Our take on My Lovely Daughter
Rather than centering its alchemy on discovery or crafting alone, the game ties experiments to raising homunculi and harvesting their souls. That shifts the simulation toward a disturbing family tragedy, with player choices affecting the story and multiple endings shaping its structure.
What is My Lovely Daughter?
My Lovely Daughter is an alchemy simulation about Faust, an amnesiac alchemist who discovers that his daughter has died.
He conducts forbidden experiments in an attempt to restore her soul, creating homunculi that he raises and forms relationships with before harvesting their souls. Homunculi can also be assigned jobs, and their remains can be sold to fund income and research. Simulation choices affect the story, while the game’s dark themes address child labor, abusive parenting, and social ignorance. The story may reveal Faust’s lost memories as the experiments continue. Play includes multiple endings, secrets to find, and letters to collect. Its subject matter includes grief, murder, and disturbing family relationships.
