A very cute, quick play! The luck factor of gathering resources can be a little frustrating (especially if you're trying to gather for characters like Lottie or Lavinia who require a large amount or a large variety of resources) but overall it's simply enough to get what you need to progress (and impossible to lock yourself out a Becky's route at least). Overall a very fun take on the story... even if some of the costuming (such as Sara's party dress) takes you out of the world for a moment.

A very nice story about empathy and how little control we have over the circumstances we are born in.

Ah! no one did monarchy and colonialism quite like the British. Except for the French, and the Dutch, and the Portuguese, and the Well anyway, this game contains no actual monarchs. This is a VN based on the classic children's book "A Little Princess", with f/f shipping or vibes if you choose one of the 2 platonic routes (or if you choose zero routes). Well made, cute, condenses the story to take place over one year with the protagonist and the four girls 'her age' being preteens. If you haven't read Frances Hodgson Burnett's book, it's public domain and free to read on Project Gutenberg. You should definitely read it if you did enjoy the VN! Much of the VN dialogue and narration is verbatim from the book, and the story remains the same overall. The new material creates more backstory for the non-protagonist characters. The additional scenes are written in a way to match the style and tone of the original text and do not disrupt the main events in the story's canon. Some of the possible relationships feel in-character for Sarah and others not so much, but hey that's the nature of fanfic, isn't it? To sometimes be the story it wasn't. I would recommend this more for younger folks than adults (but it holds nostalgia value), and I'd say it's as appropriate for kids as the original book. The romantic parts that are added to the story don't push the envelope.

When the Steam backlog finally gets too mocking one has to start from the oldest entries. And needless to say even if I knew what to expect from the latter half of the game and had to go over the same scenes with sad violin playing on background they still hit like that Miyazaki gif about feels. But I heard no bell and obviously saved the best ones for last, B > J > E = La > M > Lo. And damn, the only adults in the school really are so spiteful that they either got too little or too much of the vaunted cane of discipline.

I already read and adored the novel "A little princess" long ago, so when someone made a visual novel based on that novel with pretty artwork and YURI I was intrigued and had to play this. The protagonist, Sara Crewe is delightful and definitely the star of the story, with her wonderful imagination she brings joy and magic to everything she touches. It's easy to do good when you are treated well yourself, but even though it becomes very difficult at times Sara proved the kindness and strength of her heart even in the face of misery. It's a beautiful, precious gem of a story that I found myself reading again and again, and I can say A little lily princess did the novel justice. The gameplay is simple stat-raising: You choose activities to raise different stats, and use the stats gained to unlock the girls's events. "Routes" are not exactly routes per se, the main story is divided into two parts, in the first part you can get events with any girl, but in the second part although the story stays the same, you just get events with only 1 girl and the rest are locked. You don't need a guide to play the game, it's easy to get 3 girls's events in 1 playthrough without having to replay the whole thing again. My thoughts about each girl, spoilers alert below: I played Jessie first. She has the prettiest design out of all the girls and the story does acknowledge this. Her route is the most romantic (and the only one to have a kiss CG! A beautiful one at that) as she herself is confirmed to be lesbian and is a hopeless romantic who wishes to meet the princess (NOT prince) of her dreams. The other routes are more friendship-y and only a little hint of yuri. However what happened near the end of her route soured my affections for her quite a bit, still a good route, but I don't like her as much as some other girls Next is Lottie. Since she is still young Sara is like an older sister to her, no romance here. Although she is bratty and spoiled as a child should, she still cares about Sara and helps her in any ways she know. She is adorable, that's all Lavinia is pretty much a bitch. Although it's due to her insecurity it still doesn't excuse some stupid shit she did. She causes troubles in nearly every route and only in her own route does she realize her mistakes and sweeten to Sara. This is another route meant to be clearly romantic Ermengarde (her name is so long), tbh I wasn't interested in her much, she can be dull and boring (sorry). But in her route, although clumsy she is really sweet and cute, her warmth thaws Sara's proud, closed off heart. Like Lottie, she frequently visits Sara and make her days just a bit brighter. Mariette's was meh, really. I wasn't interested in her from the beginning and her route was almost all her being cold, distant to poor Sara too. It's so-so, not terrible but I personally wouldn't choose her as my fav that's for sure The last is Rebecca (Becky). I think Becky is meant to be the canon girl and she totally deserves it. When Sara is in a terrible situation Becky's company was important to get her through it all. They do everything to protect and help each other. Becky is also the route that is automatically unlocked whether or not you did her events, but of course I read all hers because sweet girl deserves it. In conclusion how I feel about them : Becky = Ermengarde > Jessie > Lottie > Lavinia > Mariette
