Great news all around! (Besides the needed computer repairs of course, but hopefully that goes smoothly). Thank you for the update and for your hard work.  <3

Hope everything's going well (and that your mother's doing better)! Looking forward to the next route. :)

The Leo branch of the route is so freaking good!! I knew I was going to enjoy it but I'm honestly kind of blown away. It may actually be my favourite route so far, and that's in spite of it having a lot of stiff competition. I loved the way the relationship developed over time, especially starting from the initial proposal and the inception of the true alliance onward. Super enjoyable and honestly really touching.

I think I want to try Vesala's branch next assuming I can find my way onto it, haha. In any case, this update is phenomenal.

I made it! \o/

SPOILERS

I got the Tyrant Queen ending! I was really nervous about whether I'd be able to pull it off, but as soon as Mother declared for me I knew I had it in the bag, haha.

I spent most of the route vacillating between feeling bad for Guillaume and anticipating the look on his face once the plan came to fruition.

That was great fun! Wonderfully intricate and well-written! 

Next I'm going to take it from the top and see about some romance. I'll probably start with Leopold — I loved the dynamic he and Iolanthe had in the other 

Guillaume route, and while I didn't see much of him this playthrough, I was definitely intrigued by what I saw

(not that I was going to pursue him right off the bat since I played Iolanthe as uninterested in men this time around).

Thank you so much for this splendid update!

And sorry that the formatting of this comment is wonky: there's something wrong with the reply box today.

I just got to the point where the direction the loveless route is going to take is revealed and I'm SO excited! Thank you so much for your hard work!

Right, of course! For whatever reason that didn't cross my mind even though it makes tons of sense. 

Thank you! Off to play now. 😊

Super excited about the new route! However, for whatever reason I can't actually select the "No one" option when starting a new game. I tried different options and even re-downloaded the game (it's definitely the newest version since the ending list has updated), but I can't get it to work.

Wonderful news! I can't wait to explore the new route!

Just sending a quick message to say I hope you're doing well. All the best!

Wonderful! Thank you for your hard work!

Even at 60% complete it's a MASSIVE game: I'm pretty sure each of the completed routes is at least as long as The Rose of Segunda is in its entirety. Honestly, I'm super impressed by how many routes we already have considering the sheer amount of work that must have gone into them and it's already one of my all-time favourite VNs.

Just leaving a quick comment to say I hope you're doing well and that I still think about this game all the time. Thank you so much. ❤

Wondeful! Thank you for the update.

I made this account specifically to leave a review for this game. I love The Rose of Segunda too, but this game is on another level. Already, it's one of my favourite VNs of all time.

It's honestly hard for me to decide what my favourite route is: they're all excellent. Ultimately, I think it might be Sofia's: I've always had a soft spot for her. Guillaume's was honestly painful to read at times, but in a good way where it's really stuck with me. I loved exploring the different outcomes on his route in particular. Overall, I'm really impressed by how smoothly you continue each of the stories from RoS.

Finally, I'd like to say your prose is excellent: wonderfully descriptive without ever feeling like too much. You imbue the characters with so much personality!

Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful work with us. All the best in the future.
