We did recently add a scene (dream) that has VA work and we have another dream with lewd sounds too.
In terms of adding VA work to the other gals and whatnot, is not a top priority right now but something that we look into every so often for either testing or discussion!
Any plans on doing a VN mode ? like the events trigger in auto without the sandbox thing of moving here and there ? i dont mind the sandbox mode but i returned to play some vn's and a bunch ot them have this option, keep up with the great work S2
When Cait is studying in the library, you'll have to option to study with her and there should be an option to have her sit on your lap. That should point you towards that scene being unlocked.
Yeah I have that option and have had one scene but now it's just studying. I've finished her story and only have a bit of Rae's story left. No big deal, great game regardless
Can I do anything with the ice cream I keep getting out of the fridge? Rae keeps saying how much she likes it but there doesn't seem to be any opportunity to use it. Also after the first time you take Naomi to the bar, the bartender says to come back after a few days as it will be busier, but it never comes up again after?
A House In The Rift will not save my preferences... ever. I open the game, mute the audio and skip unseen text, exit the game, open the game and the settings are reset. Things I have tried:
1) I deleted "persistent" in saves folder.
2) I then also deleted all other saves except the one I saved from older versions.
3) Then I also went to my "C:\Users\LordOfAllCreation\AppData\Roaming" and deleted the entire damned RenPy folder there. This removed all game save subfolders for all 22 RenPy games I have played, AND their settings. (I made a zipfile backup of it first, of course).
My process was step 1, test it (open game, change preferences, exit game, open game, listen for music). Steps 1 & 2, test it again. Steps 1 & 2 & 3, test it again.
No matter what I do, there is never a change. Is this a bug or deliberate? t is SUPER frustrating to hear the music cut into my music already playing in the background from Youtube.
Hey just checking back in to see if this has been resolved? If not, can you drop your log file for me? You can find this in your AHITR directory. Thank you!
Sorry im little confused, so I already have the app installed (I already played it) and now i downloaded the new version so i have the .rpa now what should I do? Sorry im actually confused what to do and thanks for the reply
You drop that new .rpa into the "game" folder like you would when you initially installed the game. Delete the old .rpa and boot up, should be good to go!
How the heck do I raise Azrae's Intimacy lvl??? I am on like day 65 an she apparently doesn't have enough intimacy for "certain activities" even though I watch tv with her a ton, do the cooking and breakfast, do all the evening activities and every other thing you possibly can with her and nothing will raise her intimacy level! What should I do?? Thanks
SPOILERS: I believe I ran into a bug near the begining of the heist quest when Cait is talking to the three guards. When there is only one guard left to deal with I think the selections are mislabeled, i.e. selecting one does the dialogue of the other.
Enjoying this game so far, just got up to where Lyriel arrives. Question - the space station dream, I didn't find the unlock code for the mysterious box. I read an old comment saying you had to go through in a specific order to find it, will I get another chance to do the same dream or is it a once-only thing?
You can repeat the dream as many times as you like! You'll need to re-add it to the dreams list. The space dream takes a few runs to see everything anyway! (Recommend checking places in different orders on repeat playthroughs).
There should be a red button at the top that says "Download Now", clicking that should bring you to where you can input the amount for the premium version.
Purchasing that will give you access to the current version and any other version as it becomes available on Itch going forward!
If you have any quests involving them, you might have to do those first for them to appear there. If not, can you drop your save here? I'll have a look (you can use mega/Google drive/any file sharing site, just make sure its not on private when you do!).
Help, I lost my data at the moment when the red-haired girl appeared, is it possible to somehow restore the save or go to the moment the red-haired girl appeared?
Im on android, i just installed the latest uodate. Everything seems good but any animations there are are very jerky and jittery. Is there a known fix for this?
Unfortunately you can't. There has been a bunch of discussions within the community and various theories. I think the main point I see come us is that people think she wants her own independence while they live in the house, and her way of doing so is to sell the band herself
Been having an issue where I saved during the Halloween movie sequence, and now I can't load the save anymore without the game crashing. Any idea how to solve that issue? I'm on ver. 0.7.17.
Sorry to hear you're having issues with your save.
Does rolling back or ignoring resolve the issue? If not, can you post your save here (You can do so via a file sharing site. Mega, Google Drive etc - Just make the file isn't private if doing so). Will have a look and see if we can get you back on track.
The current behavior is that when I go to load the save, the game doesn't give me the option to rollback or ignore the issue like how Renpy typically does; the entire app just becomes unresponsive and the only interaction I can have with it is force closing it. I've redownloaded the 0.7.17 from patreon just to see if that changed anything, however that didn't seem to do much.
I've uploaded the the save to google drive here. Let me know if there's anything on my end that I need to do.
i can't extract the files on my samsung , even with some application i download in play store , so if anyone know how i can do it , it will be a great help
Completely stuck and can do nothing in the game please help! So I am on day 2 and the game took me to my room in the evening, But.... It won't let me sleep saying I'm not tired yet and it wont let leave the room to go anywhere saying I don't need to sneak around the house at night, and there is nothing else to select in the room but the bed so I can do absolutely nothing! Can't sleep and can't go anywhere in house so now what?? At a complete dead end and would really appreciate some help! Thanks all!
This was fixed for 7.15, which is the current free version. If you don't want to download it right now, just don't shower in the early game. In the main menu start game, it'll start a new game for you.
I do understand it can feel like that from time to time. We do try and approach it in a balanced way, of sorts. We have the main story, personal stories of each of the gals, some side events and dreams. So you'll see a bounce between those over time.
Did you finish the quest "lost and found"? It contains the alchemy scenes AND you must successfully make the potion then it'll unlock the alchemy scenes. Hope my answer could help you.
This is most likely an issue at Itchs end. If you haven't tried a different browser already, I'd recommend doing so. If the issue persists, you could try heading over to our Patreon and trying there. Here's a link to the latest free version (You'll need a Patreon account to download, but you can sign up for free!): https://rift.ink/3EGfIgB
A House in the Rift is something truly special. The characters feel real, their stories are deep and emotional, and the writing is filled with warmth, humor, and heart. The atmosphere is so immersive that it feels like stepping into another world, one you never want to leave. Every little detail shows the love and passion behind it. It’s rare to find a game that resonates so deeply. Huge respect to the creator for crafting such a beautiful and unforgettable experience! I literally created my account just to show the creator my appreciation. Love this Game!
Thanks for taking the time to swing by and leave your feedback! Very much appreciate the kind words. Glad to hear you've enjoyed your time with AHITR so far!
Do you have any particular favourite character and moment?
As always enjoying the story. I am on the latest 7.17 and it talks about making potions?? I have been following the game, but have completely missed that quest or activity. How far back do I need to go to activate the making potions section? thanks
Really good game, probably gonna add this to my patreon budget. But I gotta ask, is there something up with Naomi and Cait's hang out quests? they seem to stop progressing at some point and Cait just locks herself in her room with her banana. Its been a while since I played so I figure I should ask if that got addressed. Still though, great game with a lot of care put in.

Not sure if you answered this but is there any plans to add voice acting?
Hey Legions,
We did recently add a scene (dream) that has VA work and we have another dream with lewd sounds too.
In terms of adding VA work to the other gals and whatnot, is not a top priority right now but something that we look into every so often for either testing or discussion!
i wonder this game would fit realy well on steam hope it goes there someday
Hey Scorpio,
Currently we have no plans to release AHITR on steam, at least in it's current iteration.
What rendering engine is this? Blender?
Hey whxres,
Correct, a good portion of AHITR is made in Blender.
oh you cheeky, cheeky basterts
Hello mate, the game you made is very good, I love it very much. But the fly in the ointment is that there is no Chinese translation.
Hey 1223,
Currently we have no plans to add Chinese to the game right now, but its something we've discussed and will revisit sometime in the future.
Any plans on doing a VN mode ? like the events trigger in auto without the sandbox thing of moving here and there ? i dont mind the sandbox mode but i returned to play some vn's and a bunch ot them have this option, keep up with the great work S2
Hey TheWanderingJoker,
Currently we have no plans to add a VN/Kinetic mode to AHITR, but I think it's an interesting suggestion all the same.
The way the game works right now, with the overlapping triggers and whatnot, it'd be broken in a VN mode.
Thanks a bunch for the feedback though, we appreciate it o/
What do I need to do for a more intimate study with Cait? Just trying to figure out how to unlock missing scenes
Hey Hoxton!
When Cait is studying in the library, you'll have to option to study with her and there should be an option to have her sit on your lap. That should point you towards that scene being unlocked.
Yeah I have that option and have had one scene but now it's just studying. I've finished her story and only have a bit of Rae's story left. No big deal, great game regardless

Also after the first time you take Naomi to the bar, the bartender says to come back after a few days as it will be busier, but it never comes up again after?
Hey Shocked,
As of right now, the ice cream doesn't have a use! And as far as I remember, that's more for flavour text than anything.
A House In The Rift will not save my preferences... ever. I open the game, mute the audio and skip unseen text, exit the game, open the game and the settings are reset. Things I have tried:
1) I deleted "persistent" in saves folder.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hey Gaseous,
Sorry to hear about this, I can see how that would be incredibly frustrating.
By chance, is the persistent file set to read only? (Right click, properties). If so, untick that, apply and ok.
In the meantime, I'll have a look into this for you and see if I can find anything,
Appreciate your patience with this and sorry again for the issues you're experiencing.
Hey just checking back in to see if this has been resolved? If not, can you drop your log file for me? You can find this in your AHITR directory. Thank you!
how to update the game into a new version?
Hey Nathan,
On PC download the latest version, unzip and run. Saves will carry over automatically.
On Android, drop the latest .rpa into the "game" folder and delete the old one and boot the game up.
Hope this helps o/
This game keeps failing during download stating, Failed - Forbidden. Anyone ever have this issue and no how to resolve it?
Hey Why,
This is an issue at Itchs end. If the download is interrupted or the web page takes too long, it'll time out the download.
Have you tried a different web browser by chance?
If not, you can grab the latest free version from our Patreon:
https://rift.ink/3EGfIgB
Hope this helps!
I got it finally sorted out, thank you for the help!!
I cant get the game to start. i downloaded the windows of the Latest version but its not even opening.
Hey Dandy,
Sorry to hear you're having issues getting the game running.
Have you tried running the game in Admin mode (right click, run as admin)? Does anything else happen by chance?
No nothing happens. And usually i can see it make a log before the game opens with these itchio games, but not even that is happen.
Can you give our Patreon version a try and see if it helps?
https://rift.ink/3EGfIgB
You'll need a Patreon account (its free to sign up)
Lemme know if that helps!
Does this game have an localization in Chinese ?
Hey 包子戴baozidai!
Currently we have no plans to add Chinese to the game right now, but its something we've discussed and will revisit sometime in the future.
Dropped a Donation because i fucking love the work you put into this game and the great update times! Keep up the great work!
Hey Maki!
Greatly appreciate the support, thank you! We'll do our best to keep releasing content you/everyone else loves o/
Any particular favourite moment or gal?
Favorite Gal would be Lyriel love the Tsudere elf. Cait would definitely tie for 1st place tho. My favorite moment has to be the magic wand skits.
I just download the update, is there like process how to update the game properly? I dont want to lose my progress
Hey Tasty,
Your saves carry over to the latest version automatically! Just boot the latest version up and you should be good.
If you want to ever manually back up saves, on PC you can find them in AHITR/Game/Saves and on Android ahitr_storage.
Hope this helps!
Sorry im little confused, so I already have the app installed (I already played it) and now i downloaded the new version so i have the .rpa now what should I do? Sorry im actually confused what to do and thanks for the reply
Hey Tasty,
You drop that new .rpa into the "game" folder like you would when you initially installed the game. Delete the old .rpa and boot up, should be good to go!
How the heck do I raise Azrae's Intimacy lvl???

What should I do?? Thanks
Hey Drews!
Sometimes you'll have to progress certain quests (like main or personal) to allow you to earn more lewd/intimacy points.
Certain dialogue choices can also raise stats too.
I'd recommend progressing some quests, maybe main story and trying to raise her stats again!
I recently completed Cait's heist quest and was wondering how to access the dreams, it said I got everything there was to get.
Also is there a walkthrough?
SPOILERS: I believe I ran into a bug near the begining of the heist quest when Cait is talking to the three guards. When there is only one guard left to deal with I think the selections are mislabeled, i.e. selecting one does the dialogue of the other.
Hey Flying,
The dreams are going to be gradually added, and the first one was with Rowan, which was in 7.16!
Hello, Im stuck at the task to find 50 bucks for the date with azraesha, where can I find it?
Hey hell,
You can rummage through your closet to find random amounts of cash!
ahh okay thanks :))
Enjoying this game so far, just got up to where Lyriel arrives.
Question - the space station dream, I didn't find the unlock code for the mysterious box. I read an old comment saying you had to go through in a specific order to find it, will I get another chance to do the same dream or is it a once-only thing?
Hey Shock!
You can repeat the dream as many times as you like! You'll need to re-add it to the dreams list. The space dream takes a few runs to see everything anyway! (Recommend checking places in different orders on repeat playthroughs).
Thanks, how do I re-add it to the dreams list?
Hey Shocked!
Same way you would initially, through the dreamer app on the phone!
Oh, I haven't even looked at the app! I usually just click 'Dream about...' when going to sleep and see what comes up 🤷🏻♂️
Hey guys, where and how can I buy the premium version? This version is a one-time purchase, and I can keep getting the latest versions? Tks
Hey Werfou,
There should be a red button at the top that says "Download Now", clicking that should bring you to where you can input the amount for the premium version.
Purchasing that will give you access to the current version and any other version as it becomes available on Itch going forward!
Man the downloading takes 6 hours on the android free pack, I don't know why but this is the second time happening to me today.
Hey Loyal,
This could be an issue with Itchs servers! Hopefully it resolves itself soon!
I see Yona and Blair in the pool scene but i cant see them. im at 150 days. version 0.7.14
Hey Haritin!
If you have any quests involving them, you might have to do those first for them to appear there. If not, can you drop your save here? I'll have a look (you can use mega/Google drive/any file sharing site, just make sure its not on private when you do!).
thank you, i'll try do the quests.
I'm having trouble finding the .rpa file. I've got the launcher and the .bin files, but I can't move that out of my downloads folder
Hey Lord,
The rpa file will be the game file you download from here, you don't extract that or such.
We have a step by step guide here:
https://rift.ink/3PADL3p
Hey Drews!
It depends on how you tackle the quest log/to do book in game.
Be sure to check the available dreams from time to time. Most are side events that don't have to be interacted with, but some are story related too.
Help, I lost my data at the moment when the red-haired girl appeared, is it possible to somehow restore the save or go to the moment the red-haired girl appeared?
Hey Forment,
If you're playing on Android and your files have been lost, then you'll need to start over.
If you're playing on PC and have only lost your game folder, you should have a backup of saves in: AppData\Roaming\RenPy\AHouseintheRift
However, if the PC has been wiped completely, you'll also need to start from scratch.
Im on android, i just installed the latest uodate. Everything seems good but any animations there are are very jerky and jittery. Is there a known fix for this?
Hey Justinc,
This could be a Renpy issue or even a device thing (Or a combination of both).
Can you stop rae from selling her arm accessory?
Hey Saiba,
Unfortunately you can't. There has been a bunch of discussions within the community and various theories. I think the main point I see come us is that people think she wants her own independence while they live in the house, and her way of doing so is to sell the band herself

Hey Nyooom,
So the scene eventually plays for me, but it does take a few mins. I was able to progress by the movie scene, and have it saved just as it ends.
https://mega.nz/file/veYhVRjA#b1rJPHiKHNlLwvzlXx_4nrO0BjEi9g9b5NCrkAWp82o
Unfortunately saving during movies has a chance to lock saves up. Sorry for the hassle!
i can't extract the files on my samsung , even with some application i download in play store , so if anyone know how i can do it , it will be a great help
Hey Eart!
You'll need to grab both our Android Launcher and the game .rpa file.
We have a step by step tutorial here:
https://rift.ink/3PADL3p
Hope this helps!
Thank you very much
Completely stuck and can do nothing in the game please help! So I am on day 2 and the game took me to my room in the evening, But....

Can't sleep and can't go anywhere in house so now what?? At a complete dead end and would really appreciate some help! Thanks all!
Hey Drews!
This is a bug that was fixed in a later version. If you shower on the second day you'll have to reload a save, roll back or make a new save.
This was fixed for 7.15, which is the current free version. If you don't want to download it right now, just don't shower in the early game. In the main menu start game, it'll start a new game for you.
I have version 7.15, and can confirm the bug is still there. Thanks for the tip though, it was driving me mad. Was about to give up on it.
Hey shocked,
This was actually fixed for 0.7.16r4! Apologies for the error at my end.
hey how does the new potion system work
Hey Demon,
Check a particular room in the house. It'll get you started :^)
I lost my entire gallery, can I get the code for all the animations?
Hey Deggiy,
Sorry to hear about your gallery.
The gallery code is a reward for our Patreon subscribers.
You can have a look here:
https://www.patreon.com/posts/bonus-scene-32519916?utm_medium=clipboard_copy&utm...
If you can snag a save or persistent file with progress to where you lost it, those should help out.
Best of luck o/
I have a question if I pay one time do I get the new premium updates always or I have to continue paying it every month
Hey Red!
Once you pay for the premium version, you'll have access to new versions as they become available!
when is r 0.7.16 coming out for free version, cant wait to play it
Hey Bonnet!
Here's the schedule for releases:
The Alpha build of a new version is released at the start of each month.
About a week later the Beta build is released.
Then after another week the Early Access version is released.
Then about a month later this version goes free and public. This is for Patreon so it gets dropped everything else a little bit later on
Hope you enjoy it when it drops!
great game but the story does not feel like its going anywhere right now
Hey Black!
I do understand it can feel like that from time to time. We do try and approach it in a balanced way, of sorts. We have the main story, personal stories of each of the gals, some side events and dreams. So you'll see a bounce between those over time.
Appreciate the feedback all the same though!
how do I get alchemy scenes I finished the game but never got lyriel's and cait's alchemy scenes
Hey Monk!
Those scenes are part of the alchemy mini game from the lost and found quest!If you have a save before it, you can snag em that way.
Did you finish the quest "lost and found"? It contains the alchemy scenes AND you must successfully make the potion then it'll unlock the alchemy scenes. Hope my answer could help you.
I skipped the minigame thinking since the potion still gets brewed I would get the scene. I did the minigame and got the scenes thx.
You're welcome, enjoy the scenes.
The download for PC keeps failing after about a quarter way through..

Do you have any particular favourite character and moment?
I like them all. Every Story is special on its own.
Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪
As always enjoying the story. I am on the latest 7.17 and it talks about making potions?? I have been following the game, but have completely missed that quest or activity. How far back do I need to go to activate the making potions section? thanks
Hey BD2020r!
This new activity is currently in early access, but it should just be there. Is it still not appearing for you?
No, no potion or potion making routines for me. Thanks for answering
Really good game, probably gonna add this to my patreon budget. But I gotta ask, is there something up with Naomi and Cait's hang out quests? they seem to stop progressing at some point and Cait just locks herself in her room with her banana. Its been a while since I played so I figure I should ask if that got addressed. Still though, great game with a lot of care put in.
Hey Blocky!
Appreciate the kind words and support! Glad you've been enjoying AHITR.
Cait's banana quest was bugged but has been since fixed!
