ASHGATE

You fall asleep in your own bed and wake up on the floor of a cell in Ashgate, a prison fortress built into a volcanic caldera. The body belongs to the kingdom's most famous thief, and the Queen's stolen necklace hangs around its neck. It won't come off. Pit night is in seven days.

The women who run the block each want something from you. Every one of them is an adult.

• Every character but you is voiced, in English.
• There are six sex scenes, with Nell, Red, Mags, Dessa, Brenna and Brick, and each one is fully animated.
• You get two weeks on the block with a map, jobs for four factions, talks, random events and your first fight in the Pit.
• Your standing with each faction and your bond with each woman are the only numbers. There is no money, no stats and no grind.
• You can save anywhere. The journal always shows your next step, and an optional walkthrough shows what each choice changes.
• The text is in English, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, Japanese, Korean, Simplified Chinese and Arabic.

ASHGATE has explicit sex between adult characters in animated scenes, full nudity, monster girls, a trans woman and a woman with a cock. Some scenes play with who's in charge, and two are rough. It is set in a prison, with fist fights, some blood and strong language. Every scene is consensual. Every character is an adult, and the game is for players 18 and over.

ASHGATE is in Early Access. This build is the first two weeks of the story, and it ends on a card that says so. After that the block stays open: you can finish your jobs and play every scene you missed.

• Six women have their first sex scene. Each bond goes up to 2 of 10 so far, and the scenes above that aren't in the game yet.
• Four places on the map, the turfs of the Chain, the Veil, the Ashen Sisters and the Pale Court, are shut and marked "Not in this update". Their factions and leaders aren't in the game yet.
• We plan to add more weeks of story, more Pit nights, those four factions and their leaders, and the next scenes on each woman's ladder.
