LIONKILLER is a choose-your-own-adventure game made in Twine. Play as Hua Mulan, a young lesbian who is conscripted into the First Opium War against the British Empire. Run a flower shop, kiss a girl, shoot a matchlock rifle, and uncover a military conspiracy! Your actions will lead you to one out of four different endings. Will you get the girl, or will you die an inglorious death?

Gameplay tip: There's more lesbian content if you choose to eat lunch in the store.

Content warnings for misogyny, mentions of drug use, mild sexual content, and descriptions of violence. There are also negative sentiments expressed towards drug users, which is not shared by the developer.

All the parts have been compiled into one file. Simply download the file and then open in the browser. Please let me know if anything is broken! I am dedicated to patching any bugs that might arise.

If you're a member of the press, then please see this press kit.

Parts 2 and 3 are funded by Tap by Wattpad. The game is also available on the Tap by Wattpad mobile app on the Play Store and App Store.
