Brave Soul is a RPG/dating sim for Microsoft Windows, released by Crowd in Japanese. It was translated to English by Peach Princess.
[edit] Gameplay
Brave Soul is an unusual combination of the role-playing game and dating sim genres. The player directs the main character (named Rudy by default, but this can be changed) through an epic adventure of swords and sorcery, including many standard RPG features such as monsters, spells, weapons, armor, hit points and inns. Other characters join Rudy's party such as a healer, a sorceress, a thief, a catgirl or a princess.
However, the player can also guide the actions of Rudy and the party such that a romantic relationship can develop between Rudy and one of the female characters in the party. Each female character has a different worldview and preferences, and the player seeking to match Rudy with her must understand what she will like and guide Rudy appropriately. The choices involved can be whether to release prisoners, whether to take on dangerous or morally dubious missions, and also choices in conversation. As a female character's affection for Rudy grows, so does her effectiveness in combat. However, unlike some other dating sims, Rudy can only have a relationship with one of the female characters each game.
