    It's a good game that's written well and with lots of content. The English is better than most games by a lot. The biggest issue which almost made it a 3/5 for me is that if you're looking for a hot game mostly, this isn't it. There are a few sexual scenes, but it's 5% sexual and 95% story. At a point after having played it for hours I started feeling a little bored and went from reading to skimming some of the parts, and I wondered why I was even playing for a moment, since I'm mostly just reading a fantasy story.

    For a porn game, the story is much better than average, but in the long streches where its not a porn game at all, its a just a mildly interesting story.

    I get that its gotta be hard to decide when to put in the sexual stuff while still keeping it believable and not make it ridiculous or forced, and the parts that are meant to be hot are actually hot, but its always very light and just teasing.

    So Ill say, only play this game if you really like to read story and dont care much about the "hotness". There are some sexy parts, but compared to other games on this site, this one is very careful to not be "vulgar". Its more like a fantasy story with some sexiness here and there, a softcore.

    Im still giving it a 4/5 though, because its still well made and written and coded, the story is mostly interesting, the characters are very good and have a lot of personality. The hottest characters for me have been Colette and the older woman at the banquet who sends you a "gift". The queen is also kinda sexy so far.

    The game has potential to be a 5/5, the dev just needs to not be scared of putting the porn in porn game.

    While some tf games are iterating and innovating on gameplay mechanics pushing the boundaries on how html can hold your attention, this game takes the opposite approach and pursues perfection in its narrative direction regardless of the branching paths.

    Not only does it do this, but it does it all without needlessly demeaning the female form. If you choose to depraved things the writer makes it clear that the onus is on the player or outside pressure and not on the body, making it all the better when you do decide to do something depraved. But if humiliation isn't your thing that's cool too, because when I say that the game pursues narrative perfection in all paths I meant it.

    The style in this game is very clearly anime inspired, but it's not annoying in even the slightest, and might disappear with the slightest scrutiny. Plus I've never had this much trouble deciding best girl in an anime. More than that it touts itself as a fun loving adventureous novel with some genuinely harrowing moments of distress. Do yourself a favor and don't expect to play the game with only your dick in your hand, read the damn game and trust that it will get there. though I will say that it could use some retouching in the later chapters, and that it's a little goofy for a writer to suck his own dick by saying his own interpretations of the transition are "not at all stereotypical"

    When this game is finished I have complete confidence it will be the best TF game ever made. I can only hope that it gets finished within the next 6 years. I hope that the creator finds it to be a suitable way out so they never have to have a day job again. In a month I have a new job and I'll be donating also. I have to, in order to believe that one day I can make it out too.

    10/10
    I'm starving for more.

    This has incredible writing and story development, plus an original concept and just the right amount of game mechanics. Really good stuff all around, props to the developer. I can't wait to see where this one goes.

    Wonderful and tantalizing story. I love the options between the storylines so far and the consequences your choices seem to lead to. My only complaint is that it always leaves me wet without enough content yet to let me finish.

    One of the best HTML CYOA on the site. The Princess Trap is an excellent mix of humor, story, and, naturally, smut. However, it truly makes you care about the story, the choices, and the protagonist. This is something you actually want to read.

    Very good game, surpassed my expectations for a html game. Intriguing storyline and likeable characters. I was able to get into the story very easily. The choices you make do have visible effects and the game is heavily story-focused, without the usual grindy aspects. Would recommend, can't wait for updates!

    "I play this for the plot, I swear!" is something hard to belive in, but in this case it's true.
    As the author described it, it's a slow burn. You spend more time preparing to not get cought and socialazing with characters, which makes every little tease hit so much harder. And the choices you make on your way will have consequences hours after you make them.
    The writing is great. The language is rich, descriptions always hit the right strings, all characters have their way of talking. It's like reading a interactive book.

    I'll keep it short; one of the best stories I've ever seen. Really fun and excellent story branching, dev is clearly rich of ideas and creates plenty of toe-curling choices for you to choose from. The use of language is also among the best out there.

    Surprisingly tightened the plot. There are not many images, but they are quite cute. A lot of text, but I think someone might not like this, but it doesn't bother me. There are quite a lot of ramifications of the plot, although not globally, but still. I look forward to continuing!

    Had a huge and pleasant surprise with this game, it's all worth the while. Fisrt of all, loved that almost anything you do, eventually matters sooner or later, this had me SO invested in the story and characters, and the developer really seems to be putting a lot of effort into it, since there are a gooood amounth of paths you could be taking, which is really admirable for a first release. Also, already hopped into the next version test build and let me say, it just keeps going. As it seems, definitely a game with a lot of potential (already being exploited) to keep an eye and support on. Totally worth the while, rlly excellent from my playtrough, all i can add is

    let him cook

    one thing i've gotta say as the other reviews mention, more images and a bit of more work into the ui would make this game even greater, and yeah, theres a lot of text, but it isn't at all a "bad thing" in my opinion, it just leads to your imagination to play by itself, like a really good novel; but yeah, more pictures would definitely make it more enjoyable.

    Overall excellent game

    One of the most stunning mic drop first releases I've ever seen. The sheer amount of content dropped in .01 dwarfs many other complete games. It's well written, has branching paths, things you do matter to the options you can pick later, this game and this developer are definitely ones to watch! If they keep this up, they're gonna be HUGE.

    Seems pretty good at the moment definitely at a very early stage at the moment but has an interesting premise and I like some of the mechanics.
    Story wise wile the origin of your character doesn't affect the story it's a good roleplay way as to how you want your character to continue on. As mentioned before the story of you taking the princesses identity is interesting and that you have to manage activities in order to stay hidden is cool. It's a bit heavy on the reading side but I don't think that's a big problem.
    My only gripe is that it needs o few more pictures in order to identify the characters that are talking beside the colored texts.
    But overall a very solid game and I am eager to see what come in the future.

    It's early and not a ton of content yet, but plenty to get a feel for what's on offer and what's there is a very promising start. Competent writing, interesting plot, decently crafted characters. Very interested to see where this goes.

    For version 0.1.1 the games goes up to Day 4. There is quite a bit of content and engaging storytelling. There also looks to be different routes you can take and as each day passes the Queen will send soldiers to deliver a message judging your appearance and how well you do as a princess, which has potential to lead to soft lock endings with the Queen finding out but hopefully the story expands on the mistakes and certain routes. There isn't much to say about the game besides that it has a lot of potential.

    I think the game is nice, a bit rough but nice.

    More picture sure would be nice (ai arts maybe) but this is not a big deal.

    Only thing I don't like is "Psycho Colette" the childhood "friend" who's is completely over the top...

    But overall the game is nice and there multiple way to play it so you can role play different type of character.
