Rarely does any complete dating simulator reach my country, the Philippines. I was glad to have this game.

Yes, you are Yamagami Shuji, the best newbie in Kotobuki Prep. No doubt eight girls took interest in you (not just because they want you in their clubs), but you have to choose one, and end up hurting the others.

I was using a P166, 16MB Win95 machine, but it works well…however, it takes several attempts—and even rebooting—to get the loading right. Even that, there are problems with the MIDI music. JAST, the producer, admits to this glitch.

However, I don’t care about the music (Just turn it down for Pete’s sake!)—it’s the game that counts. The girls in the game represent difficulty—Shiromizu Ruri being the hardest, and Shoko Nishino the easiest. The rest are fairly easy, but it takes time. Shoko may throw herself at you, while Ruri is so mysterious you think she’s off limits. The rest takes the traditional way.

All in all, I liked the game, because of its complexity. JAST was right when they said this game features the most complex dating simulator yet. I hope there’s a sequel to this game. Now, if the other companies would translate their games to English…
