Never A Man Again – A Zombie Love Story
So, I just found this otome game called Never A Man Again, and it’s got such an intriguing twist! You’re basically playing as a revolutionary agent in the fictional land of Kiepskia, where the south is poor and the north is rich. Your mission? Take out a general. Everything’s going according to plan until you’re suddenly shot and find yourself… a zombie. Yep, you’re undead now, with a pesky little voice in your head to boot.

Story & World
The game’s set in Kiepskia, a land divided by wealth and power struggles. You start off as a revolutionary agent trying to change things up but end up getting killed, or at least you think so. Instead of staying dead, you come back as a zombie! The story then takes you on a journey through this supernatural transformation while still being wrapped up in political intrigue and rebellion. It’s got that cool mix of horror with the whole zombie thing and some really deep themes about life, death, and what it means to be human or not-so-human anymore.

Character Routes
The characters in Never A Man Again are super diverse and interesting. You’ve got Aleksy Cezary, the stoic Air Force captain with his towering presence and fearsome aura. Then there’s Ksavery ‘doktor’ Joachim, who’s basically your mad scientist type, super smart but driven by power. He adds an unpredictable edge to the story.
Apolonia Arleta is another standout character; she’s tough as nails from her military background and doesn’t get phased easily. And there’s this mysterious figure, Juno K.K.Honoratus, who’s hauntingly beautiful with his albino features and tragic past. Finally, Idalia Honoratus, the Queen of Kiepskia, balances being calm while handling immense responsibilities after her brother’s death.
Each character has their own route that explores different sides of the story, making it rich with personal drama and romantic tension.
Community & Representation
What’s really cool about this game is how it taps into LGBTQ+ themes through characters like Ksavery ‘doktor’ Joachim, who uses he/they pronouns. It feels inclusive and thoughtful about representation. Plus, the game is made by a solo developer under aceonline, which gives it an indie vibe that often appeals to communities looking for unique storytelling experiences.
Content Warnings
Heads up if you’re sensitive to certain topics: this game involves themes like death, bleeding, bullet wounds, and of course zombies. So it’s definitely on the darker side in terms of content.
TLDR
Overall, Never A Man Again is shaping up to be an engaging otome game with its unique twist on zombification mixed with romance and political intrigue. If you’re into stories that blend supernatural elements with deep character development and don’t mind some darker themes, this one’s definitely worth checking out!
