Sept. 2024
Well-written branching alternate-history Machiavellian French Revolution scheming simulator with a simple but compelling gameplay loop (where balls and soirées are a battlefield and your outfit choices are tactical) and a surprising depth of choice. Much more nuanced and complex than it appears at first glance, and it has replay value due to the different possible paths, relationships and endings.

Absolutely fantastic game. Extremely interesting and varied characters, though you'll need a strategy guide to find them all (and pay for all recruitable characters). There's tons of replayability in it as you can go extremely different directions in any one playthrough. Mechanically, there are some issues. it can bug out on occasion, and it doesn't always register when you've already met certain NPCs and treats interactions as first-time meetings. Nothing too bothersome, though. Some achievements (like the one for finishing the game with any ending) are bugged and won't unlock, but again that's a trivial thing.

any dating sim where there's a serious risk of getting beheaded is a 10/10 from me such a good idea to set a sim during a fraught period of history, and i'm mad there aren't more

I have yet to finish the game. How ever, i do like all the different storylines. They are well written, and engaging. the mechanics in the game was running smoothly until i declined an invitation in my 3rd hour of the game. Then i couldn't accept or decline anything - so i have restarted my game and started from scratch, which is fine, as i wanted to try again anyways, cause i made quite a few poor decisions.. - i will update if the same bug happens to me again. i bought the game on steam sale for 6.99 pounds I think, which is a very good price for the game, but its been sat in my wishlist for a while, cause i feel the original price is a bit steep for what the game is. - The design is beautiful, storyline engaging, but the mechanics of the game can become a dull after a bit and feel like you are running in circles.

There was plenty of game in this dating simulator, and quite obviously very different paths to take (I only played it once). For me, the fiancee was the least interesting of all the characters; the game allowed me to pretty much ignore him except for a few obligatory scenes to cary the main plot forward. I would have loved for game to have adapted the main plot more strongly to the characters i did partner with. Still, was thoroughly gripped and binged my run in one sitting.
