You can also dress Cinderella in silly outfits, and she’ll have them on in cutscenes, which never gets old for a single second. It actually works well for sheer entertainment value, backed up by some cool camera angles and manga style effects for cutscenes. There’s also a lot of comedic characterization, like Snow White being a gothic lolita idol who dotes over her magic doll boyfriend like a high school girl. The story is a bizarre mishmash of genuine serious drama based around identity, xenophobia, and family and Cinderella being an airhead that even the game admits is mainly there to be eye candy. She also has to find and reunite Snow White with her mother, finding herself involved in a tragic tale of these homunculi trying to become human to be with the ones they love.
Things get complicated, though, as Cinderella’s quest for the magic mirr-oh, uh, “mirror of truth” is derailed a tad by an uprising of magical doll people, supposedly being led by Pinocchio himself. Her fairy godmother has different plans for her, though, bringing her back to life (maybe sorta, never really explained) to reveal that the prince was the true murderer of the king. The story this go picks up from the true ending of the last game, where Cinderella was executed for the murder of her family and the king.
