I want to try and expand my games area so let's review more.
Starting life as a PlayStation title brought back to life on the Nintendo Switch, Princess Maker Go! Go! Princess is a Mario Party style game spun off from the original Princess Maker games Life RPG Simulator.
Pros
Easy to play.
All the characters are charming.
Has some really interesting quests.
Endings are the best part.
The game can be generous.
Cons
Difficult to know which stats trigger what ending nor does it really explain all of them.
Because it relies on precise space numbers, there are many areas on the map where you go in circles before completing a quest.
If you picked your starting stats poorly, it could easily put you at an early disadvantage.
You'll easily be screwed over by random events and enemy encounters just as much as receiving good events.
All the endings for 2nd and 3rd are actually better than being the princess and obviously last place.
Overall
It's a cute game and an easier introduction into the Princess Maker series than the normal series.

Sakura Wars is back! Let's celebrate with a top ten. This doesn't include the newly released game in an effort to avoid spoilers.
10. Ikki Yoneda
I never said they had to be mech pilots. Ikki acts as the main commander having served in the last war and becomes a good surrogate Dad to Sakura when she struggles to fit in with the Troupe. He's also a happy drunk.
9. Kanna Kirishima
There are very few pure female fighter types and Kanna is by far the best example of this, her voice is also Monkey D Luffy who acts as a better Luffy than the actual Luffy.
8. Iris Chateaubriand
I'm normally put off by pint sized brats but she manages to make herself endearing enough to avoid being annoying, also her older form is one of the most beautiful looking anime characters ever drawn.
7. Maria Tachibana
A complex character with a number of quirks that makes her more than just the stoic one. You can probably do one OVA on her past alone.
6. Gemini Sunrise
The American Troupe was a low point but Gemini was the standout success being the perfect fusion of Japanese and American culture in her design without being a stereotype.
5. Ichiro Ohgami
You can call him a harem protagonist all you want but he's actually one of the best ones actually putting his job before his romance and lewd acts.
4. Lobelia Carlini
The only character you can easily call a reformed villain but what makes her special is her presence and how she was recruited for the Paris Troupe, pure Bad Ass.
3. Sakura Shinguji
She's the very embodiment of the name Sakura, wholesome, polite, never gives up and full of unique quirks with an iconic design. Also very likely now a villain.
2. Sumire Kanzaki
Without her we have no Sakura Wars, a top ranking star and Ojou-Sama and the biggest key player in all the events of the franchise from the creation of the Koubu to her retirement which actually canonically brought her back into the new game to kick start the new events.
1. Erica Fontaine
But I go with my heart on this one, she's best waifu by virtue of being really adorable, I would love a Good Morning Dance from Erica.
