Hello again! Hope your summer is going well ☀️
With the public release of this new chapter we’re getting into the meat of what it's like to be the Crown on a daily basis, with some very important decisions to make, as well as consequences from previous chapters coming into play:
Additional scenes for those of you who chose to meet with Eshkar directly in CH12
Different choices and options on how to deal with Keeper Bazo depending on whether you forgave him, condemned him, or did not judge him back in CH7
Having to make several decisions about public petitions submitted to you from the citizens as well as other officials
Additional scenes during the court meeting for A and R romancers, as well as a minor variation for D romancers depending on if you successfully defended them from the court in CH11: these are new for those of you who played the early access, so I would recommend replaying the chapter from scratch!
And, of course, more romance at the end: D and X romancers make a consequential decision that will check their romance for the high/low status again. A and R romancers are safe, this time...
A few additional changes made to the game overall:
Added a summary of the main choices your Crown has made so far when transitioning from CH12 to CH13
Added a small snippet of text in the Relationships screen clarifying what it means to get a 'high' romance or a 'low' romance status
Thank you for all your patience and support, I hope you enjoy the new chapter with the start of the summer 💖
For those that are unfamiliar with the game
A Tale of Crowns is a high fantasy romance story, told in the form of a text-based interactive novel with choice mechanics. The setting is inspired by Kurdish culture as well as other historical settings in the Middle East such as Ancient Persia, but it also draws heavily from other cultures and countries in the region.
Your character is native to Arsur, a vast empire overseen by a single ruler known as the Crown. Unlike traditional monarchies, however, the title is not inherited through blood. Whenever the Crown dies, their famed golden eyes pass on to the one chosen by the Spirits of this world to be the new Crown. In this story, your MC takes on that role.
There are four different love interests to choose from, whose genders will be customized to suit the preferences of your Crown. You can find more info about them on the blog page!
Also note that this current version of the game is safe for those 16 years and older.
