Love the courtly intrigue of this game there are so few like it honestly was slightly disappointed when if finished for no other reason then I just wanted to keep playing however the game has many paths so I think most readers will be satisfied with its length and replay ability

*2018-07-01*

This game has so many chances for replay, and honestly? Even if I play the exact same game/story, it’s still a great story that I love to read. 12/10 game, I genuinely don’t believe it could be better.

### 1/5 — Really guys?

*2018-05-20*

Since when does a free update cost $8.55?! I’d love to know exactly why you charged me money I didn’t agree to spend. The game is good but not worth my electric bill money.

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2017-01-20*

Good use of the money. Well written and many pathways to play. Highly recommend.

### 2/5 — Meh

*2017-01-02*

I personally feel that the story was focused on your rise to power more than actual romance. It wasn't quite the tale of love that I was expecting, but instead it was about conspiracies and people vying to climb to the top. I found myself disinterested at the start of the second part.

### 5/5 — The Best!!

*2016-10-12*

This game is fantastic!! It is well written. I enjoyed the characters and the plot. There are a variety of different paths and endings to find. If you get frustrated the first few times you play, don't stop. Keep trying, because you will find an ending that you like. Great job to the writers!
