Game Overview
The Liar Princess and the Blind Prince tells a story of two solitary figures united by an unexpected event. A lone wolf’s captivating song in the forest draws a curious prince, who, upon discovering the wolf, is accidentally blinded. This incident sets them on a quest to restore the prince’s vision, a journey where every boon comes with a cost.
Players assume the role of the wolf, who takes on a princess disguise to lead the blind prince through a treacherous forest. Their goal is to find a witch rumored to possess the power to heal his sight. The forest is fraught with dangerous creatures and cunning traps, all posing a threat to the prince’s safety.
To navigate these perils, players must strategically switch between the wolf’s powerful form to defeat enemies and the princess’s gentle guidance to protect the vulnerable prince, striving for a storybook conclusion.
