*SPOILERS* I love playing games like this but usually I connect with a love interest before choosing a route, so I end up only doing that love interest route and not continuing to do the others. BUT THIS GAME IS ONE OF THE FIRST. Something about the setup of each route made me NEED to play all of them and get everyone's True Love End. I did Amesbury's route first and he is still my favorite love interest. I love that he shared the same views as my MC and he was so teasing and fun. The first robbery scene had me wheezing and waiting for MC to realize that it's Amesbury. I love that even though he is fun he still has those uncertain moments that's only seen by MC, it just makes it more special. And LOVE that I got to slap Montfort! I did Blake's route next, and I think his was my least favorite but that doesn't mean it's bad at all! I did enjoy his route and it was a very romantic and touching to play through. I like that the route has a more common person love interest instead of the others who are born into society it gives a depth to his character and can explain his troubles. Though my god did I want to SLAP THE HAIR OFF LORD HUNTINGTON and sometimes Blake himself! The ending is sweet and intense, but I have to wonder what happens after? Like does Blake stay in the military even after he punched and threaten a very prominent lord? The last route (which I had to do twice but I blame my tired brain since I pulled an all-nighter to finish the routes) Stanton's is misunderstood guy meeting no f*cks given woman and I love it! The MC got to be strong and stubborn as hell for his true love end and honestly, it's how I would act irl. His route was intense at times and really had me doubting that he was a good guy for a bit. But such a sweet end and makes you really feel in the moment. The side/not love interest characters are so well flushed out! ARABELLA AND FOXELY!!! I was so sad that they didn't get their love story in Stanton's but I was happy to see more of Miss Witter and get to be absolute best friends with her! Not to mention Mabel, Montfort, and even Lord Huntington are very great characters for their role and your feel how the writer wants you to feel about these people. Overall AMAZING story and characters and I loved playing this and might even play it again to relive Amesbury's route
I'm not easily entertained to the point that I would go through all of the routes in a game... But this one had me hooked from the start and, boy am I glad to have done all of the routes! Obviously, Amesbury's route is a personal favourite. And how could it NOT be after a sentence like this: "I asked for a kiss, not a formality." Some really nice writing, dialogue and choices overall.
This one is for fans of regency and period dramas for sure. (All possible historical inaccuracies aside, of course.)
I'd also have to agree with most comments down below, in the sense that I would also like an Arabella or Montfort route heh

Lord Huntington is so annoying in Captain Blake's route, though I really wish there's a route for that motherfucker.
loved this!! just played the lord stanton ending, and I'm looking forward to playing the others :)
I only played with the Lord Stanton ending, but it was so sweet and a lovely story. But overall the game was great.
Lord Stanton!! *hearts* This was so fun, thanks for the great game! :)
