Princess Peach: Heir to the Toadstool

Princess Peach: Heir to the Toadstool is a role-playing life simulation game developed by Seashiba Studios and published by Nintendo. It is heavily inspired by the foreign Princess Maker series, focusing on Princess Peach's early years as the Mushroom Kingdom's ruler.
== Story ==
The player has supposedly been sent back in time by a mysterious deity to nuture Princess Toadstool after her parents have been supposedly killed for causes still unknown. The Mushroom Civil War had just ended and the Elders are too busy running the kingdom to focus on caring for the young princess, who is still developing. So, it is up to the player to determine her path themselves.
== Gameplay ==
Similar to its inspiration, you play as the parental figure to a younger Princess Peach from age 8 to 20 when she is finally able to rule on her own. Her character is determined based on a set of statistics, which are affected by setting her schedule and making decisions. This includes taking classes on certain skills, bonding with her subjects, and exploring the kingdom. These skills influence her personality, relationships, overall happiness, and ultimately determining how she'll do as a ruler.
While Peach is off taking classes or going on adventures, the player can check in and sometimes even be able to control her actions. Adventures : Platformer, RPG, and Storybook. Platformer adventures act like traditional Mario titles which last until the day ends or until the player loses all her health. RPG adventures play out like a typical JRPG which, once again, lasts until the days ends or all health is lost. Finally, storybook adventures keep the first-person perspective of the main game, determining where the story goes based on choices and Peach's current skillset. However, the statistics from RPG adventures are still kept here.
There are up to 150 days in an average playthrough, each taking usually about 10 to 50 minutes depending on how long the player makes their choices. The princess can also attend royal meetings, community services, and special events that take place on certain days, often putting the princess's skills to the test. There are 30 endings, based on the player's performance and emphasis on certain aspects of Peach's life.
For a full list of these endings, see Princess Peach: Heir to the Toadstool/Endings.
