Star Platinum

A girl up in the skies was training at a temple to be a goddess’ successor. One day, the goddess had to leave the shrine to attend a meeting of the gods, leaving the girl alone at the shrine. The goddess told her not to open the box of star-souls within the shrine. Naturally, after the goddess had left, the girl’s curiosity got the best of her, and she opened the box.

The star-souls escaped, transformed the girl into a tiny fairy, and fled to Earth. She must track down and capture the star-souls that are causing havoc on Earth before the goddess returns to the shrine. However, while chasing several of the star-souls through the sky, the girl crashes into the window of a young guy who lives on Earth. She determines that since he can see her, he’ll assist her out, and the two of them set out on their trip.

Star Platinum is an erotic visual novel that also functions as a basic card game. The player reads the story as it progresses, with still images of the events as they occur. When a character in need of exorcism is encountered, the game transitions to battle mode. In battle mode, the player and machine take turns matching and collecting cards with different astrological symbols. If a player gathers enough cards of a specific type to form a set, he or she can attack, reducing the opponent’s health by a predetermined amount and returning the cards to their neutral state.

If the player can reduce the opponent’s health, the story will continue and the player will be rewarded with progressively pornographic photographs of the opponent (which may be viewed again via the main menu). However, if the player’s health drops, the combat must be restarted from the beginning.
