One day, you meet a girl that looks like a dead ringer of the mysterious woman that's been plaguing your dreams recently.
Chance, fate, or just dumb luck, it makes you feel like you just might have a chance to make your wish come true.
The game's story follows the events in the year and ends on the Christmas Eve, hopefully with the girl of your dreams right by your side.
Two main gameplay modes in the game are simulation and adventure mode.
Adventure mode is similar to visual novels but with much more choices to select during conversations with your buddies or the girl you're on a date with.
Additionally, you can use the city map to visit various different locations.
The simulation mode consists of part-time job where you get to earn some money, spending time alone with a hobby of your choice, playing with your friends, or taking a girl to a date.
The obvious girl of your choice features Tomomi Sakura, the girl from your campus, Ran Yuuki, your childhood friend, and Shouko Takamiya, a working woman.
About PlayStation
The original PlayStation (1994) brought CD-based gaming and 3D graphics to the mainstream, ending Nintendo's console dominance of the previous two generations. It's now firmly in "retro collecting" territory: original jewel cases with intact manuals command a real premium over disc-only copies, and several RPGs from its later years (when Sony deliberately courted the genre) are among the most expensive commonly-collected games from the era.
Gamevaro tracks Refrain Love: Anata ni Aitai for PlayStation 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 Refrain Love: Anata ni Aitai 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 PS1 release dates back to 1997.
