this is just my review after dropping the game but finishing like 90% of it
pros
+ a genuine successor to the princess maker series made with real love and passion put into it and i think it can even rival the later installments of PM
+ really cute art style that just works even if the current scenario is a bad one
+ really easy, and you don't really need a step by step guide unlike other daughter raising sims such as PM or long live the queen
cons
- daughters age at the beginning is only 12 and most of the romance options are WAY older than your daughter with the EXCLUSION of nina, craig, and if you're okay with the romeo and juliet law; lon and ze. some characters, like hackett, despite being adults, flirt with your daughter while she is only 12. some of your romance options are your teachers or role models whom don't show ANY kind of romantic interest until after you've finished the game, or a character implied to be blood related to your daughter (spoilers). the only nonromantic endings are with basilou and jermaine.
- while you are left on your own for your first playthrough, your stats are improved after each playthrough because you gain points through achievements, making it SIGNIFICANTLY harder to get normal, worse or bad endings late-game. i managed to get the best ending without using any cheats and my other attempts at getting the normal endings after that has been harder than getting the best ending itself
