All pretty great games. I remember sitting up late at night playing through them and enjoyed them quite a bit. I'd have to say I probably got the most mileage out of True Love with it's RPG-like stat system. I've probably played more, but I don't remember any more than that.

I remember playing a thing about being a vampire. There was the girl raised in a church, the science genius, and some other girl I can't remember too clearly but I think her thing was that she liked animals. You also got to run around at night and feed on random non-datable women. You had some jackass brothers and a super hero rival and some other random stuff to contend with while trying to find your vampire bride. Thinking back it probably wasn't nearly as good as I remember it being but I sunk a lot of time into it.

Bloody Bride(?) I think was the title.

I remember I had one that was all in moonrunes but it installed to a folder called 'watashi' and from what I could understand of it from playing a bit, instead of a guy trying to get laid you actually played as a girl.

In True Love, it's easy to level up. All you have to do is put the activity that raises the stat you want for the whole day (Morning, Noon, Evening), and eventually, a God will visit you in your dreams (Intelligence God, Appearance God, etc) and give you a huge boost in that stat.

There's the JAST USA Memorial Pack, which contains revised Windows ports of Three sisters story, Runaway City and Season of the Sakura. Anyone wanting to play one of these 3 is better of finding the JAST memorial pack, even though the MS-DOS versions are very playable with DOSBox.

But Three Sisters' Story, fuck yeah. Excellent writing and the characters really grow on you. Even the sex scenes don't feel forced or tacked on. Has some definite tear jerker moments.

The solution was to use joy to key in place of the internal joystick input because they didn't allow multiple buttons at once which is pretty crucial for a run and gun game. It also crashed occasionally and I don't know what exactly caused it.

The early V.G. games are very ponderous in their mechanics. You wont be able to follow the story, really, unless you know Japanese.

Super V.G. for the Super Famicom is okay, but again is sluggish. It's also not really Hentai. Again, knowledge of the language required for the story and not the game.

Advanced is an overhaul, and Advanced 2 is the best. The pictures for each characters story help illustrated it, but the dialog is still Japanese. Not eroge.

V.G. Custom, for the PC, has probably the best artwork, but it's only okay. It's been a while, but I don't remember anything in it but fan service.

So, stick with the old ones for the eroge. They are playable, but don't expect to understand what is going on.

I try to avoid two-timing because it can fuck you over in many games. There isn't a lot of save scumming to do in True Love since the answers are usually obvious and there's enough time to spread your activities.
Pia Carrot on the other hand gives you very little lenience and some encounters are very easy to miss and it's simple to waste an opportunity by making a phone call or going to the wrong location.
