Karlsson’s Gambit [v0.8.31 FinalA2] [Grym Gudinna Games]

December 25, 2025F95

You play as a male protagonist who has recently been – in his mind unfairly – arrested and sentenced to five years in prison. While in prison, he is approached by a mysterious woman who offers him an opportunity to work under a special “inmate rehabilitation” program with one of the richest companies in the world, The Karlsson Group. This program will allow him to get out of his sentence in only six months instead of five long years…if he can survive and thrive. Little does he know that he will be exposed to a far more dangerous and strange situation than he anticipated, as he will be exposed to a world of conflict, ambition, cruelty, passion, and of course sex.

v.0.8.31 TestB

1) Remember that a Test Version is not designed to be the final version of this update. Some things are definitely missing, among them 2 dom scenes and 2 sub scenes. I have noted in the update where they are if you come to that spot in the story. While I put in a few animations in one scene on the Test Version, I have done about I would guess 50-60 animations that will likely end up at least 40-45 in the Final Version. (I tend to reject some every update)

2) Use LOAD to get your 8.2 end saves, START is more for loading Season 1 saves from the end of Episode 7. I just throw that out there as a reminder as sometimes I get messages about this when an update comes out.

3) A minor spoiler to please pay attention to a few choices — in particular one early one with two females. Just read them 🙂 and don’t fly through/skip them super fast as it might be important long-term.

I still have a few edits I wanted to make but I really wanted to commit to getting it out this weekend, so here it is!

I would really appreciate any feedback or things that I and the people helping me missed!

I especially want to thank the people that helped test this version along with me before it came out! They are far better than I at catching certain errors that someone like me can’t see because of how I work/evaluate things (plus I also lack the fresh eyes perspective very often, etc.) Words cannot fully express enough how much I appreciate their help! But I really love and appreciate each person that contributed! Thank you!

Developer Notes:

My creator name is Grym Gudinna, which means “cruel goddess” in Swedish! The word “grym” also has an additional colloquial meaning beyond the normal cruel/mean/heartless, and can also mean cool/nice/awesome, and this perfectly describes the two sides of me!

While this is primarily a somewhat dystopian femdom based world, the main protagonist over time will be able to delve into male domination given the right choices. Given the narrative arcs for many of the characters, they may be some slow build here and there in the story. Warning: The extreme sub or evil path will be very dark so be careful and avoid those choices if not your cup of tea. Final endings will range from very romantic/traditional endings on one end to outright death at the other end, so there are many long-term variations of how you can play the narrative.

Version 0.2 Dev Notes: Your dom or sub points from 0.1 do lead to different scenes in 0.2 so you won’t see everything in one playthrough no matter what for those that wish to see everything.

Version 0.3 Dev Notes: Please keep in mind the dom path will allow you to avoid the protagonist having strong femdom on HIM, but not entirely avoiding a femdom world around him. Also keep in mind some of the content can be dark (this is a dystopian world) so if you are bit squeamish in seeing evil characters, please be careful, thanks! Also, 0.3 has many choices that do not impact 0.3, but much later in the story so multiple saves are recommended if you want to experience a lot of the content in different ways. Have fun! 🙂

Version 0.4 Dev Notes: Please note your starting rank from prior episode greatly impacts your 0.4 experience. Please use Zoey’s excellent WT for 0.1 to 0.3. As always, a disclaimer that the game can have some darkness, so be aware of that when playing.

In Season 2 press start to import your Season 1 saves.
Save at the mask screen at the end of Season 1 (v0.7b Final) for the next season, when you have to create a named save.
