How to play


Welcome to the Doki doki survival world~  !
See ABOUT THE GAME first ! ♥

Here’s the world where you can interact with your favorite prince~ 

How to play ?
Please follow me ;-)

Press with the stylus on the right screen !

You should have this screen once you’ve start the game :)
I translated the buttons, but it should be the Japanese screen :

Let me explain you each of the following options :
NEW GAME – If it’s the first time you play, by clicking this option, the intro will start. If not, you’ll have this screen :
“Do you want to skip the intro ?”
Click “yes” (at the left) to skip, click “no” (at the right) to see the intro.
Inside the intro, you’ll have only one choice to do :
 
(it’s when Ryôma introduce himself to you, you’ll ask if he’s in 1st, 2nd or 3rd year. It has no effect on the future game, so go ahead and answer what you want !)
Then :

Choose your side. You have the chibi head of the guys presents in the side. Click on the girl you want.


Then, confirm it by clicking on the “yes” button (left one)


Here the next screen :


What’s on the 3 buttons in grey ? 

Put your name by clicking on the hiragana table. Several kanji will appear on the screen, like this :
(If you want the heroine default name, just click on the “OK” button, the corresponding kanji will be add automatically; then, for the pronunciation, put the following hiragana : こひなた つぐみ (Kohinata Tsugumi; yama side) or つじもと あやか (Tsujimoto Ayaka; umi side)


Select the right pronunciation on the right screen for the name…


Do the same thing for the surname !


Let’s continue with your birthday date :
(the birthday date on the screen is mine, don’t pay attention to it XD)
The blue part is for the month, the orange part is for the day ! :3 (I didn’t understand for what it asked that, but anyway… XD)

Click on “OK”, confirm that all is alright (button in gold on the photo)...
... and you can start to play !! ヽ(*≧ω≦)ノ

At the end of a day – screen 

You have this screen at each end of day~

Here's the translated version :

Feel free to explore these buttons to know what they are all about~ ! (─‿‿─)

CONTINUE (load) – To continue the game where you saved it last time :



OPTIONS – To set up the game



EXTRA –
Where you can find the CGs that you unlocked and a lot of other things


Here’s the menu. 

I’ve translated the buttons, but you should have the Japanese screen, like this :


Let me explain you each of the options !

CG gallery – Where you can find the CGs that you unlocked for each character.




Sounds mode – Where you can listen to the “OST” of the game !



Mini-drama mode – Where you can choose a character, a background and a line that he’ll tell you ! (it’s not that interesting but if you want me to explain you that mode, feel free to ask ! =o)


Mini-games – Where you can replay the mini-games !



Alarm lock – Where you can set an alarm lock and the character that you chose will come to wake you up !


Password – Where you can type a password (that you can find here) and unlock lines from a characters ! (Uhm, I never tried it so I can’t tell you if it actually works or not XD)


Now that you can use that menu, let’s take a proper look to the little menu, down the screen !
Do you see it ? :3
 

(Yep, I’m talking about these green, blue and pink buttons right here !)




By clicking these buttons, you’ll see the chibi heads of the guys you got the heart ending ! :3 



See ? :p Magical huh ? 8D /slap

I hope that this page helped you, even if it's a little bit ! :3 If you have any questions, feel free to ask ! ^__^

    1. When you're speaking to a guy, you have some "key topics / keywords" according to what they were saying to you; the next time you're seeing that guy, you're getting to speak of that topic :)

      (it's been a while since I didn't play any route actually, I may be too focused on Gakupuri's functioning.... maybe ;__; I think that the topic comes automatically, on the contrary of Dokupuri...)

      Thank for asking, I hope that my explaination was correct and understandable :)

  2. Whoa, I just discovered this place ... thank you very much for your hard work, really! I've tried to play DokiPuri before, but I easily got frustrated because I can't understand japanese at all so this place is like heaven for me. Finally I can get something made. :)

    By the way, I have a question!
    Are you planning, in the future, to work with a rom hacker to make an english patch for that game? Just asking, because I actually tried also the english-translation of GakuPuri DS and ... it's surely great to be able to play the game in english and to understand it, eheh. x3
    Wish I was good with translating and coding ... I would love to be able to do something like that as well ...
    Anyways, thank you very much once again! <3

    Ps: sorry for my bad english ... it's not my mother language as well. ;_;

      Don't worry about it, your English is good ! (─‿‿─)

  3. Such a nice project! I really hope someday we'll have a patched translated version since I'd really like to fully enjoy the game, but it's already very much! Thank you!

    1. Apparently the link is just for the rom and the said patch doesn't work as I can read it on the comments... Plus, this website have a lot of pop-ups coming up so there's a possibility this website isn't safe for the computer as it can possibly contain some kind of virus.

      Thanks anyway.

  6. Hello, I'm new to this but can I have at least the instructions for the fishing minigame?

    1. Hello, sorry for the late answer ! >o<
      Concerning the fishing game, it's really simple; I didn't know how to play it myself but eventually figured it out haha XD

      When the game starts, you have to press the stylus in the river, and that's when your fishing rod appears; then you'll see the fishs in the river. You can move your rod when you see a big fish. Keep attention at not releasing your stylus until you hear the sound of a fish actually eating what's on your rod ! At that time, you can release your stylus and it'll do as if you're retiring the rod from the river ^^

      I hope this will be understandable :) Feel free to ask again if something's unclear ! :)

    1. Hello ! :)
      You can easily find it on Google by typing "prince of tennis doki doki survival rom" and as for the emulator, I'm using DesMuME ! :) (if you have some difficulties to use it, check out this page => http://dokipuri-guide.blogspot.fr/p/blog-page_28.html )

  11. Thanks for the guide!
    I'm so happy to see that you are still updating it!

    I have a question: On the map screen, when you can choose who you're going to interact with, there is a small yellow face on the bottom... When you click over it, a "speech bubble" appears, but nothing else happens. Do you know what it is? Maybe it's related to the microphone? (I can read katana and hiragana, so I know there's some kind of "microphone test" on the configuration menu).

    1. Hello !! o/
      Yes we still are, don't worry about it hihi ^^

      Yep, indeed that's the sign of the microphone ! On certain screens you can call the guy you want and they'll come to you. Natsu tried it before she left the blog, and I remember she told me that according to your intonation, this may work or not haha. You can try it out by keeping your stylus (or mouse) on the sign and speak at the same time ! :)
