Slay the Princess is a 2023 horror adventure game developed and published by Black Tabby Games for Microsoft Windows, Linux, and macOS systems. It was released on October 23, 2023. The game is conceptually a twist on the damsel-in-distress archetype; rather than saving the princess, the objective is to kill her.

Runs well on modern hardware.

This game was so beautifully made, the creators behind it did an amazing job and the two main voice actors could do no wrong! Just freshly 100 percented the game and loved every second of it! (besides the struggling with the gallery card collecting, it was a tough battle I had to win) Finishing the game feels so right but...why do I feel so cold?
Get out of the reviews and play an incredibly important game spoiler-free! Shoo! Shoo! Out with you!!
It took me a bit to have somewhat of an understanding of what the hell was going on. I found myself bored in the beginning because it was all so confusing but as I progressed, more of the pieces started to click. The art and narration is really enjoyable. That being said, I hate the way this game makes me feel. It's depressing. Yet I keep coming back to it.
