A "Taishō Roman" story featuring lavish visuals, music, and voice acting, both timeless Sega Saturn masterpieces depict the battle between the Imperial Combat Revue and a great evil set in the Imperial Capital.

Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure, released in Japan as The Puppet Princess of Marl Kingdom is a tactical role-playing game for the PlayStation from Atlus USA and Nippon Ichi Software, the creators of Disgaea, and is part of the Marl Kingdom series. Rhapsody, along with its sequels, are considered musical RPGs, meaning in place of FMV cutscenes, there are musical numbers, complete with vocals. The game is also known for its "overwhelming cuteness" and low level of difficulty. Although this may make the game seem geared towards a younger audience, in Japan, the game and series in general has seen much success.

MeltyLancer: The 3rd Planet is the third and final game in the MeltyLancer series of sci-fi police simulation games. This entry features a new main cast of characters, as well as significant differences in the simulation gameplay. Rather than training the abilities of individual officers through schedule management, this entry takes more of a business-simulation approach with the player sending lancer teams on group missions; the success rates of these missions affect public confidence in the government. Each Lancer's stats will affect their ability to successfully complete missions, and if too many missions are failed the game will be over. Battles may occur during missions, which take a semi-automated turn-based format.
