Well, I don't have anything I'm actively playing but rather come with a question instead.
I've been on a bit of a binge of manga/manhwa about MCs being isekai'd into romance novels as villainesses and was wandering if there are any titles with this theme within the genre. It doesn't have to be 1 to 1, just close enough to feel familiar (things like head-strong protagonist, fantasy setting, humour and obviously villainess status - preferably unwilling one).
My experience with otome games is... limited to say the least so I'll take anything, from the most popular behemoths to unknown indies made by a single person.
Hey! So originally you would have a lot of people telling you no, we don't even have villainesses most of the time. Then some fans of the "isekaied into an otome as its villainess" genre started making actual otome games after it.
The My Next Life as a Villainess series, with this exact premise, got an otome game based off of it in Japan that also has an English release for Nintendo Switch.
Everything else I mention can be played on PC.
Save the Villainess also has this exact premise, although there has been drama behind the behavior of its devs in regards to criticism.
Haven't played The Villainess Just Wants To Eat! yet but same premise.
I gave Saintess of the Golden Bow a shot which does have MC isekaied into a romance fantasy world, albeit not as the villainess and she got isekaied into a BL novel instead.
Do not know from the description yet if Villainess Menage has her isekaied but you definitely have MC as the villainess.
There are probably more that I'm forgetting right now!
I hope you enjoy that binge. I really enjoy that manga/manwha genre.
Yeah, I realise this is a niche theme so I'm not too hung up on ticking off all the boxes. Thanks for all the suggestions, I'll definitely check them out!
