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.

I went in and slayed the princess. Glad to see the goal through to the end. I think the universe might have ended, not really sure about that. Job's a job, and I got it done.
This game has become everything to me. That's all I can say. I don't think I've ever felt something so deep for a game as I have Slay the Princess. Thank you for this absolute masterpiece.
reviewing this game is honestly one of the hardest things to do, because every good thing may be a spoiler that shouldn't have been said for the sake of the experience. Slay the Princess is truly a special game and a special experience like no other if you give it the chance. all your choices matter, all of them influence what happens, the interactions are unique and the payoff is amazing. the game is very cruel to you, but it is also truly the kindest. the game's very first message to you is also one best to describe it, if you are willing please walk this journey on your own. "Whatever horrors you may find in these dark spaces, have heart and see them through. There are no premature endings. There are no wrong decisions. There are only fresh perspectives and new beginnings. This is a love story."
