What Is Magical Princess?
Magical Princess is a parenting simulation game where players step into the role of a newly widowed father raising his daughter, Alice. Set against the backdrop of a vibrant, expressive hometown, the game challenges players to guide Alice through her early school years—where every decision shapes her future.
Each choice directly influences Alice’s core stats:
- Intelligence
- Charm
- Sense
- Stamina
Encourage academic excellence and discipline for a prestigious future—or explore riskier paths that may lead to odd jobs, troublemaking, and darker discoveries within the town.
The result is a branching narrative system filled with emotional stakes and meaningful consequences.
A Story-Rich Experience with 50+ Endings
Narrative depth is where Magical Princess truly shines. The full game promises:
- Hundreds of thousands of words of story
- 700+ pages of comic-style storytelling
- 100 detailed illustrations
- 170+ date events
- 50+ possible endings
Players will interact with more than 30 unique townspeople brought to life through expressive Live2D animations. Relationships matter—and one of these characters could even become Alice’s soulmate.
With such a wide range of outcomes, Magical Princess emphasizes replayability and emotional investment in every decision.
From Board Game Roots to Digital Adventure
Magical Princess is the first digital adaptation of the Magical Series board games, which began with Magical Bakery in 2018. The series later expanded with titles like Magical Patisserie and Magical Kingdom, eventually growing into a lineup of 11 games including expansions.
Originally centered around an apprentice rising through a magical bakery in a fantasy kingdom, the series built a loyal tabletop fanbase. With Magical Princess, the franchise evolves into an interactive digital storytelling experience—bringing its charm to a global PC audience.
