Should you play it?

The once prosperous kingdom of Avon now lies in tatters with nothing left in its coffers and a pitiful four citizens to its name. Yet even in its darkest hour, Princess Ariadne is determined to restore it to its former glory. Will her perseverance carry her through?

What works
  • Extensive and deep story with complex characters
  • Large amount of adult content with diverse fetishes
  • Multiple endings and new game+ for replayability
  • Rich soundtrack and voice acting
  • Customization of equipment and brothel management
Things to keep in mind
  • Gameplay is mostly auto-battle with limited player control
  • Ui and interface are clunky and confusing
  • Requires heavy grinding and repetitive tasks
  • Bugs and technical issues affect experience
  • Art style inconsistent due to multiple artists

Similarity map

Each dot is a game. They are arranged from the same motivation profile as in the “Why this game works” section below. Closer dots usually mean more similar reasons to play (exploration, competition, relaxation, etc.)—not that one game is “better” than another.

  • Purple star: this page’s game — everything on the map is relative to it.
  • Coloured chips: click to highlight games that mainly differ on that motivation; click again to reset.
  • Dotted line: link between this page’s game and the one selected for comparison.
  • Hover a dot for a screenshot preview, score, and top score gaps; click to compare in the panel on the right.
  • Scroll or double-click the chart to zoom out and see more games.

Why don’t the axes read like a score? This view uses t-SNE: it only keeps who is close to whom. The scales are not “good to bad” or hours played—they separate groups on the map. Read distance between dots, not the axis numbers (hidden on purpose).

How to Build a Magnificent Kingdom: Less representative of its motivational profile, with noticeable differences.
