Been a bit addicted to this game genre lately. I just played an interesting one called Otaku's Adventure, text-based and the plot is hilarious. The girls are pretty attractive BTW. Would highly recommend this one! Any other VN recommendations? (already got some such as SeaBed and Crescendo, would take a look then!)
steins;gate series occultic nine robotic notes utawarerumono trilogy devil on g-string tears to tiara 1&2 fate series to heart white album
Time Princess There're so many different books that you can choose Including Queen marie (about marie antoinette), magic lamp (about aladdin), Swan song (black swan story), Romi and Julius (romeo and juliet but gender bender), Ghotam Memoirs (about a reporter in ghotam city), Tang dynasy hunter (a wuxia or is it xuanhuan? story), siwoo's sight (K-idol story), etc
i played visual novels a decade ago, here's some of them : Sengoku Rance Aselia the Eternal Utawarerumono Kamidori Alchemy Meister Tears to Tiara Yumina the Ethereal that's right, i only played visual novels with gameplay
muvluv (a trilogy, very recommended if you can go through the first and second game, the third game is a masterpiece (dont watch the anime, it is not that good), but only worth it if you play the first and second game before playing the third game. It is no 1 by rating at vndb) school days hq (very recommended, heartwarming story about a highschooler daily life with his girlfriends, has many endings too!) chaos;head (one of the earlier nitroplus game, if i am not wrong it is set in the same world as steins;gate) saya no uta (remind me of ctulhu) fate stay night tsukihime tears to tiara fault ef the first tale and ef the latter tale (the game opening was directed by makoto shinkai) fortisimo baldr sky eternal senia da capo grisaia danganronpa g senjou no maou yumina the etherial katawa shoujo (i think it is made by 4chan or reddit, i forgot) eien no aselia and its sequel, seinarukana yume miru kusuri kira kira (about music) deardrops (about music) dengeki striker (if i remember it correctly, it is a kamen rider / power ranger inspired vn) shuffle koihime enbu duel savior princess maker anything made by KEY (clannad, kanon, etc) and ryuushiki07 (higurashi, umeneko) Try looking at vndb rangkings, vndb has VN descriptions and screenshoot too there are other oldschool VN that are very good, but i think their translations files are quite hard to find nowadays.
Visual Novel? Phoenix Wright series Professor Layton series Danganronpa series AI Somnium series Detective Conan & Kindaichi Case Files No romance btw.
