Idaten Ikase Otoko -Kotoba de Ikasete-

Released by Family Soft in 1988, "Idaten Ikase-otoko: Kotoba de Ikasete" is a pioneer in the popular PC-8801 genre of "Adventure Quiz Bishoujo" games. The game features a unique system where players must strategically choose phrases to progress through the story and interact with characters. With its memorable title and follow-up sequel, "Ai wo Arigato: Ikase-otoko Nyumon," this game remains a notable example of the experimental and sometimes unconventional PC gaming culture in late-80s Japan.

Our protagonist, who was working on a Brazilian farm, is scouted by a traveling Korean wrestler and makes his way to Japan. As the "Ikase-otoko" (a man who aims to please), your goal is to win over various girls by choosing the right words. Players must combine three phrases to form a response and guide the conversation toward a favorable outcome. By successfully winning over specific characters, the story advances as you work your way toward meeting the ultimate heroine, Mugiko.
