- Dazzling Pastel World: characters and artwork painted expertly to showcase a dreamy world of romance and magic.
- Magical Mini Games: where players can recover Emma’s magic through a game mechanic called the Éveil System.
- An Unforgettable Tale: weaving a sweet and touching tale that is also tinged with sadness.
PQube describes the game as:
Orphaned at a young age and traumatised by a supposed drowning incident, Emma has lost her early memories and her magical powers as a witch. Living in Blancbourg with the family that took her in, Emma finds herself captivated by news of a travelling amusement park in town. Encouraged by the merry-go-round memento her father left her, Emma is swept away on an unexpected adventure.
Emma meets Hugo, the parks Director, who wants her to use her dormant magical powers to help him and the other attendants of the park break free of a mysterious curse which chains them to the park. By working alongside them while training to awaken her powers, Emma is taken on a journey of friendship, romance, and self-discovery across multiple character routes.
With its gorgeously subdued artwork radiating warmth and romance, Genso Manège is a dream-like otome fantasy with an outstanding visual power. Expertly crafted characters and a bright pastel color-palette create a dreamy picture of romance and magic that evokes the fantastical journey that the reader will be taken on.With mini-games through the Éveil System and character choices to guide you, players will be transported through a tale that is sweet and touching, with a hint of sadness.
