Black Tabby Games has announced that their psychological horror visual novel title Slay The Princess has earned a cool 100,000 copies sold since its launch back in October, as well as achieving a 91 on Metacritic with the Metacritic Must Play badge. To celebrate the milestone, the developer has released a new accolades trailer, which just so happens to feature a quote from Aaron’s review of Slay The Princess.
Per the press release, Slay the Princess becomes one of only a few visual novels to reach the 100,000 sales mark.
“It’s been absolutely incredible to see such a positive reception from fans, critics, creators, and everyone,” says Tony Howard-Arias, Lead Writer at Black Tabby Games. “People making time to not just play our game but to replay it, share their experiences, create art, and write fan fiction in a world where so many games demand your attention has been a real honor.”
Slay The Princess is now available on PC via Steam for $17.99, alongside a $9.99 Supporter’s Pack containing the OST. And if you’re keen on more of Black Tabby Games’ titles, there’s also a bundled discount available with their Early Access title, Scarlet Hollow.
In Slay The Princess, you find yourself in the middle of a densely-populated forest, with the trees parting only for you to make way to a small hill adorned by a lone cabin. The Narrator asks you the simple eponymous instruction: enter the cabin and slay the princess. If you don’t, the world ends. At least, that’s what you’re told.
