Evaluation

Zeliria Sanctuary launched on January 6, 2019 and received a focused burst of post-launch content in its first year. Two paid DLC packs shipped alongside the base game at launch (OST + Artbook on January 8, 2019, and the extension pack on January 10, 2019). Two further story expansions followed: the free "Rise of Pumpkins" DLC on June 7, 2019, and the Halloween-themed "Isley's Memories" DLC on October 30, 2019. The OST + Artbook DLC received a comics update on October 26, 2021, but this was a supplemental addition to existing content rather than a new story expansion. The game also received Russian voice acting for all 22 characters (October 21, 2019) and a player-created content workshop (March 3, 2020). Since late 2019, the developer's news activity on this game's store page has predominantly been cross-promotional posts for other Salangan Games titles — new visual novels and spin-off games released under the same studio. The most recent game-specific signal was a February 1, 2022 announcement that a sequel, Zeliria Sanctuary Part 2 (Xinori Asylum), was nearing release and encouraged players to wishlist it on its own separate store page. This positions any future story content as a standalone sequel rather than additional content for this game. All four DLC entries in the store listing are marked as released, and the developer has made no announcements of additional content for this title. The pattern of activity — a concentrated release window in 2019 followed by years of silence on this specific game — is consistent with a completed product. The sequel announcement confirms the studio moved forward with the story in a new title rather than continuing to expand this one.

About this game

As a result of the experiment, the main character of the game, Maxx goes through a portal gate from Earth to an amazing planet where everlasting summer reigns. A planet with tropical forests and no highways. A planet where sakura does not bloom, but TWIT grows. A planet, where there are seductive assassins and kings' tyranny. Here you can found not only cat-girls, but even purple hamsters, who have enormous power.
Was it his fault or some divine intervention? Why did he agree to the experiment? Can he go back or just starlight will remind him of home? Will he enjoy wonderful everyday here or die ignominiously?
Past life is gone forever and you need to solve the riddles of the new planet and build relationships with new friends. In this world, everything is not so simple and Maxx needs to decide who he can trust and who can stab him in the back. Gradually, the question how to get back is less and less relevant for our hero.


Our game is a unique mix of two styles. You'll get opening and closing arts in real-style and the rest game in anime. A colorful and dynamic adult story about the adventures of special forces soldier Maxx in the mysterious world of Zeliria. Zeliria... A dangerous, still beautiful planet, where neko live side by side with knights.
A game where you decide the fate of the hero.





Our visual novel combines fantasy, drama, romance, humor, thriller, and of course beautiful girls and fluffy (not)humster.
