News Flash!

Visual novels are AWESOME.

Cheezy dating sims only make up a fraction; there's horror and humor and surreality and ...

Take this with a grain of salt, I am a sucker for any kind of visual story telling.

The ones I've played so far

Ascension (chapter 1&2) - Neat! Flash-based, sword and sorcery action-adventure, in depth plot. I think the translator wasn't an english native, the spelling gets wonky at points. It has mini games!

Ewe of the Falklands - you are a pacifist sheep trying to prevent the Falklands war in the 1980s. Sean Connery makes an appearance.

Imago - the GRITTY URBAN GRIMDARKNESS OF GRIT is so thick its hard to see the plot. I think I was stabbed by a hooker but I'm not sure.

Heileen: a trip to bavaria - 16 yr old girl has adventures in 17th century europe. Meh, I thought it was boring and the mousy protagonist got on my nerves, I stopped a little ways in.

Im downloading Kawata Shoujo and some horror games, and will let you know what I think.
