INTRODUCTION =--=-=-=-=--=---===-=-=--=-=-==-=-=-=--=-==--==---=-==-=-=-==--=-=-=-=-=-==--== Something's not right at the prestigious Amamiya Private School. For years, the Amamiya family has overseen the institution, working hard to help girls mature into refined young ladies. But now the students are disappearing. Perhaps they're just running away; with all the pressure placed upon them here, it could be possible... However, its up to the JES to find out what's really going on at the school. This organization is in charge of running investigations within private schools; in fact, several of its agents have already gone undercover at the school. All are now missing. Yuichi Sakuma is the JES's latest plant. Will he be able to discover the reason for the turmoil at Amamiya Private School, or will he end up just like the others? Love Potion is a menu-driven adventure game. You play from Yuichi's perspective, leading him in his investigation. Your main duty will be to guide Yuichi aroundt the school, looking in all the right places for clues to unravel the mystery. Exactly what is going on at this posh private girls' school? Play to find out! =--=-=-=-=--===---=-==-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==--==--===-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=--==- ii.

CHARACTERS =-=-==--=-=-=-==-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-==-=--=-=-==--==--==-=-=-==-==--===-=-=--=--- Yuichi Sakuma ------------- I don't really know what Sakuma's superiors at the JES were thinking when giving him this assignment. Sure, he's a sharp enough investigator, but he really just can't seem to control himself around the opposite sex. In his current situation, where its not apparent who's trustworthy, Yuichi's weakness could mean his downfall. Toshiko Amamiya --------------- Ms. Amamiya is the principal of the school which bears her family name. She carries herself in a professional manner, bordering on uptight, but her demeanor is smoothed by a graceful air. Her youthful appearance makes it hard to believe she has a daughter old enough to attend the school. Megumi Sasaki ------------- Agent Sasaki was Yuichi's immediate predecessor at the Amamiya School. The fact that this capable agent suddenly disappeared means the situation at the school may be deadly serious. Hiromi Matsuno -------------- Hiromi is cute, energetic, and generally happy. She's usually enjoys talking with Yuichi, but at times it seems as if she's troubled. Will this student be able to trust and confide in him? Sayuri Amamiya -------------- Sayuri is the model daughter and student. She's at the top of her class, the student body president, and basically the pentultimate model for everyone at the school. Can she really be so perfect? Yumiko Mizukami --------------- Yumiko may have a great body, but it's a total mismatch to her boyish personality. She openly displays her hostility towards Professor Sakuma. Does that mean she has something to hide? Yoko Kawano ----------- Yoko doesn't seem to have a personality of her own; she's basically Sayuri's lackey, going to great lengths to please the girl. Noriko Furima ------------- Noriko is just a first year student at the school, so she's not in Yuichi's class. She's always active in the gym after school, although she doesn't seem to belong to any particular club. Talking to her can be infuriating, as she's somewhat immature and always silly. Shizuka Iijima -------------- Ms. Iijima is the school nurse, and like any good bishoujo game nurse, she's sexy as hell and not afraid to show it. Everytime she sees Yuichi, she just can't control herself. Whether that's good or bad is up to personal opinion. Kyoko Himura ------------ This student seems to be a quiet loner. Yuichi sometimes catches her staring at him, and he never sees her with other girls. Her intentions are unknown, maybe she just has a crush on him? -=-=-==-=-=---==-=----=-=-==-=--==-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--==-=-=--= iv. WALKTHROUGH =-=-=-=--=-==-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-==-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-==-=-==-==-=-==-=-===--= Love Potion is a strictly linear game. You can't lose, and none of the decisions you make affect the outcome of the story. Basically, your purpose is to guide "Professor" Sakuma around the school, triggering the requisite events to move the story along. Why do you need a walkthrough, then? Easy, you don't. In fact, its probably more fun playing through the game by yourself, not knowing what's going to happen next. I would heartily recommend playing that way, and I can understand if no one ever uses this walkthrough. However, just because the game is linear doesn't mean its not frustrating. You can spend minutes going to the different locations in the school, swearing that you've done everything possible to move the action along, and nothing happens. This guide attempts to keep those situations to a minimum, telling you where to go and what choices you need to make in order to advance the plot. It leaves out any extraneous action, so if you want to read all the innocuous minutia the game offers, do that before fulfilling the requirements for advancement. So, if you're playing through the game for a fifth time and want to move quickly, or you have a short attention span, or you're just plain lazy or impatient; you should find this document useful. ___________ | | |-------------------------------| Day 1 |---------------------------------| | |___________| | ________________________ \In front of the gate\ Look at the school campus - 3 times Look around - 3 times Ask a nearby student - 3 times Look around - Once Look at the student - 3 times Talk to the student - Twice Think for a moment - Twice Go home - Twice Run to the principal's office - Once ________________________ \Meet the principal\ Look at the principal - Twice Talk to the principal - Four times Change the subject - Once ________________________ \In the faculty room\ Think about the principal - Three times Think about Amamiya School - Twice Think about today's class - Three times Move->To the classroom ______________________________ \In front of the classroom\ I know I saw her somewhere - Once Look at Hiromi Matsuno - Three times Talk to Hiromi Matsuno - Three times Ask about Megumi Sasaki - Twice Look at Hiromi Matsuno - Twice Ask about Megumi Sasaki - Twice Move->Go to the faculty room Look at the student - Four times Talk to the student - Four times ________________________ \In the faculty room\ Think about Hiromi Matsuno - Twice Think about Megumi Sasaki - Three times Think about Yumiko Mizukami - Three times Think about Hiromi Matsuno - Once Move->Go to the principal's office ______________________________ \In the principal's office\ Look at Toshiko Amamiya - Three times Talk to Toshiko Amamiya - Twice Confess love to the principal - Three times Jump the principal - Three times Leave the principal's office ________________________ \In the faculty room\ Move->Go to the classroom Move->Go up to the roof Look around - Twice Move->Go to the classroom Move->Go to the faculty room Move->Go in front of the school gate Look around - Three times Move->Go to the principal's office Talk to Toshiko Amamiya - Three times Move->Go to the faculty room Think - Once Move->Go to the classroom Look around - Three times Move->Go up to the roof _________________________ \On the roof\ Look around - Twice Listen carefully - Three times Go towards where I heard the voices Leave About the missing students?
