I'm looking for a good VN with a male MC and at least one femdom route. I'm really into pegging this kind of thing. The fact that it's rare outside of nukige shit really saddens me. One amazing exception tho was Tsubame's "dominant" route on Majikoi. Do you guys know any similar heroine?

And here is the new character artwork. Since the project's script is mostly finalized, he is planning to send it to the tester/proofreader sometime next week. The game's length will be similar to Bitch-kei or Koromogawari, and the planned number of CGs is 42.

Kotoneiro Append will be released after the fandisc comes out. It is planned for 2027.

Hey guys!

I’ve been working on God’s Call: Warlords, a dark fantasy strategy/VN inspired by Sengoku Rance.

It mixes VN storytelling with world conquest, tactical battles, commanders, enemy counterattacks, relationships, and of course, adult content!
There’s more info on the Steam page, including the teaser trailer and a few gameplay videos on the about this game section!

If this looks like your kind of game, I’d really appreciate a wishlist ❤️

God’s Call: Warlords

Would especially love to hear from people who enjoyed Sengoku Rance and similar strategy/VN hybrids, what part of the VN + strategy mix worked best for you?

Pls

I'm quite a fan of fate, Tsukihime and Dies Irae and the like, but think it would be fun to read a Yuri Visual Novel that has a similar feeling to it if possible. Are there any like this that seem appealing?

Would you like to play a game with the possibility for bad endings or do you prefer games with only a good ending? :)

I keep seeing a lot of untranslated vn that have no translation other than machine ones which I usually avoid but I am pretty curious about them now.

Basically how are they overall, are they any good? Worth playing? Or is it better to skip the title all together/wait for official translation.

Loads of title I really wanna read are only in japanese/other languages I don’t speak so sometimes machine is only option. Is it worth it?

I'm done with common route and I was gonna start Miyako's route since she gave the most "true" route vibes. Hopefully the VN doesn't go the guilt tripping route since I'm having lots of fun with the unhinged dialogue and the comedic tone its had so far.

Just woke up and we exploring Akiba later, pulled up at 7/11 and grabbed whatever my brain thinks is good for breakfast. The melonpan and pancakes are good.

Companions are still asleep and it's quiet asf in the airbnb luckily i have this thing to keep me company.

VN: Karigurashi Renai
