Character Spotlight: Sara
In our series of character spotlights leading up to the Steam release of A Shot in the Dark, this week we're introducing Sara, the embattled sorority president facing challenging times.
Sara, a college senior, finds herself at the helm of the Zeta Omega Chi sorority during a difficult period. Not only is the sorority grappling with dwindling recruitment, but they're also rocked by the mysterious disappearance of one of their sorority sisters after a party. Sara's leadership is further tested by her friction with Alexis, the sorority treasurer, stirring up plenty of drama.
Portraying confidence and allure on the surface, Sara harbors deep insecurities within. She often assumes that others' interest in her is superficial, leading her to keep her vulnerable side safely locked away. Will you be able to chip away at her rock-solid emotional defenses?

A Shot in the Dark is a choice-driven adult visual novel about new possibilities and dark secrets. Navigate romance, relationships, and rivalry as a young man during your first semester of college. Can you make a fresh start, or will the past catch up with you?
A mystery to solve
You play as a young man hoping to make a fresh start in college. But when a sorority girl goes missing, any hope of a normal semester disappears along with her. Will you be able to solve the mystery of her disappearance before it's too late?
Your choices matter
Choose wisely. There is no right or wrong. There is no one "happy path." From the first chapter to the last, your decisions can have permanent impacts on the story. Many branching story paths—each with its own joys and tragedies—will eventually lead you to one of the multiple endings.
Compelling characters
Ten main love interests represent a variety of body types, personalities, and skin tones. Your choices will decide how each relationship progresses and whether lewd scenes are revealed. Additional romanceable characters will be included based on Patron polling and requests.
Transparent gameplay
The mystery is in the story, not the gameplay. You will always know what aspects of the game your choices affect, for optimal replayability. No grinding or pointless minigames to stretch out the content. Every mechanic is designed to move the story forward, not to slow it down.
