Appearances will be deceiving

You might be on a quest to a cabin. And contained in the cabin, there’s a princess. However because the title implies, Slay the Princess is just not essentially a couple of valiant rescue.

Fairly, you’re going to should do some slaying.

Developer Black Tabby Video games introduced its subsequent venture, Slay the Princess, right now. And it’s a good pitch. You’re in your solution to a cabin within the woods to kill a princess. Do that, and also you’ll save the world. Fail, and also you doom it. However she’s a princess, proper? How unhealthy might she actually be?

Properly, watch the trailer beneath and draw your individual conclusions.

The story performs on belief, alternative, and naturally, a lot of horror. As a result of regardless of any quick takes on the matter, this princess is much more than simply that. Because the Steam web page notes, you’ll in all probability die loads in your quest. Additionally, don’t attempt to romance her, or speak to her, or hear her out. But additionally, who’s to say this narrator is reliable both?

Not fairly a knight in shining armor

Slay the Princess is a extremely cool idea, and from a reasonably fascinating crew too. Black Tabby Video games had some word-of-mouth going a couple of earlier horror journey, Scarlet Hole. It’s clear the crew has some chops in terms of writing fascinating horror narratives.

Plus, from the trailer alone, the artwork model appears incredible. And the voice work from Jonathan Sims and Nichole Goodnight provides a ton, too. It jogs my memory a little bit of fellow pencil-sketch horror recreation Mundaun, blended with a visible novel-style presentation. With some branching paths, potential loops, and possibly some secrets and techniques to uncover, Black Tabby Video games has my consideration.

Slay the Princess is aiming for a 2023 launch. Those that can’t wait can get early entry to a two-hour demo by way of Black Tabby’s Patreon right here.
