Reigns: Her Majesty

A great sequel to Reigns!

Lost all my progress after the latest update :( hope you can restore it.

Please remove this: Nice answer! Your results indicate that your Feminist Goddess Soul is HARRY POTTER.

I love the level of difficulty in this game; is not so hard that I can’t understand it, it’s just difficult enough to keep me consistently engaged. So fun.

This game is pretty nice but it gets repetitive after a while. The same goal, the same objects.

Tries to do too much and adds an element of cringe to the dialogue. Attempts to be intimate with the player and create this big story, but missed the mark on what made Reigns special. Reigns: Her Majesty is a fluffed slapstick with choices that never seem to feel neutral. From the beginning it feels as though you are forced to pick a side and any choice against what has already been given as the main story line feels immoral.

As someone who has played the original game many times over, this sequel is a complete dumpster fire. The consequences of your actions are mostly unpredictable and are frequently uniformly beneficial or harmful, whereas in the original, decisions are almost always tradeoffs between the different factions. Additionally, the writing is often amateurish in both the prompts and the queen’s responses, which resemble those of a stereotyped teenage girl rather than royalty. When I looked it up, it turns out that Reigns: Her Majesty was actually written by Leigh Alexander, a notorious radical feminist with no previous experience working on video games. Beyond the quality of the writing, this also shows up in the bias of the decisions. Whereas the church was just one of four factions in the original game, with both positive and negative aspects, here they are uniformly portrayed in a negative light and oppose decisions supported by all the other factions, including decisions they should by all reason support.

I had played the original reigns, using the Apple Arcade version. I decided to get this one after completing an ending many, many times. This, so far, pushes all the right buttons. Very different, yet similar. New characters, better romance, interesting plot, and even a few callbacks. The mechanical owl makes me want to give this game six stars

100 stars

Always so fun and never disappointed
