It’s been a little while since my last Steam game roundup!  Here is a selection of games I’ve discovered recently that are widely varied, but the connecting thread throughout is that they have cool or pretty art work!

As with all of my Steam recommendations, G2A is the preferred method for getting Steam keys on the cheap!  You don’t have to wait for the games to go on sale, just pick up a key from there for a couple bucks!

Littlewitch Romanesque: Editio Regia

That’s quite a title! oAo
Littlewitch Romanesque is a sim game reminiscent of Princess Maker!!
The art is sooo beautiful, and scenes play out in comic panels and speech bubbles
for a very artistic effect!

–

Audition Online

This is an MMO from the early oughts, so if you are/were a fan
of games like Mabinogi or Dream of Mirror Online,
then its visual style will look about comparable!
This is a rhythm game where you can customize a cute anime character
and compete (or cooperate) with others online!

–

Treeker: The Lost Glasses

This is a mysterious and meditative adventure/puzzle game.
I was drawn to it because I looooove the lowpoly environments –
awesome abstracted trees like those in the above screenshot
are my absolute weakness!

–

Journey of the Light

Another adventure puzzle game, this time with an overhead view
and beautiful painted natural environments!
The color scheme is cool and blue~

–

Cloudbuilt

This one is a high-paced action platformer!
The characters in the art work look so cyberpunk-y and cool!
There are some very imaginative environments for blasting through! *o*

A glamorous gyaru needs every aspect of her life to be equally fabulous, and that includes the simple clock, calendar, calculator, and ESPECIALLY camera apps on her phone!!  Opening up even simple apps like those should give you little bursts of happy, especially if you turn to them a lot!  Everyone deserves little happiness bursts. <3

DecoDentaku

A decorated calculator app with different face styles to choose from!
The previews show this pink jeweled hime decoden,
a pink sweets version, a vintage Classic Lolita print-like one,
and a jeweled blue undersea design (for you mermaids!).

–

DecoWatch

A very easy, minimal clock and alarm,
again with several border designs to choose from,
such as this rhinestone-covered sweets theme in neutral colors!

–

Deco Timer

Functions like DecoWatch, where it serves the purpose of a clock and alarm,
but this shows more information on the screen and has a wider selection of themes!
The previews show a traditional pink himedeco theme, a royal blue version,
and this kawaii pink bear + sweets border!

–

DecoCamera

Camera apps are p much mandatory!!!
There are lots of beauty cameras out there,
but only so many allow hime-styled deco,
with lace and rhinestones!

–

Princess Camera

Princess Camera is another camera option!!
I was drawn to this one for the beauty options listed on this preview –
options to add blush, lashes, and color lenses!!
And all of that in addition to all of the typical cute stamps and doodle pens~

There is such a wonderfully cute roundup of games coming out in the next handful of months before the holidays!  It’s so rare to get happy, colorful, cute games – and there are so, so many of them all happening together in such a short time!  I’m so excited seeing all of them!

*All of the release dates listed here are according to their Amazon listings as of the time of this writing – they may change!

Yoshi’s Woolly World

This was first shown at E3 some years back –
for some time it was only known as “Yarn Yoshi!”
But it’s finally coming out in the US on October 16 –
I’m so excited!  And I can’t wait to play co-op! ^o^
There are so many cute yarn Yoshi designs to unlock and play as, too!
OH!!  And there will be these adorable yarn Yoshi Amiibos!!

Pink Yarn Yoshi Amiibo

I need one!!!

Return to PopoloCrois: A Story of Seasons Fairytale

Ahhhh this looks so preciousssss!!
Story of Seasons is the current localization name for the Harvest Moon series,
so really, this has the same “Fantasy Harvest Moon” subtitle as Rune Factory!
This PopoloCrois adaptation of Story of Seasons looks like a combination
of Rune Factory and Fantasy Life – my favorite game from last year!
I’m really looking forward to it!

PopoloCrois: Story of Seasons comes out January 5, 2016!

Yo-Kai Watch

Yo-Kai Watch is an INCREDIBLE sensation in Japan,
and this is the first installment of it reaching the US!
It will be coming over along with a cartoon on TV
and toys licensed by Hasbro.
I hope it becomes very successful, because it is a wonderful world
filled with kooky Yo-Kai critters that make for an awesomely fun
little monster-collecting, RPG-battling experience!
And the girl hero that you can play as is super cute! n_n

Yo-Kai Watch comes out November 6!!

–

Moco Moco Friends

OK… LOOK AT HOW CUTE THIS IS… THIS IS INSANE!!!
Moco Moco Friends is a monster-collecting and RPG-battling game
much like Yo-Kai Watch, except your player character and all of her friends
are adorable magical witch girls, and their monsters are cuddly plushes!
Really, seriously, this is the Pokemon-like game
that I have been waiting for since the monster genre first emerged.
I can’t believe it took THIS long for a 100% cutesy version of the genre to happen.

Moco Moco Friends comes out November 17!

Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer

After New Leaf was insanely successful,
this spinoff game centered on designing cute homes for your animal neighbors

of this game to see it in action, it’s all sooo cuuuute!!

“In the Tall Grass” Grass Pokemon Skirt

I love grass Pokemon!
Such pretty flowers, and there are such cute leafy designs on this!
And the pattern on this is really pretty, it could pass
as just a floral print at a glance from non-geeky observers.

–

“Too Haute to Handle” Fire Pokemon Skirt

Fire!!!!  Pokemon!!!!
I have a personal rule to pretty much always
go with the Fire starter in every Pokemon game.
And so, I am so ecstatic to see that Cyndaquil and Torchic are on here!
Those were some of my favorites!

“Wave Riders” Water Pokemon Skirt

Okay, I kind of cheated compiling this list
and made the last three features all the Pokemon type designs, LOL.
But look at the pretty Dragonair on this!
When I look at this skirt, I hear one of the Surfing themes playing.
