And long live the queen is a cheapp death simulator. Unless you've previously played or using a walkthrough you cannot get an ending you want because it throws you curve balls that you cannot possibly prepare for unless you cheated.
No warnings for any kind of event. It just happens and you pray you got the right skills up to deal with it.
If you want something of a similar vein (but actually good) play the stanley parable.
Yeah, this is partially true. But that's the design - you play once and based of your desicions and the tests you failed you can either change your decisions or prepare. But yeah, I'll probably use sort-of walkthrough or at least a cheat sheet with the most important events written down.
It is highly dissapointing that some events have literally no effects in the plot regardless you pass the test or not. And some skills are really useless or worse - extremely important but they must be maxed out to pass just one test during whole run.
Is Stanley Parable similar to Long Live the Queen? I wouldn't say so, in any way. I consider Stanley Parable more as a "walking simulator" kind of game and Long Live the Queen as visual novel with some cool progression elements (or some kind of visual novel - rpg mix). Thanks for the recommendation nonetheless, I've played some Stanley Parable a while ago.
