Hello everyone! Exciting news – if you’ve been following the progression of fan translations of otome games, the full translation for Black Wolves Saga has finally been released! My announcement is a bit late, but nonetheless, I’ll be posting some information here to help everyone get started!

Firstly, I wanted to say although I was prepared to translate guides for the game, it seems unnecessary as the choices are in Japanese. Luckily, there aren’t many choices in the game, and it’s easy to figure out which is which on your own. You can use this guide in Japanese to help you get through the game!

To get the patch, you will need to download Visual Novel Reader. This is a program that you use alongside the original game and gives you the translations (which are already built into the program). For more information on the patch, setting up the game, and troubleshooting, visit the release post here.

As for the game itself, it IS a PC game, so you won’t have to use any sort of emulator. You can download the game here, as well as from nicoblog (which also has instructions on using the VNR patch!)

If you have any questions I’ll try to answer to the best of my ability! I’ve only played a bit of the game so far, it is very dark and has a lot of elements of gore, so if you’re not comfortable with that I recommend staying away from the game, as it is one of the more “f*cked up” type of games, to put it bluntly.

*Note: I didn’t participate in the translation of this game, but you can be sure to thank the translators and people who put it together in the link to the release post, which has credits to those who did!

Happy otome gaming!
