AliceSoft is an [[H Game-game|eroge]] developer, one of the oldest in existence. Although they are perhaps not as well known as the truly big groups like [[Nasuverse|Type-MOON]] and [[Key Visual Arts]], AliceSoft has managed to carve out a niche for itself by incorporating interesting and involved gameplay elements that occasionally challenge the player. Where other developers will eschew gameplay in favour of [[Doing It for Thethe Art|telling a fantastic story]] or cutting straight to the [[Porn Without Plot|heart of the matter]], AliceSoft embraces it wholeheartedly to the point that many of their works on this wiki could be classified as both [[Video Game|Video Games]] and [[Visual Novel|Visual Novels]].
 
The company began in 1989 making games for the [[PC 88]], [[MSX]] and [[PC 98]]. These included a [[Visual Novel]] known as ''Intruder'' and the very first Rance game, chronicling the adventures of everyone's favorite [[Heroic Comedic Sociopath]] as he searched for and "rescued" kidnapped girls. They continued to release games in uninterrupted succession until 2008.
 
Many of AliceSoft's games tend to be either [[Eastern RPG|Eastern RPGs]], [[Dating Sim|Dating Sims]] or [[Turn -Based Strategy]] Games and have a penchant for [[Affectionate Parody|sly, subtle jabs]] at elements of anime and Japanese pop culture in general. Their more beloved titles fall squarely in the [[Explicit Content]] category and have high quality soundtracks courtesy of their in-house composers. Occasionally the company will allow its games to be adapted into short OVAs that tend to overemphasise the "porn" aspect of the works.
 
Alright, let's face it. Most people know of them because of [[Rance (Franchise)|Rance]].
