Princess Maker Refine review
by Mia Blais-Côté

The very first Princess Maker game. A sim/stats game to raise. It's not as complete as Princess Maker 2 - there are fewer endings and random events - but it's still very enjoyable to play. There is nudity if Maria goes on vacation during the summer and I must admit that these images make me uncomfortable.... (especially when she still young) Apart from that, it's a very good game. Warmly recommend it to Princess Maker fans.

Princess Maker Refine Is a "daughter simulator" in which you take over the complete Education of a Girl and influence her Career. Gameplay The Gameplay quite layered. After making various Settings such as Before and Family Name, you end up right in the Game. One takes over the Training of the "now still" 10-year-old Sage Girl until his 19th Birthday. The Main Part of the Game is to increase the Protagonist'S various Status Values, some of which influence her later Destiny. In addition to perfectly classical RPG values such as Strength and Stamina, values such as Elegance and Glamour have also found their way into the Game. Each of these Values has a Benefit, but which one that is, you only learn from external Sources such as community Guides or by trying It out. The Increase in Status Values usually Results in jobs that additionally bring In money, as well as training, which takes place in Either Etting, Military or Education. That again costs money. In any Case, Work and Learning increase the Stress level Of the Daughter, but more in the next Paragraph. Values likely to be important to almost every Player are Stamina, discipline (in the Game "Spirit"), Morality and Stress. If the Stress exceeds a Value resulting from Stamina and Discipline, the Girl gets sick and loses a Point every day at almost every Status Value until the Stress is low enough again. enduring. Players who do not read through the Guides beforehand quickly have a Daughter whose Main Attributes are 0. Another Element that causes me some Abdominal Pain personally is the Fights, some of which are plagued by Chance. (Yes, you can also go clinger monsters to reap Fame) Even if all the relevant Status Values are above 400 and you put on the best Equipment in the Game, it may be that Monsters in The starting Area (!!!) of the Heroine in training rip open the Ar * ch, if you have chosen the wrong Blood Group at the Beginning and have some Bad luck. What we would like to Help again with the Lack of Internal Game. Those who are not deterred by this design-technical Immorality and consult the Guides have a fairly passable Simulator here. Soundtrack, Graphics The Soundtrack is now not world-beating but audible. The Graphic is quite nice to look at. Summary Pro: Many Endings a lot Of Replay value Kontra: You are practically thrown into the Game Without explaining The Gameplay fighting history partly heavily dependent on chance conclusion: Princess Maker Refine does so much wrong in terms of design. The coarsest (the Lack of Tutorials) can be fixed by Guides and those who can see beyond the Weaknesses have a fairly passable Daughter simulation. Personally, I keep an Eye on and give a Buy recommendation, because I was well entertained despite the Shortcomings.
