You're here to slay the princess. Don't believe her lies.

Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Every market we collect.
Charts
Each storefront's own chart, in its own country — the closest public signal to sales where none is published. A country missing from a list is one we don't collect there, not one where the game doesn't chart.
No United States chart position — it charts only in the markets below.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.

About
You're on a path in the woods, and at the end of that path is a cabin. And in the basement of that cabin is a Princess.
You're here to slay her. If you don't, it will be the end of the world.
She will do everything in her power to stop you. She'll charm, and she'll lie, and she'll promise you the world, and if you let her, she'll kill you a dozen times over. You can't let that happen. Don't forget, the fate of the world rests on your shoulders.
You're not going to listen to him, are you? We're supposed to save princesses, not slay them...
Features
Fully voice-acted by the impeccable Jonathan Sims and Nichole Goodnight.
Hand-penciled art - every background and sprite is drawn traditionally with pencil and paper by Ignatz-winning graphic novelist Abby Howard.
A princess. She's very bad and you have to get rid of her for all our sakes.
No, the Princess isn't a “cosmic horror,” whatever that is supposed to mean. She's just an ordinary human Princess, and you can definitely slay her as long as you put your mind to it.
Don't even think about trying to romance her. It won't end well for you.
Hopefully you won't die. But if you do, you'll die a lot. Be careful and stay focused on the task at hand!
A branching narrative where what you say and what you believe determines both who you are and how the story unfolds. Though I wouldn’t recommend taking any paths outside of the one I lay before you.
A new roleplaying experience from the creators of Scarlet Hollow.
Slay the Princess is a choice-driven psychological horror visual novel/dating sim with dramatic branching, light RPG elements, and hand-penciled art.
What’s in the Pristine Cut?
3 brand new chapters replete with mysteries—and consequences.
Expansions to familiar routes. The Den, The Apotheosis and The Fury each have each more than doubled in length.
Over 35% more content overall—and all of it filled with great opportunities to listen to me and do your job.
A new ending. And hopefully one that saves the world rather than damns it.
Track Your Progress: Cherish your memories, relive your exploits, and uncover deeply hidden secrets with the new gallery feature.
Over 1,200 New Hand-Penciled Frames hand-illustrated by Abby Howard.
Over 2,500 New Lines of Dialogue fully voiced dialogue by the impeccable Jonathan Sims and Nichole Goodnight.

Reviews
This is a horror game. This is a love story. This is everything and it is nothing. Ok, I'll stop being weird and cryptic, I ain't no Shifting Mound. When I say it is a horror game, I say that in the lightest way possible. It's more a comedy then anything, with the occasional gore or body horror moment, and a little bit of excistentialism, so even if you are not the biggest horror fan, you can enjoy this game, just check the content warning guidelines for what you can handle. And it is a love story. Oh boy is it a love story. Without getting into spoilers, it is very sweet and wholesome in some parts, and a bit not in others, but every route has some (sometimes blatent, sometimes subtle) messaging about love. Do play this game, it is one of my favorites. Also, know that in order to get to the true endings, you need to play through it 5 times, so just be aware of that before you drop it too early thinking you won.

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 23 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 14 places towards #1, and the 2,515 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

为什么分裂？身不由己。 为什么历经谋害，背叛，合作，拯救后还能存在信任？还是身不由己。
Black Tabby nunca decepciona. Si te gustan los juegos narrativos con elecciones múltiples que desencadenen finales inesperados, y despierten tu curiosidad por saber qué habría pasado si hubieses escogido otra ruta, este es EL juego. Es increíble. Cada decisión cuenta (y de verdad, no como otros juegos), tiene consecuencias y la profundidad de la historia es bestial. El apartado artístico es precioso, auténtica fantasía oscura (con notas de terror visual) de las buenas. Después de este, llegó Scarlet Hollow, historia diferente pero mismo peso en el aspecto de 'las decisiones importan'. Tony y Abby son unos genios a la hora de crear este tipo de juegos.
[h1] “Behold, the perfect woman!” — Voice of the Stubborn [/h1] [h3]Story - 10/10[/h3] If this game caught your attention - AVOID SPOILERS AT ALL COSTS. The more natural is your first experience with it - the better. Narrative is hands-down the best thing this game has to offer, and, in my humble opinion, it's one of the most memorable, unique, diverse stories in entire gamedev history. It combines a bit of everything and manages to polish all the aspects to perfection: it's intriguing, it's mysterious, it's wholesome, it's hilarious, it's terrifying, depressing, hopeful, thrilling, heartwarming and heartbreaking. Like the game says at the very beginning - there are no wrong choices or premature endings. And it is a love story, You'll just have to be strong to experience it right until the end. [h3]Gameplay - 5/10[/h3] It's... a visual novel. With numerous branches. There isn't really any "gameplay" to speak of, other than just selecting dialogue options in particular order. And after you're done with the first playthrough - constantly reloading, starting over, trying to hunt down every option that you haven't tried, to earn yourself a 100% completion trophy. That doesn't mean it's inherently bad. But if you're here for something other than a beautifully illustrated, voiced, written novel that you'll just... read/listen to - I'm afraid you won't find it here. [h3]Graphics - 8/10[/h3] The heavily stylized, black and white, pencil drawn visuals - that's not for everyone's taste, and there are few games that would work well with it. This is one such perfect exception. It suits it to a tee. The atmosphere it builds is deliberately bleak, depressing, unnerving, desperate or horrifying. And the Princess's design is just... phenomenal. All of it. The few colored elements that we get to see only serve as perfect highlights. [h3]Sound - 10/10[/h3] Two voices in total. Approximately 150000 words (for comparison - LotR: Return of the King had ~137k). And the result is something that could easily earn the reward for best voice acting on TGA, if only it's organizers weren't so easily bought. One male voice and one female voice, that somehow manage to voice dozens of distinct characters,. Each one having a voice that's familiar enough to be one person, and yet distinct enough to always know which character is speaking. And the soundtrack and sound design that complements their talent, as well as writers' talent perfectly. [h1]Conclusion[/h1] 9/10. This isn't a "game", just like many solid visual novels are. It is a beautifully crafted tale. You won't get to play it, but if you give it a chance - you'll experience a narrative that will clench and warm your heart for the rest of your days, whenever a memory of it resurfaces.
the best story-driven game ive ever played! got me in the feels
