General FAQ

• Q : Where can I buy the game?
  A : You can buy The Japanese version at DMM\FanzaGames or at the Official Illusion Online Service (only for customers in Japan). There's no information about an eventual western/Steam release, but one is likely sometime next year.
• Q : I can't install it / I get a data cab error during install
  A : Move the install files to a folder with no Japanese characters like "D:\KKS_installer" and run the .msi file from the setup folder.
• Q : The game breaks when going to different maps or characters are in fast forward
  A : You need to install IllusionFixes (specifically the CultureFix). Saves made without the fix will have corrupted character data, so after installing the fix you will have to start a new game or remove all girls and re-add them.

Gameplay FAQ

• Q : What are Character cards?
  A : Character cards are special images in the format .png that contains data from the character to be loaded in the game. With this system you can pick up character from internet and load on your game and vice versa. Put Girl's cards in "UserData\chara\female" folder and Male cards in "UserData\chara\male". Note: Be sure to download the original card image file, not a miniature or a photo of a card, otherwise it will not work!
• Q : Do Koikatsu cards work on Koikatsu Sunshine?
  A : Koikatsu cards can be converted into Koikatsu Sunshine cards. When you place a Koikatsu card on "UserData\chara\female" it will be converted into a Sunshine card in the next time you open the game. WARNING: The other way around does NOT work, that is, Sunshine cards does NOT work on the old Koikatsu game. Also cards with mods may have issues.
• Q : Where can I get more girls cards?
  A : If you play the unmodified (vanilla) Japanese game and you are in Japan you can go to the ingame network option. If you are playing a modified version (in other language than Japanese or with mods) or outside Japan you cannot use the network option, instead there are many sites that share cards such as:

Illusion Booru

Kenzato

yuki-portal

Bepis

WARNING: These sites have cards for lots of games, be sure to download for Koikatsu or Koikatsu Sunshine!
