Published by Sony in Japan and by Atlus in the west, Rule of Rose was developed by Japanese developers Punchline, who had also developed Chulip but were also made up of the remnants of studio Love-de-lic, who crafted cult classics such as Chibi-Robo, Little King’s Story, and the renowned cult classic MOON, which recently received its first western localization in over two decades on the Nintendo Switch.
To this day, the game is out of print (at least in the West) and the only copies are available on online retailers such as ebay for up to $90 USD.Ī shame because it’s a fascinatingly bonkers story filled with queer and trans text and subtext, tackling difficult subject matter in a thorny, risky, lurid, yet human manner. It received controversy from Jack Thompson (remember him?) because it explored violence, abuse, and sexual content involving children. For context, this is based on a late generation Playstation 2 survival horror game from 2006.
The fifth feature script I ever finished (January of 2015), and basically an experiment for me to figure out adaptation, then a new concept I was toying with.
