She joins a contest, the winner of which will have the privilege to marry the prince.
But in the middle of the contest, an evil sorceress bursts in and kidnaps the prince.
Now Cornet and her friends must defeat the sorceress and rescue the prince.
Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure is a Japanese-style role-playing game with humorous elements.
Cornet's party includes animated puppets and can also contain enemies who may be willing to join it after battles.
All the combatants level up automatically after having accumulated a sufficient amount of experience points.
Enemy encounters are random, and battles take place on a tactical screen, requiring the player to move characters in a turn-based fashion and attack enemies in range of the characters' weapons.
Characters also learn magic and can equip up to four different accessories instead of the traditional weapons and armor.
The world map consists of dots the player can travel to automatically, and only a small portion of it is accessible in the beginning.
Story progression is linear.
Musical performances are sometimes used as story-advancing cutscenes.
About Nintendo DS
The dual-screen, touch-enabled Nintendo DS (2004) became the best-selling handheld of all time, helped by its huge and genre-diverse library. Cartridge-based DS games have held up well physically over 20 years, and complete-in-box copies of the system's biggest sellers (Nintendogs, Pokémon, Mario Kart) remain very accessible for new collectors starting out.
Gamevaro tracks Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure for Nintendo DS with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This NDS release dates back to 2008.
