Title: Kudos - indie relationship simulator
Post by: jrd on 2006 September 29, 15:34:22
I found a new addiction in an Indie game called ‘Kudos’: http://www.kudosgame.com/

Played it for hours yesterday after buying it :)

It is a relationship simulator, and remarkably addictive.

These reviews I agree with:

It's more of a strategy game than a Sims ripoff. The only games I know which are close to it is the old Alternate Life C64 game, or the Jap game Princess Maker.

I pwned Princess Maker 2, too. Predictably, I went about it all wrong, sending her off into the woods with a big stick and shouting, "NOW GO! AND KILL GRUESOMELY IN MY NAME!" Not unpredictably, this is how I'd raise real spawn, too.

I loved princess maker 2, although I always ended up with really robust hero type girls with 999 constitution, 999 strength and 0 charisma.  :-\

I tended to end up with warrior princesses also, but I also maxed out charisma.

I never maxed out charisma with any of mine, it's kind of worthless to develop in the English version since the social endings are borked.  I guess you'd need it for Princess of Darkness or S&M Queen though.  However for most purposes, you're better off Maxing Sensitivity.

What exactly did Strength do?  I've noticed that it doesn't increase attack power at all, and I especially noticed this when I had a Princess with both Combat Defense and Attack maxed owning in the tournament with very little strength.
