The Princess guide, where do I begin? At first thought I thought it be a sort of game where you command the princess as it auto-battles, which sounded interesting, but when I actually played it's a beat-em-up. It's not all too bad, but let's actually get into the game... It's a beat-em-up that takes place in a world full of kingdoms, and you can select one of four princesses to start with, and you'll end up playing all of them by the end, and then a last campaign of the first one you selected. The gameplay is mindless, boring, repetitive. You play as a knight (yourself), the princess, or a random unit assigned as leader. Oh, and you lose these units after beating a single campaign, so there's pretty much no point. It has simple commands, strong hit, normal, blah blah blah, but the normal hit is pretty much the only one that matters since the heavy one only does like 5 more damage. You have small minions follow you which you use to attack that can level up, but they die so easily and are perma-dead, so that also doesn't matter either. The enemies for the most part are simple, and there's traps which you can control with your minions, and they're actually kind of neat, taking control of enemies traps in a beat-em-up isn't bad. But no enemies or bosses ever stand out. The levels are rather generic and nothing looks-wise. Outside of battle, there's a map with badly explained side-quest that I still hadn't figured out,. Apparently there's level skills you can give to each princess that level up, but i'm still so confused on how you level them up I didn't bother. There's stories with dialogue that hardly matters, oh and you can change how your character interacts with the princesses, one of the options being "pervy", but I genuinely only saw two changed dialogue when I looked for it. The graphics and lighting are actually quite nice at times. Overall, the game is a bit bland, boring, confusing yet easy, and unmemorable. Not awful as I found some enjoyment out of it, but I like playing bad games, so take it with a grain of salt.

The story of The Princess Guide is well done and the praise/scold feature is an interesting twist on how you interact with the different princesses to unlock different bonuses. The game is deceptively deep with the amount of different attacks, weapons, and squad building options. This may seem pretty intimidating at first, but after a few rounds you’ll find yourself picking up on the mechanics pretty quickly. The game is reminiscent of arcade-style games like Gauntlet, so if you like arcade style games with RPG aspects, this game would be up your alley.
