Littlewitch Romanesque: Editio Regia Reviews

i can't defend it for sexualizing kids. And no being against sexualizing of kids is not being woke <3 I bought it years ago like another review here says since i also wanted something similar to Princess Maker, and though there is definitely some questionable content in Princess Maker i feel like this one is even more aimed at males who enjoys this then the type of gamer who likes the child raising aspect and want to shape the kids future and see the outcome of their decisions. I feel like Princess Maker though special it definitely attracted an audience that didn't buy it for the sexualization but more for the path you can take with your kid. This one however have very in your face sexualized cgs and dialogue. I feel like a groomer playing this. It also is just not as fun either. The gameplay grow stale fast and you have two witches you care for, and though usually the more the merrier i think it would have been better if we just focused on one. It also has a lot of other female characters who also feel uncomfy sexualized which is in your face. I read that it also has an adult patch, which is worrying in itself blergh. Looking back i can't believe i bought it since the trailer sort of gives it all away, but i guess back then i was just so desperate to play more child- raising games like Princess Maker that i ignored all dubious content and just thought to myself typical Japan when i should have been more grossed out. Anyway, fast-forward we are now in 2025 and i'm grossed out realizing i bought this game. Thankfully we now we have a lot of other child-raising games that aren't focused on sexualizing like: Volcano Princess Growing Up My Child Lebensborn Chinese Parents And my personal favorite: I was a Teenage Exocolonist

Bought because WITCHES! Stayed for the fun dice and spells and the compelling story.
