As all the other commenters have echoed, this game is amazing!! The fact that it is free is an even greater surprise! Please, if you enjoyed this game, please tip the creators! This was an amazing well-written story and beautifully crafted. It's easily worth the $20+ you would normally pay for a full visual novel game.

This game is just beautifully crafted. I can't believe it's free for its quality. Honestly, this is one of the best visual novel-types I've ever encountered, even rivalling ones from large companies. The story's amazing, the characters amusing and the protagonist just unique. It's a fresh perspective. I hope I'll see more like this in the future! <3

P.S. If dating sims are gonna be your forte, I commend you for the clever name.

After 3 days I finished your game, I am still astonished that you released it for free but am very glad you did or I would have missed out on it.

I have always been drawn to fairy tales and fables and have played MANY games based on them, when I first heard of this game while you were still working on it I said to myself "This is bound to be one of my most favorite games." I still can't get over how much fun I had and it is definitely in my top 3 VNs (No joke, you are up there with Amnesia:Memories).

Waltz's route is my absolute favorite and is closely followed by Karma's and then Rumpel's. I'll be honest, I hated Karma and Delora at first but grew to like them and I felt at one point Delora became a second mother to my character (Which really had me crying at some key points)

I also have to say that I am VERY glad that thought was put into the routes to actually make the outcomes and story arcs different, I have played too many games where there are barely any differences in whose route you chose and it becomes a cookie cutter type game where the same thing happens over and over.

I can't believe I didn't even mention the graphics or music yet, so amazing! Not many free games put so much effort into making a product so beautiful, THANK YOU!

First when i saw this I was like "it can't be that good, but I'll play the DEMO anyway."

Then I was like "Hold on there, it's not good, it's AMAZING!"

Really cool game, loved all the characters and the drama! It was completely mind blowing and amazing. Now this game is even more amazing but... wow ... you guys just blew me away with this...

I'm about to play the game! Super excited!

I don't have words. I just began this game today and I've been playing it nonstop for the past three hours. It is absolutely brilliant. The characters are so wonderful and unique and the artwork is beautiful and I just. wow. (spoilers//) I've just played both of Klaude's routes and wow. They are stunning. This game is so wonderful I don't even have words. I'm quite honestly speechless. Thank you so much for putting so much time and effort to create a masterpiece like this. It's incredibly engaging and entertaining. It's positively brilliant, as are the characters. I'm really eager to continue and eventually unlock Waltz's route! (He and Fritz were the first two I really wanted to play, haha!) Seeing MC's character development was really nice, because I really connected with a lot of her feelings and how she isolated herself. Character development for everyone was huge, and I adored seeing them become better versions of themselves. I'm also in love with the fact that the chapter titles change depending on the choices you make. The change from The Beauty and The Sinner to The Beauty and The Beast took my breath away. Thank you so much for making such a brilliant game and making it free. I'm so glad I stumbled upon this, because it's one of the best games I've played.

I've just finished Waltz's route and I am positively adore him. His route was by far my favorite so far; I felt his gave the most closure and overall feeling of contentment I am always been searching for when I play these games. It was so lovely, and he is my favorite love interest. His story has so much depth and his relationship to MC is my favorite. (spoilers//) I was always so enamored by how kindly he spoke to the princess, regardless of how cold she was, and now I know why. The best-friend-turned-lover trope is one of my favorites. There is a beautiful unspoken understanding between the two of them that makes them my favorite pair of CP. Thank you so much for such a brilliant, fascinating, and well-developed game! I'm repeating myself quite a bit, but I really am in awe of CP. I must add that the music was stunning, as was the art and the facial expressions. It was so marvelously high quality and came together incredibly. Everyone had such a unique plot line, and it really suited each of their personalities. 10/10 Would recommend :)

This game was amazing with a capital A! The plot is well thought out, creative and the storyline is engaging. I love character development and this game had so much of that and it was all very well paced.

The backgrounds were so intricate and well thought out, such as that painting in the dining room (Which I realised after a long time was the balcony scene in Romeo and Juliet. Right?), the toy shop which had a stuffed bear a girl wanted in Waltz's route, etc. I know this is a minor detail but sometimes the clock in the Marchen shows a weird time like during Rod's route when he takes Lucette to the Marchen after she stood up for Queen Ophelia.. I understand you guys can't redraw the backgrounds over and over again and if this came across as rude.. But I just thought maybe you guys wanted to know. It's very unnoticeable and it doesn't ruin anything in the game. Sorry if I came across as rude.. Really...

I liked how every character had a back story of how they've become who they are currently in the game. It feels so realistic. The art was simply superb... I feel like any other game I've played have paled in comparison to this one.

The CGs helped to enhance the mood when playing the game and they really captured each characters' emotions really well to the point I could imagine exactly what was happening.

The music pieces were very fitting in the stories and gave the story more of a 'feel'. Played all the routes once without music at first, the with. I could tell the difference it my emotions straight away. I love the opening video and theme song. I was getting all emotional listening to/ watching it. I would download the song if I could. Also, is it okay if you tell me lyrics?

I played this game without the right choice indicator and got the bad ending for all of the routes at first. I have to say, I was really sad at all the bad endings but I liked them, especially the images. However, the ending that made me cry was actually Rod's Good Ending which felt much more like an open ending... Also, there was one flashback in Waltz's route (where he conjures up the lily) where I teared up. My emotions were going up and with the game as it progressed!

I got really attached to all the characters and (especially in Fritz's route) I felt so depressed when a character died... Varg... I get emotional easily and the game lingered in my mind for a whole day after I finished all the happy and bad ending for everyone (in two days! That just proves how much I love this game and amazingly well made this game was!!!). I've played all the routes again today and I have no doubt I'll keep replaying this game.

I'd just like to point out that I noticed the gallery for achievements that it says Rompel's 'Bad end' is a 'Happy End' (Instead of Rumpel's Bad End, it said Rumpel's Good end.) Someone probably pointed it out already and if someone did, I'm sorry for repeating it...

Karma is officially my ideal boyfriend and no doubt my favourite character with Rod and Waltz following close behind. I've come to like almost everyone character in the game, they were all relatable some way or another and each having their own story.

What Lucette has been through so much in her younger days and 'watching' her 'grow' along the way has made me feel attached to her... She deserves her happily ever after....

I'm sorry if this sounded like some essay (my friends sometimes call me an 'emotionless' writer), but I'm genuinely smitten with this game and I can't wait for any other games you guys make!!! I'm am eternally grateful that you guys set this as 'pay what you want', but to me, it was more like a high quality game worth at the very least $20.

Anyways, if you've bothered to read my boring comment, thank you so much and continue to make much more amazing games like this one!!! XD 11/10

Aw, I'm a little disappointed that Varg didn't get more love in his ending. I actually really liked him. He's mysterious, and kind of a jerk, but it's easy to see that there's more layers to him. All of the really bad things he's done has been on an order. He tried to kill the siblings because the queen told him to. He's like a puppet; being tugged around with (seemingly) no real choice. I mean, if he were to disobey, he'd probably get annihilated pretty easily. But anyway, left to his own devices, he's actually pretty chill and nice. Like, he stays with you for the entire week you were injured. And he stands up to the queen for you and your friends. Plus, it's obvious that he does really love your character. Hell, he even *SPOILER* erases himself in the end. I always saw it as there's pieces of Fritz in Varg, as there are pieces of Varg in Frtiz.

I dunno, I guess I just expected a part where we tried to turn Varg over to our side. The main character seems mostly 100% against him. It's like she didn't really try at all. Where's that power of love at, huh? It's proven that it works, with the "Aduiza" thing. Like, I'm sure Fritz and Varg could learn to get along eventually, right? Share their body or whatever? Just, I don't know, I just ended up liking Varg a lot. You spend most of your time with him anyway.

How would you feel about a spin-off ending for Fritz? Y'know, for Varg? Where they get along or- I imagined like a "split" thing, where like his hair has half white, half black, and he's like half Varg, half Fritz- or something. Or maybe just a spin-off ending for Varg? Though I guess you wouldn't go back and update it, haha.

Well let it be known, that I love Varg! Even if no one else does!

I do, too. Sadly, he sees himself as a part of Fritz come to live so I guess Varg would only be satisfied and 'whole' if Fritz choose to end the curse not by overthrowing him but by embracing that dark part of him. Can't say if that's possible but I like to imagine how it would have been. Varg has his own way to see things but I did think he was right with some things he said about Fritz. And I wasn't confident with the happy end, when Varg is nothing more but a whisper or a hint in Fritz' expression. He certainly deserved more than that. *sigh*

It's somehow sad but understandable why they choose to life the curse and ///SPOILER erase him, in order to give Fritz back to his princess. That's how a fairytale has to end. ;)

As for "Where's that power of love at, huh?" I guess our princess only loves Fritz and can't forgive Varg for his actions. He frees Fritz from the curse, or helps him fight against it. So the power of love is there, but it's only there to get rid of the 'bad side' of Fritz.

Strange thing is, it's much more complicated with Varg being so... special. In every other route, like the one from Rumpel, Varg isn't totally obedient - he is clever enough to act around direct orders he doesn't like. I like to belief that isn't Fritz showing through Varg, but Varg's very own personality and his way of showing his love for our character.

I guess I'll write a fanfic for him. Makes me sad, every time I think about how this arc ended. :,(

I just completed the entirety of the game (minus some bad ends) and let me just start off by saying congratulations. Honestly this is one of the best free dating sims I have played in a very long time. Thank you for creating fantastic and interesting characters, and creating a unique storyline that I actually could get behind. I felt myself becoming attached to almost every character, unlike other sims where I would like maybe 1 or 2 of the love interests. This game is definitely an accomplishment and I can't wait to see what you do in the future!

Hello! We did our best to make sure every route will be equally interesting so we're glad that you liked it. Thank you so much! :D

aaah, heck... i downloaded this game at 1pm, and now it's midnight and i've gotten all the good endings and i'm too scared to go for any of the bad, ahaha |D gosh... i wasn't expecting this to be such a great game..! all of my expectations were completely blown away. at first i was a bit hesitant to play such a harsh MC, but i've come to be really fond of her... what she's gone through and who she becomes, i'm really glad i got to be privy to that. i also ended up way more attached to the love interests than i thought i would...

there was a lot of depth to them that was really well constructed (waah, that sounds stiff...in terms of character building, i mean!), and i find myself sitting here, 20 minutes after finishing all the routes, with a somewhat melancholy ache tugging at my gut and an inner conflict of 'do i wallow in the aftermath of a good game or do i make fanart', ahaha-- even the side characters! i know it was stated in the description that the side characters had their own backstories, but like i said, this game really blew away all of my expectations. i think i'm still distraught over garlan...

i really appreciate all of your efforts that went into making this game, and thank you all for all of your hard work! even now, i'm still feeling that sad ache-- the one you get when you're invested in characters whose stories have come to an end.

thank you very, very much.

Hello! We're glad that we actually got you hooked with this game. Mission accomplished! ;)

We didn't want a typical MC and so we went for someone who will have character development.

Thank you so much for playing CP. :D

WALTZZZZZ!! I LOVE YOU!! 😍😍😍

I thought I had to say that before anything else, hehehe. You guys really never let me down! I really admire your artstyle, background, music, and... well, everything!! You guys even launched this for free. You have no idea how much that means to me.

First, I really love how you made Lucette's character. She really felt 'alive' since she has her own uptight and blunt attitude. Same goes for your heroes and supporting characters.

They each have their own story, making the world they live in more believable. I also liked to see more of your fairytale-based stories. You guys were so creative in making this game! I wonder how you guys come up with all those ideas. Hehehe.

My top 3 favorite routes were Waltz (obviously since I stated him above), Rod, and then Karma!! I would have loved to place Fritz in second, but there were too many deaths in his route... This was one game that I would never forget and would want to play it time and time again.

❤ THANK YOU!! ❤

Hello! We wanted everyone to be able to play the game that's why we released it for free. Our director, Kooriiko, loves her fairy tales so this surely won't be the last game with that theme. ;)

Thank you for playing!

Oh my god.. i can't even express how much i love this game! I've played all of your games and they just seem to be getting better and better as time goes on.. this one had such a deep backstory to it that it kept me hooked and playing it non-stop, your artwork was so beautiful as it always is and i look up to you and aspire to be an amazing artist like you one day... I loved every guy in this and i know it's hard to create characters that everyone will love but they're so beautiful.. i like Karma/Klaude the most though.. i even cried at most of the bad endings and (SPOILERS:) when some of the characters really close to me died like Delora or Parfait.. :,( Thank you for creating such amazing games, and please continue to do what you love.. <3

Aww... We're happy to know that we've improved since Locked Heart. Thank you so much for playing our games! We really appreciate it.

And just practice hard! We'll be rooting for you ;)

I just started the game and I am totally in love with Lucette's character. She's cold and mean, but not enough to be totally put off as the person playing her. It's easy to connect her traits back to what she's been through. She really holds the theme of solitude and how isolation can really hurt a person. And yet, she's not totally stone cold and she's obviously human, whereas some games have an ice queen that is a boring, mean robot. Her inferiority complex comes to light and it's easy to understand why she feels so threatened, as she feels as if no one really cares about her, so it's not like she's rude to her step-sibling just for fun. It's hard to be nice to people you feel replaced by. Great job on her! (I remember being like that at one point so she's easy to relate to, also!)

We're glad that you're enjoying the game so far! And we're glad that you can understand what Lucette has/is going through. We did our best to make sure she acts like that for a reason.

Thank you so much for playing the game! :)

Hello there! Thank you for the comment and constructive criticism. We really appreciate them! We'll surely make note of the stuffs you've pointed out and do our best to improve more on our future games. Have a nice day! :)

Absolutely love this so far! Varg is really my favorite, I'm already writing a fanfic for him. The art is really lovely for a free game, especially the backgrounds and the animations in the menus when you first start and then during the ending video. I've been recommending this game to my friends lately and I hope to write reviews for the game soon :D

Awww... Thank you so much! We're glad that you enjoyed the game. :)

Hi again! I wanted to private message you guys but couldn't figure out how to - on here or tumblr or anything haha. Anyway, on the otome games subreddit, there's been a discussion of CP. I thought it might be an interesting read if you're looking for some more in-depth feedback. I'm a part of it but admittedly I'm not too good at expressing my thoughts haha, but please do take a look and see all the love and praise and constructive criticism everyone has for CP! <3

Hello there! Thank you for letting us know about it. Yes, we've already read the critiques there and we're very grateful for them. We may not post anything there (mostly because we're still drowning with all the feedbacks) but rest assured we've read everything and have taken note of all the critiques.

We're actually already aware of most of the critiques that has been pointed out and were (kinda) already expecting them, and so we'll do our best to improve more on our next games. :)

Hi there!

Thank you very much for making this game! I have played a lot of otome games. And yet you give me the most satisfying feeling that I had for the long time after I finished Waltz good ending. I know that there is a lot of good otome games but this is the best one I ever played.. This is like the feeling when the first time I played otome games and you able to give me that satisfying feeling again..

Oh god... This feels so nostalgic..

I love your game so much that I accomplished the game for 3 days.. I wonder that you give some secret scene in this game. I even tried hard to click randomly in the main menu to find something that you hide in it.

Anyway, I am really glad that I played this game. I hope that you guys make some wonderful games in the future. ~\(≧▽≦)/~

We're so happy that you've enjoyed the game. Thank you so much for playing! :)

And yes! We'll definitely make more games in the future!
