My Wife is a Spy?!
A downloadable game for Windows and Linux
Note: Currently a 30-minute demo made during OtomeJam 2025 is available. Follow us on itch or the studio's social media for more updates on the game. Wishlist us on Steam to show support. Your interest means the world to us.
Trigger Warning: This game deals with topics of heavy familial abuse. It gives hope that one can overcome the pain.
Life was never fair not before the accident, and certainly not after. You expected magic, adventure, maybe a crown. Instead, you awaken in a foreign body, forced into an arranged marriage with Zachary, the cold and distant Duke of the North.
Born to the sunlit luxury of the South, you're sent to a frozen, war-torn land plagued by monsters, famine, and unrest. Your new husband is a man of duty, not affection, bound by loyalty to a crumbling crown and now, bound to you.
But even pawns can learn to move.
Will you earn Zachary’s trust and fight beside him to save his people? Or seize your own fate, rise as a villainess, and bring the North under your heel?
What will you become in a world where loyalty is dangerous, and love might just be the ultimate betrayal?
Every choice you make shapes your destiny. Navigate a delicate balance between gaining Zachary’s affection and raising his suspicion. Earn his trust to unlock romance, or let doubt fester and carve a path toward power and rebellion. Will you play the dutiful duchess, or manipulate the game from the shadows as a true villainess? Your actions determine not just relationships, but the future of the North itself. In this world, loyalty is tested and betrayal has a price.
- Two Diverging Routes: Shape your destiny through two distinct narrative paths: Romance or Villainess. Will you fight for love and loyalty, or seize power on your own terms? Each route offers different challenges, choices, and emotional stakes.
- 8–10 Hours of Gameplay: Experience a tightly woven narrative full of political intrigue, emotional tension, and personal growth. Every scene is crafted for replayability, with meaningful branches and impactful decisions.
- Five Unique Endings: Your choices matter, from quiet moments of trust to bold acts of rebellion. Unlock one of five possible endings, including both heartwarming resolutions and darker, more treacherous outcomes.
- Affection & Suspicion Systems: Your actions affect how Zachary sees you. Gain affection to grow closer and reveal his true self, or raise suspicion and risk pushing him and the North toward chaos.
- 13 Gorgeous CGs: Relive unforgettable moments through beautifully illustrated scenes that highlight turning points in your journey.
- Nameable Protagonist: Step into the story as yourself with a protagonist you can name, shaping her morals, choices, and legacy.
- Mature, Emotional Storytelling (17+): Explore themes of arranged marriage, power, and survival. Includes content warnings for family abuse and emotional manipulation.
- Rich Fantasy Setting: Inspired by Renaissance Italy and medieval Sweden, navigate a world divided: sun-drenched, decadent South vs. frostbitten, crumbling North rife with tension, mystery, and rebellion.

this is so so cool, definitely getting wishlisted <3
Thank you very much for your support <3
It was a fun demo. Really love character art. I do wish the demo would have let us meet the Duke for a bit to get a feel for his personality firsthand more. Those carriage sounds were annoying, if that's okay to say... The transition of the MC from getting isekaid from her former life, despite the trope being so common, I felt really sympathetic. I hope to see the full release :D
Hi, thank you for your feedback on the carriage sounds. We'll replace them in the next update with something less distracting.
I'm happy that you liked the demo. As we did with "Saintess of the Golden Bow", we will be updating the demo with new content throughout the months leading to release. In the next build you will be able to talk to the Duke more.
Thank you for playing :)
It looks great and I'm really excited to play the two paths but unfortunately the mac version of the demo can't be open it's litteraly the message on the screen. Let's hope it's a mini bug and not a big one !
I'm sorry this happened. When we tested the build internally, it worked. Unfortunately, due to the engine change, we've encountered a major issue that's currently preventing us from providing a Mac build of the demo in the near future.
I want our games to be accessible and available to everyone, and I'm actively working to make that possible. While I can't give you an exact date yet, please be assured that I'll do my best to make it work.
Hi ! No worries !
It happens, the really nice problems when you're coding...
I'm glad to learn the Mac build will exist one day ! Some developpers give up the Mac build if it doesn't work immediately so I'm really happy to know you won't give up !!
Anyway the game looks great, take you time for the developpement and have fun doing it ~ !
