In this episode of First Impressions, I take a look at the translated and released version of the 6 year old Chantelise. This is the second game to be brought over from Japan by English localization company Carpe Fulgar. The game follows young adventurer Elise and her older sister Chante, who has been cursed into being a fairy. The pair now travel the world searching for the witch who cursed her. It's a very anime styled game, and very traditional gameplay-wise, almost to the point of monotony. Obviously the strongest point is the witty localization done by Carpe Fulgar, but it's much more muted here than it was in Recettear, due to a smaller focus on dialogue. Overall it's not really bad, but I wouldn't really recommend it. Play Recettear instead.
