Secrets of Charlton School
You play a recent newcomer to the sleepy town of Charlton. When your sister appears to be struggling at school, you are tasked with getting to the bottom of what’s really happening to her, and finding a way to stop it. How you do this, and what you become because of your actions, is entirely up to you.
It’s a text-heavy adventure, with illustrative images of the town and its inhabitants peppered throughout. Full day and night system, quest log, inventory and spells, NPCs with their own schedules and motivations, and above all multiple ways to approach all the problems, based on how you want to play.
In terms of the adult content, it features mind control, corruption, m2f transformations, as well as different content for submissive, assertive, greedy and selfless paths. It’s X-rated for content. There’s some sex scenes, but not every passage.
Updates will come when time allows - definitely a homemade passion project. For this reason, there won’t be a patron link set-up. If you really like the game, give a donation.
Any bugs, typos or discussion, please direct to the thread on the TFGamessite website or the Discord channel. I’ll be the most active there. I’ll also keep the high-level roadmap there too.

Where did you make the characters' faces? I saw this site once, but I can't find it now
Will compulsions effect anything in the next update?
Is there a list of scenes somewhere? I don't want to waste a bunch of time poking around dead ends looking for something that may not be there.
I have a couple of ideas:
1. One of the last stages will make the Main Character much younger, because of which he will start going to school. At the same time, he can go to part-time jobs.
2. Add the ability to leave the hero outwardly feminine (a girl), but return him to the understanding of who he was. It is also possible to make it so that the world will still remember him as a man, because of which he will have to pretend to be another person, this would add a lot of interesting scenes.
3. Add a purchase and choice of clothes.
4. Add more different jobs, and more scenes for them.
5. Add more characters, friends and parents, ex-girlfriends (who could ruin the life of the main character) and other characters.
6. Add more erotic and sexual scenes.
Hi there, thanks! There's a lot planned that aligns to your ideas, so hopefully you should be happy in the coming releases!
Hoooo))
Тhat good!)
And is it possible to turn into someone other than your sister, your girlfriend, and the cafe worker? I wonder what the last two interact with the game.
And are there any plans for an update? Any idea about the approximate date?
Updates will be incoming over the coming months, but nothing definite.
And how can you interact with your girlfriend?
You need to visit her apartment on Avian Lane in the evening
How did you make this game? Are there any websites for creating web games?
It's created using Twine / Sugarcube. Have a google for that - lots of resources for it!
Is there any way that cheats would be added. I prefer cheats in a game like this
I'm not opposed to it - what cheats would you be looking for?
Just things to do stuff like increase ir decrase stats or relationships
did u Support the developer with 10$
Question: I noticed in the first gym scene, there seems to be no way to avoid increasing attraction to men at least once. Is that something you can avoid in this game, or is it an inevitability? I don't personally find men attractive, so I'd rather know ahead of time, and thus can opt out of playing if that's the case.
The gym curse is directly tied to orientation, so that one is unavoidable. The nature of Charlton is to push everyone into hetrosexual relationships (plus patriarchal and sexist mentality), but big part of the game is to offer options for players to push back, rebel and ultimately stop the people doing this, so there will be options to avoid / push back on this. I would say it's definitely not inevitable, but some curses / magical items will increase orientation.
Found another bug.
I have the key for the AV Cupboard but the game keeps telling me:
It's too late to continue your investigation.
Doesn't matter which time I try, it always says the same.
Ah, a fix caused a fix problem. I'll release a bug release this week. Thank you!
I think I found a bug.
When I got invited to the coven by Christina, I choose to think about it but after that when I try to get the initiation there is an error that stops the game from progressing.
Thanks! Fixed!
Hi, I quite enjoyed playing your game.
Will there be a download version of it in the future?
Should be able to download the most recent version - I'll check to make sure
Cool, THX
Hello there,
I saw your game description and got curious. I had a few questions if you don't mind.
When you mentioned the content for submissive, assertive, greedy and selfless path; are we talking about like a Sub/Dom power dynamics? E.g: during sex scene, you can choose to take charge or not? To give or receive?
Could you elaborate a bit more on what each path means and their effect on the gameplay please?
Another one concerns the pairing and nsfw content. Would it be possible to know the current amount of content for FF pairing (I don't mind m2f). Is it something that will have as much update as a MF pairing or will it be more like a side project in term of content.
Thanks
No problem! I'd say dom power dynamic is probably out - but there will be sub power dynamics in there.
In terms of paths, I'm trying to balance a mixture of gameplay styles, giving options for players who want to play against the sexism, embrace it, submit to it. Given it's not the nicest of towns, I don't want players to feel they have to get railroaded into a way of playing through. So it should be possible to move through the main quests and have enough options in side quests to suit their character.
There's very little FF in the game and no nsfw content yet for it. Given the Stepford flavour, the town fights against anything outside of heterosexual patriarchy, but there are characters that showcase how these things are dealt with. And this will lead to the player being able to help those scenarios, and the game will support certain FF paths if the player chooses that way. As a finger in the air, it's probably going to be 70% FM / 40% FF, but early days yet.
Hope that helps!
Will there be a android release? This is a great game but would love a android build.
Not high on my backlog at the moment, to be honest. But I will add it to it!
Thanks. Love this idea so far.
There's a really useful tool for playing HTML games:

The only issue I've had with it is saving on the absolute newest Twine form, but it still remembers your current place at least.
How do you do the spell on Liz for the cheerleading team
Should be able to invite her over to your house in the evening.
i can't seem to use the forget spell on liz, as always that i try it, the game do not show the option to do it. (i have the spell learned so idk why this is happening).
Are you trying it in public? Or if part of the quest, have you invited Liz over to your home in the evening?
i invited her into the house, at evening, but the momment i say, to emily, to go to her bedroom, the next part do not advance and don't show the option to use the spell, after this part im saying: "Actions
Ask Emily to go to her room «--
Confess what Christina has asked you to do"
I can't replicate this, unfortunately. Assuming you are in Emily form, and you click on 'ask emily to go to her room' and it doesn't advance?
Is m2f optional?
Not entirely - you can limit how much you are impacted, but you have to transform at times to get through the game
Ahh okay. Thanks for the clarification :)
Love all the choices !! this is a really interesting narrative so far.
Apologies - done!
I am loving the game so far, I've completed several starting quests, but I'm hopelessly stuck on getting a hall pass. How do I complete that quest?
Thank you! Not currently implemented - I should have flagged that, will address in the upcoming bug release. Different to Girls questline is on the list to release before Act 2.
