Power Dolls

Little is known in the West about the POWER DoLLS series, apart from it being an obscure turn-based tactical strategy game developed and published in Japan mainly by Kogado Software Products, currently the internal development branch of Kogado Studio (whose original foundation traces back to 1916 when it was named Design and Prints Tani Kogado and then re-established as Kogado Studio in 1960, mainly focusing on graphic design). The company, currently led by the President and CEO Ippei Tani, started researching about video games around 1982 after having witnessed major hits like Nintendo Game & Watch or similar works done by Tomy or Bandai. In the following year they published their first video game ever, the PC-88 game Slot Crazy (thus becoming one of the few companies at that time who were PC developers, alongside Nihon Falcom and Koei), and then continued until today in producing software, mainly visual novels like Symphonic Rain or Tristia of the Deep-Blue Sea but also RPGs like the Sequence Palladium series or strategy games like our POWER DoLLS.

A somewhat spontaneous attempt to replicate the PC-98 art style. I fucking swear, video games have never looked better than on that system.

Cool!

I would have liked the bad men who appeared to be E. A. Poe, Shakespeare, Jules Verne, Ray Bradbury, Charles Dickens, Mark Twain, R. L. Stevenson, Lovecraft, H. G. Wells, Victor Hugo, Bram Stoker and other male writers of fantasy, science fiction and gothic fiction.

I captured this still from a Power DoLLS trailer because of the tremendously awkward wording.  “Oneself blast system on” means “self destruct system activated.”

One time in grade 11 band class I let a girl go through my iPod and she started laughing and I was like "What's funny" and she read out loud, "Papa Roach, Breaking Benjamin, MCR, Get Scared, Marilyn Manson, Nine Inch Nails... and then fuckign Pussycat Dolls?!"

And I'm never gonna forget that
