The Withering Realm is a grimdark medieval fantasy made by FlyToTheMoonStudio for the HTML engine. You play as a male protagonist trying to survive and expand a kingdom while managing resources including food, stone, wood, soldiers, loyalty, hope, and gold. Recruitment of unique and randomly generated maidens supports that goal, and the game uses punishing random events, taking inspiration from Darkest Dungeon. Its visuals are 2D AI CG artwork, and selected themes include fantasy, bdsm, and monster.
Development is ongoing, with version v0.1.2.4 dated November 9, 2025. It runs on Windows, Linux, Mac, and Android, is in English, and is uncensored. The latest update added a princess plea quest, a merchant quest without images, a new interaction system, and new events, while allowing heroes to be sent to a brothel. The assignment system is currently not working and will be replaced in the next update.
