Seven years after the events of Serafina's Saga, Grand Prince Robil Feldren dies of illness -- and a few weeks later, Queen Belatrix Grandil dies in in the midst of a "hunting accident." Serafina Elborn and her husband Reuben Jeridar are poised to take the throne, except for one big problem: many nobles suspect that Reuben Jeridar arranged the assassination of Belatrix Grandil.

Players take on the role of Odell Perin, who is unwittingly thrust into a position of power. Due to her neutral stance, Odell Perin is elected to serve as Regent long enough to settle the ongoing disputes -- and thus determine who will become the next King or Queen of Darzia.

Serafina's Crown is a visual novel with elements of fantasy, adventure and romance. Every decision Odell makes as Regent of Darzia will change the story arc to favor different gods. These decisions will get Odell closer to solving the murder, but they can also make things more complicated for the inexperienced ruler ...

The game also features a debate system that allows Odell to argue points in court based on the stats she has earned throughout the game. Winning debates furthers Odell's quest in securing the next monarch of Darzia.
