Fatal Hearts Title Screen

Today’s Game Giveaway of the day is definitely worth a look – it’s Fatal Hearts, an edgy adventure game from Hanako Games, the makers of Cute Knight. For the next seven hours or so, it’s free.

Paul Eres (who recommended the game on the forums, thanks!) points to this description of the game by the author, which should give you some idea of what you’re in for:

It’s an adventure game that looks at first like it’s for 11 year old girls but is really about (and these are the developer’s words from the GMC thread): “(possible controversial elements – underage romance, underage sex (implied), same-sex romance, occultism, nazis (implied), violence (implied), blood (sometimes shown), suicide, ritual sacrifice, grisly murder committed by player, not being clear about what’s good and what’s evil… This is NOT an E-rated game! )”

Here’s the link to the GGotD page.

    I’m still in the middle of this right now, and it’s pretty good so far. Long, though.

  • Xotes

    I’m looking foward to playin’ this! I really love high-speed…

  • Carter

    Does it have opposite-sex romance? I can’t play games with opposite-sex romance.

  • Lolfo

    Sounds like a half-assed “interactive” novel leaking with drama and emotional bullshit, from what I’ve read about it so far. Can anyone who is into this type of thing play it and summarize it/lay out the highlights?

  • Lolfo

    @Carter: What’s the matter, too *natural* for you?

  • Xotes

    Aw, crap. Cue the flaming any second now…

    Lolfo, I hope you’re joking; Carter clearly was.

    @Xotes: Hey, I have nothing against a guy being picky about their lolicon, I’m just curious as to why that’s the case.

    And all the guys in the game look like women, if that helps you at all.

    And girls seem to like them that way.

    In fact, some fans requested that if I do this again, I make the boys *more* girly. :)

    Anyway, yes, if the idea of reading a book full of Teen Angst and vampires bores you to tears rather than making you starry-eyed, this is probably not your game.

    Any game where you can control the fate of delicious cake is a game I want to play.

    Wow boring.

  • Hendro

    Darn, I always miss nice givaways!

    Damn, missed it!

  • Bob Runcle

    I see the males resemblance to females, but the individual on the title-screen is female, right?

  • Disraptor

    Right? RIGHT?

    Because I just masturbated over that girl and if it’s a boy I’m going to go apeshit.

  • Paul Eres

    I’ve come to learn that there’s perhaps an unbridgeable gulf between the different reasons people play games, but I wish at least people would respect those with different tastes more than they do. ;_;

    You know, I got a couple of endings. Then the two lead girls decided to take off their clothes….

    I realized I wouldn’t find a better ending and stopped right there.

    @limousinedriver: You lie.
