0.15 Release☀️
Hi everyone. The time has come to release version 0.15.
I’ve tested the game to ensure it’s playable, but since I had to add quite a few variables to the code for this version, bugs are possible. If there are a lot of them, I’ll fix everything in one big patch in a day or two.
As you might have noticed, I’ve broken my rule about the two-month development cycle again. Unfortunately, I had to move to a new place in June, and I hadn't anticipated the sheer amount of paperwork involved. I tried to make the most of the extra time by slightly increasing the size of the update. That said, I won't pin the entire delay on the move; I probably could have dedicated more time to development and released this update at least a week earlier.
I’ve also finished working on the map for the Valley/Golden Kingdom and the Free Cities, though I couldn't find a place for it in the story for this update. But it will definitely come in handy in the next one, as version 0.16 will be mostly dedicated to the Valley and the Elves. The rough draft of the script is already complete, and I can't wait to start development.
I have received several reports that the font in the game is quite eye-catching, and in the near future I will try to make several new versions and vote among you for the one you like/dislike. There will also be at least one vote for the content in the game, but a little later during the development of version 0.16.
As usual, due to upload speed limitations, I’m attaching just one download link to PC version. You’ll be able to find more links on game aggregators like F95, LewdZone, and others in a couple of hours.
P.S. I was double-checking the game just now and noticed that one of the animations turned out jerky or unnatural. I hope this won't be too noticeable, but if it is, please let me know and I'll fix it in the next update.

the best game among all in this category with such a plot, it's like I read an 18+ fairy tale before bed. you clearly have imagination in every sense, this fantasy is better than 80%. I wish you luck in developing this story and more works and profit!
Брат дай возможность сделать ее вампиром, пусть будет монстром но будет жить.
💝💝💝🙏👍✌️
Если коротко об обновлении - Постановка перед выбором просто ужасна. Пришлось перепроходить всю игру с полным игнором Элин. По сути выбора просто не остается. Я не знаю кто захочет так хладнокровно убивать сестру ради другой сестры. Ветка Элин у большинства игроков считай просто выпала из игры полностью.
Your plot design and character lines are insane!
I feel very bad for kayden .In 1st case her wife dies on his wedding and 2nd case is even worse for him . If elis doesn't do any incent thing then kayden have a hope for happy marriage.
Dear Developer, I really love the game you created. The story and characters are so vivid and emotionally powerful that they truly stayed with me. May I humbly offer a suggestion? Could you please consider letting the little sister be revived, or give the protagonist a chance to save her? Many of us players really love those two sisters. We sincerely hope the little sister can come back. In real life, who wouldn't love a girl like that? Also, please don't let the protagonist end up like the main character in the Chinese novel To Live — a life filled with nothing but tragedy. We hope the story can still leave us with some warmth and hope in the end. I'm really looking forward to your future updates. Once I earn some money, I'd love to support you and become a sponsor. Thank you for making such a wonderful game.
It's me again. I really loved your game, but with the stupid thing you did with killing and choosing routes, I have to be your hater. I won't recommend your game anymore; for me, it's going to be garbage. Excellent potential But you ruin it with those decisions and routes; the family harem was nice up until v0.14, but you screw it up by killing her and people justifying it because of your stupidity. This game is garbage. It's a harem you built up and then throws away. I can already imagine how your story will end. Game over, the protagonist dies and his wife is left a widow and orphans People will say, "Wow, what a great game!" and "Congratulations on killing people!" Version 17, Aurora is going to die, version 18, her mother dies, and version 19, who will die!!! Well, at least the dev in Him kills the harem, but it's avoidable, and there's no choice here. I'd rather stick with Nephilim.
This game is becoming too depressing, it's not even fun to play anymore. The MC is incompetent, and literally everything that can go wrong, usually goes wrong.
I waited for Rosa's scenes. But seeing her sick was truly sad.
Same, it's heart-wrenching
Please don't kill Lea
sorry, Mohamed
the boss
Hi Lazy monkey everytime like that its amazing but that last part is overwhelming i feel like hopefully there is a cure for this overall it's awesome keep rocking :)
is it mandatory to download to incest patch for incest content or just downloading the game is good enough?
Good enough
Надеюсь, в версии 0.16 будет CG Авроры.
Ideally, it would be a CG featuring either breast sex or a hugging-style sexual position.
I hope Rosa is okay; I wanted more scenes with her T-T
Oh yeah, she is very sick now
How can I get Katerina or Eva to participate?
In the Isis path I noticed that you get a chance to later seduce Aurora but I failed is that deliberate or is there a path where you are successful?
Deliberate
Insane update LM.. Your story is simply deep and amazing. Looking forward to more in the future, stay safe and remember to take breaks brother.
Dev must hate Elin so much that they wrote story so player have to avoid romancing Elin just to save Lia from death.
Dev, I like your game and plot, but I didn't like the final scene; it left me feeling angry and intrigued. If I want to avoid that awful tragedy, I have to close the twin's route, and I wouldn't like to do that either because I like the family harem of the mother and two sisters. Please make a route that avoids that tragedy and includes the twin and younger sister's routes. It reminded me of the game HIM; the developer also killed the queen, and the next update The option arose to save her and not let her die.
Целиком и полностью поддерживаю
What exactly is the story or what happens to Lia if you don't do anything with Elin? I am a bit confused since I assumed 'that' Lia event is so big it would happen regardless
She will still be alive, maybe...
ty for the update. Sad to say goodbye to Eva and Cass for now but they already told to be back sometime so we wait for that.
Why isn't there a replay option available yet?
The mother hasn't appeared in three updates. She's my favorite character; I wish I could see her more often.
Next update maybe
I have played so many High Fantasy games, Read books and watched cinema. But Imperial Chronicles has wonderfully written exceptional plot. Hats of to you Lazy Monkey for delivering this wonderful story. Just finished 0.15. The ending man I was crying tbh. I liked her alot But this is just the start. Elis has to endure a lot of pain in upcoming chapters. Elis (Elentari Melda) and Elin (Haul Morgoth). There union Selina can break the cycles. 0.16 will be on Valley and Elves. Serafina currently in the valey unaware that one of her child become victim of fate long prophecized. Elis and Ophelia are the blood of Elentari Melda but Elin who never had hybrid fever means only one thing that she carries the evil Haul Morgath blood in her but How? Why Elin and Elis bonding caused Haul morgoth (Selina) to be reborn again?
Imperial Chronicles is a true RPG. The decision player makes will significant alterations to the entire story. A virtuous Elis who doesn't have incestous relationship with Serafina and Elin and generally decision that ingnore lust. The outcome is much better. Even elven godess Mirta supports that Aran Elanor. If player wants to reach good ending then support the persecuted Elves, avoid bloodshed, and most important ignore Elin. Don't impregnate her. Her child of incest is a harbinger of chaos and end. Selina even sort of kill Ophelia if you go on that route.
It’s really upsetting what you’re doing to Cass she’s gotten the worst of it in every possible way. She’s never around anyway, but even when she is, the conversation is always about Elin or someone else never about them. It’s really sad she reminds me Yennefer from the books or Eva Green in Kingdom of Heaven. I feel so bad for her, she wasn’t around much to begin with, and now she’s gone entirely.
Lets trust LazyMonkey shall we? I feel the same about Amina in magic route. But LazyMonkey must have better plan for cass and for amina in the future. Be patient
we will definitely need that bug fix patch
yep, voting is in troublesome state. And conrad. And then something that i forgot about
Is there a walkthrough by any chance?
nope. A mod maybe
Good work but... are you serious??!! Please, tell me she can be saved! 😢
Valar Morghulis
thanks dude
Amazing work
Sorry, my friend, but I have to tell you—before the wave of hate hits you hard—that you’ve made a terrible, TERRIBLE. mistake. Events like this can't be taken lightly, especially involving a character so close to the protagonist; these are the kinds of things that can ruin a developer's career, whether they're big or small. I hope you set things right and that this ends up being nothing more than a lapse in judgment or a misguided attempt to make a strong impact on the players.
No need for the threat. This is Lazy Monkey's game. Its a pity, but well oh well, i really want to see til the end of this game
For so many VN I've palyed, your game is the olny one that is set in a "solid sword&socery fantasy world" while having an epic story telling. Great job.
Great work! Keep it up!
The only Dev with consistency. P.S you can also use AI like ChatGPT Claude or Gemini to speed up your work.
Please don't kill Lia, she doesn't deserve this.》_《

Hey, I'm back again. Did you finally update? Woohoo! Awesome, there's something to play again! Bro, make sure to get some rest. Looking forward to your next update.😍😍😍😍😍😍
Thank you so much for this update Lazy Monkey. Hope you are doing well and eating well. Please take good care of yourself and stay healthy. I love you and adore you as a creater and hope you achieve paramount sucess. 😍🥰
Great work bro
First refill your energy by taking time for yourself, after that drink water 🌊, and when you get energetic, come happily 😀😄, because you are the most valuable person 🥰 here, can't wait to elves valley. Thank you so much for this update
Thank you, thank you, thank you! We love you, now go take a long rest you did your best.
Let’s gooo
Lord bless you with many more days to come, time to dine 😋
Is there any way to see all the scenes? There are already too many possibilities for me, haha. I don't even know how to watch Arcadia scenes.
I think all the scenes can be previewed in update only file which you can download. In forms of images and videos, inside the compressed file. But if you mean spesific routes to get arcadia scene, then you have to play the game and get to the right route
Siiiiiii
Lets go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you for your hard work!
Guys, if you have problem with the votings in the frost council, you need to change 452 line of 3frost_council.rpy, change wedding_partner from 1 to 2 .
Thank you, I anticipate finding out what happens next in this more than any new book entry or TV show atm :) also, it's good to be dedicated and hard working so you can try and stick to your own deadlines but you're much more reliable than most devs despite the super high quality and complexity of the branching narrative so dw, good job
😍😍😍😍😍😍 Great Work i love you man
If the update turns out to be a buggy mess, just blame it on the date it was published
Thank you LazyMonkey. I cant wait to meet again the "honorable" Northern lords with their famous "honour" culture in this 0.15 update. I hope you can make Amina into real romance route for the next updates. And of course to revive Julia ;)
Полностью поддерживаю
Lets gooo
Congratz on the release. Don't push yourself too much, though. Moving takes time and nerves.
ITS 10:30PM here, I won't be able to sleep now. I just love your work man.
I can already tell that it is going to be great just like the previous updates, as usual thank you LM and hope you can take some rest now 👍❤️
Good work, dont bother yourself too much, i would like to have more Devs like you with such consistency! Dont forget to refill your batteries from time to time ! 🫡💯👍
Congrats for the release LM
