The Life and Suffering of Sir Brante is free on Steam until July 23

The Life and Suffering of Sir Brante is free to keep on Steam right now — you have until July 23 to grab it, no strings attached.

The game is a text-heavy narrative RPG built around brutal, consequence-heavy decision-making. PC Gamer's Shaun Prescott described it back at its 2021 launch as something like Princess Maker, but set in a grim fantasy world with the George R. R. Martin dial cranked to max. You play as Sir Brante, a man navigating the rigid class structure of the Blessed Arknian Empire, where every choice ripples outward — affecting not just your own fate but the people around you.

The giveaway is timed to promote The Life and Suffering of Prince Jerian, an upcoming game set in the same world. That one puts you in the shoes of a crown prince dealing with political intrigue — same flavor of misery, different social stratum.

If you have any interest in narrative RPGs or choice-driven games, this is a straightforward grab before the deadline hits.
