Gnoll Way Home
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android
You awaken in another world, inhabiting the body of one of the realm's most reviled beasts - the savage gnoll. Before you can even come to grips with your situation, you are thrust into a journey to find your place in this world that fears and rejects your very presence. The path to discovering yourself is a dangerous one, but you won't walk that path alone.
This six-chapter Visual Novel explores themes of sex, gender, and identity through the purview of big sweaty hyena men. It contains adult themes not suitable for persons under the age of 18, including explicit depictions of sex and nudity.

I thought I downloaded the updated version for Android but the game still ends after chapter 1? Did I do something wrong?Edit: nevermind, I guess must've misclicked and not updated the app
Is this game gonna have Sex scene?
imminently
Oh---Wait what do you mean?
Quick question, is there going to be any non-optional sexual content involving the intersex(?) dude? Interesting premise and characters, but I won't be able to play further if so.
(Also how hard does this thing go on the musk thing? That's something that squicks me out so if they talk about how stinky people are constantly...)
It's basically part of their culture (both things) so this might not be for you.
"Does this story have sex?"
"Im asking for a friend"
This was very good! I'm enjoying the story and the art is fantastic. While auto play, it seems like decisions are defaulted instead of halting play till button click.
Just finished reading and I gotta say its great! Very modern, very polished VN! I like how there's a lot of small moments and details in this VN that are charming and memorable. I really liked this scene in particular when delivering mail to the tribe:
Can't wait to see how the story pans out! This is a hidden gem for sure. Good soup!!!
Genuinely my new favorite VN. Artistically and visually I'd say its ahead of some of the top dawgs of VNs like adastra. The story is fucking amazeballs thus far, cant fucking wait to play more!!!!!!!
I like how the story has other characters the MC might be attracted to that aren't necessarily the person the original body might have been attracted to. I do enjoy that little bit of story telling, even if Opa has my heart in a choke hold and won't let go
The tradition of telling everyone about the seller of bad copper, Ea-nasir, continues. Also, soup
Good Soup
Excuse my curiosity, but is Stinky a trans-male , or a cis male ?
Because in the story, MC hints at Stinky "looking male due to the beard, but his body displays the other direction"
By our definitions, he'd be a trans-male.
Their society doesn't have a lot of the same terms we use when discussing those topics though, so you might get different answers to that question in-universe.
The hot spring scene with Opa, the SFW black censor bar... it.... doesn't cover everything... Old codger was just too big for it... lol
Good catch. I've made it a bit more generous.
Dang that was a fast fix! It really shows how much you care for your work, be proud!
gnoll man too hung for the censors.
Chapter 2 seems to have more than the usual number of graphical issues with missing and scrambled areas. OSX.
Could you give more details? I'd love to track this down.
What's this ?
You might see some hints about this in the next chapter...
YAYYY!! I'm so excited!!
Hi. When did the new chapter of your game come?
Planning to release Chapter Two in July here.
Is this ongoing or cancelled
if you take a look at the patreon link it looks like they're actively working on chapter 2. I think this project basically just started.
A great game already, the only issue is that it ends.
how dare you all leave us hanging so! i loved this so much anticipating further chapters with boiling blood
A promising, prettily looking and interesting project. Good job with backgrounds and character design as well (DeadStrayBear my beloved), the soundtrack is nice and isn't boring. Good luck with making this game and I wish to play more!
So far really enjoying it and think it's a really interesting way/twist of having a sort of isekai story, I look forward to reading more!
suggestion: add the bara tag, i think it fits a lot!
Hmmm
This story has a great foundation to build on! Good job, looking forward to reading more!
already loving this story! the visuals are great, and the story is really interesting. can't wait to read more when the next update comes out :)
Tav is my favorite character. He lowkey reminds me of a hyena version of Lucas from Violet Memoir. Really hoping to date him in future updates.
ANDROID BUILD OMGGGGGG
hmm, update ? I swear it was a coincidence that i saw it 49s after it was released-
I was excited too
well this was interesting, and short. but to be fair its really new so i guess i'll be waiting for more.
Nice a newborn 😉
I´m guessing Im not the only one who liked the Gnolls in BG3 .... uwu
Gnolls are from DND, a game that's decades old
Which BG3 is based on. The title of the game refers to one of the settings IN Dungeons and Dragons
I almost asked
good art
I like it so far. Will be there choice options (Opa, Stinky, Tav route) or this is only a kinetic novel? Because I would be really enjoy if there three romantic route in this visual novel. They are a lovelable characters with different body-size and age.
Please keep going!
Id like an answer to this as well. Im really digging Opa, i wouldnt mind a romance route with him
We are thinking of the same thing. :)
Thank youuuu. This looks like fun, I like what you’ve done with it. Looking forward to more.
This was amazing! So beautiful and engrossing, awesome work. Super excited to see more!
it's so good ! Can't wait for next update
I liked what is there so far, eager to see where this goes.
