Sakurako’s Cuckolding Tale is a darkly comedic narrative RPG where a young onmyōji, Sakurako, is forced to become an otaku’s girlfriend to save her childhood friend—but a mysterious curse turns her mission into a twisted race against time and love’s treachery.
A tale of duty, desire, and dark humor
1. Onmyōji Meets Modern Madness: Blend ancient Japanese mysticism with chaotic modern otaku culture as Sakurako uses her sealing arts to combat monsters—only to face a foe who manipulates both magic and human frailty.
2. The Curse of Compulsory Love: A hidden spell makes Sakurako gradually develop real feelings for her captor, creating a surreal tension: rescue Takimaru before time runs out, or succumb to love that could either save or doom her soul.
3. Twisted Choices, Unlikely Allies: Partner with eccentric villagers—or the otaku himself—to gather clues. Every action risks alienating Takimaru, deepening the curse, or accidentally unleashing the monster again.
Gameplay That Plays With Your Heart
1. 30-Day Timer: A visible countdown adds urgency—each day alters dialogue options, character relationships, and possible outcomes. Ignore it, and the curse’s grip tightens irrevocably.
2. Dual Play Mechanics: Switch between stealthy monster hunts using onmyōji talismans and otaku-world social sim interactions. Failed romance quests might accidentally unlock key clues… or ruin trust forever.
3. Moral Quandaries: Is it better to lie to the otaku about your growing feelings, risking his suspicion, or confess and risk losing focus on the mission? Choices shape whether Takimaru is rescued—or becomes an unwilling ally in Sakurako’s downfall.
A Story That Challenges Convention
1. The Otaku as Antagonist/Enigma: The villain’s obsession with anime tropes clashes with Sakurako’s earnestness, creating darkly funny moments. Yet beneath his quirks lies a tragic backstory that may sway your empathy.
2. Takimaru’s Silent Struggle: Rescued or not, his fate is tied to Sakurako’s evolving emotions. Hidden “trust meters” track his loyalty, with cutscenes shifting based on how much he perceives her “betrayal.”
3. Multiple Bittersweet Endings: Will Sakurako break the curse, sacrifice herself for love, or become a reluctant villain? The finale hinges on whether you prioritize duty, self-preservation… or let the curse choose for you.
Visual & Atmospheric Immersion
1. Stylish Anime Aesthetics: The village blends traditional shrine architecture with garish otaku subcultures, reflected in character designs—from Sakurako’s red-stained ofuda charms to the otaku’s neon-lit bedroom lair.
2. Soundtrack of Contrasts: Calm shamisen melodies clash with glitchy 8-bit remixes as scenes shift between serene onmyōji rituals and chaotic otaku-induced chaos.
3. Dynamic Environments: The village itself “rots” as the curse progresses—walls scribbled with anime references, or shrine doors warped by Sakurako’s conflicted emotions.
