Full description

In this unsettling, mature story with a set main character, help average office worker Ash gain the confidence to make new friends in an exclusive nude painting group. "The Gray Painter" is a 145,000-word, 20-chapter interactive novel. It’s entirely text-based, fueled by the vast, unstoppable power of your imagination. You can select Ash’s sex, gender, and orientation. Ash begins the game in a relationship with Harper, a gender-selectable partner. The option to break up with Harper becomes available in Chapter 9. "The Gray Painter" depicts drug and alcohol use, smoking, inferred suicide, explicit sexual content, horror, and high-impact violence and gore. The story also features themes of body insecurity and dysmorphia. This is a story for adults aged 18 and up. * Play as straight, gay, bisexual, pansexual, asexual, or all of the above. * Meet seven complex, flawed, human characters. * Immerse yourself in the sprawl of New Jersey in 2012. * Turn a mild-mannered accountant towards a life of sex, drugs, and rock & roll. * There are no secrets in this game. And if there were any secrets, it's best not to look for them.
