Road to Empress I is a well-made FMV game that knows exactly what it wants to be. It’s a palace drama with betrayal, ambition, and perpetual danger that comes to life through great acting and high production qualities. The option structure can sometimes feel limiting and unjust, but the story is still interesting enough to keep you going, even when you die a lot.
