By Justice or Mercy

Editorial Worth it

By Justice or Mercy is an ambitious narrative-driven adult game with a strong revenge plot and genuinely engaged player base. The story draws comparisons to classics like *The Count of Monte Cristo* for its complexity and scope; players consistently praise the writing, character development, and relationship routes (particularly Chloe and the "dom sister" Alex), along with the thoughtful design choice of viewing alternative paths in the gallery after each scene. However, the game struggles with update frequency and volume—several players note that despite regular releases every few months, each update contains relatively little new content, and the main revenge arc has yet to meaningfully advance. The build itself is stable for most, though some Android users and those using older save files have encountered installation or character-state bugs; a relationship-modifier mod exists as a workaround for certain save issues.
