Throughout the Rakenzarn games, players have the option to romance a few select girls through interaction and/or dates.
By doing so, it offers unique rewards and affects the outcomes near the end of each game depending on the girl and the relationship status.
Features[]
Each game has different requirements to gain the girl's interest. The most common condition all Rakenzarn games share is through interactions in varying dialogue trees. Some conditions are simple such as choosing the right replies in conversations but some are difficult to achieve.
Once the girl the player chooses has gained a romantic interest, the relationship level will be established.
Rakenzarn Tales[]
In pre-version 4, players can increase their relationship level by presenting their partner with gifts or give proper answers in conversations during cutscenes. The better the gifts, the better the level increases and vice versa. At certain points, players will be engaged in different events (some consist of characters interacting with one another and some consist of fights), which ends with the relationship increasing to the next level.
In Version 4, a similar, simplified system is used. With the addition of the Affinity feature, it's all down to simple choices to raise their Affinity. The potential romance ladies have a hidden gauge that establishes their affection toward the protagonist; choosing the best options will raise the hidden gauge even higher. Reaching the max hidden gauge will fully open the option to romance her. Once their Affinity has reached its max, a final scenario will occur and that is where the option occurs: either the player confesses their feelings or stays as friends.
Both versions reward players with different goods whether they're rare items and equipment, more stat boosts, or new moves. Players can date multiple girls and gain the benefits from each of them. However, if they choose to increase their romantic relationship with one girl to the maximum, the relationship will become exclusive and they will be locked out of dating the other girls any further.
Rakenzarn: Frontier Story[]
Its function is similar to Rakenzarn Tales. Players interact with the potential romance options through their friendship events with a similar hidden gauge.
