The Traded Groom

The Traded Groom is a short narrative game about a political marriage between two people who meet for the first time on their wedding day. You are the chief of several semi-nomadic clans, and your husband is an imperial prince of the Han people, with whom your clans have a complicated political relationship. Though you expect him to be arrogant and prideful, he proves different from what you anticipated.

The wedding night

Over the course of the night, you get to know your husband and try to determine whether he is a spy for your enemies or a victim of political schemes. Your choices shape the relationship and whether he becomes a love interest, a friend or remains a stranger. The story contains 35,000 words and takes 1–2 hours to read.

Endings and extras

There are five endings to the wedding night, followed by four epilogues and three extras that show how your choices have shaped the relationship. The game includes eight CGs, four of which are NSFW.
