Vazurea Studio Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 (edited) Speaking from experience, some Japanese visual novels since the 90s to 00s such as True Love to Amagami had these kind of mechanisms. At its early developments, it was obnoxious and unnecessarily long. It was after Playstation's Tokimeki Memorial that the mechanism gets really even more polished and rewarding to play. *hint, hint. It's usually the "academically intelligent girl" route. of course, company policy's disclaimer: This reply is in no way reflecting the whole studio's opinion, as it was written by the PR guy alone with his working laptop.

Unrelated to the thread, but I think putting that last part in a signature would save you some trouble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Akshay Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 (edited) Yes. In Majikoi, to achieve the good ending for Momoyo you need to have gotten good grades. There is actually a set of questions (Quiz) that you need to answer, and if you don't get them right (do well in the exams/get good grades) your confession will be rejected regardless of your other choices during the route.

Darklord Rooke Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Usually games where grades are important are dating sims rather than VNs. Mainly because a school grade is a "stat" and dating sims focus more on raising stats than VNs. You might get one or two VNs where grades are important, but you'd have more luck with dating sim games imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Okarin Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Strict dating "sims", with stats that you have to raise in order to pass exams. I played one to the true ending, and it burned me out forever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plk_Lesiak Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 (edited) Gaokao Love 100 Days is not precisely about grades, but it's main goal is both to get a girlfriend and not fail the after-high-school exam that will more or less determine your future. It has only two heroines, but a huge amount of endings depending how you do on each front. But like people have said already, everything that put an emphasis on grades will most likely be considered a "dating sim". Not a genre divide I would really care about, but I guess people like to stress it because of how many absolute-shit dating sims there are.
