Evenicle Rance

Evenicle Rance was a pre-order bonus for Evenicle that puts Rance in Aster's place as the protagonist. It lasts until you reach Eden and is not all that distinct from a demo, but was never released for free.

A similar pre-order bonus starring Rance was released for Evenicle 2.

Changes
Evenicle Rance follows the outline of Chapter 1 almost identically until reaching Eden, so a walkthrough for the main game can largely be used to navigate this pseudo-demo (the only major exception is the hunt for a Gibbon around mid-game). Below are several major changes between Evenicle Rance and the actual Evenicle Chapter 1. Note that none of the new content includes any new art, only existing art repurposed in new situations.
 * In this alternate universe, Kyou and Kinou raised Rance as their brother instead of Aster.
 * Rance is Level 30 and starts with several powerful abilities (including Rance Attack), removing all challenge from the game.
 * Rance H's Riche the moment they meet.
 * Rance only asks questions about women with the "Gather Info" button, so there is no gameplay advice. Of course, the game still calls this "Useful adventuring info."
 * QD and Arthur appear in all the game's churches, frequently breaking the fourth wall. They comment on Laurent's absence, but she does not appear.
 * Barro is holding a knight exam outside of the Outlaw Cave, and appoints Rance a knight in exchange for defeating a Gibbon in the nearby forest via the purple puffs of smoke that appear on the main map. There is no mention of the original knight exam involving the Fog Labyrinth.
 * If you attempt to join the bandits to get a Bad End, Rance gets into an argument with the leader and ends up battling them anyways.
 * Despite his proclivities in the real game, Riche convinces Barro to marry Ramius when she is infected with Adan's Blood, but Rance gets there first.
 * There is no Collection menu, but nearly all Collection items from Chapter 1 are present and can be activated. The only exception are the the Megamonsters, which are inaccessible (the "East of Eden" landmark is not present, as you cannot get past the One-Eyed Puryo that guards it to begin with). Visiting 10 landscapes will earn you a measly weapon upgrade (this might just be a random drop?).
 * Attempting to travel across the bridge between Stallion and Eden leads to a cameo for Queenbelle.
 * Natal March orders Rance to hunt a Master Gecky instead of Acheval, and accompanies him on the trip (she is not playable). The game makes the dubious claim that monsters' clothing can be prepared as food.
 * Tilt attempts to murder Rance during the first trip to the Fog Labyrinth by possessing Ramius. Rance H's her in Ramius' body, which somehow wins her favour, even though she herself is confused by this.
 * The game ends in total chaos after reaching Eden. Put briefly: Rance becoming an Outlaw by raping Towa, rescues Colpis from the Eden knights, and joins Snake Crest, dragging his wives and Yarase with him. There, he becomes the "Green Knight" (a simple recolor of the Black Knight), "marries" numerous women, and convinces the White Knight to join him and betray Seydes. When the women who would otherwise have married Aster betray them, Rance allies with Colpis, Tilt, Ophelia, and Natal to battle them. The entire game is then revealed to be an "IF" scenario set up by QD.

Trivia

 * Most of Rance's art in the game comes from Rance Quest, including his 3D model. The version of My Glorious Days that plays is also from Rance Quest.
 * There are signs that Evenicle Rance was created using an earlier build of Evenicle than the one that saw release. There are minor changes to timing. Evenicle Rance's graphics data still includes a large selection of Accessories/Gal Monsters from the main game, but the list is still incomplete compared to the finished version. The included sound data includes numerous late-game tracks such as the main game's final boss theme, but is still half the size of the finished game's sound data.
 * The game's data includes character art up to the end of Chapter 1, such as Louin Eden and Rochefort, even though Evenicle Rance does not proceed past the meeting with Towa. This includes in-battle graphics for Barro and Acheval, and art of Laurent and Aster.
 * Aster can still be seen in the Settings menu.
 * This is not the first time Rance has substituted himself in place of another protagonist. The tradition seems to have begun with the Toushin Toshi Hint Disk, which included a scenario starring Rance in place of Custom.
