I love this! I really enjoyed this retelling of a classic story. The art really suited the dark atmosphere and every line reminded me of straw. I quickly became immersed in the story and wanted to learn more about what would happen to the Miller's Daughter. It was good to see the theme of sexism touched upon in this dark tale. It made that era feel real and it made the Miller's Daughter's will to survive through stealing food feel heartbreaking.
There's a few of the longer lines that don't fit inside the text box. And I did take a few tries before realizing I was supposed to use the arrow keys to play the minigame (I was swiping on my touchpad at first).
However, I enjoyed playing through this game and was determined to play past the bad endings so I could help the Miller's Daughter with her fate. Good job! :D

<3 You humble us with your amazing and thoughtful review. Me personally, this was such a nice surprise to find. I'm very glad the themes and intent of the game reached you, I couldn't ask for more. And of course I'm glad you got to find the miller's daughter 's happy ending.
We are still working to make the game better in everyway. An update is coming between tonight and tomorrow. Thank you again for your words and time. And I hope we see each other again, once upon a time!
