Superstition S1
su·per·sti·tion :: a widely held but unjustified belief in supernatural causation leading to certain consequences of an action or event, or a practice based on such a belief
A simple college student. Those were the words that once described you, and you would’ve shrugged your shoulders in agreement. Your day was a never-ending cycle of the same thing. Wake up, go to class and study, work, visit your uncle, go to sleep, have traumatic nightmares, and repeat for another day. So, it would be an understatement to say that you didn’t sign up for this.
You didn’t sign up for the supernatural, to learn that werewolves, shapeshifters, witches, demons, and angels all exist. You didn’t sign up for the target that now resides on your back, and the list of names that have you to blame for their untimely demise. And now, to add on to everything else, an old friend is re-appearing. Everyone has a secret, and you have no idea who you can trust.
Fight and hunt that which goes bump in the night. And avoid those that hunt you for their own purposes. Meet others with their own agenda. The world has shown its true colors, it’s up to you how to deal with it.
- Play as male, female, or non-gender specific, along with transgender choices.
- Romance one of five characters, have flings, or stay single because life is hectic enough as is.
- Customize not only your appearance, but also your personality and how you deal with the ever-changing world around you.
- Hunt a wide array of supernatural creatures but be hunted by others.
- Learn the truth of your past, and how it will impact your future.
- Uncover secrets that aren’t yours to uncover.
Superstition is for 18+ due to dark themes, alcohol references, gore, violence, and sexual themes. Reader discretion is advised.
Superstition is released in an episodic television fashion, meaning that every week (not counting breaks) a new episode will be released. A new episode will be released every Tuesday, starting April 9, 2019.
Due to the download links not being phone friendly, here's the link for those who would like to play the game on that device. Phone Link. It should be noted that the game is made with computer (and tablets) in mind. There are a few things that do not always crossover well.
Also DO NOT play this game using the itch.io app. The save system will produce an error and though you can play, will disallow you from saving.

so i have done literally everything that people further in the comments have said to do when chris is captured and no matter what i do he ends up dead. the threatening to kill yourself option those people mention does not show up for me. i have tried basically every option in this section and nothing seems to matter. i have no idea what to do :') help??
cis·gen·der
[sisˈjendər]
adjective
(Hope this helps, you illiterate sack. Also, too bad. If you can’t handle an adjective that literally describes what you’re looking for, get off your computer and touch some grass. I honestly don’t understand how people can be this idiotic. Hope you have a good day.)
Gender only two male and female, not ciskontol. You must be kamala harris goons.
Have you ever even stepped foot in a place of education? If not, like I assume, let me enlighten you. If you wanted that sentence to be correct, you would have said: ‘There are only two genders: male and female, not cisgender. You must be a Kamala Harris supporter.’ There, grammar fixed. Also, male and female are not genders, they are sexes. Gender is different from sex. There are three sexes, male, female, and intersex. There are, however, many genders. Also, who are you to decide who one is or isn’t? I could argue with you for a long time, but you obviously are either too stubborn, stupid, or a potent concoction of both. Do me a favour, and keep your dumb arse out of other people’s identities, and stop trying to control others when you can’t even control that empty cavern that you call a brain. Good day.

[SPOILER!!]
SOB SOSSS does anyone knows how to save Chris? Ive played this game for like 2 hours now and cant seem to save chris when he was being kidnapped!!
HI YES I HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM its been a while since I played but this is my best guess?? Basically when you get the phone call from him, answer it then tell him what's going on. After that he'll say he doesn't believe you and then there should be an option to give up on convincing him and hang up. After that he'll try to call again but don't pick up, only answer when you get the "SOS" text. I'm not sure if you have to do anything else but let me know if it works!!
okay gang I figured it out you do all of that and then what I did that ended up saving Chris is threaten to kill myself and then to not fight who ever grabbed me you will then end up in the car with him
THANKK YOU SO MUCH TO THE BOTH OF YOU
The guide links arent working 😟
I recommend you to read the development log
I will wait until the rewrite is complete, however, just to be sure, when using the iPhone link will I be able to transfer the Save to the second season without any problems? Or will I still have this problem and will I have to, I don't know, use Joiplay to play? I hope the process to pass the Save to the second season does not require a computer, I don't have one, so it would be very problematic ;-;
Loving this so far! Not even finished with the game, but I'm 6+ hours in!
Is there a skill guide for the season? I want to know how much influence and useful some skills are for certain runs.
I believe they were taken down until the rewrites were finished but I'm not entirely sure.
Oh ok, thanks for answering :)
Hi hi!! The game is having errors with saving and such, I'm not sure how to submit a report for it or anything. It's really frustrating though :( I'm loving the story so far and don't want to lose progress
How i can download the app on my phone because its just a file not an app?
Use joiplay and download all its plugins, download this game extract the file then use joiplay to open and play it.
Thanks
Can I tell Chris to join us without romancing him? I'm more interested in Sydero but I feel bad sending him on the bus since it says he'll disappear permanently
yes
Thank you!! I hadn't continued yet because I was too indecisive
help! I'm uninterested in Chris but I'm lowkey impatiently trynna find anybody else to romance, I'm still kind of early in the game: episode five, I'm just wandering when my options reveal themselves TvT
Sydero is the only option that is in your party that can be romanced until you get to Season 2. Sorry if that's disappointing.
that's okay! thank you for your help I would have been so confused the whole time <3
How do I save chris? I was able to save him my first round but I am doing a redo playthrough and I can't remember how to stop him from getting killed
When he calls you answer it but hang up on him and after a few minutes when his caller id comes up don't answer it and pick the one that says "I'm surprised Chris gave you his password" and after you go deal with his kidnapping and when you get there pick the first option and pick the knock one and pick the one Dodge and attempt to attack him and a few minutes later press the one that says tell them that your going to kill or stab yourself and after that pick the first one
Alrighty tyy!
how do you get chris to come with u?
edit: nvm i got the pookie
hi why is the iPhone version and the game on here like different??? the writing's a little sophisticated and the designs and stat display are much well organized and etc. (on the iPhone version). What is going on????
It's being updated to the 4.0 edition, mostly for testers and any curious to see the changes as they happen. The entire original is still in the download.
it probably doesnt matter but help whats the word!!
(this is from when they planned to steal the bowl from the museum but mc got caught by petri and was thrown in jail for 2 days)
NVM IT WAS THE FOOD
Tried this a long time ago but came back to complete the entire season! This is such a ride and I'm glad that I have two more seasons to go ^_^
Don't forget you also have a rework after 13Leagues is finished with it.
I guess so. I thought that it was already done and I played through it... Thanks for reminding me!
I headcanon one of my dead parents being dean winchester
I could see this also.

That's just one of those people who are dumb to the point in which they seem to not know that the term cis is an old term describing exactly what they are because he didn't look it up.

I'd assume through the itch.io app but I remember seeing an issue where you might have trouble with porting the save data from this to Season 2 to keep things consistent with your choices. There is a link to solve the issue I stated but it's currently gone and I don't think it will be back until the rewrite for this is finished.

Why doesn't the save work for season 1?
It is that prompt() is not and will not be supported.
Did you play on the itch.io app? Says itll make saving not work.
Damn, looking at my past comments, it looks like the link to solving this issue is gone. I remember it being a one or two line fix in the code. The issue is that electron (which Twine is built on top of) doesn't support prompt() and it has to do with saving to a file.
I know this game's on hiatus and that the story will be having an update, but I wanted to say that I've been replaying Seasons 1-3 for several weeks now. It's fun and I'm so intrigued by the story and Roe's journey. I'm excited to see what new stuff you'll be writing for this once the hiatus is over!
I know you're gonna be updating the game, and I'll be sure to check it out once you do, but I really enjoyed the current version as well. Spent all weekend playing and now I'm onto the next season :)
I can't believe its been so many years since superstition came out, and its still my favorite interactive fiction yet! Its so unique and fantastic, I can't wait to play it again with the update! <3
Ahhhh! Hiya 13!! :)
I'm super glad Superstition is getting an update. Not that it needed an update to me, but I know you want it to align to what you're doing right now in S3. I'm very excited to see what you do and I can't wait to read it again!! Have fun with it; don't stress yourself over it either!
How do you do the Chris route, I didn't know you could bring him with you, I've tried to replay it to see if anything changes with the options, but I'm never given the option to ask him to go with us after I save him. It cuts from me making sure Sydero is ok, then the Chris flashback, then I meet Faye and so on, I don't get the put Chris on the bus option. So I never get to see any of the Chris scenes in the story. Does anyone know how to fix this?
I cant export the data?
Due to a technology issue that I can almost guarantee I am one of only 2 people in the world that have this problem, could you please add the ability to export the save data to your clipboard instead of just to disk? So I can save my progress without having to find an obscure way to download my browser cache or something…
Done replayed this twice and that's saying something. I don't reread books or replay games unless I can put over 100hrs into. Absolutely love this story! It's my top favorite on here.
I'm confused, I 100% chose people in general to be attracted to, but the Chris convo makes it seem like MC specifically likes guys.
Also I never tried it but, If I did pick a specific sexuality, would we have still been able to flirt outside of that?
sydero asked me how i realized i was trans even after i clicked the cis male option 😭
am i weird for having a thing for the entity, like bro their attitude is hot im sorry 😭
don’t worry, you can flirt n fuck them in a later season
unfortunately my own virginity cock blocked me
wait what the fuck. is this for real!?!?
Me when I play this game:
Learning to fight is not useful, you only win when the game wants you to win.
guys HELP my friend wants to play this on an android phone but it wont download for them, why doesnt it work?
You can js play it in the browser no need to download it
Or use joiplay
Im pretty sure its biological tough, so u should choose female
Does anyone know why my game won't save? Whenever I try it just says "an error has occurred. You may be able to continue, but some parts may not work properly."
"Also DO NOT play this game using the itch.io app. The save system will produce an error and though you can play, will disallow you from saving."
TY!! :)
