Slay the Princess

[GenDenelith]

Felt I should mention a really great indie visual novel style game called Slay the Princess.  It isn't really unknown as its sitting at 97% positive on steam with nearly 24,000 reviews, but still worth mentioning here.  Not usually my style of game as I can't usually just sit down and basically read a story much anymore.  Blame ARPGs for frying my brain I guess.

But the writing, voice acting, setting, art, and music are all amazing in this game.  Seems like a silly premise that might have a "haha!" style fourth wall twist but... it's a lot more than you'd think.  It's got some slight horror elements, psychological horror, romance, and a lot of introspection on your part as the player.  I'd say more but I'd really like people to go into it blind if at all possible.

I say if you're looking for a great story, you can't go wrong with this.
