Game features
The game incorporates all additions from the DS versions of the first two games. New features include the 3P mode, allowing the main character to date two boys simultaneously, and the Pride vs Pride mode, where two boys in 3P mode compete for her. The Premium version adds a character named Tatsuya, updated graphics with a 2D animation system, and the Boys' Life mode, which shows super-deformed male characters interacting in their bedrooms. This is the first Girl's Side game without a Rival Mode.
Game content
The protagonist attends Habataki High School, the same school from the first game, which has new buildings and uniforms; the story begins around the time the second game's protagonist graduates. Players manage academics, club activities, and part-time work while building friendships with boys, who may declare love on graduation day. The game's legend involves primroses blessed by fairies that grant wishes. A young boy tells this story to the protagonist when she is a girl, while playing hide and seek with his brother in the primrose garden beside an abandoned church—the confession spot from the first game. On her first school day, she recognizes the boys as the Sakurai brothers. The church legend from the first game is referenced, and in Tatsuya's route in Premium, the mermaid legend from the second game also appears.
