Evaluation

What if George Washington was a Girl? launched on August 12, 2022 as a free, self-contained first chapter of the developer's "Alter Historia" saga. The store description notes it is "only the first chapter," and the developer followed through on that promise by releasing a second chapter, The Magical Land of Canada, as a separate game on Steam — announced in February 2023 and linked from this game's title screen via a patch on June 27, 2023. This game itself is a complete, standalone chapter. The developer has not announced any additional content for this specific game — no DLC, no expansions, no further updates are listed or promised for it. The June 2023 patch was purely a maintenance and linking update (fixing a typo and adding a link to the sequel). Continued chapters in the Alter Historia series are released as separate games, not as updates to this one. The last developer communication for this game was on June 27, 2023, and since then there has been no indication that this entry will receive further content of its own. As a free-to-play, fully shipped chapter with no unreleased content and no announced additions, this game is complete as delivered. Players who want to continue the story can do so through the separately sold sequel.

Evidence

Developer announced Chapter 2, The Magical Land of Canada, as a separate Steam game — confirming the multi-chapter plan is fulfilled through separate releases, not updates to this game.

About this game

A historical visual novel about history's greatest heroes and villains and their trials and tribulations.

It is important to note that a lot of time and research was put into the writing of this game's story and themes, all historical people and events were heavily studied to make sure everything is accurate. This was taken extremely seriously and any naysay will not be tolerated.

So anyways, the story starts with the Dark Musician (Mozart) plotting to destroy Antarctica. Georgia Washington (George Washington) and Teddy Rosebelt (Theodore Roosevelt), knights of the United Nations were sent to stop the mad musical genius before the icy continent is lost forever.

BUT THEN, more stuff happens and there's intrigue and suspense and penguins? Find out more and meet other historical figures in this first chapter of an exciting new saga, Alter Historia.

Yeah that's right it's only the first chapter, hopefully this doesn't get popular because there will be more if it does.

Game Features

Meet several historic figures like Georgia Washington, Bonny (Napoleon Bonaparte), The Night Gale (Florence Nightingale) and more.
Has an in-game wiki that unlocks exciting info about the actual historic figures as you progress through the game.
Features a custom made visual novel engine. It currently has camera effects, map scenes, particle effects and more, with lots of other features being planned.
Has an actual plotline. (It's sort of similar to Shonen stuff like One Piece.)
Bonny is the best character.

Parental Guidance Suggested, this uses some brief strong language like "Heck".
