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.

Es como cuando dicen "los que se pelean se aman", pero con trastorno de identidad disociativo y una narrador castroso, fuera de broma creo que desarrollé sentimientos reales por la princesa.

This is a love story
good game
Narrative seni kandırıyor
This game honestly changed me. This is the first time that I've ever written a review for a game, so I wanted to write it after I fully completed the memories and it is absolutely my favorite game as of now. The different endings and choices were unbelievably fun to go through, and I know even now that I haven't went through all of them. Playing this game made me feel like it's actually possible for me to make the visual novel game I've wanted to make for ages, and the beautiful art felt like a reminder that I need to draw more often, even though things like AI have been making it feel hopeless. This probably sounds really dramatic and my review won't make much of a difference, but this game seriously made such a huge impact on me in the small amount of time I've spend playing it. I don't really buy games that often, but if I could play it for the first time all over again, I would do so in a heartbeat.
Didn't like this one, the start is intriguing, the middle lost it flavor but still fun seeing the interaction of the "voices", the end feels very nonsensical and forced. It also supposed to be a love story, but I really don't get it at all, I guess if you try deeply to make it as a a love a story it can be? But Idk, at that point it feels more like projecting the idea that this is love story rather than the game itself being one, if it make sense.
This game is expertly written - the dialogue, general messages of transformation, and variety in paths is expert-level. Beyond that, the art style is captivating and entrancing, and the music design is top-tier. I don't think I have anything critical to say about this game - 10/10 would recommend.
Por que estou chorando?
I love this game, the writing is really well thought out and touching, the characters feels fleshed out, the art is phenomenal, the voice acting is on point. Amazing job Black Tabby Games
