Angelique Duet

Angelique Duet (アンジェリーク デュエット) is a spin-off of the first Angelique game and one of the titles made to celebrate Koei's twentieth year anniversary. According to Ruby Party commentary, this title answered popular fan demand for an option to play as the first protagonist's rival, Rosalia.

Changes
The general gameplay and its characters returns with the following changes:
 * The player can choose Rosalia or Angelique as their protagonist. Romance events for the latter have been altered to distinguish itself from its base.
 * Gift giving, baking recipes and written date invitations —features which were introduced in Special 2— have been implemented into this title.
 * Friendship events between Angelique and Rosalia exist. Special 2's unique dating events with Sacred Guardians are included with additional night dates. The new events in this title include illustrated still images which change based on the protagonist.
 * A different animated introduction sequence from Special is available. Special events and endings are presented as animated and voiced movie clips. Audible greetings from highly Intimate guardians are included.
 * Stock quotes were rewritten for the main cast.
 * Character portraits and backgrounds receive a graphical update.

Differences between ports

Players can send letters to their friends through an in-game messaging system and visit each other's rooms to trade items. Animated movies are condensed into a collage of key frames and subtitles.

Consumers who bought the game from Gamecity's 2006 Spring Fair received a DS Lite pouch and étoile character cards with their purchase.
