The Beauty Which only Beast Knows
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
Story
On an expedition in the frozen North, the captain of the knights, is saved by a strange dragon-like Beast. Yet, this creature's generosity is met with theft and as the man begs for his life, the Beast accepts his beautiful daughter in exchange for his life.
That Beauty is Mei, a woman meant to be the Crown Prince's third concubine, but now sent to the Beast of the North. While she lives with the Beast, Mei begins to see things, some frightening, some beautiful. Painful memories of her past resurface that remind her of the price of her beauty and the ugliness that eats away at her.

I'm surprised that some characters are dressed in traditional Chinese style and some are in Japanese style, and the story setting is Western. This combination of East and West is really creative! And the art looks great!😲
i like game
*slight spoilers* Solid demo! Seeing Mei transform 'physically' in response to the choice makes me wonder what else will happen as the story progresses. Super interested in seeing the full version of the game :)
Me too, i wonder what those symbols mean
The art looks quite gorgeous!
Oooh, looks cool!
Looks promising, can’t wait to try it!
