, blending action scenes with dialogue-driven choices. Your relationships with the gods deepen through branching paths, balancing romantic tension with the practical hurdle of your curse creating physical barriers between characters. The game stands out for its tightly written character dynamics and the way your decisions directly clash with the supernatural rules of the curse. With over 100 branching scenes reported in early builds, players can pursue multiple endgames shaped by trust, betrayal, and sacrifice.

Hidden away in a remote temple, you’ve spent your entire life alone, cursed with a Medusa-like aura that slowly turns those around you into stone. Feared by your family and village, you’ve never stepped outside—until the so-called hero Perseus storms in, bent on ending your life. Just before Perseus can fulfill his mission, three gods—Ares, Hades, and Apollo—intervene, saving you from his blade.

Together, you’ll travel through vibrant Greek cities, the shadowy Underworld, and even the heights of Mount Olympus.

With enemies closing in, gods manipulating the strings of fate, and your heart caught between three divine beings, your journey will be one of self-discovery, courage, and transformation. Will you conquer your curse, find true love, and rewrite your story among the gods? Your destiny awaits in this thrilling visual novel!
