À propos de ce jeu

Beneath Versailles, desire still reigns. Indulge your ambition and taste a secret society’s most decadent pleasures while secrets decide your fate and history is reenacted behind locked doors.

Silk and Secrets: Rites of Pleasure is an interactive novel by A. Simon. It’s entirely text-based, 100,000 words and hundreds of choices, without graphics or sound effects, and fueled by the vast, unstoppable power of your imagination.

When you begin your research into Versailles’ royal history, you uncover secrets far more surprising than you ever imagined. A society called the Great Royal Entertainment secretly carries on the hedonistic rituals of Louis XVI’s court. Initiated into the society as the Duchess of Sighs, you must decide what you are willing to trade for access, influence, and truth. Will you investigate the society from within, gathering evidence to expose it and secure your place in history? Or will you embrace your new role, surrendering to the pleasures, power, and protection the society offers?

And most importantly of all, will you manipulate others’ desire for your advantage, indulge in pleasure for its own sake, or find true love amid the society’s erotic rituals? Or, find pleasure for a night or just a few minutes with any one of the society’s other members of any gender. But beware: all knowledge comes at a price.

• Play as a woman; have relationships with men and liaisons with people of all genders

• Choose a persona at your initiation - cunning courtesan, saucy barmaid, or innocent maiden - and act it out

• Slip into hidden chambers and uncover dark secrets that have been concealed for centuries.

• Play by the society's rules and become a society favorite, or defy their strictures for the sake of your own ambition

Will you expose the truth… or surrender to the pleasure of being exposed?
