About the Game

Once upon a time, a lonely human office worker was browsing their favorite dating website, when they received a surprise invitation from Miss Amaryllis Alstroemeria, a cunning fae businesswoman with a reputation for innovation... and a love of mischief. As such, they were only given a scant 15 minutes to prepare for a night of merriment, libation and perhaps even some carnal affection. Or shall this night take a different, stranger turn? Do you have what it takes to impress a beautiful, ruthless and astoundingly wealthy fairy? Find out in The Little Black Bestiary: A Midsummer Night's Barcrawl.

A Midsummer Night's Barcrawl is an erotic modern fairy tale set in a world where humans live side-by-side with all manner of monsters and fantasy races. Choose one of two protagonists, a human male or female, (The latter making this into a lesbian dating game) play through several minigames as you scramble to prepare for your impromptu date, get to know Amaryllis and a variety of other colorful characters as you get to see a side of society you barely know anything about, and of course, if all goes well then this fairy tale may very well get a 'happy ending.' Euphemism fully intentional. But even if things go badly, some of the other potential outcomes for the night might be interesting as well...

Features:
-Two playable protagonists: one male and one female, each with their own unique CGs and exclusive dialogue options.
-Several playable minigames with outcomes that provide (dis)advantages during the dating portion of the game
-Different routes and endings depending on the player's choices
-Detailed sex scenes with hand drawn, 2d art.
