🌟 Synopsis
When I came to my senses, I was in a medieval-European-style other world.
And what’s more, I had been reincarnated as the story’s “villainess"!
To slip past the doom flags coming at me one after another, I have to keep choosing the right answer out of two options.
One single mistake means instant exile! Or execution!? (※No, it doesn’t actually come to that.)
Will I be able to reach a happy ending in this unreasonable world…?
💀 In the Middle Ages, “Death" Is Far Too Cheap
※Burning at the stake and the guillotine are just basic medieval manners, right?
I realized it right after starting the game.
In this world, life is far too cheap!!
On trivial choices like “Greet them? Ignore them?", you suddenly get sent to the guillotine, or poisoned.
Well, okay, not quite that bad — but let your guard down and they’ll get you!
Even with a medieval setting, the sheer variety of executions and murders made me shiver.
“Is being a villainess always this hard mode!?" — I lost count of how many times I thought that… 😭
🔢 I Thought There Were “18 Questions in Total"…?
Looking at the title screen, I thought, “18 stages in total? This will be over in no time."
I was naive. Far too naive.
The truth: 4 questions per stage × 18 stages = 72 questions in total!!
"It never ends!! It just never ends!!"
Unreasonable binary choices came at me one after another, and my brain was about to burst.
But it moves at a good tempo (and you die a lot), so before I knew it, I was completely absorbed (lol).
😡 An Onslaught of Unreasonable Choices
There were plenty of unreasonable questions where I wanted to say, “Wait, wouldn’t either of these be right?"
I’d think it through logically, pick this one… and it would turn out to be wrong.
(On the “learn swordsmanship or learn magic" choice — how is picking magic the wrong answer!? There’s way too little information, it’s just too unreasonable!)
I could feel the developer’s strong will to make the player despair…
（Though between you and me, I kind of enjoyed collecting the wrong answers 🤫）
👸 The Angel Who Descended at the End (The True Heroine)
After countless deaths, I finally reached the final season.
And waiting for me there was…
The “true heroine" herself!!
She never showed up in the other two seasons, you know.
And this true heroine was quite the tricky character, too.
This time, she was in a hostile pattern.
She was so cute, I wanted to become friends with her, though…
💬 Riri’s Impressions
It was a short game, but surprisingly rich and fun!
At first I underestimated it — “this’ll be over in no time" — but 72 fateful choices (plus one more for every failure) were far more thrilling than I expected.
If I really were reincarnated as a villainess… yeah, I’m confident I’d be exiting the world almost immediately (lol).
I got to experience firsthand just how hard it is to survive in an unreasonable world!
But if I do get reincarnated, I’d like a more peaceful world, please.
