You can choose from 5 girls, each with different personalities and hobbies. What events and mini-games occur depends on the girl you choose. There are multiple branches and endings; however, all the adult content and scenes will be replaced so anyone can play it (sorry Woo. :P). The second game from NEC Interchannel is the love adventure game Angel Present. The game sports a Parallel World system, meaning that there are two worlds in the game, real and fantasy. The fantasy world and the real world are similar, but magic spells and angels exist in the fantasy world, and some characters will have a different appearance, personality, job, etc. Events that occur in one world will also affect the other world.
