The Freak Circus
《 The Freak Circus 》
Of horrors
The Circus of Horrors has arrived in town.
Uncover its secrets and face the terror it hides, all while being led by Pierrot, the silent yandere, or Harlequin, his seductive rival.
Don’t be fooled by their smiles, they’re not what they seem.
You work at a café, and one day, on your way to work, fate leads you to cross paths with Pierrot. That’s when his obsession begins. But he’s not alone, his stage rival decides to join the game, turning this twisted dance into a dangerous competition… all for you

《Official Note 》
Hello! You can call me Neko Bueno.
I'd like to clarify that this is the only official page for the game. The only other official sources are my social media accounts, listed below.
Please do not reupload or repost the game on other websites or platforms.
This can be really harmful to indie creators, and I kindly ask for your understanding!
One exception: I’ve given copiklaGrogu permission to translate the game into Chinese, so it’s perfectly fine to check it out there as well!
And please, feel free to create fanart, fanfics, and gameplays!
I truly love seeing every single one of them. I only ask that you credit the official page (e.g. link to this page on description) when sharing.
Thank you so much for all your support!
Enjoy the show
I will continue working on the next part soon.

Я влюбилась в эту игру! X3 Отчасти даже жалею, что начала играть в неё до её завершения, ведь буду умирать в ожидании продолжения( Продолжайте в том же духе:)
Ahhhh To muito ansiosa pro dia 3, quando sera que vai lançar nao vejo a horaa
Интересно игна на русском?
К сожалению, нет, только на английском, португальском и китайском
I am kinda addicted to otome games, and this has been the most captivating one! I really felt like I was in that atmosphere. The circus made me nervous, and the characters really gave me that creepy feeling. I'm looking forward to the full game, hope you don't give up on this game!!!
Hi! I noticed your game is not available in Spanish yet. I’m a native Spanish speaker and I’d love to help you translate it to reach a wider audience in Latin America and Spain. I'll leave my email address here so we can discuss the project further if you're interested: [damiantranslations@outlook.com]. Let me know what you think!"

You guys did a amazing job on the game, art and the voice!!! I don't know if only you Neko!!! The only who made all of it!!?
I love Pierrot, he's endearing in his how special way. The game has serious potential. ALSO Absolutely love the voice actors unexpected but enjoyed every time!!! Cant wait for the next update.
BARELY STARTED PLAYING AND ALREADY LOVE THE GAMEEE. its one of my favourite games already and i absolutely love pierrotttt (i will definitely make a c.ai bot of him later, my profile is @trouxinha_vi on c.ai for anyone who might want to check it out). A BIG shoutout to the game's creator < 3
I love Pierrot so muchhhhh I love the game, the music, EVERYTHING. One of the best games so farrr
i love this game sm dklhidhldhsa <3
Love the game so far but, whenever I get to The ticket takers tent or the nesters tent my device reloads and I have to start over. Is there any way to fix it ?
Yeah me too! I was playing from the browser and every time the Jester’s story it reloads and it kicks me out and I have to restart all over again😭
I loved this game but I was a bit saddened the voice scenes weren't working TT^TT anyway to fix that?
I generally don't like visual novel style games, but this was an amazing game. If I had friends, I'd definitely recommend it to them. Pierrot is definitely my favorite character, lol. I honestly just stumbled upon this absolute gem while in the middle of a pretty bad depressive episode, and now I'm hooked.
I would say how much I love this. But words can't explain it, sadly. Pierrot is 1,000,000% my favourite character (definitely not bcz he's ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE...To me at least...don't criticise me! I'm Bi! I'm allowed to liie men!!!) Anyway. 1000000000/10 game :3
c puede kachar en este juego¡¡?
When's the next chapter coming?
I discovered this game through a Spanish creator (Nicocore) via YouTube and i absolutely loved it so much I had to play it myself! I cannot wait for the next chapter, this' a 10/10 for me >.<
I don't know if Neko Bueno will read this or is interested, but I would love to help with the Spanish translation given the chance
I absolutely loved everything about this game! But oh my god, can someone tell me what music plays in the green tent during Harlequin performance? I CAN'T FIND IT, BUT I REALLY WANT IT!
Omg i love pierrot whens day 3?
DELICIOUSSS
bom demais¡.! amei que tem pt br! ansiosa para a próxima atualização!
