Evaluation

My Lovely Daughter originally launched on March 8, 2018. Over the years it received two paid DLC additions: The Inquisitor story expansion (March 11, 2019) and a Digital Artbook (July 10, 2023), plus an Original Soundtrack (June 14, 2018). On June 23, 2024, the developers released "My Lovely Daughter: ReBorn" — a free visual upgrade for existing owners that brings the game's artwork to 4K resolution. This appears to be the culmination of post-launch support for My Lovely Daughter itself. All four DLC entries are released with none listed as upcoming. The developer's attention has since shifted entirely to My Lovely Empress, the third game in their series, which launched on August 21, 2024. No further content for My Lovely Daughter has been announced or hinted at after the ReBorn update. The studio's post-launch communications for this title have gone quiet since the ReBorn bug-fix post on June 25, 2024, consistent with a game whose content development has concluded. My Lovely Daughter can be considered a complete package as of the ReBorn update in June 2024.

About My Lovely Daughter

My Lovely Daughter is a game about overcoming the loss of a loved one through forbidden alchemy experiments ... and murder. You are Faust, an amnesiac alchemist and father, who wakes up alone and confused only to discover that your lovely daughter has died. As you enter the first stages of grief, you do what everyone wishes they could do but can’t: bring back the dead with the power of alchemy.

To revive your daughter, you must perform forbidden alchemy experiments to restore her soul. You will have to create dozens of homunculi, raise them as if they were your own daughter, build relationships with them ... and then murder them to harvest their souls!

To support your experiments, you will also need to assign jobs to your homunculi, even sacrifice their bodies to sell their remnants, all to keep your income flowing and your research progressing. Perhaps, along the way, you will even recover your own memories and come to understand how this terrible situation came about.
