Nursery Rhyme (ナーサリィ☆ライム, Nāsaryi Raimu) is a Japanese eroge visual novel developed by Lump of Sugar and released on November 25, 2005 for Windows.

Throughout the game, the player encounters CG artwork at certain points in the story, which take the place of the background art and character sprites.

Throughout gameplay, the player is given multiple options to choose from, and text progression pauses at these points until a choice is made.

[2] The game, taking place 500 years after the events of Tayutama: Kiss on my Deity,[3] is set in a fictional Japan where the existence of magic has been recognized by society, and thus has been the subject of much research.

Many of the characters attend Shōsei Gakuen (将星学園),[4] a prestigious all-girls school which provides its students with magic classes, as well as academic courses.

The player assumes the role of Shizuma Hasekura (支倉 静真, Hasekura Shizuma), a sensible teenager who, while his parents are working overseas,[4] is visiting his energetic childhood friend Makina Tomoe (巴 真紀奈, Tomoe Makina, voiced by Mahiru Kaneda).

[5] Shizuma meets spoiled rich girl Tita Flawless Brandt (ティータ・フローレス・ブラント, Tīta Furōresu Buranto, voiced by Kana Yoshikawa).

The last two heroines are Krile Shikishima (敷島・クルル, Shikishima Kururu, voiced by Komugi Nishida), a genius with dog-like ears and a tail,[5] and Rin Lim Venus (凛・リム＝ウェムス, Rin Rimu Vīnasu, voiced by Risa Matsuda), a shy and clumsy elf who is aiming to become a teacher.

The visual novel's scenario was written by Seimei Shibusawa, Daisangen, Eiji Takashima and Fuminori Aki.

[6] Self-described as a "pure love heartful adventure game" (ピュアラブは～とふる アドベンチャーゲーム, Pyua Rabu Hātofuru Adobenchā Gēmu),[7] Nursery Rhyme was released on November 25, 2005 as a DVD-ROM for Windows PCs.

Watakushi no Ōji-sama (NURSERY☆RHYME 1.わたくしのおうじさま), written by Sasa Miyachiruda and published by Softgarage, was released on September 25, 2006 under the Sofgare Novels imprint.

[13] A maxi single by Saori Sakura was released on September 3, 2007 containing remixes of the opening theme and another song called "kiss my lips".
