The throne room smells like old blood and lilac perfume. That's the first thing. Karder Dal-Arouya, this queen mother's stolen kingdom, and you're supposed to care about some royal lineage while the screen fills with hentai CGs that feel like they were drawn on a napkin during a fever dream. The visual novel bits are there, sure, but the writing is like someone translated a bad fanfic through three languages and then gave up halfway. Which, honestly, kind of works for the eldritch kink vibe I'm chasing. You get these battle scenes where the violence is just... there. No weight. Then suddenly a lesbian scene with the queen's guard and it's all soft moans and pixelated fluids. The gay content is similarly abrupt, like the game remembered it had a tag list to fulfill.

I spent way too long trying to figure out if the queen is actually a mother or just called that. The game never clarifies. There's a moment where Karder fights some shadow thing and the dialogue says "your crown is dust" and then immediately cuts to a CG of two women going at it on a throne. No transition. I respect that. The art is ugly in a way that loops back around to being fascinating, like looking at a cursed tapestry. The battle mechanics are just clicking through text options, but sometimes the wrong choice leads to a sex scene instead of death, which is either a bug or a feature. I'm still not sure.

The sound design is nonexistent except for one looping track that sounds like a dying synthesizer. I muted it after five minutes. The game doesn't care about your immersion. It just wants to show you bodies colliding in badly drawn rooms. There's a scene where the queen mother gets... actually, never mind. You'll find it. Or you won't. The game doesn't guide you anywhere. It just sits there, like a wet dream you can't wake up from.
