In the 1920s, young women had a chance to change society--by misbehaving. Gather a gang of girls. Explore. Battle petty townsfolk with quick, naughty games: Fib, Flirt, Taunt... Win boyfriends and other useful prizes. Expose the town's depraved secret before it entraps your girls.
Explore four beautiful game boards, dozens of character cards, and thousands of dialog cards (worn and aged from decades of neglect) which comprise the zany world of an American small town in the 1920s.
Sounds interesting, for $9 it can't be worse than Flower or Noby Noby Boy.
Now fucking hurry up and get Drakensang on there.

It was pretty highly acclaimed from most of the casual sites I visit. Never got around to trying it. Most of the user reviews said the mechanics are fun, the story is decent, but the game is shallow as hell (you will get bored before you complete it all).

Oh snap, busted! :lol
I bought it hoping it was like Catholic School Girls in Trouble, but unfortunately it wasn't. :'( Basically the playing field is a board, and there are NPCs that move around the board. Each board has a set of objectives, like "recruit a gang" which is your first objective. You see the pieces moving around the board and you click on one, then you can challenge it to one of four minigames. To recruit gang members, you have to pummel them into submission with the Taunt minigame, which is basically Insult Sword Fighting from Monkey Island. Once their ego has been sufficiently battered, then you can bend them to your will.
Each girl has stats in four different catagories that makes them better at different minigames (usually they're be high in one, low in another, and average in the other two) so it's probably best to try for a well rounded gang. Or just pick whatever random girls you come across like I did. One of the other minigames is Expose, where you try to get someone to expose their secret by guessing words in the sentence based on the words that have already been exposed. I haven't played the other two minigames yet, but I imagine they're more word puzzles, I only played it for about 10 minutes last night. It's pretty casual stuff, which I'm not totally against. The writing is supposed to be really good, but I haven't really got far enough in to say one way or another on that.

Someone pointed this out and BigFish booted it off their portal. Over the top, but that's the game's style.

LOL, one of your teachers tells you that she had to break into the Dean's office once to get her purse that she'd accidentally left in there before a "liason" later that night. If she hadn't gotten that purse, she might be nursing a toddler now.
