The soundtrack CD will also include exclusive CD-ROM content in the form of Rule of Rose wallpapers, music sheets, and a promotional video which debuted at the 2006 Electronic Entertainment Expo. Check below for a long trailer and the game’s storyline.
Developed in Japan by Punchline and Shirogumi, and published in Japan by Sony Computer Entertainment Inc., Rule of Rose is scheduled for release in September 12, 2006.
The story takes place in the England in 1930, the protagonist Jennifer is a 19 year old girl, who missed her last bus at night in the park. She encountered a mysterious boy, who only she can see. The boy handed her a picture book “Little Princess” and ran away, she follows him to a mansion, and is then captured by a bunch of arrogant, mean young girls called the Aristrocracy of the Red Crayon, who threaten Jennifer’s life. You must escape from the mansion before getting killed.
Before watching the trailer, please be aware you need to be at least 18 years old. The Japanese release of the game was met with some criticism because the young girls in the game are depicted a little risqué. The game director Shuji Ishikawa explains it best: “It’s children being children without the filter of guilt or sin.”
I think it’s just a twisted horror game, but see for yourself and listen to some of the music you’ll be getting with the pre-order bonus. Here’s the first English trailer:
