He and Sill ended up in Japan for a hotspring trip, upsetting the power balance of Japan, and sets the unification of its provinces in motion. Meanwhile, an ancient evil power stirs from its slumber…

  1. I Hope somebody can help me. I have this Problem with this Game and Utawarerumono ( Also downloadet from here ). Both Games are Working. But in Both Games i have the “Intro Bug”. Game starts, Intro starts, you hear the Sound and Music from the Intro but the Screen shows only Black. After the Intros are finished, the Menue pops up and Game works Fine. I know this is a minor Problem but i would be Happy if this Case was solved.
    And yes i tried to load the Video Files of both games Manually in external players like Media Player Classic or Video Lan Player. An in BOTH Players the Videos are fine and playing normally. So ists not a codec Isssue.

    Sengoku Rance with English Translation Patch 1.01
    After Using AppLocale Once to get over the the Start Bug after the Mini Intro/Logo it starts now without it.
    Not played Yet but it starts, and goes to the Menue.
    Problem with the Setting, only 800*600 seems to work.
    Everytime i Try to set another Resolution and click on okay, it resets to the 800*600 reoslution for Fullscreen.

    Utawareumono with English Translation Patch 1.01 and Voice Patch 0.4.
    Working Fine with the Workaround ( Setting Windows to 800*600 16 bit and Running Game in Window Mode because of the Super Speed Bug with 32 bit and Fullscreen ) Also Bug Crashing everytime you save.
    Only One Crash during Normal Gameplay. Game almost finished, 95% of CG and ALL Scenes Unlocked so far.

    Both Games Installed via the English Patches and not from Disk itself.

    For Both Games and the Bugs tryed Running as Administrator, and with Compatible Modes 95 / 98 / XPSP2 / XPSP3.
    Not working antyhing of it.

    System:
    Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit.
    CCCP Codec Pack 30.07.2011
    Summary:
    Games working
    Videos working in external Players
    Videos NOT Working in the Games.

      1. As i said, outside of the Games the Videos working in any Player like VLC or MPC. I’m out of ideas to get them working in the Games. Are there more Videos for Both Games like ingame or Endings ? When not okay then i must Life with this.

        And any Ideas why i cannot Change Resolution for Sengoku Rance ? I’m Using the ingame Options for Fullsceen. Theres a Huge List of Resolutions for Direct Draw, but nothing else but 800*600*32 is working. Nothing changes after clicking ok and the Option resets to that Resolution. ( Desktop runs at 1280*1024*32 )

        1. weird, i also have same problem that the game crash everytime i try to save (this game and utawarerumono) but the video works for me. maybe you can try set your system locale to japanesse and not using applocale.

          as for the game Crashing everytime you save, just live with it :D.
          i only save when i want to stop playing anyway.

          1. Hi,

            I had same problem on save files. I had to change the rights of the directory of save games. In fact by default the program couldn’t write in it.

            Perhaps it is the same for you.

            Best regards,

    1. try downloading gom media player. then finding the videos in the games folder and making gom the default video player for that file type. that is what i did when tears to tiara wouldnt play the videos

  2. I on the other Hand, I had my game crashing during installation. It says that the GAMEDATA\movie\????.alm something is corrupt and it’s going to be aborted. Somebody had this problem and dealt with it?

    1. i am having same issue as Maćko
      trying to install on win 7 extracted iso
      loaded with dameon tools and it starts then right at the starts gives me some bs game data error and shuts down

  3. I’m not sure what i done wrong but when i open the game it goes to a screen where a blonde loli swims past.
    Then some warning pops up in jap and i cant read runes.
    Did i do something wrong? help me out plz

  4. Now that I installed the game, now I have a much more different problem. Now, after the first movie that appears when you launch the game, something in gibberish appears and cannot play the game. Did somebody had this kind of problem?

      1. Make sure you have locale set to japanese before you begin installing. Aslo – don’t use PowerISO – it can’t handle japanese characters in filenames on images.

        1. Thanks, that did it! 😉 But now I’ve the same problem as Maćko again. XD After installing the game and the patch when I run the game some window pop-up and the game closes. 😛 (I feel like a completely noob)

          1. Sorry, but I’m spanish and the words to describe to window just don’t come to my mind. 😛

            Nevermind, I managed to make the first video run! Just launched the english patch with AppLocale. Now let’s pray so the game runs perfectly. 😉 (2 days trying to make the game run…..)

  5. I heard the newest Rance Quest was released in August, does anyone know if a group is working on translating it?

    I know that rancetranslationproject.blogspot.com has released the english demo (haven’t played it yet.) but I don’t know if they are translating the full game.

  6. man.. i love this game.. thanks for uploading it:)… wondering when will u upload the rance quest..? (with english patch ofcourse..:))

  7. I have all 8 parts and used winrar to extract the ISO and MDS and tried to use Deamon Tools on both of them, every time it starts installing but quickly gives me a error. The wired thing is its always different, also Apploc doesn’t seem to affect it at all, plz help.

  8. A quick question, are there other games by Alicesoft that are just as good as Rance (or better) and if there are are they on this site?

  9. weird, when i download this game i though i will encounter some problem because there’s so much complain but after i finish download all parts, it work perfectly. there’s not even one problem i encounter.:)

  10. Hello. ^^’ I’m having an odd problem. I’ve set the system locale to japan and have installed the translation patch, while also downloading an ISO from a different site. I find that whatever I do, the error that comes after the Alicesoft logo with the girl, ‘System 40 has experienced a problem’ always comes, even with patch 1.01. Is it that I’m using the wrong game version? Or should I uninstall, download a version from this site, try 1.01 and try again?

    1. Yeah I have the same problem and I downloaded everything from this sites links has anyone figured out the problem ??

    2. Same problem happened to me. But when I started the game, it showed the opening and everything, I clicked settings on the top left and made it full screen. Then it started working for me. Maybe you should try that. =p

  11. I have had no problems with this game in the past and it is really addictiong to play. I cat wait till the make the next and if they have cant wait till it has been translated.

  12. did anybody know when full game of rance quest (sequel of sengoku rance) will translated? cause right now i’m only can playing it’s english demo.

  13. You can just download and install the game so it isn’t obvious at first but you need the mount the game using a program like daemon that makes cd images. Which basically tricks the computer into thinking the game is in your cd drive instead of in a folder. Once you do that, you run the path, not the install for the game itself. Running the path installs the game.

    That should fix the problem for anyone who got the game to run but it has the error right at the start.

    1. DAMN THAT FIXED THE PROBLEM…… Normally I wouldn’t think of doing that since patches often contain no cd crack but this doesn’t…..

      Thx lots!!!!

  14. Hi thanks so much for providing this game it’s one of the most enjoyable games I’ve played in a long time. It’s a lot like Romance of the Three Kingdoms with a adult theme to it ^_^.

    I was able to get this game to work on Win 7 x64, This is what I did.

    I downloaded the game but did not install it, First I installed a program called Applocale, This program is provided free by windows. If your using windows 7 like me then it’s very easy to use and install.

    Once that was installed I opened the cd and ran als_inst.exe
    using the Applocale program not the cd itself.

    Once that was finished I installed the game.

    I hope this helps. I haven’t had any issues I see all movies and the game runs great.

    Thanks again everyone ^_^

  15. AWESOME game – most fun/addicting eroge I’ve played. FSN has an great story, but this is actually challenging. It would be fun even if it was all ages. Definitely recommend getting the walkthrough & checkig out the Wiki since attacking places randomly won’t work.

    Install was a bit tricky for me. I don’t have Daemon Tools, so I just burned the DVD (single layer is cheap anyway), and then installed using the english patch. If using Vista/Win 7 (I’m running Win 7 64bit, install into a “C:\Games” folder – not “Programs” or Programs (x86).

    You DO have to run it with Applocal when you play. I made a shortcut using Applocal, put it on my desktop & then right click/run as Admin to play. Never had an issue or needed the DVD post install.

  16. I gotta ask does this game even HAVE a story to it? it seems all it is, is taking over other countrys so rance can have his way with their princessess, least thats all I see so far and I am at turn 17 or so.

    1. Compared to FSN or Family Project (etc.) not really. The story is Rance – defeat your enemies, H all the pretty girls and enjoy life. There is continuation of character and some events throughout the Rance series and in Sengoku, there are some minor character stories, but the main draw is the battle to conquer (and save ultimately) JAPAN. Still, if you want your VN to be story driven, this might not be for you.

      What’s amazing about this VN is the re-playability. Once you get done with the 1st playthrough, not only is there a 2nd playthrough (albiet very similar but you can recruit some other NPCs), 3 alternative routes (Kenshin, Ran & Isoroku), a “kill the monkey route” (see the wiki to avoid spoilers) and a free for all where you can start off as another house and try to conquer from another perspective.

    2. Well, all games I have played so far of this category (Utawarerumono, Koihime Musou) are not a great story and much options, but choices to spend the time of the protagonist with determined girls at the end of the day. About the story, I dunno, Utawarerumono had a nice story, although it wasn’t something awesome. Still, those kind of game are enojyable in their own way.
      Of course, if you want a good story, there are another ones, like FSN, Family Project, Clannad, G-Senjou no Maou, Sharin no Kuni, Saya no Uta, etc.

  17. Can someone PLZ post me a link to a good guide/walkthrough for this game. I tried the version 1.11 walkthrough on gamefaqs, but from turn 14 the walktrhough isn’t worth anything anymore, since in the old version you could supposidly have an extra “action fan (extra turn)”, when you got “rance sattisfaction bonus +10”, but i only get this option around “rance statisfaction bonus +50” in this version, so it’s immposible to follow that walktrhough.

    I need some help with this, cause when i tried the game without a guide i did conquer some territories but some girl i didn’t wanted to die(and didn’t die in walkthrough), died, and another girl got raped by some fuckin monster and i HATE NTR and i am completely grossed out by it. I’m not goin to touch this game anymore untill i have a good walktrough….

    So if anyone could help me, i’d appreciate it.

  18. Just a quick question:
    Why does the version hosted here has 2,45 GB, while the other versions found all over the internet only have ~1.8 GB?

    What did you add to make it almost 700 MB bigger?

  19. After having to reset and wipe my computer a month or two ago, I find myself downloading this game yet again. It’s something fun to pass time with and the whole concept (and subsequent rape scenes) are more hillarious than anything else. A fun game with (almost) too many girls to get with and doesn’t require hours of story play to get anywhere.

    1. it seems only account holder who can download these files. now all we can do is waiting either filesonic enable their sharing system again or till admin upload these files somewhere else

  20. Nice Admin! Been ages waiting for this! thank you, ah .. i feel relieved, you know, i’ve been checking whether this one uploaded or not day by day since the closing of filesonic, thank you Admin!

  21. anyone please help. i’ve tried playing this game using walkthrough from gamesfaq but i encountered problem cause i cant level up suzume when 9 turn while the walkthrough point to use item to get enough aff point have suzume leveled up. can anyone point some useful things like what item that i had to acquired to get enough aff point and when i have to acquired those item? i’ve tried this walkthrough from beginning twice but no luck and end up different path

    1. item you need are: senri cup (4points), kanou scroll (3 points), experts drum ( 2 points), jaw screen (1 point). you can get these from battles.

  22. When i download the a part I don’t kown how to place the date in a folder to extract later? I have tried more than one zip, at this time i’m trying stuffit deluxe 2010. can someone detail how to do this I really wish to play this game i would buy it if i could. help please

  23. No problem installing and all works fine. Rance makes me want laugh and punch him at the same time.

    I can’t seem to be able increase my action fans though… It’s missing.

    1. Well, I finally played it through though it ended up in a game over. The walkthrough’s I’ve found didn’t help because the availability of additional action fans was different.

      One word of advice for who are about to play? Delay too long and game will screw you over HARD.

      1. the walkthrough is very detailed. maybe you missed something, just a reminder for the extra action fans that you will get is that you can only get them after reaching a certain amount of satisfaction points. the first extra action fan i think is you need 50. in the walkthrough you’ll only see 10 yo because it will be the first you will use your satisfaction points. you can see how many satisfaction point you have after rance H girls.

  24. Hello,

    I installed and played this game a while and want to play again but there is no sound. Maybe I’m being a retard here but the sound is not muted (although is was originally, thought that would fix it but apparently not) so I’m not sure how to fix it. I could reinstall but I think I’d lose the points from previous playthroughs so thats a problem. Any help would be much appreciated.

    1. Yep, I was being a retard. Originally the games sound was muted and I couldn’t find the settings for that, then I fixed that but forgot I had the sound on my laptop muted.. ugh.

  25. Hi. Does anyone know of a way to hack the number of available action fans from the start? Or of a file or hack somewhere?

    I just want to enjoy the game a bit more though I am enjoying this game very much regardless. I just wish I didn’t either have to feeling a bit rushed if I am not feeling I am lagging behind.

  26. Not sure if this has been brought up, but the Mediafire link provided appears to not work as it claims that the file does not exist.

  27. i tried to download it but cant download link number 4, is it broken? it let me download from that link yesterday but was very slow and always finish prematurily. Today the download wont start at all, i downloaded all the other links, any help would be much appreciated, many thanks.
