Story
Saori witnesses sexual intercourse in a park, which inspires her to masturbate at home. Later, she dreams she is abducted by two men and sees illusions while being confined in a mansion by a female owner. In the dream, she sees many immoral sexual acts. Finally, the mansion's owner is revealed to be Saori. Saori awakes and she finds that this experience was just a dream.
Controversy
This game was stolen by a junior high school student in Kyoto Prefecture. The game gained notoriety and was deemed hazardous, leading to widespread controversy. On November 11, 1991, the president of Fairytale was apprehended on charges of indecency. This incident catalyzed video game companies to form the Ethics Organization of Computer Software.
