Imperial Chronicles -v0.5- Od Lazy Monkey Here

Completed stories, meaningful choices, or a polished experience.

Mostly a linear visual novel with occasional dialogue choices. Few of them seem to matter in v0.5; consequences are either obvious or nonexistent. No stats, no sandbox mode (yet). The “chronicle” aspect (tracking your decisions) is mentioned but not implemented. Expect 45–90 minutes of content per playthrough, with minimal replayability.

However, v0.5 ends just as things start moving, leaving major plot threads hanging.
