Schwarzesmarken is a visual novel adaptation of the light novel series of the same name. It was released in two parts.

Synopsis

High treason against the state. Theodor, a pilot with the East German military whose family bears a tainted past, is sent to the 666th Company. Known as the Schwarzesmarken, they’re a unit that focuses on destroying the enemy even at the cost of letting their comrades die. He meets the cold and calculating commander Irisdina and the idealistic Katia, and begins to doubt the way he’s lived his life.

Routes

The second part of the game includes three routes for the three main heroines, Katia Waldheim, Irisdina Bernhard and Lise Hohenstein based on affection points generated by the choices the player during the game. Choices the player made in the first part carry over.

Release

Schwarzesmarken was originally released in two parts. The first part, Bloodstained Crest (紅血の紋章 Kouketsu no Monshou) released on November 27th 2015, covering the events of the first three light novels in the series, up to Operation Neptune. The second part, The Martyrs (殉教者たち Junkyousha-tachi) followed on October 28 2016, concluding the story with three distinct endings. The anime aired inbetween these two releases.

On July 28 2017 a double pack collection containing both parts of the game was released in Japan.

An official English release is currently not available. Both parts were approved by Steam Greenlight, Steam's quality control system at the time, for an eventual release.
