Dungeon crawling JRPG where you create star children with partners to build a battle team. The class system feels enjoyable and the soundtrack warm, but the awkward tone and procedurally built dungeons wear thin over time.

Conception II - Children of the Seven Stars (3DS) price, value & rarity
A dungeon JRPG from Spike Chunsoft built on its classmating system and openly light tone, also released on Vita. On 3DS, its limited run and niche audience sustain a modest but stable value among fans of late-generation JRPGs. The appeal lies in its unabashed identity and relative scarcity on shelves rather than in front-rank rarity.
A questionable morality
Beneath its high-school-comedy surface, the game rests on a dizzying idea: to restock the army meant to save the world, you court your classmates so as to conceive "Star Children" with them, promptly shipped off to battle. Dressed up as a cute ritual, the whole thing amounts to manufacturing toddler-soldiers, which you accept without a blink between two flirting scenes.
