Slay the Princess — The Pristine Cut

the best story-driven game ive ever played! got me in the feels

[h1]9/10[/h1] I like it, its nice Minor [spoiler]game structure,[/spoiler] [spoiler]character name,[/spoiler] [spoiler]and Location/Object name[/spoiler] spoilers ahead One thing that I [spoiler]really liked[/spoiler] is [spoiler]how certain [spoiler]chapters[/spoiler] have completely [spoiler]different dialog[/spoiler] based on how you got to that [spoiler]chapter[/spoiler]. Example [spoiler]"Chapter 3: The princess and the dragon"[/spoiler] <- Which was [spoiler]my favorite[/spoiler] [spoiler] chapter[/spoiler] btw [/spoiler] The [spoiler]sound design[/spoiler] was also [spoiler]amazing[/spoiler] [spoiler]The [spoiler]Narrator[/spoiler]'s VA has also done an absolutely superb job, I liked the [spoiler]Princes[/spoiler]'s VA too, but the [spoiler]Narrator[/spoiler] was absolutely amazing[/spoiler] [spoiler]By [spoiler]Narrator[/spoiler]'s VA I obviously mean all the [spoiler]Voice of ...[/spoiler] too[/spoiler] [spoiler]Kinda funny thing is I immidietly got the "good ending", so I was scared of a random ending popping up so I made a lot of saves... took me a while to realise that the game is extremely lenient, and has no way to "lose"[/spoiler] [spoiler]Overall pretty cool game, I yet to get all endings/achievement tho, there are so many[/spoiler] On the technical side I had times where on scene changes the [spoiler]Mirror[/spoiler] didn't dissapear at the same time as the rest of the [spoiler]upper room[/spoiler], but other than that I had absolute no issues running the game. No bugs, no framedrops, no crashes [spoiler](other than the intended crash by trying to outwait forever obviously)[/spoiler] [spoiler]I got some minor nitpicks for certain [spoiler]chapters[/spoiler], and some other stuff, but overall they are extremely insignificant +I had a good time so who cares, cool game[/spoiler]

I liked the story, definitely going to complete all the endings

its beautiful

great game made me and my friend cry

As someone who has been longing for a game built around a similar premise, this right here was right up my alley. The sheer scope of the game is difficult to convey without experiencing it firsthand; the multitude of choices spanning across the chapters, changing the scenes and dialogue, is what makes this game truly great. Simply put, the voices are absolutely top-notch, both the narrator [spoiler]and the voices that accompany us throughout the game[/spoiler] and the Princess' performance, which adapts seamlessly to every situation with her voice - one moment it's soothing, while the next it's tense and rough. Without beating around the bush, the writing of the game is spectacular. It's by far the defining factor that makes [i]Slay the Princess[/i] the masterpiece that it is. Not only does it leave you pondering for hours after seemingly simple and mundane questions, but once you grasp what they truly mean and try to convey, everything suddenly becomes incredibly deep and poetic. Every scene is seamlessly woven into the narrative, never breaking the pace or the immersion that the game draws you into. Not to mention the beautifully hand-drawn artwork, and the sheer amount of unique illustrations the game has to offer. After all, how hard could 'slaying the Princess' actually be?

Definitely took me through an array of emotions on it's twists and turns. Simple to play, yet elegant. And quite intriguing on the stories.

One of the best games ive played this year. I dont understand the complete meaning of this yet (ill probably watch a yt video about it),but it was amazing nonetheless.

great game

Genuinely one of the most beautiful games I've ever played, if you like story driven games, this is a MUST PLAY
