The player’s choices influence the course of the narrative, which is reflected in the interactions with the other characters and in the soundtrack.

Evaluation

There are no particularly frightening scenes or excessive violence. Since Stray Gods: The Roleplaying Musical is inspired by Greek myths, difficult themes such as death and betrayal are discussed.

It is a game that has 4 romance options, so there may be suggestive content.

It is necessary to know how to read to follow the story of this game. Dialogues may contain threats, insults, and manipulation.

The main character investigates a murder to prove her innocence and discovers Greek myths by interacting directly with the myths’ actors. It’s a game that can spark interest in mythology and story, but suggestive themes can come up at several points.
