Porting an ero-game to the PS2 whenever it’s the least bit successful on PC is the modus operandi of Japanese game companies. Not to be outdone by its peers, Dimple is bringing their 2006 game Under The Moon to the PS2 on June 25th 2009.

Under The Moon ~Crescent~ falls under the category of “otome games”, basically romance games aimed at a female audience, meaning you play a girl who has to woo a variety of bishies. In this game you play the role of Ashe, daughter of the King of Devils. Ashe is a pure, innocent demon girl that’s never left the demon realm before and doesn’t know much about guys. However she’s too weak magically to take over Daddy’s throne so it becomes Ashe’s accidental mission to find a potential successor and get down to some serious loving with him.

Hmm, that doesn’t look too loving to me.

Anyway, the PS2 version includes some extra events, improved CGs and a whole new scenario. Mainly you’ll be romancing the twins Lenny and Seiju, but expect some surprises in there. Under the Moon is termed an “adventure” game, which is just a fancy term for a visual novel with lots of choices. Expect a variety of endings and unlockables depending on which options you pick.
