About

The Nightmare Princess follows on the heels of Deception IV: Blood Ties, which revolved around Laegrinna, a deceitful fragment of the Devil’s soul who chose between Sadistic Torment, Elaborate Death, or Humiliating Demise, to defeat her foes through trickery. In this new installment, players not only relive Laegrinna’s entire pursuit to free her father, the Devil, from his eternal prison, they also get introduced to an entirely new, wickedly sadistic, and infernally mischievous character: Velguirie.

    For those of you who have never played a Deception title, The Nightmare Princess is a fantastic entry point for newcomers with tons of content and replay value. But for those who have previously purchased Blood Ties, aside from the new quests, there is nothing here that's worth the full asking price.

    It's certainly not for everyone, and those offended by anime characters in skimpy clothing should certainly look the other way, but those willing to try something a little different, a game where you're not given a weapon and tasked with eliminating thousands of soldiers with it, but rather take the backseat and plan out some devilish traps, should certainly give Deception IV: Nightmare Princess a try.
