  So... Here is a serious review for a change. First of i wanted to say that now i have only done Rise's route and it was amazing. (Will update once i've done more) (Have finished it but I'm to lazy to update, If you got any questions feel free to add me and ask or just comment below) So where to begin... Well this game is a Visual Novel that has humor, drama, love, and some serious stuff aswell. The jokes in this game are fantastic they made me laugh out loud and brightend my mood from the serious matters. Beatiful art AND soundtrack. This game also has voice acting, and not just some shitty voice acting. It is really good. It took me 18 hours to complete Rise's route and that is good time for a route imo (i consider myself a fast reader so it might take longer.) I dont really know what more i should say it's really good, in 2days i played it for 18hours (amazing? nah i should just get a life.) The length of this game is quite impressive as stated before and that to me alongside everything it is worth the price, dont let the price tag scare you. The only negative thing i can think of is there aren't many choices but they aren't really needed just feels kinda weird is all Aand if you are 18+ and want a copy of the 18+ version you can buy it from here (you also get a steam key for the game) http://www.mangagamer.com/detail.php?goods_type=1&product_code=117 (NSFW, NUDITY ON THIS PAGE)

(SO Kawaii!!) - excellent storyline - a huge variety of background music - the jokes in it can so hilarious at times - so many sence are epic! - the feels.....(i really didnt think i would cry...) cons: - the jokes can go a bit far(still acceptable) - the price can be off putting conclusion: excellent second visual novel for me but for the price it worth it, there are many plus for it and very few cons that would not make me not recommend it, as the characters are brilliant and hard not to love them all, soundtrack is unbelieveable and suited the mood incrediablely well, the artwork is stunning, the story was breathtaking. as for the bad there not alot ,other than pricetag the other bad thing i can really say but it just me ,although it all age version there are time it was slightly disturbing of what it was implying but that only comprise of 1% of the time i spent playing this so it not so worrying.

  do her. I mean, Do It in her. Oops. I mean Do it for her! (yeah... i got it that time) A great game thus far. Few Grammar errors but it provides entertainment as advertised. My only complaint is that I did not realize for $10 more I could see boobies and get a steam key for the cards as well. Edit (finish Ritsuko Route): Even without the adult version this is very good. Takes ~45 hours from start to finish running on auto. I went with the Ritsuko route and it was very good and well worth the money. *must avoid manly tears over Ritsuko's love*. My only complaint is that the ending is very dry and doesnt give a full sense of completeness... It just kind of ends quickly after the story climax. 10/10 would buy again just for cards and then realize that I dumb.

  The question you're probably asking is whether this game is worth $35. The answer to that is subjective of course, but I generally say that a game is worth it if I get 1 hour per dollar. I know that's a bit of a cop out answer, so here's my actual review Is the game good? Yes Is the game great? Debatable, visual novels are somewhat different from most games in that the order you do the routes in them actually does have a significant impact on your experience. I did Ayaka's route first which made the other routes suck by comparison. The game has a good sense of humour, and made me really laugh, like laughing hard enough for my head to touch my desk funny. That humour is one of the selling points. This is a feel-good VN, there are some darker parts to it, but for the most part it's supposed to make you smile. That is an issue in some respects though, the game was enjoyable and entertaining. It was not however terribly touching (except one part of Ayaka's route brought tears to my eyes... her route is the best by far). Of the four romances: One was cheesy (Ritsuko's was too ridiculous to ever take seriously) One was pure vanilla extract (Rise's route... of course hers was also the funniest because they openly made fun of how over-the top vanilla it was. The drama felt a little forced though, and the romance overall felt unrealistic.) One was good (Chiho's route was fairly standard, but had an actually realistic romance progression, [ it took two fucking months after declaring undying love for eachother in Rise and Ritsuko's routes for the first kiss] and was fairly exciting) One was very good (Ayaka's route had stellar character development, she seems like an interesting character and winds up being interesting in ways completely different from your expectations. All development is explained logically and I felt this was the most realistic route due to the interal conflict and difficulty they had expressing their feelings... I mean come on, it's not easy to ask someone out, let alone confess your love to them before the first date). Do I regret buying it, since 2 routes weren't my cup of tea? No. Rise's wasn't bad per-se, it just wasn't to my taste, some people will like it, and some people even liked Ritsuko's route, in this kind of game, there will always be some contention when ranking routes and saying what was subjectively better. The forums do seem to agree that Ayaka's route is the best though, and it is. Ritsuko's route was kinda like Mega Pirhana, one of those cheap ass Sci-Fi channel movies that are just hilariously bad. I couldn't really tell if the dev's were taking it seriously or not, but I wound up laughing during the climax (of the plot... the game is censored, but they did a really good job of it so I'm not complaining) which makes it a failure in my book. The fact of the matter is that I got my money's worth, and would buy the fandisc if it came to Steam (assuming it was at or under $15) As I mentioned before, order matters, I would reccomend Chiho's route first, then Rise/Ritsuko and end with Ayaka for maximal enjoyment. Overall I'd give it a 7.5 / 10 Worth playing, but not the best thing since sliced bread.

  fifteen hours fifteen whole fucking hours of non-stop angry feminist waifu action and it was funny In all seriousness, I was surprised by how much I enjoyed this game. I thought this would be another "One Bloke, Fifty Ladies, Massive Orgy" game, but it actually [i]wasn't[/i]. If anything, it's actually trying to get them to like you that's difficult, mostly because your character is some shit-faced fuckin' never-spoken-to-women-before twat that likes to be borderline socially handicapped when it comes to women. Which is funny, because he somehow ends up getting into some all-girls Christian school in China. Wait, is it Japan? No idea. Whatever. Anyway, when he goes in, to my horror I discovered that the entire facility was filled with nothing but Extreme Feminist Students and a Headteacher / Camp Kommandant that hates everything with a penis. Like, holy shit, she fucking [i]despises[/i] you because you're not a woman, and she's genuinely obnoxious to the point where you, as a player, will actually want to kick her out of the window and empty an AA-12 into her corpse. Outside of incredible hatred towards the staff ([i]except Sister Mishima, who is 100% bae[/i]), all the students, except about two, despise you for what is basically the reason that they have never seen a bloke. So...expect arguments. And eventual sex. Have fun.

  To be honest this is my first review even though I've only done one route of it. So please dont slander me Ill get over the pros and cons Pros: - Incredibly well done story (The drama is real is this one) - Characters that will melt your heart ( Voice acting was amazing ) - Jokes are actually good - The Art of the game is amazing - Sound effect were on point Cons: - Wished there were "animations" per say - No nudity involved (Ya damn pervs.) Thats about it for the pros and cons, but where do i start the review? I'll just write a simple one then, The Story? Your a borderline unsocial jackass went it comes to girls (seriously there are moments so cringy on how he did not realize what the girls were talking about) that tries to save an all girls school from going bankrupt by changing it into co-education, sounds hard? Yes it is. With me playing 30 or more hours into it just means you are in for a ride. The characters (Main or even Side characters) they all had influence into the story, not just blatant side characters that just appears for chit chat and random moments, no they all actually have a point in the story. The routes are only 4 from this one. Im not complaining since each route really has a touching story to each girl, whether it being your old friend, your saviour, your enemy, or just a seductive older women that likes to tease you alot. The plot twists are incredible in it aswell like truly "a holy **** " moment. And then there was the ending. I cried. Seriously i did. Just to put it simply the drama ride you took and it ends all in perfect climax, it just hurts right in feels. So should you buy this game? Yes, preferably on sale Is it a great game? It is for me. Opinions of others do count, but yours is to find out yourselves. How much would you rate it? 9.8/10, due to the fact it didnt have animations to it. (Also nudes were cut out, perverts) And thats my review thanks for reading my random opinion about this wonderful game!

  8/10. Recommended. Princess Evangile is primarily a dating simulator, this can be quite boring if it's not what you're looking for. In terms of a visual novel the story is amazing, each route will throw you into a violent rollercoaster of emotions. I'd be lying if I said I didn't cry at each one, both for happiness and despair. The music is wonderful and the whole story is good. Each route is different yet so gripping you won't want to stop. The stories are evil, they will twist your heart in ways you've never known before. Ritsuko-chan for best waifu. Very recommended. Wonderful artwork, certainly value for money. The translation also uses very advanced English and some French, so be prepared to have google open.

  One of the staples of Visual Novels / Bishoujo games out there. As you are the only guy in the entire school and serve as the key for reforming Vincennes Academy. You will be judged on determine whether the school will stay as an all girls schools or reforming it as a mixed gender school. [h1] Pros / Good points [/h1] [b]Story[/b] -The main story is pretty unique as it serves as the base and character development for most of the cast. The route works on choosing 1 girl out of 4 and go with it till the end. The development and conflicts for the story are definitely the key point of this VN. [b]Characters[/b] -This VN have wide variety of characters.The main four girls were give their own unique traits and hard to be catogorized with a simple dere types. Each girls have their own motives and goals which serve the purposes of their own arc stories. [b]Memorable Soundtracks[/b] -The soundtrack suits and sets the mood perfectly with scenes. Its OST 17, Sorrow is the best piece of this VN IMO. [b]Dollars per Hour[/b] -It's pretty long so it definitely pay for its price. Expect approximately 10 hours for its main route and 5 for each of the four girls. [b]Neat and helpful GUI [/b] -The GUI actually helps you by explaining some of the gibberish girls words which is awesome. The feature allowing you to customize the visibility of the dialogue box is pretty neat. [h1] Cons /Issues [/h1] [b]The Storyline for routes are too linear [/b] - Its lack of choices and endings might be quite of a turn off for those who wants a choice heavy VN. [b]There are only 4 girls route [/b] -Some arguably main girls are left to the sides without their own routes even though the cast of girls are pretty huge. [i]Feels bad for Ruriko [/i] [b]Bad End[/b] -Have the most lame and lazy bad ending I have seen from any VN I have played. It only has 1 bad ending and you can't be dissapoint enough. [b]Optimization[/b] -It's a pretty old VN so you can't expect it to look that good one a higher resolution PC. It goes 720p at most. It also [i] does not compatible with steam overlay.[/i] This is a big issues for those who wants to save screenshots. After considering the Pros and Con, I would definitely recommend this game. It is great for those who just starting out on visual novels because it has a very simple choices on its routes. The story is mediocre compared to other staples however. The sequel to this games definitely fixed some of the issues with the story routes and cast who haven't given much development. However if you a hardcore VN player and wants some heavy choice game , this might be a turn off for you.

  This is going to be difficult... Princess Evangile is the sort of game that comes around every once in a while that puts me in a really uncomfortable position. What started as something I had strong expectations for ended up being bitterly disappointing. The strong opening chapters gave way to a mediocre and often irritating first half that was not wholly redeemed by the much better character-specific stories in the second half. The end result being that I come out of this game feeling uncertain about what to do now that it is time to review it. My first experience with the game was playing the demo, which covers a few of the early chapters of the story. First impressions were good. The protagonist, Masaya, had a rather nasty start where he was screwed over by his own father in a particularly despicable way. It put in me a hope that, perhaps, he would be a developed character of his own along the lines of, say, Tomoya from Clannad, Okabe from Steins;Gate, or Yuuji from Grisaia. His unpleasant backstory was more than enough cause to produce a jaded character who, while wanting to do the right thing, would still have an eye out for suspicious activity or behavior. In other words, I had a hope that Masaya would be, in contrast to quite a lot of VN protagonists, interesting and savvy enough to see when people were trying to mess up his life rather than just being a victim to other people's actions. Instead, I ended up seeing a faceless stupid perverted doormat character that manages to be worse than most VN protagonists I have come across. I can understand that some people might not be the sharpest tools in the shed, but Masaya's repeated walking into situations where all the signs point to "this is a bad idea" is almost impressive in its stupidity. I had hoped that the first chapter of the game would be a life-changing event for him (as it would for basically anyone else), but the rest of the game just makes it clear that Masaya is, has, and will always be a sucker falling into other people's traps. To say that I was disappointed would be an understatement: it did very serious harm to my opinion of the game as a whole. It's a case of when you end up getting high expectations from a first impression, the fall when reality ends up failing those expectations is all the harder. Another character I have no choice but to bring up is Misako, the headmistress of the school. I've come across quite a few despicable, spiteful, and irredeemable characters before, but even I was a bit thrown by how foul she ended up being. The trouble is that she is at the center of virtually all of the drama in the story, which means she gets quite a lot of screentime. None of it, not even the bits you get about why she is the way she is, makes anything she does acceptable. The standout moment for me came in one of the character storylines where she not only is deeply unpleasant, she breaks the law to advance her warped agenda. I'm not talking about a "Oh, the police may scold you or lock you up for a night" kind of crime, but one that in the US would get you at least 20 years in prison. And while I (sort of) understand why charges were not pressed in that situation (collateral damage), it sealed the deal for me that Misako was completely irrational, unsympathetic, and worst of all faced no real consequences for her actions. As with Masaya, her presence in the story actively hurt Princess Evangile. Ok... so I despise two of this game's major characters. What about the rest? Well, while there was quite a few stereotypical VN/anime moments/tropes throughout the story, things actually got more interesting once the character-focused storylines came into play. This probably reflects badly upon me, but the moment when I really started thinking "Maybe I won't throw this game into a fire after all" was when someone got stabbed. Woohoo violence. But in all seriousness, even if Masaya's role in the story is pretty much entirely stereotypical and stupid, the female leads such as Rise, Chiho, Ritsuko, and Ayaka had more than a few good moments. I'm not sure which would be my favorite storyline, but Ayaka is the clear winner when it comes to this game's characters. But really all four of them are alright, and the various side characters are ok even if they mostly are just in the background and don't do much. Not in the same league as Clannad or Grisaia, but they are acceptable. And now the hard part... Can I recommend this game? The game is split into 26 "chapters", with 16 onwards, depending upon your choices, being the character focused storylines. Most of those first 15 chapters were draining to get through, especially when the obnoxious headmistress got involved. But, as already stated, the character storylines are noticeably better and improved my overall opinion of the game. If I was judging this game on the first 15 chapters, I would throw this game in a dumpster and light it on fire. But because of the character storylines, which in practice ended up being more than half of the game's overall playtime since there are four character routes, I can't do that as easily. So I find myself at the end of this review, after 30 hours of playtime and close to 2 months attempting to chew through this game, conflicted. Ultimately, it is a question of if a friend decided to ask me whether or not this game was worth playing, what would I tell them? That the first half of the game isn't very good, the protagonist and main villain grate on the nerves, but that it ends up getting better in the second half? Sadly, the improvement in quality in the character storylines is not enough to make me want to tell my friends "get Princess Evangile and play it ASAP." It makes me want to tell them "Perhaps, but there are much better VN's out there that you can play instead." So I guess that's a "no". A "no" for a game with a 95% approval rating on Steam is certainly going to get this review flamed. That's how internet people are after all: ragey people with hair-trigger tempers that will attack anything that remotely bugs them, regardless of the strength of the arguments presented. But I can't give a game a "yes" just because I don't like having my reviews downvoted. I'm going to have to bite the bullet on this one. Princess Evangile is, in short, a middling VN that starts promising, rapidly squanders that, but ends up being fairly good once you get into the second half. But while this game is not "bad", the fact remains there are far too many other VN's I would recommend before this one. But most of all, I'm just disappointed. :(

  I wish that dream would never end and I could delate my memory so that I could play the story with the same feelings again (:. If there is a heaven, it must be like this. If you like school visual novels with beautiful girls this might be the right visual novel for you. The english in this story is very easy to understand with basic english skills.
