Ren'Py - Completed - Long Live the Princess [v1.0.1] [Belle]

nice renders
nice animations
great story

game play is boring and with out a hint system you can get stuck not knowing what to do . Add the limited number of days you have to complete certain tasks it just get frustrating.
maybe when the new game + system is in place it will be at least worth missing certain things to comeback and play thorugh again with new dialog options

Honestly the best adult game I've played. The final form is incredible. I've played a few times I think there there may still be secrets to discover. The art and the girls are gorgeous and mostly feel unique and special. And the story and gameplay are surprisingly engrossing for such fap fest.

LLTP is a masterpiece and one of the best i ve ever seen...
PROS:
-The girls are gorgeous no less.Just few times i said 'dam wish i could be in MC''s place instead' and this is one of these.All of them are special in their own ways.
-The storytelling and thrill/adventure is awesome like crime-solving stuff,magic and those music that plays when you re doing these stuff...it set me up in the mood was so cool haha
-Eventhough it s just v0.30 there are much stuff going on around and i cant wait how it would be in later versions and in the full version.
-There were a few moments my eyes filled with tears and there were some moments i couldnt contain my laughter haha (mostly thanks to Belle though)
-The graphics are not the best i ve ever saw but it s great nonetheless and very enjoyable in my opinion.
-I told about the investigation music but the rest of them were enjoyable as well.Hope there ll be more around because it s important in setting the mood and makes the gameplay more enjoyable
CONS:
-The feeling you get when you see 'more content available in the future'
P.S: Belle is the best pixie ever. Aside from that i love Nell and Evelyn most i cant get enough of them they re so adorable but i said to Lea that i love her as well...this is surprising because i usually go after one or two girls most in games but these girls are very lovable and gorgeous and it proves that <3

To be honest I am not into stories involving fantasy, fae or magic and only started playing this as it had good revies and I was bored.

I very quickly fell in love with this game, the story is IMO amazing even though as stated its not something I would normaly look at, The charactors are great, I love Belle she is funny, cute, rude and crude but it suits her perfectly. The other charactors are also very good. TBH I can't wait for the next installment and the conclusion to the story.

If I was to make any negative judgements on it I would say that the animations could be better/smoother but in no way does it or should it put anyone off from playing this.

This game is completely outstanding in terms of plot and characters. im glad this is not another slideshow fiesta, there's actually gamplay in there with not that complicated but nonetheless engaging detective elements.

art: 8/10 sex scens could be a little longer
plot and characters: 10/10 hands down, Belle FTW
gameplay: 9/10, game has sandbox touch to it, but its not boring, as we doing some well written quests in between.

What can I say Belle this is one of the best games out there and I only have been compelled to donate to three games ( this one, battle for luvia, and being a dik).

it truly has great characters, stories, beautiful art, unique settings, and of course the lovable fairy companion.

five out of five in a heartbeat.

Im very impressed by this game and the development speed. Compared to other developers with x times more followers this game development speed is very good. I would like to compliment Belle for that.

Still gonna wait with playing until the game is finished tho. The early version I played gave me a very good impression.

Review of build v0.28.0...

I want to start off by saying that this game has the most beautiful character models I think I've seen in a renpy game to date. I would like to convey my everlasting gratitude to the dev for giving the female characters beautiful realistic bodies instead of ridiculous balloon tits with large thighs and fat asses.

The story is good. There is a lot of lore and exposition. The writing itself is well done with very few if at all spelling and grammar errors.

The characters are likable. They each have their own story and problem you have to figure out and help them with in a pseudo-detective fashion.

The sex scenes aren't bad. They're the typical set of images rotating back and forth. Not as good as actual fluid animation, but certainty not the worst I've seen. The sheer perfection of the models helps elevate the scenes.

There appears to be a pregnancy element, but it doesn't seem to be implemented in the current build. At the beginning you have a spell cast on you to make you sterile for 6 months, but as you play you discover another spell to undo it and you can start knocking up the women. I've plowed them all several times with no result, so like I said it may not be implemented yet.

I highly recommend this game. I eagerly look forward to the future updates and full completion.

I dont know how to put this but you are a total loser. I really mean it, like Japanese-level.

You grope sleeping girls, brainwash them to have sex with you and even change their sexuality just because you want to bang that lesbian.

The good thing it, you dont have to do that. It is all volunteerly but game heavily encourages you to do that.

Otherwise this game is quite unique and entertaining. You are looking out for clues to figure out peoples secrets. Now this sounds bad but trust me, you have a noble goal.

Characters are well made and music as well. This is one of those games where you literally bang everything that moves and your dick is your first priority.

If you have time try this out, 4/5.

Bonus: you have the best sidekick ever!

This is a great sandbox fantasy game. Tutorial part felt long and unpleasant for me but it is ok important to know how to play this game. Sandbox part is really working because give you the feel of free roam and act. MC is kind of creep but other characters (for exemple belle the pixie) makes him and situations funny. Lewd scene animations are smooth girls are all beauties.

The story is very nice and funny. The choice of mixing magic with investigation and psychology is interesting. The characters are well characterized and quite varied. The music is suitable when there is, good sound effect during the spells make the suspense of the circumstantial choice very well, absent or limited in many moments tends to flatten the atmosphere.
The subjects and environments are graphically well cared for even if the animations could be much better by adding frames to make them more fluid and pleasant.
Overall a good product which I hope will be perfected in the future.

Great potential to become the best storyline ever. Kudos to the details of the dialogues and few incoherences throughout the story. Need improvement on the sex scenes tho but definitely fixable. Haven't finish it yet but it's been awesome so far.

I honestly didn't like the game, renders are ok but I only find 3 attractive characters.
Story is boring, at first is interesting but the dialogues are so long that you get bored at the end with so much reading.
Gameplay is not straight forward, you will need a guide or you will waste time and mess up storylines, also you will have to grind like crazy and will get rewarded with few content.

This is a second review, after some time spend trying to discover the root of my issues with the gameplay the first time through.

I still find the game quite grindy, and in some areas difficult to know how to procede. Add in some seemingly random events, times and encounters, and the game can be a bit confusing. Without the forums, I would have never gotten to the current end of the game. Thus, I feel that the pathing needs to be a bit tighter.

However, the game is still very good. Bug free (save my corrupted save file once), has a very interesting investigation element and actually spends time on its own lore in a way that adds to the events of the game. I feel like even without the 'lewd' parts, you might still have a decent little fantasy mystery game here. There is still a long way to go (the princess needs to arrive, more material with Primrose and the priestess, Lilith, and some actual "dark" decisions would be nice), but so far this is a solid foundation that most games here simply do not have.

So I am upping my review score and will keep a weather eye on the game. If I see more, the score will continue to go up.

Simple review :
Art : 9/10
Story : 9/10
Gameplay* : 10/10
* since it is VN-type game by gameplay i mean such as the choice matters or not, how many options we can choose, etc..
Bonus points : I love nell *lennyface* + 0.4 and there are a lot of my fetish +0.3
Overall : 10/10 would fap again xD
keep up the good work mate

An actually engaging story in a porn visual novel. Most vns on here the story is rather bland or generic. To me this is one of the best visual novels on here and should be on the front page of trending games. Loads of content to. The animations and renders could be a bit better though.

The game is great. The stroy is great, characters are likeable and make you care about them, the renders are beautiful, and it's also really funny - i love Belle <3. Keep up the amazing work @Belle, i wish i wasn't broken so that i could support your work (and many others whose work i admire) on patreon - hopefully i'll be able to amend that soon.
Leaving the review is the very least i could do to support you and your game ^_^

Picked up this game again after a year or so, back then when I played it, I felt it had great potential but was poorly executed. Sadly, coming back after a year things have not changed much. That is not to say this game doesnt have good moments. That's why a lot of people give this 5 stars (highly overrated imho) whilst others give it 1 to 2 stars.

As I said this game has some great elements in it, especially if you're a fan of the genre. It's a fantasy with magic, pixy's, fey, knights, queen/princess ... in a sort of medieval time/place, character looks and interactions are represented in this; and usually done well (except for speech but who wants to read old english anyway?). There's lots of variety with a big cast and the dev provides lore for each indiviual as well as their clan and/or race.

Best part about this game (by far) is Belle or to be more precise the banter/interactions between Belle and the MC. Also, lets be honest, the sex scenes between MC, Belle, Queen Fey, Erato (because they are these mythical beings) I very much enjoyed! Although, a lot of the times these scenes felt forced. Queen Fey had a vision about having sex with the MC (oversimplified but boils down to this) so the Queen has sex with the MC. Erato needs seed of a strong man or whatever for her bush, I mean forest to remain healthy (I think it was something along those lines), anyway again feels forced. Many other examples like this! Granted, in old times the act of sex/love/marriage were often done through arrangements, so you can defend this approach by the dev.


The bad:
You cannot play this game without a walkthrough or without having massive amounts of time and willingness to try everything out; but I sincerely doubt you'll have fun while doing so. Needing a walkthrough might not be a huge issue for everyone, but it is to me and should be for the dev. Because this means: the game, the story, the characters, all of it, is disconnected; and that in turn ruins immersion. -1

You have certain goals you need to reach but no knowledge (or sometimes options) on how to reach it. Hint system (or some quest tracker) would be extremely helpful. -1

Mindcontrol, not original. It tries to be more in depth by finding clues, interrogating people (often your love interests) and once you find out their secrets, you gain massive control over them. Still, having to conquer your love interest by basically mindcontrol, is not very satisfactory, even done by this longwinded approach. It's no substitution for actual build up and/or character progression. -1

Molesting people in their sleep..? Ugh.. Do not understand the appeal, put your finger in ass/vag, push, pull...? Who has fun with this? Kinda wished Samarra wouldve done something to the MC when she caught him but no the story explains this away like its nothing. Molesting people helps you become more stealthy, at least I think it does. Actually I'm not even sure what purpose it serves except making you a rapist. Off course this a game so take it with a grain of salt some might think. That being said even in a game, I don't want to be a rapist or worse, enjoy being one (so why put it in at all)??!!! -1

Sandbox, badly executed but manageable, I won't deduct points for that, could be improved upon however.

As such I'd rate this as 6/10 or just above average, for actually having moments of sheer brilliance, this game falls short on what it tries to deliver. Do not recommend unless you're a fan of the genre or you're bored and got nothing else to do.

Tortuous story, perfect rendering, stable update.
I think the game is no longer a visual novel. The game is not an RPG, but it is more like an RPG. The sense of participation is getting stronger and stronger.
I don't think adult games should all be pornographic pictures. Attractive stories are the foundation of a great book.
Should MC Return to Human Society? Or into the realm of elves? Or do you want to be a messenger of peace for two parallel worlds? We will wait and see.

As of v0.26
So, this game...
Well, it's great. Like, really great. Should I say more? Well, I might as well, now that I have slept on it.

Graphics:
They are good. Nothing obviously broken. I didn't really like the combat choreography, but that's just me.
There are animations for those who wonder and care (I don't). They are decent.

Characters:

The Main Character
He is a looser. And I mean a total looser. I really didn't like him at the start of the game, but he grows and grows a lot. Not always in a good way (he is going around messing with the minds of people) but he is not evil for the evilz sake. He has his good qualities (or at least you have enough control over him to nurture them) - he is loyal, brave, surprisingly caring and smart and his main problem was always that he is lazy. And the game makes it painfully obvious this is what the problem was.

As a whole he is a good character and is not as bad of a person... if you can look past the mind control part of the story. I know a lot of people won't be able to, but as far as MCs in adult games go - he is surprisingly nice. I liked him (you can bring the torches now).

But to like the character you must let him grow. At the start he is kind of the bog standard creep MC. And he gets pushed around a lot. But as he gets stronger he turns the tables, so don't despair.

The rest of the cast:
The cast is pretty big and most of them work well. You won't be meeting the same girl over and over - each one is different and a surprisingly well-rounded character. They are doing their own shit... until you mess with them and even after that they are not your puppets. I won't go in to detail for all, but I like most of them (like being defined as - they are well-written characters, I still wanna punch the royal envoy in the face).

Special note about your constant companion - at first I thought her annoying as hell, but as the story developed she grew on me. Half of the fun in the game is the constant banter between the two of you.

Another really good point for the game IMO is that it treats sexual orientation pretty decently. You can't just wave your hand and make a lesbian hungry for cock. Yes it's probably still quicker than realistic, but considering the very strict limitations in time the game gives you... yeah, it is really well approached topic.

Story.
Honestly... while engaging and well-written, the story is nothing stellar. Almost all "twists" are obvious. Some of them from a very early point in the game (If you don't know who the Lady in the Lake is - you are pretty blind )
This is strangely not exactly a criticism of the story. It doesn't try to be more than it is and knowing where and when to stop is one of the hardest things about writing. I can't stress this enough.

Gameplay.
It's probably my main problem with the game. I get the idea, but I do have several problems with it, that I can't really ignore.
New Game Plus - I'm not certain it's a good idea in an adult game. I'm really not.Especially with such an otherwise simple system.
Training - while I like the idea of the different training sessions, I really don't like there is only one way to improve. There are no shortcuts, no alternative routes. Bravery training is the worst in that respect alongside Pathfinding.
Spell-learning - with the game having such a great secrets and investigation sub-systems in it, I would have really liked to see them involved in learning spells.
That said, none of those things is bad per se. It's my personal preference so... take it as you will.

Conclusion:
It's a very promising game with more than enough content and I'm not certain we have seen even half of it. Play it. You probably won't regret it.
