Okay, I just discovered this game today while searching for other games to feature, and I fell so deeply in love with it I am going to give it its own feature rather than listing it among others~

Fairy Doll on iTunes!

A cute cinematic at the beginning of the game details that fairies came to the human world, but many people could not see or interact with them.  So, fairies took the form of dolls, so that they could live among people.

You get to name your personal Fairy Doll as well as input a name for yourself as well.  None of the pronouns are gendered, so you are allowed to imagine yourself as any gender.  And while all of the customization options for your Fairy Dolls are feminine in appearance, again, there are no gendered terms used, so you are allowed to think of your Fairy Doll as any gender as well~

Gameplay is mainly in the form of doing Work and Study tasks to increase certain personality traits for your Fairy Doll.  It is a bit like Princess Maker in that regard.  However, you are allowed to look at what the requirements are for each of the target personalities, so you are free to see beforehand what personality stats you need to be building toward and schedule your Work and Study tasks accordingly.

Additionally, Fairy Dolls have not one, but two personalities – one to act as their main type, and the other to be a secondary one.  I am working on making mine a Sweet Angel, so she needs a ton of Kindness!  Other personalities include Tomboy, Tsundere, Cool, Gentle, Demon, Princess, Warrior, and Yandere, among others.  You are even allowed a preview of what kind of dialog your Fairy Doll will use when they are attributed to any of those personalities!

Fairy Dolls talk a lot, not only specifically in conversation when you choose to chat with them in their room, but they will also comment on whatever tasks you are currently working on.  A lot of the dialog is cute, cheerful, encouraging words!  It just feels really good and happy to be playing this. Such a good feel-good, pick-me-up game!

The game is free to download and it seems that it is very generous about rewarding you with currency, outfits, accessories, and upgrades, without requiring you to put real-currency investment into it, but the option is there if you choose to.  I am surprised by the customization options available for free and after only playing it for a short amount of time today!  I’m pleased with the presentation of my cute pink-haired Fairy Doll in a frilly fantasy maid outfit, surrounded by flowers and magical mushrooms – which is a goal that would almost certainly require days of grinding or shelling out for premium items in other mobile games.  And several gacha items are available every day, too – and I’ve managed to get some valuable, cute items from them, not just junk!

That’s about all I have to write up about Fairy Doll for now~  I’m enjoying it, it’s just so cute!  It’s really exciting seeing adorable anime fantasy fairies in the itunes marketplace, and the fact that it’s actually a decent game experience is sugary sweet icing on the cake.

Do look into Fairy Doll on iTunes if you are as smitten with this cuteness as I am!

This week’s roundup for the ongoing series of cute anime Steam games! I’m gonna have to think of better titles for these soon.

As always, buying the Steam keys already in circulation on G2A is my recommendation! Don’t wait for Steam Sales, you can get them for cheap right now!

The Flower Shop: Summer in Fairbrook

From friends at Winter Wolves!  Deji’s colorful art work is always beautiful!
In this VN with farming simulation elements, you play as a male character
romancing the ladies of Fairbrook.

As of the time of me posting this, the listing for this game is only a couple bucks!

–

The Flower Shop: Winter in Fairbrook

Sequel to the above with a more streamlined farming mechanic,
this time you’re a female protagonist romancing the fellas!
*whispers* go for the glasses one, always go for the glasses one.

As with the above, this normally $14.99 game is only a couple bucks right now at the link above!

Croixleur Sigma

I have to double- and then triple-check my spelling of this one every time LOL.
Coixleur Sigma is an awesome action battle game!
The designs for the fighting girls are so cool!

–

Bunny Must Die: Chelsea and the 7 Devils

An action platform game starring a bunny-eared little lady.
…What else is there to convince you to play it besides that?

–

Fading Hearts

Oh man, I remember playing demos of this game from Sakura River
back when it was still in production – it is awesome and mysterious,
with deceptive NPCs and twists and turns all throughout the plot. *o*

Now an ongoing series! ᕙ( * •̀ ᗜ •́ * )ᕗ

As usual, I recommend getting Steam games through G2A, where you can buy Steam keys for much cheaper!

Fairy Bloom Freesia

A super fun action fighting game in an adorable package!
EVERYTHING SHOULD COME IN PACKAGES AS ADORABLE AS THIS!
You will pretty much win me over any time “fairy” is in the title of something.
I LOVE THE MAIN CHARACTER AND I LOVE THE SETTING!!

–

Magical Diary

From friends over at Hanako Games!!
I think this is actually the only dating sim on the list for once.
You can customize a character at the beginning!!
And the revealed identities for the characters are super twisty,
this game is overall just a great experience.

–

Eryi’s Action

This takes place in a magical fantasy setting like Fairy Bloom Freesia –
I personally am IN LOVE with the color palette of this game,
and how soft and round and cute all of the characters and critters are!
It’s an exciting action platformer!

–

Cherry Tree High Comedy Club!

Capcom published this seemingly out of the blue, I had to check it out!
The girls are really cute, the humor is fun and kooky.
I love walking around the town area just talking to all the weird NPCs.
Weird NPCs are the best part of any video game.

–

Fortune Summoners

This comes from the makers of Recettear!
Like Eryi’s Action, it’s a sidescrolling action platformer!
I like the characters in this a lot, especially how they talk among one another
RPG-style, with very nicely-drawn portraits.

Hey you!  Are you friends with me on Steam? ^w^

Here is a small handful of cute anime games I like~  I will definitely be making more posts on this subject, too!

I recommend buying Steam games through G2A, where you can buy keys for MUUUCH cheaper than their listing on Steam’s store!  Much easier on the wallet and takes the stress out of building up a cute games library for yourself! n_n  (If any of the pages linked here are sold out of keys, bookmark them and check back! :O)

Nameless ~the one thing you must recall~

Just LOOK at how beautiful this game is!!
Cheritz is also responsible for the equally beautiful game, Dandelion,
and this new story from them is even more emotional
(but with plenty of fun parts, too~).
It is fully voiced with Korean voice acting, too!

Hatoful Boyfriend

Okay, I have written about this game OVER AND OVER.
But that’s because it is seriously one of my favorite games ever,
and in the time it’s been since I last wrote about it, it got an updated HD release on Steam!
Now it’s accessible to even more players, and the pigeons are sparklier than ever.
Here’s a link to the Collector’s Edition, which includes bonus manga and yearbook extras~

–

Recettear: An Item Shop’s Tale

Okay, this is probably a game you’ve already heard of.
But it’s so cute, and I like it so much!  I especially appreciate the intro
where a small homage to Dragon Quest III (one of my favorites ever) plays out.
I love the fusion of shop simulation combined with action RPG dungeon exploring!
The NPCs you can pair up with are all so cool!

–

X-Note

A game from our friend Zeiva!  Her art is always so beautiful.
This one is about the heroine Essi and her mysterious travels through time~
There are MAAAANY cute boy characters in this one. ; 3;

This is also one of the instances were you REALLY see the advantage of G2A
over buying these regularly.  As of the time of me posting this,
you can get this $20 game for 60 cents!! *O*

–

Forward to the Sky

Looook at how cute and pretty this is!  I actually just discovered this game while I was compiling this list.
It looks to be a very cute little action RPG game, with this precious sword-wielding heroine~

–

Long Live the Queen

This game is eeeeveryone’s favorite!  It’s similar to the old Princess Maker raising sims,
with the added twist that the humor hits hard and dark in this one –
you will die over and over!  A lot of people have fun getting through this one,
because it’s so hard to reach a successful end, but it’s so awesome
watching your fledgling queen grow and conquer her foes LOL!
