Hakuchuumu no Aojashin is the clear winner in September.
Daiki Matsuzaki is said to be a candidate for the ace pitcher of the baseball team, but due to a trauma caused by an injury, he can no longer throw the ball.
A younger childhood friend, Yuri Nanami, stands up to help Matsuzaki.
[Onii, you pushed yourself too far. That's why I'm going to pamper you!]
With advice from senior manager Suzumori Satsuki, Yuri supports Matsuzaki, sometimes by helping him with practice and sometimes by giving him skin-to-skin contact.
Yuri and Matsuzaki are gradually drawn to each other, but for both of them, both love and baseball are important...
However, both love and baseball are important to both of them... The clumsy and sweet coming-of-age of these two is about to play ball!

Utopia—an ideal said to have now been realized through the evolution of science.
However, it isn't open to everyone.
There are those who are chosen, and those who are not.
There are those who will accept new values as part of this evolution, and those who will still cling to old traditions.
Do you have the courage to search for the truth amidst this ideal that evolution has given you?

All of humanity has come to share the same dreams.
Some nights, a tale of adultery between a teacher and his student.
Other nights, a romance between a commoner playwright and a noblewoman actress.
Yet other nights, a story of burgeoning love between a truant young man and a teacher-in-training.
Again and again people see these same three dreams.
Why does everyone now endlessly experience these dreams?
This is the story of the girl who's called the world.

Widely known to be of asocial character, Izumi Tomohiro is quietly spending his day in the corner of their classroom... or so it should have been.

Is this fate? Is this inevitable?
Unprecedented. Unparalleled.
The battle of our new (un)lucky student council president starts now!

It's been 30 years since sexual harassment countermeasures changed our way of life. Our day-to-day is governed by strict regulations dictating the appropriate distance between men and women and the various ways in which they can and cannot interact. As a result, direct interpersonal contact has been painfully reduced...
In a society where male and female members must always be six feet apart, even dating requires authorization.
But not in these hallowed halls!
Can you keep a respectable distance with three dauntless heroines horning in on you? And in a world where distance relationships are the new normal, how long will you be able to keep yourself from getting up close and personal?
Game is localized and has English reviews
6. Kono Subarashii Sekai ni Shukufuku o! ~Kono Yokubou no Ishou ni Chouai o!~ この素晴らしい世界に祝福を！ ～この欲望の衣装に寵愛を！～ [200924] MAGES. GAME
The story of Kono Yokubou no Ishou ni Chouai wo features the KonoSuba party, who during one of their usual quests, find a cursed tablet that lets its user freely generate clothes. The cast all get cursed with personality-reverse. Darkness turns into a sadistic queen, Megumin turns into a lolita and starts a Lolita Alliance, and Aqua turns into an actual goddess-like person. The characters will need to make and wear specific clothes with the tablet to break the curse. It’s a game where you can enjoy typical comedy situations of KonoSuba along with the cast acting out of character and wearing different costumes. Hence the Japanese subtitle, which can be translated to “Love For the Costumes of Desires".
Sequel based on rather average anime
7. Kagi o Kakushita Kago no Tori -Bird in Cage Hiding the Key- 鍵を隠したカゴのトリ-BIRD IN CAGE HIDING THE KEY- [200925] Cabbit
Touko was taken into custody on suspicion of committing murder and testified that she was the culprit. However, she was subsequently released due to insufficient evidence. The general public did not approve of this, so she ended up being imprisoned in a large mansion.
Youta was once saved by Touko when he was young, and he decided to live with her in the mansion after his grandmother was hospitalized, leaving him all alone. They were joined by Touko’s friend Mion, the class rep Yoru, and their eccentric classmate Izuru. He felt that it was a pleasant life, cooking together, chatting about random things and having the occasional argument.
But who is the true culprit? And why did Touko confess to the crime? Can the caged girl be saved?
Cabbit is a unique brand that specializes in mystery. And in this regard game disappoints as mystery is half scam and does not come even close to Hakoniwa Logic. Only main heroine has resemblance of story. But if you look at it as a harem cohabitation game, it's decent among its rivals as does not fall into degeneracy.
Tsukikawa Shrine has become strangely infamous as a place that supposedly spreads misfortune - a rumor that Shizuki Yachiyo, the daughter of the head priest, is highly concerned about. When Ichitaro ends up living at the shrine for a while, he starts helping his childhood friend out on the job, and eventually, he realizes something.
While Yachiyo is a diligent, hard-working priestess, she doesn't actually seem to believe in the shrine's deities, or the effect of their charms, at all. She also doesn't smile as much as she used to, almost as if she's given up on all hope in life. Without any friends at school, she always appears to be rather lonely.
Then, one night...
Ichitaro wakes up sensing a strange presence, and finds Yachiyo perched on top of him, peering into his face. She looks almost like an entirely different person
"You know... I actually wish I could..."
The small priestess reveals to him her deepest feelings - her worries, and her hopes.
Now that she's opened up to him, and only him, Ichitaro feels like he must console her somehow.
"Dear gods, please tell me this is the right thing to do..."
"Yep!"
"...Huh?"
Game is released in English and has English impressions
