With the release of this chapter, as a reminder for all the major changes:
Rebalanced plot-related reputation points: replaying starting from Chapter Five is highlyadvised. You risk breaking certain plot-related scenes in the future otherwise.
With the Chapter Eight update the Character Codex will show all the LI names from the moment you unlock it at the start of Chapter One, so if you want a specific gender combination with a bi Crown you won’t have to replay as much of the game every time
New chapter title headers will be added, Chapters 1 - 4 now have titles as well!
New background color has been implemented; it’s not a dark mode, but I hope it’ll make the screen a bit easier on the eyes!
Adjusted the image size of the Arsurian Calendar, it should be larger and higher quality now
The portraits of the Love Interests have been added to the codex and will now be visible once you meet them in the game
Added the option to change your Crown’s pronouns at any point in the story from the Character Traits passage. Changing it won’t be addressed in the story itself (coding a scene for it would be too difficult, timing wise) but the option is there now!
Specific to Chapter Eight:
New codex entries, lore and relationship stats!
The map of Arsur will be unlocked in this chapter!
The opportunity to solidfy friendships with the cast
A bit of the mystery around the Crown’s parents is revealed
A lot of lore and history about the founding of Arsur and its first Crown
Thank you for all your patience and support, I hope you enjoy the new chapter with the coming of spring
For those that are unfamiliar with the game
A Tale of Crowns is a high fantasy love story, told in the form of a text-based interactive novel with choice mechanics. The setting is inspired by Kurdish culture as well as other historical settings in the Middle East such as Ancient Persia, but it also draws heavily from other cultures and countries in the region.
Your character is native to Arsur, a vast empire overseen by a single ruler known as the Crown. Unlike traditional monarchies, however, the title is not inherited through blood. Whenever the Crown dies, their famed golden eyes pass on to the one chosen by the Spirits of this world to be the new Crown. In this story, your MC takes on that role.
There are four different love interests to choose from, whose genders will be customized to suit the preferences of your Crown. You can find more info about them on the blog page!
Also note that this current version of the game is safe for those 16 years and older.

As a star gladiator in Coritan City, you have the power to sway public opinion as nobody else does. The city is divided, ruled by the glittering Illustrious who use their wealth and status to maintain their power over the struggling masses. A lucky few have access to magic as well: it can be used to heal, but it can also be used as a weapon, or to reinforce the bars of prisons.
Below them, rumors of revolution simmer - and nowhere more strongly than among the gladiators. Former soldiers, political prisoners, and prisoners of war now bide their time, plotting to rise up.
In this treacherous web of alliances that you must navigate, the one certainty is your own heart. Will you find love with a gentle healer, haunted by a tragic past? A wealthy patron who could promise you a life of luxury? Or even one of your fellow gladiators, whose muscles and martial skill you admire through every battle: a fervent ex-revolutionary now condemned to the same servitude as you, or a bold daring warrior who seeks fame and glory.
Victory can mean a better life for you and your beloved - but what will you do if you find yourself on the opposite side of a gladiatorial match from the one you love? Or on the opposite side of a revolution?
Play as male, female, or non-binary; trans or cis; gay, straight, bi, demisexual, asexual, or aromantic.
Romance a gentle healer; a glory-hound gladiator; a wealthy patron; or an ex-revolutionary.
Choose your weapon: fight with sword, mace, bow, daggers, or bladed gauntlet.
Negotiate your way through relationships with your superiors, and clash with a bitter rival.
Win battles with honor, or scheme and cheat to take down your enemies.
Incite a riot - or even a revolution!

You are a Séraphinical.
A being with long wings, able to fly high up in the sky, a being blessed with immortality,andfreedom. Thehumans admired your species from afar, until it became jealousy.
You witnessed it all. Your family was taken away from you, your friends, your closest ones, everyone, but the worst of all? Your freedom. The freedom your species fought the gods to gain, the many storms you have endured, only to disappear into dust, bloody dust.
You fought back, but despite everything you were captured, left alive for some shady scientific experiments. A question kept pondering into your mind, why were you left alive? You? The black sheep of your family? It remains unknown to you.
Many years have passed, they called you XVIII, your name ripped away from you. You are not just a toy, you’re an invaluable asset to them, you kill people you are tasked to kill. An ‘assassin’, you kill to live.
Will you be a puppet to the end? Or will you finally cut the strings that have been holding you down for all those years? Or perhaps… you will find someone that will hold dear for you?

You thought you knew your job well before this assignment. You thought you had things under control. When the folder found your hands, you went where the dog whistle pointed you – Warden, a sleepy town in the Appalachians. A few missing townies, a few urban legends. They’re nothing to you, your agency’s best hunting hound.
But when your arrival coincides with the awakening of an ancient evil, you realize you’ve bitten off more than you can chew. You’ll need allies, and you’ll need your wits. But what will you do if you lose both?
Greenwarden: Book One is an in-development, word-based interactive horror game set in the Appalachian wilderness. Play as the Tracker, one of the best of the best, and make friends (or enemies), uncover the truth behind the disappearances of Warden, West Virginia, and try not to lose your mind.
Rated 16+ for crude language, violence, and horror.
