Charm School

This game is a more or less traditional quest, with exercises for developing management skills along the way. In Charm School, you take the role of a wizard training three girls in magic spells, wizardry, and spirituality. Though the girls are willing to work and obey, they are still kids. You have to maintain their stamina and happiness levels to make them continue studies and not die or run away. Each game-month, you choose a girl and a mission in which she can earn gold for her schooling. One of the girls excels at fighting, another is smart, and the third makes good spells and potions. Missions include a dungeon quest, a strangely challenging bug hunt, and being a waitress in the school's cafe. The registered version adds a rabbit-run mission and, more importantly, allows you to save your progress. The graphics of the game are primitive but cute, as is the MIDI-quality medieval-inspired soundtrack. Young children may enjoy Charm School's simple controls and achievable goals.
