Game Synopsis
«©NCSX»
Targeted at girl gamers, the second Prince of Tennis
Doki Doki Survival game in as many months moves from
the mountain setting in the first game to the
seashore. At the outset, the heroine is aboard a
ship with 40 Prince of Tennis characters. The first
scene takes place in the dining room where some of
the boys introduce themselves but everyone
eventually retires to their rooms. Sometime in the
night, a massive storm causes a little bit of panic
but the crew eventually guides the ship onto land
and the characters regain their footing.
Although the game features 40 tennis players, only 20 of the boys
are fair game for love and romance. The scenario
length for each character is lengthier than in the
original DokiDoki game so there's more time to enjoy
special moments and view magical screenshots. Or
something to that effect. The aim of the game is
procuring a love confession from one of the toys and
then watching the happy ending. To add to the
atmosphere of being inside the world of Tennis no
Oji-sama, the voice actors from the animation series
were hired to provide the copious amounts of speech
in the game. Everyone talks except for the heroine
who has dialogue but her voice is silent to maintain
the illusion of you being her... even though she has
blue hair, gray eyes, and a lime-green smock.

Game Notes
» In the intro to the game, a white hot sun
sparkles followed by Konami text and the game logo.
The camera pans downwards before capturing a seaside
location and characters from Hyotei, Sekigaku,
Rikkai University, and St Rudolph appear in static
poses and fast flick-action artwork shots. The title
screen shows a lighthouse behind the POT logo.
» Press START and the following options appear:
NEW GAME
Enter your name in Katakana or English and then
enter your birth date. Approve your selection and
the game starts off on a cruise ship. Inside the
dining hall, you're greeted by a deep-voiced guy in
a grey suit and purple handkerchief in his suit
breast pocket. The various POT boys appear in front
of you saying various things. After some
introductions, someone snaps their fingers and the
murmur in the background disappears. The scene shows
a guy on stage with a spotlight on him and he speaks
into a mic to welcome the crowd. He lifts up a glass
and bellows, "Kanpai!" After his toast, the scene
returns to normal and more boys from different teams
come up to greet you.

» All of the boy dialogue in the game is spoken and
the boys wear their school uniforms with logos and
colors. Your character's voice is not spoken however
when she appears on screen with the characters side
by side to preserve the illusion of you being
there... even though the girl looks nothing like
you. She sports blue-hair, fair skin, and big grey
eyes. She also wears a lime green jacket and blinks
her eyes a lot.
» Later in the command room, a slouchy kind of guy
talks to the ship's captain followed by a
rough-looking woman with lines on her face. Later
that night, a roiling sea and heavy rain buffet the
ship. Inside, the heroine and her female friend
commiserate because of the poor conditions outside.
A big crash sounds off in the distance and the
lights go out temporarily. The two are standing in a
room and hear rough noises from the outside as the
storm intensifies. The room shakes and the lights go
out again. The door bursts open and a boy in brown
hair and a red vest bursts in and offers his hand.
Another boy exclaims from behind and they talk.
» Scene shift - scrolling text explains the
ship's predicament against a static background of
black seas, waves, and rain. The date is July 28 as
the game starts and seagulls are heard in the
distance. The player wakes up and is greeted by the
boy who gave the toast and her friend. Despite the
overnight trouble, the passengers have all made it
to land and are standing on a beach while waves
crash gently in the background.
» After a while, the cast goes exploring and find a
large wood cabin. Some of the boys led by Kunimitsu
Tezuka enter the cabin and discover it deserted.
They commiserate inside to plan their next course of
action. They eventually enter the camp area where
cabins and facilities are spread through a few acres
of land.
» The world map shows an overhead view of the local
area and players may select a boy from a list to go
and visit in a locale and interact. After
interacting with a guy, a heart appears if he likes
you. There are six main locations on the map. As you
select each one, little faces of the boys at that
location will appear. Up to five boys may be at a
location at the same time and if you select that
location, you can further choose which boy to meet
up with. Its up to you to try to hook up with one of
them while you're on the island.
» The game time alternates between day and night.
When night falls, the buildings are shown on the map
with light pouring from the windows. When meeting a
boy for some one-on-one time, a dream-like screen
sequence appears which seems cheesy. After the first
day and a chat with friend Sakuno Ryuzaki, you end
up in your room and are given the chance to save
your progress to memory card. The other options are:
