WHAT DOES SPRUNG MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Sprung

Sprung is a video game for the Nintendo DS. It was released in North America on December 7, 2004. Sprung puts players in the shoes of either Becky or Brett who try to get an NPC of the opposite sex to fall in love with them. Players "flirt" their way through conversations; player responses influence the resulting NPC dialogue. Sprung can be regarded as a dating sim, though the linearity and variety in the game lend it more to being an adventure game. The working title for Sprung was Crush.
