-get to know the game
-think it's an intriguing adventure
-full of paths, twists and emotions
-a moral dilemma
-buy the game
-play
-discover that you're stuck in a time loop
-it's just one place, the same scenery that keeps changing its appearance endlessly
-the same dialogues, the same people, endlessly
-repeat the same dialog 50000 times
-just skip the dialogues, you're already tired of reading them
-kill or save the princess, it doesn't matter
-keep going until you get somewhere
-discover that they're just confused “gods”
-they don't know what they are
-the author of the game doesn't know either
-you don't know either
-no one knows
-play for 2 hours and get blurred vision from reading the same things over and over again
-be covered in “philosophical” drivel
-all the answers are like: “you don't understand, it's hard to explain, I'm an entity”
-the game has no message
-"it's all conceptual, you don't understand”
-exactly the same as the characters
-nothing matters
-dying, killing, saving, everything leads to the same place, there's no happy or sad ending.
-there are several confused princesses, without any criteria, totally random and without personality
-you have zero interest in discovering more irrelevant endings
-go to the support page to ask for a refund, discover that it's been more than 14 days since you bought the game and now there's no way to get your money back, you're stuck with a mentally fragmented entity in the form of a princess, an irrelevant narrator and yourself, apparently a bird that can't look at itself in the mirror. Where are we? What is the world? Who are we? Knowing these things makes absolutely no difference, there is no consolation or purpose, you will either cease to exist or live forever, in no scenario will these things matter. You'll want to erase your own memory over and over again in the hope that you won't get bored the next time you repeat the same story. Kill or save the princess, it doesn't matter, it's the same. Discover that they are entities, confused gods, building themselves and then destroying themselves, you don't know what they are, they don't know what they are, the author doesn't know what they are, nobody knows anything, it's all a mess, play until you get the picture, go to the refund page, but you bought it on 01/01/2025, it's been 14 days, there's no refund, you're stuck... A! I'm sorry, am I repeating the same things? That's exactly what the game does. It would be fine if it was interesting, but it's boring, it has no purpose, no message, there's a person before playing Slay the Princess and there's a person after playing Slay the Princess, they're exactly the same person.

A wholesome love story between a princess, a hero, and some voices in his head.

10/10 would be on a path in the woods again

It a cute romantic game

This is a visual novel for people disappointed in visual novels. This is not a game that accounts for every decision in a way to make sure you end up in the same place at the end. It is a game that carefully thinks out what the player chooses, and more importantly why they choose it, and reflects back to the player who they are behind the choice. It is the first game I have played that uses the medium of a visual novel as a means to challenge a player to reflect on their choices. It's also a game willing to let the player live in blissful ignorance if they completely miss the point.

I recommend this game to anyone who enjoys story rich games that do not need a mechanic-heavy experience. The only "gameplay" is clicking on the text you want to say or do next. If you are anything like me this game's story will leave you thinking long after you've finished.

I CAN FIX HER

Okay but seriously, I loved this game. It is so well written and there are so many paths to take, so no two playthroughs are the same. At this point, I've only played through this game a couple of times, but none could never compare to my first playthrough. I don't know, there's something about the first one that stuck with me: the dialogue, the music, the overall impact... If I could wipe my memory and play this again, I would.

This truly was a love story, and a wonderful one at that, albeit grim in some aspects.

But a good love story nonetheless.

The story is much more than it appears to be; who are you and what is she-
At the very start the game will have you questioning if your choices truly matter since everything seems to lead to the same outcome. Though it quickly switches up to "who will you believe and is this the right choice".

10/10 narration the way the story is told to you makes it fun and dare I say a little funny at times.
Seems to be a very short story, but definitely worth the money as it can be replayed for multiple outcomes.

I was gaslit for 11 hours and I loved every minute.

What do I even say about this game that hasn't been said. Its an absolute masterpiece of storytelling that will beat you down and pick you back up. Its scary, its interesting, its thought provoking, and most importantly its absolutely beautiful. If by chance you haven't picked this game up and played it and are seeing this comment, please please please do yourself a favor and try it. It will absolutely entrance you within the first two hours and if it doesn't there's always refunding it. I want to say more but I honestly can't think of what to say other than PLEASE BUY IT AND EXPERIENCE IT FOR YOURSELF. It is worth every penny and more.

This is one of my favorite games ever, better said, one of my favorite stories ever!
Every time I return to make one more run in this game I notice a symbolism i didn't get before, a narrative so round and concise, there is no wasted lines, I would even dare to say it's life changing on how it explores concepts of death, change and finality.
