Evaluation

A College of Thirst & Claws launched into Early Access on August 25, 2026, containing only the first two episodes of a planned multi-episode story. The developer, SeptCloud Games, has been transparent that this is an intentional partial release: additional episodes will be developed and added as free updates over the course of the Early Access period, with the goal of eventually reaching a full 1.0 release. The launch post on August 25, 2026 explicitly states "More episodes will be added as we develop them." An earlier July 2026 announcement confirmed the developer pivoted from a season-based model to a single game that will be continually updated until completion. The game is clearly in active, ongoing development with substantial story content still to be written, rendered, and released.

About this game

A College of Thirst & Claws is an immersive, story-driven adult visual novel.

As a werewolf joining a supernatural college, you'll be thrown into the deep end of a sinister conspiracy in the town of Lanstone.

Develop relationships with beautiful women as you shape your own story.

You have spent your life in a werewolf pack, where your father's the Alpha. Unfortunately, he harbours a deep hatred towards you and isolated you from the outside world.

When he abruptly forces you to leave and attend a unique college that helps supernatural beings mingle with humans, it seems the perfect opportunity to start a new life.

The plan was simple: mind your own business and never return to your pack. It would've been easy had you not aided a newly turned vampire. You've now found yourself in a sinister plot far beyond anything you anticipated.

Develop in-depth relationships with a cast of girls.

With the numerous main love interests, will your connections be romantic or purely sexual?

Will you be hot-blooded and dominant or calm and analytical? Can you find the right balance?

Can you stay under the radar, or will your choices draw unwanted attention?

  • A character-driven story shaped by your choices.

  • Original music designed for the story.

  • An evolving glossary to help you keep track of the characters and lore.

  • A sex scene replay gallery and image favouriting to revisit memorable moments.

  • A range of achievements. More unlockables are planned for the future.

Please note that some of the animations shown on the store page/in the trailer will appear in Episode 3, so not in this first release which contains Episodes 1 & 2.
