Reader-participation game
Ohime-sama Navigation is a reader-participation game that ran from the February 2008 to May 2011 issues of ASCII Media Works' bishōjo magazine Dengeki G's Magazine. Originally, the readers were given three heroines—Crystal Hoshikawa, Hime Kaguyama, and Kari Nano—and the readers were able to vote on their birth dates and blood types which would determine their "princess type" which corresponds to princess in fairy tales. The main part of the game is for the readers to give advice to the three heroines as they attend the fortune-telling school.
Manga
A manga adaptation entitled Hime Navi (ひめナビ, Hime Nabi) was serialized in ASCII Media Works' Dengeki G's Magazine between the June 2008 and June 2010 issues and is illustrated by Raina.
