The Life and Suffering of Sir Brante is a 2021 role-playing video game developed by Sever and published by 101XP. Players make choices in a branching storyline.
Players make decisions about the life of Sir Brante, a commoner born in a fictional feudal kingdom, from birth to death. This is done similarly to classic Choose Your Own Adventure-style gamebooks. Player choices contribute to statistic and relationship changes, which can affect what options are available in later situations and what ending they receive.[1]
Developer Sever is based in Tomsk, Russia.[2] 101XP published The Life and Suffering of Sir Brante for Windows on March 4, 2021, and for Xbox One and PlayStation 4 on February 10, 2022.[3]
The Life and Suffering of Sir Brante received positive reviews on Metacritic.[4] RPGFan encountered a software bug in their playthrough that they felt ruined their ending. However, they said up to that point it had the makings of editors choice because of its writing and gameplay.[1] The Games Machine said when judged as interactive fiction, it is excellent.[5] Though it lacks a German translation, Gameswelt praised the writing and role-playing aspects.[6]
