I'm going to be blunt... this is yet another SofthouseChara game where the entire point of the game lies in the gameplay, which is just complex enough to be annoying.  The heroines and the protagonist are non-people, and the actual endings are boring. 

Basically, you are a new noble given a completely random amount of time to build up your lands before the King dies, which takes you to the ending.  The game system is split into building, hiring individuals of talent, fighting off threats, dealing with the factions in the capital, and dealing with the day-to-day concerns of building up your fief.

Sadly, all the stuff that should have been interesting was made boring by the fact that the game is incredibly short if you aren't fortunate enough to hire the fortuneteller regularly.  About the most interesting aspect of the game was dragging the various neutrals into the faction I liked.  You do this by essentially bribing them repeatedly until they take you seriously... which is kind of boring and time consuming.

The heroine relationships all begin from pragmatic concerns, and this means you can't really expect any romance.  Building up your lands is immensely boring after a while, and actual battles are carried out independent of your commands.

What does this mean?  It means that the game as a whole falls short of all the potential sweet spots a game like this should have sought.  The protagonist is a singularly unambitious doofus, when it would have been far more interesting if he was a man of ambition.  Battles are taken out of your control save for preparations, which makes it hard to care about them one way or the other (many of Softhouse Chara's other games make the same mistake). 

All in all, I think of this game as yet another failure amongst many such by this company...
