''Bronze'' is a work of [[Interactive Fiction]] by Emily Short and a darker retelling of the [[Beauty and The Beast]] tale. You play as Beauty, on the day that you must return to the Beast's castle as part of the magical binding contract you have made in exchange for your father's freedom. However, upon re-entering the castle's gates, you soon find that something is amiss.
Line 6:
The game focuses on exploration and puzzle-solving, with a total of 55 rooms to explore and several different endings.
 
The game can be downloaded for free [https://web.archive.org/web/20080411032743/http://www.inform-fiction.org/I7Downloads/Examples/bronze/ here].
 
{{tropelist}}
=== This Game Contains Examples of: ===
* [[Beast and Beauty]]
* [[Bittersweet Ending]]: If you restore the Beast, but fail to end the curse that keeps the servants and everyone (including you) trapped there for eternity.
* [[The Casanova]]: The Beast hints that he was this before his transformation, and {{spoiler|would lure women to the castle and then have his way with them once they were under his control}}.
* [[Deal Withwith the Devil]]: {{spoiler|The lords of the castle may have done this, resulting in the curse which causes all who enter the castle to have their souls bound to it}}.
* [[Fractured Fairy Tale]]
* [[Grimmification]]: The Beast is much more morally ambiguous here than in most versions, and it's telling that Beauty can actually ''kill'' him if she wants to in one ending.
