This story is based on the game Duskwood created by Everbyte Studio. Its the retelling of the events of the game starting from episode 1 but with more fleshed out MC here called Jules. I have tried my best to keep the MC more relatable to everyone so as to not exclude anyone. Hope you still like the story even though MC is more fleshed out.
It's my way of thanking the Everbyte team and to connect with the community and give people the feel of playing the game without solving those pesky minigames(jk I understand their importance and I would play them again to flirt with Jake).I am going on this revisit to ease the pain while I wait for the tenth and final episode.
For people who have never played I have written it in a way where you will still understand it but I would still recommend playing the game. I hope you all like it!

Duskwood: A Town of Mysteries
"It may seem like any place. Cold, monotonous. But can you imagine what lurks deep in the forest of the town of mysteries? Coincidence, fate?" Vanysh Webster just moved to Duskwood, a small town that doesn't seem to be any special, but that is until a stranger, from this same town, calls her claiming to have received a message from his missing girlfriend, which contained nothing but her number. Intrigued by the events and even people related to it, she decides to enter the case and find this girl, which leads her to paths deeper than anyone could ever imagine. !!!!Brief explanation: As some of you might have noticed, the story is based on the game "Duskwood", which means the main ideas, story and characters ARE NOT mine (except for Vanysh and some others). So, the general credits belongs to everbyte and all of their creators. Another important thing is: some things that will happen are the same from the game's original story, but other's were invented by me. My intention is to give the story another perspective besides the "Main Character" that we interpret while playing (And I started writing this before chapter 9 was released). *The portuguese version can be found at my profile*Complete
Tonight is the night we die
! PART ONE - COMPLETE ! ! PART TWO - IN PROGRESS ! _SPOILERS AHEAD _ _ The story takes place right after the end of chapter nine of Duskwood. It's following the same main story line with changes along the way. Some texts messages are changed, some are the same. _ If my life was going to come to an end right now, it would taste bitter. But how much control can you have over that ? Going into this mine was the best way to keep the others safe, it was the best way to achieve what we were supposed to achieve since day one. Tonight, we were getting to the end. The end of this search for Hannah, the end for this search for the truth, the end of a love that didn't even started, the end of a life. Tonight is the night where we get the answers, where we get hurt by love and the truth. Tonight is the night we die.Complete
His last breath.
This story follows the game Duskwood, although some aspects remain the same, the rest i have created myself. Most of the characters belong to everbyte, except a few that are my own. This is my first time writing fanfiction. The story will be released in chapters. Please vote, comment or save if you are enjoying the story 😀. Time is running out for Hannah, but it is not just her fate that lies in the hands of a monster! Will you deface the MWAF before he takes more lives! Things are not always as they seem, especially in the quaint town of Duskwood. Contains violence, language and mild sexual scenes.Complete
Let's make the world end (Duskwood)
(Duskwood with alternate ending) Willow and Jake love to drive each other crazy and the fact that they are chasing a masked madman doesn't seem to stand in the way. But will they be able to find Hannah? They should watch their backs, because soon things can get deadly. Or hilarious. Or both! -------------------- I tried to balance the story between thriller/mystery and comedy, I really wanted to do a little lighter and funnier (yet still serious) version of Duskwood, answering the questions that were left open along the way. The story begins at the beginning of 9th episode, right after Jessy's and Thomas' visit at Michael Hanson's house. I'm following the game plot a little, but then things will change drastically. (Little additional info for you: English is my second language and I'm constantly correcting any mistakes I can find, so if you see anything out of place, feel free to let me know.) Please note that this book is rated 18+ and contains content suitable for mature audiences. Appropriate trigger warnings are included, and most intimate scenes are skippable. But still, if you're not over 18, please do not interact and find something else to read :) (Cover drawn by me)Complete

A week after Hannah Danford has been found and brought back home safe, Jake decides to visit Duskwood to finally meet his half-sisters - and you. You try your best to find out where you two are at with your relationship while you slowly get to know each other more. But unfortunately, Duskwood doesn't stay safe for too long - as if it is attracting danger, a new criminal shows themselves, and you and the others have to rely on yourselves to stop this person. Fem!MC x Jake, slow burn romance, drama and thriller, reader POV. There is sexual references, strong language, murder & kidnapping included in the story. P.S: English is not my native language, so go easy on me please. :) Otherwise I'm open for constructive criticism. All rights go to Everbyte. The characters and the backstory isn't mine, only this fiction.Complete

Duskwood: Love's Beginning
Even in the darkest moments, the beginnings of love can be found. Jayna Chacon is stuck in a rut. Her job is interesting, but she doesn't have any friends or anything else she's particularly passionate about. That is until a group of strangers starts texting her, asking her to help find their missing friend. Shortly after a faceless man reaches out and starts giving her orders. As time goes on, Jayna realizes she's risking her heart, her safety, and maybe even her life. Disclaimer: This original work of fanfiction is based on Everbyte Studio's mobile game, Duskwood. I do not claim ownership of Duskwood or its characters, nor do I claim that this story is part of the original. As this is a fanfic, I also will not earn any money from this work. There is more development of the main character than in the game so that readers who aren't familiar with Duskwood can still follow along. This storyline follows the main character and Jake (Jake X female MC). I've also added in a few characters of my own, just to give the story some more depth. As this is fanfic, there WILL be spoilers, so if you plan on playing the game or haven't finished it, I suggest you do so before reading this book! The chapters go from the MC's and Jake's point of view, so they don't follow the episodes in the game (i.e. there are more than 10 chapters to this book).

Coincidentally But Eternally Connected

Jake watches in amazement as Hope integrates herself with the group. Her ease and intellect intrigue him, and he finds herself getting drawn in by her. Until Lilly releases a video about both of them, and then everything Jake thought he understood about Hope turns out to be false. As this is fanfic, there WILL be spoilers, so if you plan on playing the game or haven't finished it, I suggest you do so before reading this book! The plot begins prior to the game's beginning and continues past the end of the game. Some aspects of the story may be different.
