[後半に日本語レビューあり] [h1]In a Medieval Court Awash in Ambition and Vice, a Villainess Plays Her Game of Schemes[/h1] Set in the medieval city of Rosegate, this is a choice-driven VN starring a noblewoman who carries both an insatiable hunger for power and a deep existential emptiness. Will she climb to the top of a court consumed by scheming and betrayal, or will her own arrogance be her undoing? The real appeal here is that her very personality takes shape through the player's choices. The game's core lies in a system where choices reshape not just the plot but the protagonist's personality itself. Whether she becomes a calculating political schemer, leans into dominance, or embraces a more submissive streak (often signaled clearly through icons on the choice prompts) branches the story toward multiple distinct endings. Light RPG elements (a funds/resource system) are woven in too, giving the experience an interactive edge beyond pure reading. Rival factions and evolving relationships with several other characters keep the story moving, and each playthrough feels worth repeating. The worldbuilding is dense as well, with an in-game encyclopedia that deepens the sense of immersion. What…

The writing in this game is absolutely exceptional. The vocabulary is advanced and highly precise, and the sentence structure feels incredibly cinematic. I also really love the meticulously crafted dialogue and word choices tailored to different characters based on their personalities and settings, especially the brilliant use of archaic English. The plot is just as amazing, making me want to go back and try all the other choices.

After finishing episode 1 I am completely blown away. This is really a hidden gem, I am mesmerized by the writing. The fact this is written from the villains perspective is a plus for me. Would absolutely love an anime adaptation, but for now I am looking forward to episode 2 and all upcoming expansions. One thing I'm not really a fan of is the AI used primarily for the backgrounds, especially for a game that's not free. The artstyle of the characters, their body proportions and even stuff like their hair color during the scenes is not entirely identical to the sprites and there is also (as of now) one short scene of the main character, where the artstyle completely changes.

Well written characters, interesting plot, I think there is a lot of promise and I cannot wait for the next update to the story to see where it goes.

Normally I am not a big fan of VN but this game has me playing for hours at a time without noticing the time pass. The story is very interesting and engaging with lots of political intrigue and well written characters. The humor is also quite well written as it leans more into a dry absurdist kind of humor which I personally like a lot. The scenes (don't forget the patch from the publishers website) are very rewarding and naturally implemented. I can really only recommend getting the game and it is still in very active development and the Dev said it will be about twice as long as it already is rn

So im curious I bought the game but it seems to keep telling me I need to wait for part 2 of chapter 2 Is it because I have an old version or something how do I get the new version?
