Who Murdered My Empress?
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
You play as Mai, a strong-willed and analytical police officer from the present day. Injured during a case, you awaken in the year 1845, but not as yourself; you are now the infamously lustful Empress who rules the country.
Armed with the knowledge you learned from history books, you are determined to unearth the truth behind your arrival here and do your best to survive by avoiding mutiny and war.
Here, your life intertwines with Vu Huyen, a beautiful man with a mysterious heart. You must interact with him and your other Consort husbands while keeping your identity a secret. They all seem to harbor their own hidden motives, making your mission that much more challenging.
Why has this happened? Why are you here? And why does your heart beat against all logic?
You need to make the right choices to gain more useful information and avoid your bad endings.

This game was AMAZING. It was so beautifully written and painfully tragic. I cried several times playing this. Also the second part of the game was totally unexpected, but I absolutely loved learning more about the story.
Will there be a DLC? Because I loved Vu Huyen, but Thanh Tung really had me swerving lanes lol. Also him in Part 2, I WILL PAY YOU EVERYTHING FOR MORE OF THAT. And maybe some priest content, if you're feeling generous lol. But even if there is no additional content, thank you so much for giving us such a wonderful game, I enjoyed it so much!
I'm happy you enjoyed the game! We're still planning for the DLC but yes, there will be romancable options for some characters! :)
