Slay the Princess on Steam (steampowered.com)
- An existentially horrific visual novel, with an incredibly well-written plot, a beautiful score and graphics that will enrapture all senses. One of the best narrative games of 2023.”
- 10/10 – Voxel Smash
- “There isn’t a single thing I don’t like about Slay the Princess. The presentation is beautiful, the story is fantastic and moving, the voice acting of amazing characters is done phenomenally well, and the branching paths of the story give you what feels like unlimited possibilities.”
- 10/10 – Try Hard Guides
- “Slay the Princess will stay with you for a long time, I think. It’s absurdist and dark and haunting in a way that not a lot of games are. If you have an itch for something that’s spooky but also morally confronting and you will be thinking about it for days to come, it’s impossible not to recommend this.”
- A- – Player 2
Game Details and Features
"Slay the Princess" has a unique setting where the player heads to a cabin in the woods and confronts the 'princess' underground. Because she poses a threat to the world, the player must defeat her. She will try to seduce and deceive the player, promising the world, but don't fall for it. If you let your guard down for even a moment, she will defeat you.
This game doesn't particularly include cosmic horror elements. Also, time moves linearly without any time-loop features. If the player acts carefully, they can clear the game without failing multiple times.
This game is gaining attention as a new role-playing experience by the creators of "Scarlet Hollow." If you're interested, please add it to your wishlist and participate in the localization survey. This will help the developers gauge interest.
