The princess has lost her crown.

　　Find it for her and play the game.

　　Don't look too hard.

　　Do what you're told.

　　Never turn off the light.

　　There's nothing else to find.

　　A simple, arcade-styled game requiring patience and perseverence, designed to convey an unsettling atmosphere, and encourage dread without relying on the more common horror tropes we have become accustomed to.

　　Owing to the punishing nature of the initial release, there are now two versions of BLANCHE, a new version in which panda rooms act as checkpoints, and BLANCHE TRUE, which is basically the original game as it was, for those who enjoy a challenge. In both versions, keys are still lost if your piece is hurt. We apologise for any frustrations the original difficulty setting has caused.

　　If you enjoy the experience BLANCHE has to offer, please consider donating a little money by buying a download, in order to fund our upcoming project, tentatively named FOREVERLAND, which will be an improvement on this game in every respect. If there is a demand, we'll work on releasing a version that is Mac compatible. Let us know via comment if there are any game-breaking bugs. Thank you.
