Review | This is probably the most famous one in this series of games... mostly because there is actually an 'abandonware' English translation quite readily available. Personally, I don't like it as much as Princess Maker 3, but 2 -does- feature a cute ending with Cube. ^^ |

Review | I was totally surprised at how much like 2 this one was. ^^; I found that by comparing the dialogue in my English 2 and this, that I could actually reinforce my Japanese skills somewhat. ^^; Anyway, it's kinda neat to play through ^_^ |

Review | I like this game better than its predecessor in the way it plays. Getting the prince is no longer just talking to him while he is disguised :P One actually has to work harder to get his attention. This game would be *perfect* if the girl could just marry Cube... ^^; |

Summary | You can play as any of the girls from 1, 2, 3, and Legend of Another World in a board-game-type adventure. There are many familiar elements while there are also many new elements. |
Review | I really like this game... It's cute, and though it is set up like a board game, it still includes many simulation elements. It also has a neat photo gallery ^_^ Photo galleries are obsessive... I mean, I keep playing Harutoki because I want to get *every* picture in that gallery ^^; |
