    Literally never heard of it but the dev thinks if I get it for free I will want to give him money. It shows a level of confidence in the product that encourages me want to check it out.

      It’s well-deserved confidence. The game alone would have been intriguing with just the sheer amount of choice that’s available, but the fact that it’s all excellently voiced is icing on the truly delicious cake. It’s one of those games that probably will only keep your attention for one or two full playthroughs, but those playthroughs will definitely be different for every person. If you want to give it a shot during the Summer Sale, you can finish at least the first part of a playthrough well under the refund time for Steam, in case it’s not your kind of game.

      It was good enough that I didn’t even wait for a sale. I pirated it, then found it worthy of my immediate purchase the moment I had the spare funds. And on top of that, my entire exposure to it was word of mouth from a friend. You can’t go wrong just trying it!

      Their other game is on par or even better. Check that out if you dig Slay the Princess.

      I saw some previous news coverage of the Devs saying they’d rather players pirate it than have it spoiled for them, and I went in blind and bought it full price. I don’t generally play this kind of game but I thoroughly enjoyed it.
