Quinrose’s First Game

Mahoutsukai to Goshujin-sama was Quinrose’s first commercial game. It was for the PC, and like following Quinrose games, was fairly drawn out and had a good bit of content, but was not up to the commercial standards of today.

In the October B’s Log, Quinrose announced a totally re-vamped Mahoutsukai to Goshujin-sama. I actually have the original, and can say that this will definitely be totally new.

Just compare the two pics below: the first is from the original, the lower one is the new art:

The character screen of the old version

And the cover of the new version

And not only the art is being redone. There were no voices in the original (I was a little disappointed after paying $50 for it!), but the re-release will be full voice. And to make it even better, they’ve revamped the system (which is acknowledged to be kind of slow), are adding tons of new scenes, and made each route deeper. Apparently the original had a large number of endings (I wouldn’t know, since was never able to finish it…) but they weren’t very involved, so the new version will have fewer, but more involved endings.

I am really looking forward to the new version – I tried to play the old one a little and still couldn’t, it was just too slow (the gameplay and the actual processing speed). The release date hasn’t been announced yet, but we know that it will be for the PC.
