Gameplay
[edit]The gameplay of Suzunone Seven offers branching plot lines and a multi-choice navigation. The player assumes the role of Yukimura Kido, who is the main protagonist of the game. Kido can end up with any of the four heroines presented in the game, and in the PC version of the game, he may sexually interact with the heroines, unlike in the all ages version. The four datable heroines are Nonomura Nino, Takatori Yuzuri, Mitsumine Minato, and Daikanyama Sumire. Most time spent playing the game is spent simply reading dialogue and inner thoughts of Kido in the text box on the bottom of the screen.
Plot
[edit]The story of Suzunone Seven! takes place in a world where magic is established as one of the energies. There is a prestige school called Suzunone Magic School, which has many talented pupils capable of magic, however, there are also dropout students, and the worst seven students are forced to contribute to a studying camp called the Suzunone Trial. There, they will take exams and whoever does the worst will be expelled from school.
