Madou Monogatari Big Kindergarten Kids (InstanceTopic, 18)

From Compile Worlds

Madou Monogatari Big Kindergarten Kids, also known by it's equally lengthy Japanese name Madou Monogatari Hanamaru Daiyouchienji, is the only Super Nintendo entry in the Madou Monogatari series. Much like Madou Monogatari I, it is in essence basically yet another retelling of the first story in Madou Monogatari 1-2-3. In case you actually don't know this by now, that means it's about 5-year-old Arle Nadja graduating from Magical Kindergarten by completing a quest no ten year old Pokémon Trainer has even dare attempted. While Camus and Lala aren't involved, the mechanics of the game stay closer to the PC98 games, albeit with cute, picture-based menus, and the story itself is quite a departure from the generic "climb the tower" plot seen in most tellings of the tale. In fact, it features some of the most varied locations seen in the RPG games, other than Madou Monogatari Saturn. It also mainly uses sprites and voice clips from the SNES versions of Puyo Puyo TSU, which were considered the "deluxe" edition at the time, even though we all know the PSX version that would come later is the best. As a consolation though, you can see Draco Centauros and Satan cameoing and making more of Satan's Silly Plans™.
