SBPR was crippled by bad coding
The gameplay wasnt good either.
A big empty map, and when you wanted to level up friendship witha girl you needed to find an item somewhere at the end of the world, which meant that you needed to walk around for a long time searching.
The "Combat" was useless, the clothes much more limited than nowadays.
a few minigames, lots of walking around, then prostituting your girls in the hotel to generate money.
boring, AIS is miles ahead of this.
whose better part is guess what? The free ecchi mode. At least with these games you could go doing directly what you wanted.
From comments in this thread, this game too has Free H, it is just not a button in the menu?
Too much to do for a scene selector, not enough and too restricted for a KK/ai-shojo/AA kind of game.
KK games are also "nothing to do".
pretty much you just grind relationship by clicking three buttons, and then run around on a dead map, every once in a while one of the girls wants sum fuk - meh, these games are actually the closest to SBPR in terms of gameplay.

Lets face it:
The stuff illusion makes usually sucks big time.
Yes, this game sucks in its own way, but at least it is not another of the scene selectors, of which we already have so many: HS, HS2, PH, PC, SB2, SB3, RK and so on.
I just hope they make an AIS2 based on the improvements in here. (in a year... after Kokatsu "3", that again lacks parts of the previous games...)
FFS, I wouldnt even mind a AA3 based on KK... in the end, illusion made "AG4" too, so what - *inhales copium*
