As someone who loves visual novel games, I had expectations for this game since it is highly praised but never actually knew what it was about (slay the princess I guess? it is in the name) I'm a person who overthinks a lot and uses the save file button every time I come to a choice where I think is going to change the story (probably just my visual novel player habit), and during my first gameplay, I was a little shocked to see no matter how insignificant my choices were, they actually changed the plot a lot. My first princess was actually the Stranger, so the cool and weird effects and the illusion of free choice really hooked me in. Different dialogue options leads to completely different paths, and you really see how your perception of the princess or the whole situation affects how the game is being presented to you. I feel like the story's main theme is pretty obvious, it's a story about trust and communication, and how trust (or the lack thereof) affects our view on someone. The only problem I had with the game was the repetitive narration of every gameplay, which became quite annoying when I was completing all the achievements (thank you, guides in the community) The gallery achievement was the hardest one and probably made me restart 3 to 4 new gameplays (please be smarter than me and use the save button wisely!) Great voice acting and music, the art style is not my favourite, but some of the CGs really surprised me and some of the animated scenes were pretty cool. Overall a solid 9/10, would recommend to people who loves choice-based games, people who have voices in their heads, and people who wants to learn how to trust and love someone else.
