True Remembrance , Ashita Deatta Shoujo and Uchi no Imouto no Baai (Heart) can be called masterpieces. I'm inclined to name Ashita Deatta Shoujo the winner. My review of it follows next.
1. Konohana 3 ~Itsuwari no Kage no Mukou ni~ 此花3 ～偽りの影の向こうに～ [030501] Vridge Inc. 1
The story picks up lightly with Meguru and Miako bickering about. After some computer chatting, Miako arranged to go with Meguru and Shinobu to a Water Island amusement park. There, they would also meet up with some other friends and acquaintances. Time went by as they were checking all kinds of interesting places at the amusement park, until they entered the house of horror attraction. One of the people among them was found killed in a haunted house and everyone's a suspect. It is up to Meguru and Miako to once again put their minds to the task of solving the murder mystery and finding the culprit.
The third bullet in cheap price youth detective series. There are many endings, so cost/performance ratio is high, but overall it's not particularly fascinating.
2. ALMA ~Zutto Soba ni...~ ALMA ～ずっとそばに…～ [030502] Bonbee!
After Takumi and his sister Yui lost both of their parents in an accident 3 years ago, life is steadily going on for them and a close circle of friends.
One day, a new student transfers to their school. This is the starting point for a subtle but actual change in their frozen time. Who am I?, What has happened in the past? The beginning of summer holds the key to unveil these questions...
Game resembles AIR perhaps too much. First half is mediocre everyday life flow while second half is sudden and intensive development. Game appeals to emotions rather than actual thinking. I really can't stand such nakige.
3. Anemone アネもネ [030502] BOM
Main character witnesses a catastrophe on the way home - an alien dies on his hands telling of evil alien conspiracy. Protagonist receives radar to track aliens locations, and it points to his own house where his six sisters live. One of his elder sisters is an evil alien... he needs to find the culprit and have his justice. A foolish bakage with absolutely useless scenario and tilt on ero. Basically, just an older sister game.
4. Stage [030502] Foster
Drama club works hard to complete a play for the "STAGE" school festival. Through everyday activities main character grows bonds with the participant girls.
This is the longest Foster work so far. The amount of text is indeed so big that it's really easy to get tired. At the same time non-HCG are rare which makes it even worse. There is just ONE H-scene for each of four heroines, and that's unprecedented for Foster. The result is mediocre from all sides.
5. Wataridori ni Yadorigi o 渡り鳥に宿り木を [030502] Studio B-Room
19th century European island country. Main character comes from a small and aims for a bit city. He meets two girls in the train and gets in good terms with them. After arriving to the city protagonist gets an offer to become a tutor of one of the girls.
Game is sometimes called Hinadori no Saezuri #3, and the spirit of the work is really close. SIM part is terrible, and game is morally old.
6. Ame Nochi Hare Nochi Comic Island 雨のち晴れのちこみっくアイランド [030509] Girl's Software
Main character comes to a town and gets a job at manga cafe. His days are colored with fun and friends warmth.
Crappy game, but amount of eroticism is not much more than in ordinary pure love game, so it would be unfair to block it just because of the cover.
7. Yajuu Sentai Schwarkan 野獸戰隊シバルカン [030509] Shao Shao Kappa
In 2004 aliens are rescued on space station "Kibo". They tell about crisis that approaches the Earth and die. Japan government together with UN create International Extraordinary Rescue Team to fight aliens invasion with the help of huge humanoid robots. In 2009 runaways from inter-galactic prison showed up at the Earth to establish criminal foothold here.
Not really a visual novel, so no point discussing.
8. True Remembrance [030511] Shiba Satomi 1 2 3 4 5 6
True Remembrance is an ordinary tale of the ordinary days spent in an ordinary town by an ordinary girl who learns that everything in this world is extraordinary - or that nothing is. For in this world, there is a young man named Blackiris; a Mnemonicide par excellence. And there is a young girl named La; sweet and warm and gentle in all the ways that count. This is their story.
Game is localized and has many English reviews.
9. Chobits ~Chii Dake no Hito~ ちょびっツ ～ちぃだけのヒト～ [030515] Broccoli 1
Story centers on a 17 year old guy by the name of Hideki Motosuwa, he resides in an alternate universe of sorts thats filled with things known as Persocom's, a Persocom simply put is a Personal Computer. Unfortunately though, Hideki could never afford a Persocom of his own, and the story begins with him finding an unattended, tied up persocom in a pile of trash, he takes the Persocom home and later discovers as the story progresses that there is a possiblilty that his Persocom is something known as a Chobit. The Story then develops entertainingly around the idea of Chi (Thats what Hideki named her) being a Chobit.
There is an English review.
10. Mind Reaper [030516] Ivory
The world with sudden mass riots are a usual thing. Mind Reapers are people who are presumed to be the cause of sudden mass riots.
Main character is a student who gets attacked by a group of trained men one day. His classmate girl comes out to help protagonist with words "it's not a fight for ordinary fumans" and defeats opponents one by one. What's the reason for attack? What is the true nature of the girl? The girl promises to protect protagonist, but it's only the first in the chain of events.
World must have gone mad. First Foster and now Ivory start to make games that aren't nukige. Protagonist revals super-hero powers inside himself and fights mysterious organization together with his fellow mates. Atmosphere is actually close to Nitro+ games. Battles are done in SRPG manner with around 20 battles for each playthrough. H scenes are mostly insult ones, but it's Ivory, so it should be no news.
11. Shinseiki Evangelion Koutetsu no Girlfriend 2nd 新世紀エヴァンゲリオン鋼鉄のガールフレンド 2nd [030516] Gainax 1 2 3 4
Do you remember the last episode in the Evangelion TV series? Where the anime staff presented you with a new world? An environment more like that of a romantic comedy where Shinji plays the clueless hero, Misato as his sisterly caretaker, Asuka as his childhood friend, Rei as the new girl in school and Kaworu as the resident bishounen?
Now you can live this lighter Evangelion adventure through your PSP in Koutetsu no Girlfriend 2. Find out how different Shinji's life could be in this brighter world.
Game is localized and has English reviews.
12. Yakiniku Kuripuupi やきにくくりぷうぴ [030516] Tablet
Numerous crises hit well-established yakiniku restaurant "Kuripuupi"! Most of waitresses and one male employee leave the establishment. Can you get your customers back with just four waitress girls in uniforms?
Graphics is so bad here that it made consumers furious. One play can be over in just 5 minutes. Rare kusoge.
13. Love Hina Gorgeous ~Chiratto Happening!!~ ラブひな ごーじゃす ～チラっとハプニング!!～ [030522] Konami 1 2 3
Love Hina Gorgeous is an adventure which puts you in the shoes of the only male protagonist in the series, Keitaro Urashima, who is trying to get into college while at the same time performing his duties as the dorm manager. He need to improve his grade if he's ever going to get a chance to get into a college of his choice, a University of Tokyo. Taking care of a girls only dormitory won't help him achieve his goal, quite the contrary, it may lead him into many troubled situations and misadventures. Adventure mode plays in a sort-of visual novel fashion with limited time for certain choices while exploration mode lets you explore the locations in third person using the cursor to interact with items and characters around you. There are also various action event sequences which comprise of various mini-games as well as studying portion of the game which requires you to answer questions correctly and level up your character skills.
There is enough English information for an impression.
14. Kurenai Senki ~Kunoichi Shinobi Ai~ 紅戦記 ～くノ一忍び愛～ [030523] Serene
Main character is a genius programmer who gets to know from his dying grandfather that their lineage is protected by Shinobu ninja. Moreover, his sweetheart and childhood friend Mizuho turns out to be his bodyguard. Protagonist is anxious to invite the beauty president of the rival company for a dinner, but Mizuho fiercely blocks the attempt. What secrets still remain hidden?
Serene has semi-nukige games, but with just enough curiosity to leave them unblocked. Nuki part here outweighs whatever other content it has. Drawing is horrible and all the heroines are same looking melon-boobs and skirts so short that pants are seen even while standing still. System is pretty bad as well. Story is very short for each heroine. I wanted to review this game, but it turned out to be a kusoge.
15. Miko Miko Nurse 巫女みこナース [030523] Psycho 1
The story takes place in the Paradise Hospital, the forefront of elderly treatment. As a result of the founder's retirement, the two heirs cannot agree on which uniform the nurses should wear — one having a miko style, the other having a nun style. Amidst the fierce debate is Tatsuya Makishima, a doctor-in-training....
There is an English review.
16. Piyo Piyo ~Love Love Hobo-san~ ぴよピヨ～らぶらぶ保母さん～ [030523] Easy Mode
Main character is busy helping out with his father's pet shop. One day shop is visited by school director who intends to lend pets for children emotional education. Protagonist starts to bring pets to students with emotional problems. Can he find love among them?
Easy Mode works are all ero-centered, and this time it's not an exception. But H level here is rather moderate, so I'd keep it not blocked. Just another crappy pure love game.
17. Aoi Namida 青い涙 [030530] Artlim Media 1
The story takes place in a several different worlds, each set in a single volume of a story. Initially, the game starts in the Fantasy Volume of the story. It then shifts to Reminiscence Volume, and finally ends with the Modern Volume. The main heroines are introduced individually throughout the story during the Fantasy Volume where player can chose to pursue a romantic affection with one of the heroines. Based on player's interest in a specific heroine, the Reminiscence Volume will reflect a different story of the past, ultimately concluding the story in the Modern Volume showing the present-day of the story. New characters appear in different volumes of the story.
Scenario is by Korean author, so Confucian values are strong in here - especially family value. Japanese language feels artificial or mechanically translated here at times. Different editions change frequently, so it can be difficult to keep in touch with what's going on. Evaluation differs greatly with different people.
18. Ashita Deatta Shoujo あした出逢った少女 [030530] Moonstone 1 2
"It's summer. The place is a crater lake near the naturally ambient, rural village "Takachiho". The protagonist is standing still, blankly looking at the far-away sky.
Amnesia... His memories of the past have been lost. It's a strange thought, but to him on that day, the sky seems tailored to both dusk and sunrise, a mysterious color..." The protagonist, Tachibana Takashi was a freeloader in a house, living there with four beautiful sisters. Until suddenly, one day, a sad incident occurred...

19. Eclipse -Zettai Reido Keikaku Soushitsu Shoujo- ECLIPSE－絶対隷奴計画・喪失少女－ [030530] Clock Up 1
Somewhere on the Darkside of the Moon, Second Lieutenant Fernandez and his all-female pilot squad are fighting for their lives against overwhelming forces. The XEN-TRIX mobile suit is technologically superior, but even cutting edge technology doesn't count for too much if you are outnumbered twenty to one.
Inevitably, a well placed shot inflicts critical damage, and Fernandez falls into a dark oblivion of wild memories...
There is an English review.
20. Kimi ni Okuru Tsubasa きみにおくる翼 [030530] Milky Kiss
There was a boy in a rural town. The boy had a very sick sister-in-law who spent most of the day in bed. Girl desired to fly more than anything else in life. Boy though what he could do to make her happy and started inventing wings for her. But as time passed he was running out of time. It's either now or never.
Donkan protagonist, inarticulate depictions and poor font make poor impression of the game. Text feels childish. There is lack of events. Scenario poses the most questions.
21. Mugen no Meikyuu 3 Type S 夢幻の迷宮３ Type Ｓ [030530] Software House Parsley 1
Two years have passed since the mysterious Phantom Labyrinth emerged in the desert. One day, a young adventurer seeking for excitement and riches met a mysterious traveler. He did not remember his own name and, before disappearing, told the astonished youth to go and seek out the Desert City. There the adventurer encountered the unique civilization of Ge-Pang and ventured into the depths of its dungeons.
Third bullet in RPG series that can be of interest only to those who like JRPG.
22. Natsu Shoujo 夏少女 [030530] Pulltop
Masato visited his friend's hometown during last year's summer holiday and met three girls, Aki, Miyako and Ayami. He enjoyed his time there, and promised with them he would come back again when he left. One year later, he returns there, and meets them again, who have grown up a little bit...
There are only three heroine routes. Finishing one route is fresh and impressive, but the other routes are too alike and thus boring. Each route deals with the problem heroine has, and each story feels short. Atmosphere and text are good.
23. Seijaku wa Yami no Shirabe 静寂は闇の調べ [030530] Remain
Few years after the World War II, the protagonist receives a letter naming him as heir to the inheritance by his sick biological father - the fact that he has no memory of, yet which his current parents reluctantly admits as true.
He returns to his hometown with intention of rejecting the offer, and meets a relative who still remembers him from her childhood. As the stay unintentionally grows longer, sequence of strange events begins to take place against him...
Orthodox suspense drama, and depiction of horror post-war world with immoral women treatment is far from reality. Only few heroines have some relation to the story, others are just redundant for the story purpose. The last story brings all the revelation, but playing other routes feels just useless.
24. Shinobitic☆Heart 忍ちっく☆はぁと [030530] Kiss next team BOTTOMLESS
Main character's parents move, and his new school turns out to be a school for ninja. At the same time protagonist becomes targeted by mysterious ninja. What's their aim?
Bakage. Main character is useless for fighting, so he desperately to counter attacks with words. Scenario is lame, so game only for those who like ninja bakage and can stand lolicon scenes.
25. Uchi no Imouto no Baai (Heart) うちの妹のばあい（はあと） [030530] 1
When Tatsuya was a child, his biological father abandoned him and his mother because she was always ill and had to stay in the hospital for a long time. Then she married to another patient at the hospital who was Yuuka's father. A few year later, they passed away and Tatsuya had to take care of Yuuka. They had been very close as children but when they grew older, their relationship gradually changed. Yuuka began to call Tatsuya "aniki" instead of "onii-chan" and she treated him coldly. Tatsuya even gave up his dream to become a professional baseball player to be always by her side before. Now what can he do to return to their "good" old days?

Foreword: I just could not pass by without seeing with my own eyes one of the best cyberpunk'ish visual novels.
Title: Paradise Lost
Developer: light
Date: 2004-01-16
VNDB link:https://vndb.org/v1951
Youtube walkthrough:https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLs4Gp5VU4Fv9UUudO0wufPK3KqL-YaTUD
Synopsis: Paradise Lost takes off in a dystopian setting that comes off as much more blatantly dark than its successors’. The stage is in a city known only as Sodom, which is separated from the outside world known as “Zoar”. Ruled by the gang known as the Infinite Viper, the law of “the strong eat the weak” is rampant throughout Sodom to the point that if you’ve lived beyond the age of 20, you most likely have murdered someone in order to do so. It is widely believed that outside lies a peaceful world free of the everyday violence so frequently seen in Sodom, but there is a closely guarded Gate that prevents residents of Sodom from leaving so no one has actually left and returned to confirm.
Game type: Dystopia epic confrontation
Character Design rating: 10/10
Protagonist rating: 10/10
Story rating: 10/10
Game quality: 10/10
Overall rating: 10/10
Rating comments: Game has few perfect ratings, and I really tried to find any flaws in it as well. But I could not find any. I absolutely love all the protagonist, heroines and even side-characters. Story is second-to-none and without any fillers. Quality hits over the roof for me.
Protagonist: Ryle is totally awesome with his split personality and coolness, but I was worried about Know a lot after reading reviews on the game. He was described as a jerk associating with the worst moments of the game. That's partly true, but Know is not a one-sided character. He's a kind-hearted loving brother in the beginning of the game. He is reflexing about having to lose his left hand to buy food. When he is put into conditions to lose his right arm, he's at the brink of despair. He's so weak, but he chooses to protect Sophia and Ril even at the cost of his life - and only miracles save him several times. Masada writing manages to imbue Know with a lot of empathy which colors his less rational actions with different shades of grey.
Characters: All three heroines are charming and possess a unique story of survival in this unpredictable world. But side-characters and enemies also make this game shine. Ennis appearance makes every scene better. Moral choices and hesitations of Lilith make this heartless scientist feel alive. It's rare to meet such charismatic (and voiced!) negative character as Judas Strife.
Story: The only thing I want so say about the story is that it's fast-paced, breathtaking and without fillers. Each chapter has its title which seems a bit off from the start, but each chapter manages to perfectly describe its meaning.
Prologue
The 1st. God Forsaken Sodom
The 2nd. A Contest For Belzebub .
The Intermission. Criminal Fire Works.
The 3rd. Guilty Guilty Guilty
The Final. God Save The Zoar
The Final Godless A God Knows
Thoughts:
1) One of the best features of the game is sex scenes filled with talk and meaning. And it's not just one Ast blowjob scene. Half of H events are made this way, so I feel sorry I have to cut them out of the video. I only encountered this feature in Coμ so far, and it really adds up to the evaluation.
2) I only know Dies Irae by the anime so far, but I'm sure that Paradise Lost is its spiritual predecessor. It has a lot of God motives as well concept of an omnipotent Deity messing with lowly creatures fates.
Overall comments: This is the first Masada game that I've read. I'll try to play every game where he has something to do with the concept or writing.
Lost Child is VN of the Month, review incoming. Guess Kono Aozora ni Yakusoku o can also be called a masterpiece.
1. Spitan Spirits Expedition -in the Phantasmagoria- スピたん Spirits Expedition―in the Phantasmagoria― [060303] Xuse 1
There’s a mountainous crag to the northeast of the Continent of Dragons called Dragon's Claw Marks. No one in the recorded history has been able to cross that area safely. However, they did not have a newly invented airship!
You play as the aspiring and newly appointed captain of this vessel, Loty Eiblyss, but you didn’t exactly come with your own crew of hardened sailors. In fact it’s more like a rowdy well-to-do family of women posing as a crew, coupled with an actual lady sword master (your teacher) and an another mysterious girl. At least this family of nine women appears to be trained to fight when the need arises.
It's mostly a strategy game.
2. Fushigi no Kuni no Kanojo 不思議の国のカノジョ [060306] Saga Planets
Main character belongs to the literary club "Girl of Memories" and struggles every day to complete a novel. One day, a mysterious girl "Negai" appears before him to fulfill his destiny, but in fact she is a delusional girl from the novel. She is invisible for others, but clingy enough to support with advice at every step.
It's hard to tell what's real and what's a geek projection in this novel. First half is quite fun, and second part can be emotional as heroines charm starts to shine. Volume is ok, so it's an enjoyable work overall.
3. Hidamari no Hana 陽だまりのはな [060310] Soufuu
Kousaku is back to his hometown because he quit a job angrily. He is supposed to start working at a flower shop that his mother runs. However, the shop is changed to a herb and herb tea shop. His mother tells him to work as a shop manager from today. Kousaku's new life is started.
First half is ok since it's a comedy with some good gags. Second part goes into individual routes with different development, and each heroine path is completely different. Capture is really difficult as all is seen is map with locations to go and no girl signs seen, plus it's not possible to save on the map. Heartwarming atmosphere and unique text in H scenes may be the only features of this work...
4. Oshiete Miko Sensei おしえて巫女先生 [060310] Anesen
This is a story of Miko, who happens to become a teacher at high school. Enjoy a slapstick comedy of Miko and her students.
Shrine maiden's temple gets destroyed, so she becomes a temporary teacher. There are two main story-lines - with teacher and different classmates - and they can be pursued simultaneously. H level is quite high as there are erotic gags like going to school with no panties, and there are also 3-4 long H scene for each heroine. The whole shrine maiden thing is just for the catch, it's a normal school story just with teacher flirt.
5. Gakuto! がくと！ [060317] Gindokei
Misuzaku School hosts over 100,000 students. As discipline committee goes on rampage, main character suggests a new set of rules, but to enforce them he needs to win school elections. There are a lot of candidates to compete with - like a hentai girl who wants to change school uniform into swimsuits or a martial artist girl who wants to turn school into fighting grounds. But the root of evil is discipline committee chairman who is trying to turn the school into his own harem. To win the elections protagonist must get the buttons that all candidates have. A new school life of love, battle and conspiracy begins!
There are as many as 10 female heroines to capture, and afterwards True route opens up. Individual routes have lots of comedy in them. Quite a lively game with fully animated opening which is a rarity.
6. Okaerinasaimase ☆ Goshujin-sama ♪ お帰りなさいませ☆ご主人様♪ [060317] Undel
Erotic adventure game at a secret maid cafeteria in Akihabara called "Rokumeikan". All the erotic scenes are done with wearing cloths. There is a maid cafeteria located in Akihabara called "Rokumeikan". Many customers come to the cafeteria every day even though new customers need introducers to come in. Kurata's aunt is concerned about the situation of the cafeteria where maids hold court with customers. She decides to hire Kurata to teach the maids what "Moe" is. But they never listen to him and his job is to do a chore at their dormitory. One day, when he is sweeping in front of the cafeteria, a girl talks to him. " I heard that you are recruiting maids...". This meeting is the dawn of....
It's a moege with some H tilt since there are such things as 3P and harem route. Maids confuse some activities as service. But overall it's a comedy with some serious development late into the game.
7. Tenmusu!? ~Tonikaku Yoku Korobu Dojikko-tachi~ 転娘！？～とにかくよく転ぶドジっ娘たち～ [060317] OLE
This is a stumbling love comedy. Many girls such as maids and university students around you stumble but you don't know why this phenomenon happens around you. To stumble is bad for these girls but good for you?
Basically, all heroines in this game share character trait of dojikko, which is stumble and fall showing panties. Development is bright with all 5 heroines, but it still feels like a H centered game with animation in H scenes, special system for sounds in H events and 3P in bad endings. There is next to none scenario, so dissatisfaction accumulates.
8. Memories Off ~Sorekara Again~ Memories Off ～それから again～ [060323] KID 1 2
This is a sequel to 2004's Memories Off ~Sorekara~. It contains scenarios that focus on the days following the events of the original, featuring the heroines Inori Misasagi, Miyabi Fujiwara and Karin Hanamatsuri.
There is an English reviews.
9. Shakugan no Shana 灼眼のシャナ [060323] Vridge Inc. 1
The player takes on the character of Yuji Sakai in the game. The game plays out like a visual novel but with the addition of a battle system and dating sim elements. Choices that are made throughout the course of the game determine which of the five endings the player gets upon completion of the game.
Another worthless anime spin-off
10. Ether no Sunadokei ~Angel Time~ エーテルの砂時計～ANGEL TIME～ [060324] DreamSoft
There is a town on the border of two worlds where lost things gather. Main character belongs to the faction of town protectors. He died and then got resurrected, so all his power is lost now. He decides to live like a normal person in the circle of friends, but things start to change around him...
Dreamsoft is an experimental brand of F&C, and it shows here. It can be considered a sequel to Asa no Konai Yoru ni Dakarete -. A lot of scenes are told from female point of view instead of protagonist. Direction and use of standing animation are good, but the story itself is unnatural and weird. Character design is specific, so there is little affinity for the heroines. First half is about managing a coffee shop for angels, and the second half is all about ghost battles and confrontation artificial king of cats. Not just protagonist, but main heroines are also reincarnations with their worries, like dog reincarnation etc. Story is basically one way road with heroines endings branching at the very end. Very strange work, indeed.
11. >>Fami! Kyou no Menu wa Lesson C >>ふぁみ! 今日のメニューはレッスンC [060324] Fonte
One day, Masaki is recruited as a training teacher at waitress training school. He is engaged in two jobs at the same time being a high school student in the morning and a teacher in the evening.
Our usual moege more tilt on H than anything else.
12. Lebensende レーベンスエンデ [060324] Lyric
Main character starts to live ordinary life after amnesia strike. One dark night he witnesses a beautiful girl fighting odd-shaped things. She asks to use her in the fight and turns into a mighty spiritual blade. Is this in some way connected to protagonist's past?
Main heroine is tsundere, and story is straightforward. There is also mystery element concerning heroes' backgrounds and past. But contents is battle focused and too short for any serious story. It's a low price work, after all.
13. Lost Child [060324] Tama-Soft
After disaster in 2024, seven years ago rain has never stopped in this city. As of recent, nightly serial killings have infused fear in human hearts. Injured by monster attack and dying student Shouji meets girl Ai who binds a contact with him and gives him power to use mighty claw in battle. They promise each other to survive no matter what, but it might be the first step to brighter future for the humanity.
I just can't pass by it, also promised a review long ago. Review incoming.
14. Rikorisu ~Lycoris Radiata~ りこりす～lycoris radiata～ [060324] Terios
Main character goes on a yacht voyage to archipelago on a summer vacation. Dense fog obstructs visibility, so he has to take shore at a small island. Three beautiful maids inhabit this island.
Game branches very early, and the first girl we meet becomes our girlfriend. It's a pure love game, but there's a harem route prepared if all heroines are captured. Scenario is pretty terrible, but fans of maid and art style will not be disappointed.
15. Senjou de Shoujo wa Karada o Kakeru 戦場デ少女ハ躰ヲカケル [060324] Cyc
Protagonist is a battle hardened soldier who enjoying his vacation in some famous tropical resort country. But his times of peace doesn't last. There’s a swift and violent coup d’etat that leads our hero and his younger sister to be captured. Our hero’s exploits have caught the eye of the rebellious men, and they force him to join their cause and lead their troops while his sister is being held hostage. He goes along with their plot against his will, but who knows; perhaps he’ll discover the truth and feel that the rebels are on the side of right. Furthermore, it doesn’t hurt that there are a few attractive lady officers and mercenaries hanging around. How will their fates pan out in the fires of war?
There are 15 battle stages prepared, plus unique one for each heroine. There are only women as commanding officers, so you know the drill since Foxy.
16. Setsuei 雪影-setsuei- [060324] Silver Bullet 1
Shuji was born at a snowy town. His parents died when he was a child and he was adopted by his relatives. He lives in a big city since then. However, he comes back to his hometown every winter to meet his sister. On the day when his parents died, he met his older sister. He could not believe that he had a sister but he accepted her as his older sister to relieve his sadness. They usually live separately but they meet once a year in winter.
This project is drafted by Romeo Tanaka, but story is simple and thus heavily relies on writer skills. The result is grievous. Characters fail to impress, and art makes things even worse. Endings fix things only partially.
17. Kashimashi ~Girl Meets Girl~ Hajimete no Natsu Monogatari かしまし ～ガール・ミーツ・ガール～ 初めての夏物語 [060330] Vridge Inc. 1
Inspired in the manga and anime series by Satoru Akahori of the same name.
The game's story begins on the outset of summer vacation. Hazumu's homeroom teacher Namiko Tsuki suggests Hazumu and her friends take a one-week trip to a small mountain village with a hot spring resort. Hazumu's grandparents reside in this town, and are two new characters introduced to the story. Three other female characters are introduced as possible love interests for Hazumu; two are the same age as her, and the third is the older landlady of the resort. The goal of the game is to pair Hazumu up with one of the five female cast of characters. The gameplay's main system comes from Hazumu's indecisive personality. If the player shows more interest in a particular character, the other characters get annoyed that Hazumu is ignoring them, which is displayed in a tension meter. The more Hazumu ignores a particular character, the higher the tension between that character becomes. This ensures Hazumu stays good friends with the possible love interests. In order to view the ending of a particular character, a certain amount of tension will have to be between the other characters, but this cannot be too great or the ending will not show.

18. Ano Machi no Koi no Uta あの街の恋の詩 [060331] P-Factory

His ordinary life changes to an extraordinary life since then. This is a love story with four girls until they get away from this extraordinary life.
Basically, main character is looking for shrine maiden to close the gate of Yomo that can bring destruction if remains open. And candidates to shrine maidens are normal people - childhood friend friend, transfer student, classmate and younger kouhai. Character design and high CG quality become this work's feature. There is also quite sufficient H element in all that.
19. Kono Aozora ni Yakusoku o この青空に約束を― [060331] Giga 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
One morning, Hoshino Wataru found a sleeping girl - in nothing but her underwear - in his room. When she woke up, she quickly escaped by jumping out of the window, but not without punching Wataru in the face first. This girl, Sawaki Rinna, ends up being a transfer student of Wataru's school, as well as the new roommate of Wataru's dormitory. He lives with four other girls and their school teacher, but due to Temizugawa Heavy Industry's cancellation of their aviation branch, South Sakojima Island's major company, the families involved with the corporation have to be evacuated in one year. As a result of this, the four girls have to leave the island in one year's time. Knowing this, Rinna refuses to become friends with Wataru and the other girls, because of the pain that she might experience as a result of their eventual separation. However, Wataru disagrees with her, and over the course of the year, tries to convince her otherwise.
There are English reviews.
20. True Tears true tears ～トゥルーティアーズ～ [060331] La'cryma 1 2 3
Dreams, hopes, and aspirations... are things that all people draw their visions of what the "future" may hold for them. Some are pastel-colored; others are darker in hue; still others shine radiant and unblemished like the hands of the rain.
What are my dreams? What are my hopes? What do I aspire to become? These are questions that the characters of this story ask themselves. But must all of them turn at last to weeping? Must they all harbor such darkness under the shadow of the wings of their hearts? Some of them carry the wounds of the past with them still, the burden causing them to lose sight of their dreams. Others see insurmountable walls between them and the things they dream of, causing them to walk away and give up. And still others -- worst of all -- have forgotten what it is to dream altogether. And so they smile, smile warmly and widely, in order to hide away the darkness and pain in their hearts... in order to shut out the future itself. But the moment a girl should step forth and say "no more" -- that is the beginning and the end. This is a season of true tears. Can you feel their hands as they rain down upon you?
Content is really thin. There are no individual routes, and the tour tiers are too short. Up to four people can be flagged simultaneously since each girl can be flagged only during three days in a week. Conversation is really boring, so there is nothing else to do, anyway.

They are fearsome ace pilots, calling the SSF's Special Armored Company #101 home. Special Armored Company #101 is a unit that utilize "Armored Knights," a mobile humanoid weapon. They have been commonly deemed "Armored Warriors," as the female commanding officer of the company, and the majority of the troops are women, as well.

Maintenance of public order, typical of police forces, also falls under the SSF's duties, and the eradication of human trafficking networks is part of the girl's daily obligations.

Some games can't be won without special item.

Umechiyo finally met with his childhood friend Piliru, but she is now pursued as she holds knowledge about her country underground activities.
It's not really a criminal story. Piliru is just 180 IQ girl who knows the secret recipe to drug curing cancer. Game has many alluring points, like charming characters and good tempo. Light and fun work. The flags are a bit difficult to track, but that's ordinary. But the game received many negative reviews just due to the fact, that right before the last scene there's like 16 puzzles timed for 2 minutes. It was impossible for most of players to complete the game because of them. And walkthrough was not as easy to get as it is nowadays.
4. E [i:] Tokyo Kyonyuu Story Ｅ［ｉ：］東京巨乳ストーリー [921120] Apple Pie

5. DOR Part 3 DOR Part 3 [921127] D.O. 1
DOR Part 3 is, as the title implies, the third entry in the series. The game's structure is identical to that of the predecessors: three completely unrelated scenarios, which can be accessed from the main menu.
The first scenario deals with a young man who is bored working for a company called D.O.. Luckily, on that particular day the company decides to interview a few young and pretty women, and naturally, the hero is glad to jump at that opportunity...
The second scenario depicts an average guy on a plane who pretends to be a real hijacker, threatening the passengers and coercing the female flight attendants to perform services of sexual nature for him.
The third scenario tells the story of a mad scientist, who has invented a machine that would turn human being into his willing slaves. At first, the scientist decides to use this machine on his cute female assistant, but in an unexpected turn of events, new victims appear...
New set of nukige stories.
6. Dracula Hakushaku ドラキュラ伯爵 [921127] Fairytale 1 2
Count Dracula wakes up after 300 years of slumber only to find his seven vampire brides dead and the world not terrorized by vampires anymore. Time to turn things to their original state! But first need to get rid of hunter Abraham Van Helsing annoying presence.
Point and click adventure by Fairytale. Or better say choose icon-point and click game. You actually move with arrow buttons at moving sections from a first person perspective and there are even items to get. Graphics is very impressive and characters are beautiful. By the end of 1992 the regulation of ero scenes in games in Japan was very harsh, that's why there were very few games that relied on ero scenes alone. Drakula Hakushaku has ero scenes, but rather few and unconvincing. Instead of sexual desire hero is more interested in sucking blood. Story is exciting, gory and satisfying. So this indeed is a good action masterpiece with great atmosphere.
7. Psychic Detective Series Final Vol. 6: Solitude (Joukan) サイキック・ディテクティブ・シリーズ・ファイナル Vol.6 ソリチュード（上巻） [921127] DataWest
Several months after the events of the "Nightmare" part.
- "Aya Shingonji is alive, I need your help" said the man who visited the hero at the hospital room. Katsuya Furuyagi lost much of his psychic force after the "Nightmare" incident when he spend almost all of his power to to drag the consciousness of murdered Langhao who got resurrected to the body of Rosemary girl. Aya was Katsuya former lover who lost consciousness and existed on a vegetative level with life support system. Is Aya truly alive? The biggest crisis of the series approaches.
This is the first half of the final volume of the story and things get terribly complicated here. Lots of previous works are interlinked here, so trying to discuss the story without a firm knowledge of previous parts is useless. Retrospective scenes jumps here and there all the time and it's difficult to follow the story. The game only covers a week of living in the Aya parents house prior to the dive into Aya mind which happens only in the following game, so evaluation of this part as a stand-alone game is not high.
8. Camisole キャミソール [9211] Flat
Heroine Tenjin Shima is a manager of the lingerie shop, but on the behind this is a private investigation organization. One day a request is received from the National Universtity to find the professor missing for a week already. All that's known is that professor was interested in excavation of an ancient civilization and searched for a hidden treasure.
Synopsis looks exquisite, but story is quite simple. It develops without any mystery solving. Second half is crumpled and ends poorly. Many characters that show up aren't even involved in story in any way, more like random characters to fill the gaps. Game's very short as well, reaching 2 hours length only for slow-readers.
Doukyuusei and Koroshi no Dress 3 are the masterpieces of December 1992, but I just can't rate a good story game lower than a very good, but still nanpa game. Koroshi no Dress 3 is the VN of December 1992.
1. Chikyuu Bouei Shoujo Iko-chan ~UFO Daisakusen~ 地球防衛少女イコちゃん ～ＵＦＯ大作戦～ [921204] Chime
Defender of the Earth girl Iko-chan defends the planet against alien monsters. This is a part of media franchise that by 1992 counted three OVAs, TV Dorama and manga.
Battles are done as a card game, but it's hardly possible to lose. It's more like a parody to the series, so no point discussing it without knowing the original.
2. Mirror 鏡 －ｍｉｒｒｏｒ－ [921209] Studio Twinkle 1
Young man enters the shop "Mirror" and touched the doll as the puppet-like owner Heine said. The next moment he found himself in a hospital with amnesia facing the woman who looked like a doll. Now it's time to find out the truth, if there is one.
New Birdie Soft brand so expectations are already high since visuals and sound should be on high level as always. But new studio name and being an 15+ work hurt the sales badly. So it is a romance story in the hospital, but with a quirk of suspense and good atmosphere created by talking with nurse and patients. And it's an ADV which is very rare while interactive adventures were dominant. Overall a high quality comfortable to play game with an intriguing story and good text.
3. Moonlight Energy ムーンライトエナジー [921210] Interheart 1 2
The heroine of the game is a high school student named Maki, who is focused on just one thing: sex with girls.
Interheart first game and a nukige right off the bat. The story is extremely lightweight and comical.
4. Ginsei Senshin Guynarock 2 銀聖戦神ガイナロック 2 [921211] Silence
2125. Half a year after the first incident. This time the SIS crew stumbles upon another ghost spaceship. Having found nothing, they move on, but two girls develop some body abnormalities. What kind of disease is brought from the abandoned spaceship?
A new Silence game which means it's not a long, but a highly animated game. This time the contents is less hardcore and presented by nude body parts at best. The turn of events here is curious, but not as thrilling as in the prequel. Perhaps for that reason the prequel gets a remake later from Sogna, but this second part does not.
5. Will no Dengon ウィルの伝言 [921211] Cocktail Soft
Heroine Lucia lives in a peaceful town of "Will". She hears from boy Rui who she helped in the forest that the neighboring town Wolfe is going to attack. There was a legend that once per 400 years a demon comes down to Will and Wolfe intended to utilize his power. To stop the assault Lucia is preparing to attack the front base of Wolfe on an aircraft.
The setting is rather elaborate and it's very unusual for Cocktail soft to issue a serious all-age science fiction story. The story had big emphasis on mechanisms, but soon forgot about then. This devil part looked totally unsuitable for the setting. Commands are given in words rather than in icons at the top of the screen, but there is little motivation for exploration since command feedback was limited. The relationship between two main hero mechanics was good. But the scenario was lacking and without H part it did not have a success.
6. Dalk [921215] Alice Soft 1 2 3 4 5 6
Hero gets involved into conflict between gods Martis and Mira. As a servant of Martis, he needs to unseal this goddess, protector of women. Fourteen girls will fight alongside in his quest deep into the mountains.
The game is an RPG and it was famous for 1,000 faces on the pc-98 box. Game had personal different scenes for each of 14 girls to accompany hero. And after clearing the game there was a 1000-floor dungeon to dwell deeper and deeper. It was indeed a colossus work. There are complaints on the battle map part, clunky moving part, but overall it was a good relaxing time killer with pleasurable gameplay.
7. Doukyuusei 同級生 [921217] Elf 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
Takurou is a high-school student who transfers to a new school and who wants to find his only one partner during last summer break before the graduation.
It was the first epidemic VN. Released on 17 december, it was a perfect Christmas present. 14 girls to combat for attention. Concept of time introduced, so there is always something new showing up with consecutive playthroughs. It's map movement on the global map and point-and-click type inside buildings. But together with the concept of time, multiflag, individual routes for each girl, nampa elements and first class romance scenario, there was a feeling it was a totally new genre. It was this multi-layer system that created the impression of game supremacy. You could enter an any building out of dozens, talk to any character so satisfaction was above a typical ADV novel. Cute loli Himo was supposed to be the main attraction and main heroine, but surprisingly many players like Hisa girl with a tsundere character the most. So it might be the beginning of tsundere stamp as well. There are a lot of working ladies as well. The scenarios were unique and well made and picture does not lag behind. BGM was perfect. Later versions got voicing as well. Console versions had no H images and H scenes and it was still good. Original game did not have much emphasis on romance, but windows remake tried to follow the trend and the charm of the work was gone to a point. So it was a revolutionary game in many aspects and a great popularization of the genre, so many people considered this game to be starting point and never knew about the previous games.
8. Floppy Bunko 14 - Sadistic Gamers Syndrome - Episode 1 フロッピー文庫14 サディスティックゲーマーズシンドローム エピソード1 [921218] Sixteens 1
You play as a boy who is getting real bad grades. You get a tutor in the form of a strict looking woman who is secretly into some vaguely kinky stuff. She thinks that smart people are sexy, so if you show her how smart you really are, then maybe the game will start to get sexual. The quiz will cover all sorts of topics, though none of the questions are presented in a way that makes it particularly funny.
There is an English review of the game.

A young girl who finds the first stone becomes Yū's companion (and the game's protagonist), and together they must find and recover the other stones.
There's a good English review on this game here.
10. Red [921219] Discovery
Investigation assistant got a letter mentioning Luna city and the letter was posted a month ago from the location of explosion accident. So investigation started.
This very solid work was buried under overwhelming popularity of Elf's Classmate. Science fiction setting, very likable characters and intriguing plot - it had everything to get popular. On the other side the work was clustered - it used icons for interaction, shooting modes and additional commands and phrases in dialogues. H-scenes weren't obligatory and after clearing they became available in reminiscence menu anyway. Otherwise it's a one-way scenario.
11. Koroshi no Dress 3 殺しのドレス３ [921220] Fairytale
Masashi Satoru is a Shibuya policeman set on a series of murders targeting only single males. And suspicion immediately falls on his lover.
First of all I should mention prequels. First part was issued in 1987 and it was a genius work, but with not enough volume at that time. Next part drifted away from suspense into eroticism and generally considered weak. So now we come to part 3 which is spiritual follower of original. Graphics are more anime-style compared to realistic style of previous games. A feature of this game is cuts from the viewpoint of the criminal which rose interest greatly. One by one new murders take place and inter-human connections of the victims get exposed. And the story has an adult feel and look. With those criminal cuts it's watched almost as dorama and all the tension brings to a satisfaction in the end. So it's a masterpiece work of its time.
12. Mischif ミスチフ [921223] Basement 1
Long time ago, the Magic World and our world were not on good terms. But now, it has become different - or has it?.. In any case, a young spoiled boy named Frito, from a rich Magic World family, has to get married - and his father tells him to choose a spouse from our world. Frito's trusted servant, an elf-like creature named Fin, finds three suitable girls: a Japanese high-school student (naturally), a maid, and a Wild West farmer girl. Who will become the happy bride?..
The second and last title of Basement who gave us Armist. Despite the fantasy setting quite a normal nanpa game. The difficulty is actually high since you can easily overdo something during H scene point and click session. There is an ending for each of the brides plus a hidden ending.
13. Beyond the Wall of Stars [921223] R. A. Montgomery 1 2 3
The planet Celadon is in trouble and needs help. In this story, you will become part of the expedition team which will try to reach Tara, a recently settled planet far beyond the Wall of Stars. Along the way, you'll get to affect the outcome of the story by making a series of critical decisions about direction, strategy, tactics and teamwork.
It's EVN, so it naturally has English reviews.
Foreword: This is Keno-san's scenario. He did not have much experience when we was thrown to produce scenario of the game that we know as Love Potion in two months time. Critics buried the game and that's why there was much more care in producing next game scenario - that was DESIRE, the game that I can't praise enough. The next year Keno wrote scenario for EVE burst error and on the wave of popularity moved to legendary Elf company where he kept working on EVE franchise and created another masterpiece YU-NO and then left for Abel company. He created a lot of wonderful scenarios after that but we're interested in Xenon ~Mugen no Shitai~ scenario. It was developed after DESIRE but prior to EVE. So it was the golden age for Keno and he was experimenting a lot, trying to further develop the already complex DESIRE structure. This resulted in Xenon -Phantom Limbs-.
Title: Xenon ~Mugen no Shitai~
Developer: C's Ware
Date: 1994-12-09
VNDB link:https://vndb.org/v7474
Synopsis: Kōji, a Japanese high school student, experiences strange, recurrent life-like dreams. He finds himself in a space station inhabited by beautiful young women. As he tries to explore the dream realm he wakes up. His teacher, intrigued by his account of the bizarre adventure, urges him to travel back to the space station in his dream and report his discoveries to her. Eventually Kōji realizes that his dream and reality are tightly connected, and finds himself compelled to avert a grave danger.
Structure: Three routes with 3rd route to have four branches for different heroines, then there is an extra small kinetic route or something like that.
Length: Close to 10 hours, probably a bit less.
Game type: Space mindfuck mystery
Difficulty: Moderate. Flags are obscure so best to use guide.
Character Design rating: 7/10
Protagonist rating: 7/10
Story rating: 10/10
Game quality: 7/10
Overall rating: 8/10
Rating comments: Game is quite difficult to evaluate since there are two worlds with own sets of characters and there are even two protagonists (actually, even three) of varying charm. Not all the characters are cute, some look good only at CG. Game has great text but is lacking in some fields.
Protagonist: Quite and ordinary japanese student on one hand and much cooler The Greatest and Toughest Space Pirate, Genius and Universe Champion on the other hand. I liked the latter much more!
Characters:
Megumi - real world girl, your lover and her papa is medical center sponsor
Sayaka - real world government researcher
Ryouko-sensei - real world psychiatrist
Mai - real world Ryouko-sensei sister, participates in experiments as catalyst
Ranfa - space ship mechanic
Fal - space ship researcher
Tracy - space ship captain assistant
Bianca - space ship sleeping beauty in cryogenic chamber
Story:
It's not easy to tell this game's story without spoilers. And this game's charm is only due to this mindfuck state of mind in projects constantly. If I tell the contents of 3rd route, game will be stripped of half of its charm. So I'll only roughly retell first route. Game introduction shows Kouji being taken out of hypnosis state by psychiatrist Ryouko-sensei. And this scene is repeated like 10 times throughout the whole game and it's great for the atmosphere - sometimes it's real awakening, sometimes it's just a dream. After introduction we find ourselves in some hospital chamber, bump in some weird looking (some exposing uniform) girl then discover naked girl wired to some cryogenic coffin.
After that Kouji wakes up in the real world (I'll call it real for now although it's not that simple). He's questioned by Ryouko-sensei about what he remembered from the dream. Outside of the room he is greeted by Megumi, who claims to be his girlfriend and lover. There is also some strict government official lady Sayaka who does not let us go into computer room. And finally there is Mai girl who is very worried about Kouji condition. And from there it goes chaotic. This real world is constantly shifting with the dream world where there are four different space ship crew girls await - mechanic Ranfa, researcher Fal, captain assistant Tracy and sleeping beauty Bianca in cryogenic room (actually, it's the different sleeping girl, first one in the dream was actually Fal).
So Kouji gets thrown from one world to another, sometimes without warning - we share consciousness and even items while there, so basically we've found some media disk in one world and could find the device to play it only in another world. Furthermore, we hear voice of some man from time to time. In real world we try to know more about the hypnosis treatment we undergo and to get to the computer room. In the dream world there is even more action - we investigate the sleeping beauties, try to find out about our identity and once even blow the ship.
As for identity - that's another interesting story. Some ancient ruins were found on some planet and first research team was sent to investigate the ruins. Noone survived. Second research team was sent to investigate the fate of the first research team and.... noone survived, except Kouji. So everyone urges us to remember anything but in vain. Then there is the sleeping beauty Bianca who eventually wakes up and blames Kouji of killing the whole first and second research teams. Then there are reports that actually Kouji was not listed neither in 1st, nor in 2nd research team... So the main question of the game is WHAT am I? That's just an amazing start, but actually game does not live up to this fantastic start to the end.
First chapter ends when Megumi gets kidnapped and as we rush to rescue her we get caught by Ryouko-sensei and get another charge from the mind machine that burns 2000-30000 of brain fibers in Kouji's brain and in the dream world Kouji steals the shuttle and flies to the Eriteia planet with ancient ruins to meet with Ranfa who promises to give answers to all the questions - and we get first chapter end while man and woman promise each other to become new Adam and Eve while staying on some wasteland.
That is a fantastic first chapter. But then starts the second chapter and... Kouji just cries off the bat - I'm the Great Space Pirate, Genius and Champion of the Universe! So the beginning of the chapter feels like a comedy with most of the real world girls trying to calm him down and treat his craziness. But the sad part here that this is real space pirate who changed consciousness with Kouji and came 6000 years from the future. He's cool, reserved and he first persuades Rouko-sensei into being his slave, then with her hands does the same with Ryouko-sensei's sister Mami, then proposes to his girlfriend Megumi to become his wife, actually, slave wife! And together they manage to confront Sayaka successfully after some violent scene and burning 30k more of Kouji's brain vibers.
Third route finally gives some answers as we play as real-life Kouji on the space ship. Fourth route is just ero-bonus content, sadly. So what we have is awesome space mystery that gradually looses its mystery and turns into a set of ero-scenes.
Theme: The recurring theme of the game is that of the dream. What is reality? Is it possible to percieve what's real and what's not? Game tells us a definite - impossible to perceive. The Confucius symbol of butterfly in human's dream is used a lot. Mai directly asks Kouji to be a butterfly in her dream. Since dream is as important as reality it's best to live a full life and take full efforts even in dreams.
CG: There are very few event CG in this game and those few that exist are of bland palette.
Sound: Actually, it was to my liking. Especially the theme of Greatest Space Pirate was awesome. It's some heroic march so when it starts merrily, you always know that Kouji now has a different personality. And I totally adored the voicing of Rafna... she's the youngest character and her seiyu just did a miracle here with the special voice and intonations. And Rafna got the cutest character design and CGs on top of that.
Overall comments: Scenario is second to none and text is really good. Game mechanics are finally driven from commands selection to usual ADV type, so story can be enjoyed to a bigger extent. I can't recommend this game to everyone since it does not reach the level of other Mr. Keno's masterpieces. But I can totally recommend this game if you like the space mindfuck mystery setting or if like good writing. Personally, I adore Vladimir Nabokov's books. Of course he has well known masterpieces like "Lolita", but I can take any of his novels and open them at any part and just start reading - the text is so good, complex, multi-level and rich that I get great pleasure just from reading a couple of pages. The same goes to this work. The aftertaste might not be the best, but while you read there's much pleasure in the process.
There aren't masterpieces this month, but Koihime has my sincere sympathy.
1. Monzetsu Fighter 悶絶ファイター [950512] Trush 1 2
Long ago, there was an evil king who loved nothing more than to rape and torture beautiful women. He was so evil that it became taboo to even speak his name. He was slain by a woman that killed him through sex, but 300 years later he is reborn. In order to defeat this ancient evil, the greatest female warriors in the world face off to see who is worthy of fighting and defeating this terror.
Monzetsu Fighter is a card battle game where you play as a female warrior fighting other female warriors and occasionally a boss. Battles simulate rape fights and cards represent different ways of sexually attacking an opponent. As health decreases, characters get cuts, bruises, and lose clothes. The fight ends when one of the combatants passes out, of as the title says, faints in anguish.
There is an English review.
2. Sexpress セクスプレス [950512] Ange 1
The protagonist of the game is a young Japanese man who is lucky enough to win a ride on the S-Express, a miraculous train connecting Australia with Canada and going through almost the entire world with stops in Singapore, Japan, China, India, Israel, Russia, France, Ivory Coast, Brazil, Panama, and USA. Nearly the whole game is set on the train itself, with only a few locations accessible within.
There is a concept of time and each character acts according to his timetable like in Classmate. This is the most difficult type of visual novels and only masterpieces can survive here. And sexpress is very close to it. Heroines are very cute and charming, inspiring to clear the game despite the high difficulty.
3. Kankin 監禁 [950518] Illusion 1
The year is 2197. In order to be able to compete with the leading powers of the world, Japan was urbanized, huge city areas covering the entire country. In these huge, soulless cities, crime thrives. Violence is part of everyday life. Female police agents Sagoto, Kikuno, and Chisame are sent to Koube City to arrest drug dealers. But all goes wrong in the very beginning, and the young women fall victims to vicious criminals.
It's an Illusion game so it takes mere minutes for a spree of H events to begin.
4. Amy to Yobanaide エイミーと呼ばないでっ [950519] C's Ware 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
This is a story about a high-school girl named Emi, who fell in love with her younger step-brother. Finally, on her eighteenth birthday, she decides to tell him about her feelings. But suddenly, debt collectors arrive and confiscate everything your father possessed. Tomomi, Emi's step-brother, disappears. Now Emi must find him, her only true love, and to confess to him her feelings.
But on her journey, Emi discovers a different personality inside herself. This other person is called Amy. While the true Emi is a shy, modest girl, her Amy part cares mostly about one thing: to make real her wildest sexual fantasies...
Game is localized and has lots of English reviews.
5. Ballade for Maria マリアに捧げるバラード [950526] FAIRYTALE HARDCOVER 1
In "Ballade For Maria", you control Jake Spikes, a detective from New York. Recently, terrible murders have been happening in Boston. An unknown killer seeks out women and brutally murders them, cutting their hands off. Jake travels to Boston to unravel the mystery, finding out who is responsible for the murders.
It's from the same developer as Necronomicon, so you should know what to expect. Point and click shifted back to command selection with troublesome flags to find (way too many characters having way too many useless dialogue lines and topics to discuss). Game's main feature is depressive atmosphere so unlike Necronomicon it's a full-scale utsuge. Same as Necronomicon there are two endings - bad and very bad. As an experimental game, it has a lot of gore, but almost no nudity thus continuing Koroshi no Dress trend.
6. Koihime 恋姫 [950526] Silky's 1 2 3
Musashi returns to the remote country village where his grandmother lives after being away for 15 years. However, once he gets there, he finds that he has somehow forgotten four different girls whom he had promised to marry when he was a child.
There are two English reviews of this Elf game, but I'd wish to sum it up. Game is set in traditional japanese countryside and has vertical text display to underline this atmosphere. Text is good and full of gags and emotions. So is the tempo. But the volume is small so story is forced like all the girls are in love with the hero from the start. There are 14 good endings even though the story has no branches. By the end there are several battle sequences, but they are ok to loose. So this is a melancholy rural story with a touch of folklore mystics that was notable in 1995, but today there are hundreds of such works, it's not memorable enough to stand out even though both characters and drawing are very cute.
7. Mujintou Monogatari 2 無人島物語２ [950526] KSS Inc. 1
Mujintō Monogatari 2 is a follow-up to Mujintō Monogatari. Like its predecessor, it simulates survival of a group of people on a deserted island - this time, following a ship accident. The basic gameplay is very similar to that of the previous game. The player has to make schedules for the survivors, sending teams to procure necessary supplies such as water, food, light sources, building materials, etc. Only a small part of the island is accessible in the beginning: the player gradually explores it by arranging expeditions. It is possible to manage up to three parties of people, giving each an assignment, which unfolds automatically as the player chooses to complete a day. The survivors' attributes will change depending on the activities chosen by the player.
This time there are finally unique characters and dialogues on events. The basic gameplay stays the same - gather resources, synthesize them and use them to develop and survive. But that also sets the biggest problem - system has to be changed if unique characters and stories are introduced. You can't just leave it as survival strategy with just naming the characters and adding event dialogues. It's definitely more enjoyable than prequel, but still far from masterpiece level.
8. X -Ekkusu- X -エックス- [950526] Studio Mebius
Erika is a 16 year-old high-school student who receives lots of love letters from other girl students. One night space tax collector Seri lands on Erika killing her. In order to regain the body Erika needs to help Seri save the world in the next 500 hours by participating in various interstellar sex events.
In reality after the opening player is thrown to selection between 10 scenes at once. Yuri love in exotic space locations makes he gist of the game.
9. Himitsu Chouhou Buin - 00Nanako-chan 3 秘密諜報部員00ななこちゃんIII [9512] Overture
Parents of Nanako-chan go on a trip. At this time monsters attacks start to happen. Nanako-chan will need to solve this case together with her sister and childhood friend! Third game did not get a Windows version and thus remains obscure.
10. Sailor Bunny Daibakuhatsu セーラーバニー大縛発 [9512] Minto Club
Game is about training a bunny girl in exchange for pocket money.
An ero-centered doujin game.
11. Sinkha [9512] Marco Patrito 1 2 3 4
Sinkha tells the fascinating story of Hyleyn, a bold girl who lives in the mysterious city of Thalissar. This gigantic and gloomy agglomeration of howling metal, located on the hostile planet Ogon, proves to be of great interest to the Sinkha, a race of immortals who send their living starship Darcron to investigate.
There are many English reviews of this game, but what matters to me is that this is the first West originated visual novel and the first windows visual novel.
12. Virgin Angel ヴァージンエンジェル [9512] Crystal Soft 1
In 2080, Tokyo, the capital of Japan, became a center for daring scientific experiments, newest research in space ship technology, and organized crime. A new deadly drug was developed, that enhanced sexual experiences of human beings, eventually subduing their will and turning them into slaves of whoever possessed the drug. A special unit of the police force was assigned to investigate the crimes committed under the influence of the drug, and to find the criminals that distributed it. The player controls the young female investigator Amano Murakumo. Will she be able to survive in this hostile and terrifying world?..
Despite being a doujin game, it has some stunning visuals. There should be at least 4 endings since I saw 1st and 4th one but only 1st one is good while others being ero-centered bad endings.
Gensou no Idea ~Oratorio Phantasm Historia~ is my choice for the month with another great titles being Kimi to Kanojo to Kanojo no Koi. and Futagoza no Paradox . Clephas backed the last one back then and also Natsukumo Yururu which is too loli to even consider for me. Micchi throws four more colorful titles in.
1. Rou-Kyuu-Bu! Himitsu no Otoshimono ロウきゅーぶ！ ひみつのおとしもの [130620] Vridge Inc.
Continuation of basketball team struggle.

Then, he found out that his scent and bodily fluids attracted spirit takers and made them excited, and this effect extended even to the Nosferatu. They made him live with them at their dorm in order to ‘protect’ him, but in reality… has he become their toy?

14. Otome wa Karen ni Koi ni Mai! 乙女は可憐に恋に舞いっ！ [130628] Klein
During one lunch break, Tomoki dozed off in a corner of the school courtyard and woke up on the lap of a beautiful girl he hadn’t seen before. The next day, the girl Naori joined his class to retake the second year of school which she missed due to illness. Not soon thereafter, his friend Minagi and kouhai Hazuki joined the ‘ruling party’ that Naori revived to keep the over-earnest student council led by her best friend Erika in check. He finds himself unwillingly caught in the middle of all of this.
An ordinary school club story with weak writing and lack of explanation. Only worth playing for particular heroines.
15. Prestar ~Precious Star's Festival~ プレスタ！～Precious☆Star’sフェスティバル～ [130628] Atelier Kaguya Fortissimo FF
Hibikinomori Gakuen is a huge school with a wide variety of specializations, some of them quite different from standard ones. Yoshitaka is in the general education curriculum, but he felt like he had made no precious memories since entering the school. His best friend Suminao jokingly suggested that he be the producer for this year’s Precious☆Star’s Festival (also known as Prestar), the flashy concert which is the focus of the school festival. He was able to get the position with some difficulty, but what surprised him was that all the performers were all-stars: a highly-popular top idol, a world-famous pianist, a pro mangaka/illustrator and a promising Olympian in rhythmic gymnastics. Will he be able to make Prestar a success?
Atelier Kaguya always bears strong nukige tilt, but with enough cuteness poured in they made a moege out of this. Still nothing to boast of.
16. Sensui-bu! せんすいぶ！ [130628] Escu:de
In this country where it’s slightly warmer due to global warming, the hottest thing is a new female-only water sport called "sensui", where girls ride torpedo-like high-performance mini-subs called ‘MAV’s and try to knock down their opponents by shooting special water attacks at them. The sensui team at Aosaki Academy doesn’t have enough members nor do they perform well in competitions. However, the club leader Maasa is determined to turn around the fortunes of the school by enlisting a sensui ace Mito to the team. The four girls (Mito, Alice, Maasa, Rikoko) are managed by a male coach, Riku, whose dream of becoming a sensui player was dashed due to the gender restriction. Together, they aim to compete and win the national competition, the Wassergrahl.

I feel that I can safely call Natsu no Ame VN of the Month. Sorairo I'm also taking up for review, because I don't want to choose between the two. Lastly, there's Eden* They Were Only Two, On The Planet. that I remember as a nice short atmospheric game. Micchi was of pretty much the same opinion except for Natsu no Ame since it was difficult to except an overwhelming masterpiece from a new brand.

Somewhere in the vast sea of the Internet, there's a website that can only be accessed at midnight. Rumor states that if grudge is posted there, Hell Girl will appear and drag offender to inferno. All we know about this girl is that she lives with her equally enigmatic grandmother and that three straw dolls accompany her.

4. Angel Navigate [090918] Aries 1
Souta is back to his hometown after an interval of several years. He and his younger sister, Koharu, start living at Hinako's, their childhood friend's, house. On his first day at a new school, he met a girl and soon falls in love with her. Souta isn't actually good at talking with girls, so a friend of his introduces him to a website called Angel Navigate, where people talk about love. Souta decides to visit the website anonymously...
Common route is too short, half an hour or so, and individual routes aren't much bigger - two hours on average. After characters meet in real world, all internet dating setting goes to trash bin. Dialogues aren't interesting, so I believe I can safely condemn it as moege.
5. Distance Distance -ディスタンス- [090918] Silksoft 1
"Can you become a coach of the track and field club?" Taka gets interested in the offer. That accident ruined his hopeful school life and future.... He has been doing rehabilitation hard, so it is really a great offer. Even if his position changes, he is glad to engage in the track and field again. He decides to accept the offer with hope in mind, but various troubles happen...
The good thing is that four heroines train as a team, so other heroines do not disappear suddenly. Protagonist is serious. Each heroine has a different story and ending. But game lacks refinement, and quality is below average.

7. Hime x Hime 姫×姫（ヒメヒメ） [090918] Etoiles
There is a famous school where rich boys and girls belong to. The school has a traditional custom that a girl called princess governs the school. The main character accidentally enters the school though he is just an average student. But he can't move to a school dormitory because of some troubles, so he starts living at Saki's, the current princess, room. Saki is selfish and he works as her tool. He doesn't like his school life at first, but he gradually gets attracted to Saki...
Princess school setting is a thick red line for me. Even assassination line is taken directly from Shield 9. Personalities are rather bright, so can be ok for those who like such setting.
8. Koibumi Romantica 恋文ロマンチカ [090918] ChuableSoft 1
Here's our young man, Yuge Fumito.
"I'll become a writer!" he vows to himself, and rides a train to the magnificent city of Tokyo!

There are witches in the world. They have special power like an old magic. But the word "witch" means "assassination" in the modern world. Witches establish their own organization and run a business to secretly assassinate people. Shion has power to "curse people dead". He receives a job offer, completes it, gets a reward and goes back home. He just repeats the same day.... But one day, he just goes home on a different route and meets a girl called Ai along the way. They become friends, but this is just a beginning of ruin.... They, however, decide to walk together to step out of their boring life...
Serious atmosphere is hurt by lack of explanation. Instead, same story is shown from different characters perspective... which still does not explain much. A lot of confusing stuff combined with low overall quality in every field.
10. Momoiro Guardian ももいろガーディアン [090918] Alice Soft
One day, Takuma's mother says to him, "You'll be the Maou when your next birthday comes." Though he doesn't believe it at all, a girl suddenly appears in front of him to hunt him down and another girl tries to save him. These girls also transfer to his school and start living at his house...
Alice Soft H tilt is so big that I had to block their last title as nukige. In this case it's claimed to be an absurdist comedy which is of course a shallow low-price story-less opportunistic nukige. Tsundere flag is the only thing that can make someone play this game.
11. Sorairo そらいろ [090918] NekoNeko Soft 1
You start off as Kenji, a pretty ordinary kid (yes you start off as a kid) who’s visiting his aunt during the holidays with his father. There, he meets his cousin Ai, a quiet girl who is just one year younger than him. They were left together in the house so they went out to the nearby sea to play.
But because Ai was so quiet, Kenji decided to play alone in the sea while Ai looked at him from the beach. Going back home, Ai lied to her mother that they had fun together. This continued right up till the end of the summer holidays.
Feeling really guilty, Kenji decided to be more friendly towards her. The next year, he took the initiative and played with her. Another year passes by and he came over to her town for the holidays. They are already extremely good friends and look forward to each others company.
Then the bombshell was dropped. Their parents were getting married. But they were still young and didn’t really understand what was happening. The only thing they knew was that they are now siblings. Kenji now stays in the same town as Ai and lives together with her. New neighbors, new friends and new adventures await.

12. Hapitora -Happy Transportation- はぴとら－HappyTransportation－ [090925] Bloom Handle
The protagonist Tio, who lives on a small island, runs an air transportation company. He lost his parents when he was still young, so he has been working hard with the help of other workers. One day, he decides to temporarily leave the island to learn how to fly an aircraft. But when he comes back to the island a while later, he finds there is only one worker, Aina. His company is about to go bankrupt. Raica, his childhood friend, knows it and says she will join the company, but she is actually a very clumsy girl. Will Tio be able to get through this crisis?
Let's rebuild family business and create harem - yay... Text power is weak, so there's just not enough persuasiveness or excitement.
13. Mahou Shoujo no Taisetsu na Koto. 魔法少女の大切なこと。 [090925] Meromero Cute
The main character is an average student (except for his pretty appearance). He has moved to a school on the island to look for his missing mother. But an upside-down chapel that appears in the sky at night, evil shadows generated by the chapel and various mysterious happenings keep bugging people on the island. He inevitably gets involved in this trouble and he transforms into a magical girl (?) when he faces one of the shadows. Days later, he hears the fact that his mother is actually a magical girl. Like this, his battle life against the shadows starts...
Perverted hermaphrodite protagonist and loli magical girls make a basis for a solid story (NOT).

Charage with some humor. All girls are in love and fight for protagonist confessing to him at the same time. Hello, harem. Individual routes are rather normal and quality is high, so it mends prologue stupidity to an extent.

1. Mirage 2 - Torry x Neat x Roan no Daibouken ミラージュ２ トリーＸニートＸローンの大冒険 [940309] Discovery 1 2
The sequel to Mirage is set in the same world and features some recurrent characters, although the protagonist and the story are different. The main character is a young monster hunter named Etranze. He needs to slay a certain amount of monsters to reach a higher level, but meanwhile is struggling to be accepted among other heroes. This changes when he befriends Torry, Neat, and Roan, the three lovely ladies who work (of all places) in the local church. Soon Etranze is summoned by queen Irene, who sends him on a quest to find a magical artifact that will save her kingdom from great peril.
You travel with the youngest of sisters Tree only as your support. A very solid user-friendly RPG with a good balance. Quite simple in systems, but that may be only for the best. Story scale is large and there's lots of depth, so the game sets a very high level standard for future RPGs. A masterpiece, of course.
2. Houma Hunter Lime Dai 10 Wa 宝魔ハンターライム 第１０話 [940310] Silence 1
In this episode Lime, Bass, Mizuki and Kokona travel to the countryside. The girls decide to visit the hot tub, leaving Bass outside. A friendly BEM from a previous encounter appears and suggests that its kind may be used by the heroes to further their goals.
More fooling around before the final! And it was high time for a fanservice episode, so here you go a hot springs episode. And the result is three monster jewels at once.
3. LIKE [940311] Ange
Hero is summoned from America by his father and forcibly put into all girls school to find a bride.
After releasing "Kiss" Ange got a lot of attention. And Ange had really cute character designs. There are only three commands to choose from, so system-wise it's a step back from "Kiss". There are all kinds of girls, but need to choose just one and turn everyone else down. But if decision is made, game goes right to ending and that was weird. The only bright point is actually the ending where you get to see the afterstories of each of girls you dumped. So it's a charage through and through, and rather mediocre one.
4. Viper-V10 [940311] Sogna 1 2
The third Viper has the same structure as the two previous entries: three unrelated stories with little interaction, but many animated sex scenes.
The stories this time are:
Northern Lights describes a competition between two young apprentices of kendo. The protagonist, a young boy, is challenging the girl Asuka, who claims to be better than him. He needs to practice in order to win, especially because Asuka promised him she will do whatever he wants if he defeats her...
Children's Play tells the story of a teenage girl named Yuki, who is in love with an older school mate. One morning she goes to school, only to discover that someone has made pictures of her masturbating to the boy's photo...
Read Under follows the adventures of a team of three female soldiers who have to infiltrate the base of an evil robot simply known as "Boss". One of them is captured, and the other two have to save her at all costs.
There is an English review and it's more than enough for a collection of short animated H stories.
5. Fechi ふぇち [940318] Cat's Pro. 1
Feti is a short game that doesn't have a real plot; its entire text is a conversation between two "office ladies" (sometimes shortened in Japanese language usage to "OL"), Eri and Kazumi. They chat mostly about men, clothes, and sex. The conversation develops, until the two young women begin to get intimate with each other.
Game focuses on several fetishes at once including peeping fetish, of course. It's definitely an unusual game, but it's only two diskettes, so the lack of contents does not let it to pretend for something more.
6. Possessioner ポゼッショナー [940318] Queen Soft 1 2
he year is 2035. A series of mysterious incidents began to occur in Tokyo. Young women disappeared under strange circumstances, and returned brainwashed, commanding armies of bionic monsters and assaulting human settlements. Such women were called "Possessioners". A special all-female squad was formed to face them in combat and bring them back to humanity.
Game has a cool SF setting and CG, but actually it feels more like an eroge with the systems akin to Choukou Sennin Haruka. You constantly fight with your 4-girl team and watch lesbo scenes after each fight with the lost side. Fights are actually very challenging, so need to know well the strong sides of each girl and eliminate weaker enemies very fast. So it's pretty much a lesbian eroge, but the first to originate from battle rpg mix.
7. Injuu Gakuen ~La Blue Girl~ 淫獣学園 ～Ｌａ★Ｂｌｕｅ Ｇｉｒｌ～ [940324] Dez Climax 1 2
Miko was just an ordinary Japanese teenager attending the prestigious private Himenogi Girls High School. Everything began to change when she witnessed two of her classmates making love to each other. While taking part in various sexual activities, Miko gradually realizes that supernatural demonic forces have taken control of the school.
Based on manga by Toshio Maeda.
La blue girl is probably the most famous hentai franchise. There's a good English review of it.
8. Emit Vol. 1: Toki no Maigo EMIT Vol.1: 時の迷子 [940325] Koei 1 2 3
Emit is an adventure game that is the first entry of Shibusawa Kou's "English Dream" series. The purpose behind the projects was to teach Japanese people the English language with the help of a thrilling narrative.
On October 5, 1994, a seventeen year old high school student named Yuri meets a polite yet mysterious elderly gentleman at the crosswalk. Although puzzled by his questions, she answers them honestly to the best of her ability. As Yuri walks across the street, she hears the man mutter the word "Emit" to her. Yuri thinks nothing of the conversation until an oddly familiar yet attractive young man approaches her a month later on the street.
There are English reviews.
9. Yami no Ryousen 闇の稜線 [940325] Illusion
A car fell from the cliff and its driver is heavily wounded. He lies on the side of the cliff bleeding and awaiting his last seconds to tick. The driver wakes up in the house bandaged, but with a light memory loss. He was found and helped by a local family. First thing he gets to remember is that he went on a trip to ask Mayumi's father for marriage permission. But at the moment that he arrived, villa got attacked. Mayumi was raped and killed. He discovers from the newspaper that he is the main suspect and now it's the time to go undercover and find out the truth.
The game actually starts as main hero lies on the cliff and it's by the end of it when he goes to uncover the truth. It's a suspense mystery story so during villa attack memory flash it's important to take notes to take a trail. But at the same time it's also a borderline work with strong NTR motive. Scenario alone has a lot of impact, but the game system here is absolutely outstanding as well. There aren't commands like watch, talk etc. Instead, there is a set of commands unique for each scene. Some of them are needed to be repeated at times. Another surprising feature is animation - it's not just eyes and lips, but also other parts of body, which is rare. At times text takes full screen as NVL, but most of the time it's kept compact in the right down corner. I really wanted to like this first Illusion game, but it ended up a nukige with some plot as side-dish. I struggled through first three scenes during the first hour of play, but when the heavily wounded hero regains consciousness only to see the hostess riding on top of him I lost all the hope in the story.

1. Hatsukoi Monogatari 初恋物語 [930305] Game Technopolis 1 2
An ordinary Japanese student finds a floppy disk on the street; using his computer to load data from it, he miraculously summons Foltjunia, an intergalactic warrior who fights evil in her robotic armor with three companions. However, Foltjunia has lost her powers and as a result stays with the hero, giving him advice as to how to conquer the love of a schoolmate.
Game Technopolis games have always been weird AND bad. It's not an exception, as usual. Biggest flaw lies with the system. SLG elements are overflowing for a sim. Text usually takes half of the screen, images are small. BGM is monotonous. Mouse is not responsive... In this raising sim... you're even raising the protagonist to suit the girl. Maybe it was novelty and all, but production values were not high enough to enjoy it.
2. Bell's Avenue ベルズアベニュー [930312] Wendy Magazine 1
Bell's Avenue is a collection of three very short games, all of which play like minimalist Japanese-style adventures and have stories that revolve around sex. The interaction follows the standard verb-command "Look-Talk-Think" template, without any sub-menus that would allow interaction with different objects.
The Lyrical Story After Rain, the shortest of the three, is an episode from the life of a lonely teenage girl, who meets another young girl on the train and later has erotic fantasies involving her.
Paragon Wing Bird is considerably longer and has a sci-fi theme, the protagonist being a male adventurer from the Earth, who has encountered a race of human-like creatures in deep space and is interested in their sexual traditions.
Kara is the longest of the three, is set in a high school, and describes a group of young girls who are eager to have their first sexual experience. This game allows menu-based navigation through various locations in the school and non-linear story progression, which can change depending on the player's choice and order of locations to visit.
Bell's Avenue also contains Under Deep, a very short futuristic story, basically consisting of two bizarre sex scenes and having no interaction at all, and Minimum Hour, which presents, in a comical way, a few ideas for sex-based arcade games, which are not playable.
Yet another multiple ero-oriented stories under one title. This time even without cute heroines. And since it's Wendy Magazine, without males.
3. Marine Philt マリンフィルト [930312] Fairytale 1 2 3 4
In the first half of the 21st century, humanity started building space satellites, trying to sustain the working conditions in outer space by using a drug known as Marine Philt. Eventually the project was abandoned. One of the deserted satellites fell onto the Earth, causing a radioactive accident that forced the inhabitants of Neo Tokyo to dwell underground. One day, a young man named Seed heard a news report about a gruesome murder that occurred in a research facility. Together with his friends, Seed ventures into the building, only to discover another horrifying result of the satellite crash, which may put the entire city in immense danger.

4. YES! - Youthful Eager Stories [930312] Himeya Soft
A collection of three short stories:
1) "Last kingdom" is about the queen being escorted out of the kingdom by the guards due to the order of the king who is about to meet kingdom destruction.
2) "BT-3" is a love story between the android BT-3 who suffers a space shuttle crash and a local girl, who gets involved in fight after pursuers find the crash location.
3) "Western mansion vampire" is a about a school girl who enters a western mansion to rescue her friend who was missing after visiting that place.
Whoa, even Himeya Soft followed the craze and made its own multiple stories game. But unlike the other companies these three stories are short and ero-centered, but scenario driven and and intriguing to read. Both character design and CG styles are familiar to me, so I enjoyed the work moderately.
5. Aa! Megami-sama! ああっ女神さまっ [930320] Banpresto 1 2 3 4

6. Marginal Storys マージナルストーリーズ [930331] Forest 1
Marginal Storys (sic) is composed of two short visual novels, which are accessible from the main menu and are not related to each other story-wise.
The first one, entitled Forbidden Rhythm, is a bizarre horror story. The protagonist, a young man named Kyouichi, finds himself in an old mansion, which seems to contain an evil energy - dead bodies, ghosts, apparitions haunt Kyouichi, who has to recall childhood events and the incestuous feelings towards his sister.
The second story is named Cosplaytor II (sic), and is set in Tokyo, in 2019. Entertainment as we know it has disappeared off the face of the Earth, replaced by a global virtual reality game, that became the ultimate reality for many people. The player controls an agent known only by his codename ("Z"), who has to investigate criminal occurrences that might lead to a world-wide cyber-conspiracy.
I'm prejudiced against multiple stories works, but this work stands out among those. The reason is the horror atmosphere that's created partly by peculiar palette and drawing, but mostly thanks to the great sound support. Those cicada sounds get really stuck in the mind. The shortness and the hazy ending leaving the conclusive events to the imagination hurt the overall impression, not leaving it rise as a masterpiece.
7. Wonpara Wars ＷＯＮＰＡＲＡウォーズ [930331] Mink 1 2 3
God has created a paradise called Wandante. Men, women, and animals lived together in peace. But where there is God, there is also Devil; where there is love, there is also hatred. The hatred between men and women grew, until it resulted in a bloody war. Having superior physical strength, men were victorious for a while - until female demons offered their help to women's army. Men's army was nearly destroyed. It was at that time that the hero, named Leopard Chateau-Lyon, appeared in Wandante. He is the only hope of the men, the one who will have to defeat the demonic women and to bring peace to both genders.

8. Psychic Detective Series Final Vol. 7: Solitude (Gekan) サイキック・ディテクティブ・シリーズ・ファイナル Vol.7 ソリチュード（下巻）[9303] DataWest
Katsuya Furuyagi lost the psychic ability, so he dives into the mind of his former lover in coma state Aya Shingonji with the help of Rosemary. Will he bring back his love to the world of light, get over his trauma and perhaps save the world or is there only desperation ahead?
First of all, the game cost 12,800 yen upon release, same as the 6th part of the series, so quite few fans decided to buy the game after the negative reception of 6th part. The tempo of the game got even worse due to the need to move through the rooms one by one thoroughly searching them over and using DAPS replay ability. There are puzzles and to solve those many recollection scenes are shown which was watching the same scenes again for the veterans of the series. There is no such thing as happy ending in this last work and thus the aftertaste is quite sour.
Tsui no Sora Remake is more than just a remake and is VN of the Month. Other worthy competitors include Akatsuki Yureru Koi Akari and Hoshizora Tetsudou to Shiro no Tabi . Kara no Shoujo - The Last Episode is also supposed to be good for those who care about depressing games.

3. Gensou Rougoku no Kaleidoscope 幻想牢獄のカレイドスコープ [201217] 07th Expansion 1
Four girls, locked in an unfamiliar and ominous room.
When, how, by who, and to where were these close friends kidnapped? It was all unclear. None of the girls have any recollection of a place like this.
At some point, an iron collar was attached to each of the girls' necks. Those collars were connected to chains, and each chain was connected to a chair at one of the room's four corners. These were torture chairs that give off an ominous impression.
Four girls frightened in an ominous room with no exit. There, a large cage appeared from the ceiling. Inside, a boy was trapped. The white-robed boy is unable to communicate, and even his emotions show no variation. He, too, must likely be a "prisoner" such as the girls…
"In any case, we need to think of a way to get out of here…!"
"Let me tell you how to escape."
An ominous voice echoed throughout the room.
"I have prepared two fates for all of you. One where everyone in this room dies. The other where only three girls are saved. This is a trial to test the fate of you four.
When the time limit expires, everyone in this room will die."
A group of girls, suddenly attacked by a deadly premonition and hair-raising horror…

4. Hoshizora Tetsudou to Shiro no Tabi 星空鉄道とシロの旅 [201230] Shiratamaco
The steam train I jumped onto pulled out of the darkness of the night, and ran beneath the starry sky.
It's been a good trip. I was right to have taken this tour.
A pleasant night breeze blew as I continued my carefree solitary journey. I met kind passengers and a cute conductor. As well as... a girl with cat ears?
What will this journey leave behind inside of her?
And what might it give to me?
A short all-age work lasting for some ten hours along one road with choices not affecting anything serious. It's a gentle world, but characters are interesting and there are a lot of small mysteries scattered around. By the second half tempo improves and Unity engine stops to bother. A wonderful heartwarming tribute to Miyazawa Kenji's Night on the Galactic Railroad.

6. Koinoha -Koi no Share House- コイノハ -恋のシェアハウス- [201225] Sky Rocket 1
Because of his cowardly nature, Kousaka Iori never had a girlfriend, let alone a friend. Now that he was entering high school, Iori decided to attend a school far away so he can start fresh and make some friends in hopes of leading a better, happier life.
First things first, Iori chose to move into a share house for fellow gamers, since it would be easier to improve his communication skills with people who share the same hobbies as him. If he manages to gain enough experience from this, surely Iori would get a girlfriend.
Iori had high hopes that everything was going to go swimmingly, from his new school life and his new living situation. He'll be able to meet people with the same interests as him. And a willing opponent to play against will always be nearby. He would be able to talk to his heart's content. With a spring in his step and a gleam in eyes, Iori opened the door to his new share house, excited to finally fulfill his dream.
But alas, as Iori opened the door and walked into his new home, his eyes jumped...
As before him was a group of beautiful girls, something he was only supposed to encounter after he leveled up.

Two previous games of Hamham Soft were pretty much nukige, so even bakage looks like a step forward. We choose a girl, location and theme of a program and shoot it with the outcome of either satisfied or angry sponsor. Only the program itself is interesting, and thanks to high variability interest can keep up for a while.

Global warming had caused the water to rise, covering more than half the land. At the same time, an outbreak of the Satori disease wiped out half of the world’s population. It is said that everyone has been infected with the disease and it’s only a matter of time before the symptoms show. While at the hospital, Wataru meets Akari and her kindness and smile captures his heart.
Prequel was rather difficult to understand, but this time it's a straightforward poetic and only occasionally sad love story on the brink of world's collapse. Both main heroines and sub heroines are full of charm, so it's a decent charage.

Shinichi is a pretty typical guy, except that his childhood friend who lives next door is one of the smartest and most beautiful girls in the school. Her name is Kanami and their relationship is akin to siblings since they’ve been together for so long. One day when they were taking shelter from the rain, they accidentally broke an old relic and Hiwa, the fox spirit that rules over the land, punished them by placing a curse on them. Soon, the school views them as a couple and their parents wants them to marry, even though they don’t have feelings for each other. The only way to break this ‘curse’ is to kiss each other whenever they’re told to.
Game is based around kisses and flirt. There is a good variety of four heroines, plus bonus one that is not cursed. Evaluation greatly depends on affinity to such concept and individual heroine appeal.

School is closed due to raging snowstorm. Main character manages to get there due to a promise given to his girlfriend. But weather deteriorates rapidly, and there is no way back anymore. A group of students and a teacher get trapped at this empty building in the sea of snow. There is not much to do, so students organize to pursue legendary school wonders. It's not mystery that they find, but something totally unexpected...
Love story in hindered conditions won't get old, not after those KID games. Transformation of characters is depicted well even though sometimes it feels that some text is missing to describe motivations - actions feel sudden at times. There is fantasy element, but it feels natural in the school wonders setting. It is a nice change from the usual school romance games.
4. Majipuri -Wonder Cradle- まじぷり -Wonder Cradle- [040604] Purple Software
One day, the protagonist Makoto Himekawa was going to his school, Shiroha Academy, when he came upon a girl going crazy by a vending machine. He went to help her, but ended up drenching her in soda instead. After a light argument, the protagonist christened this girl "Trouble Woman". Due to this he was late for school, and barely made it to homeroom. And there, it seemed that there was an exchange student. But that exchange student was ... the "Trouble Woman"!
Thus, with the appearance of the exchange student Yuuri Ashitaba, Makoto's ordinary school life took a sudden turn for the decidedly non-boring, and through the athletic festival, the cultural festival, and even the autumn leaf festival, the chaos of his life quickly increased. And then, he was swallowed up in an unexpected incident ...
Kind of onii-chan game. Someone counted that onii-chan is pronounced 997 times here. Quality varies from one root to another. Game's definitely not for scenario-oriented people.
5. Natsu no Tomoshibi 夏の燈火 [040606] 1
One day a young boy arrived at this village, holding a letter in one hand and his sister's hand in the other.
They had no place left to go but the address written in the letter he was holding. Since they traveled with one-way tickets, there was no way back. In the end, they were accepted as a part of the family living at the address written in the message, and started their new life in the village. A village full of spirits and protected by gods summoned into mirrors...
It's a doujin game, but since it's first Looseboy scenario I won't block it. It's a straight nakige with only two heroines for capture, about 6-7 hours per heroine. There is just one H event for each heroine. Game has to do with sickness and is not really interesting per se, especially with the rural monster introduction. But game text is really good. Only length actually reminds that it's still a doujin game.
6. MinDeaD BlooD ~Shihaisha no Tame no Kyoushikyoku~ MinDeaD BlooD ～支配者の為の狂死曲～ [040611] Black Cyc 1 2 3 4 5
Just off the coast of mainland Japan is the island of Chisakura, home to a city of the same name, where the heralds of darkness are slowly gathering. Host to a prosperous economy, with a nationally renowned academic institution for young women and an equally upstanding medical research facility, the community has unwittingly attracted the attentions of dreaded supernatural creatures with few equals: vampires. Yet even these immortal predators have daring individuals who hunt them, and a secret war between the two powers is quickly racing to an apocalyptic conclusion. At the center of this nightmarish struggle is a man who has the potential to tip the scales in favor of one side or the other. His choice of allies - the hunters, the vampires, or none at all - may very well determine the fate of humanity and the undead.

7. Oratorio ~Umi yori Aoi Natsu no Kanata de~ ORATORIO～海より青い夏の彼方で～ [040611] Unchain
Main character studies at geophysics faculty. He receives a report mentioning his native island being in danger of volcano eruption this summer. He arrives to his native town and meets a lot of relatives and childhood acquaintances there. Strangely, volcano shows no signs of activity yet besides slight shakes...
Game shines for its directorship and animation. Both protagonist and heroines are depicted very realistically, but there's not much in the story department, to be honest. There is unique charm and fresh ideas in this game which alone qualifies for a masterpiece.
8. Tantei Jinguuji Saburou Series No.03: Kiken na Futari 探偵 神宮寺三郎 Series No.03 危険な二人 [040623] WorkJam 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
Detective Hunter and his assistant Yulia have been invited to watch Yulia's friend Sabin participate in a motorcycle race.

9. DearS ディアーズ [040624] Vridge Inc. 1
A visual novel based on the manga and anime series "DearS". A "game original" character, not seen in the manga or anime, makes an appearance.

Her oblivious tenacity keeps her around, however, and over time, realizing Ren's genuine care and empathy for him, Takeya has a change of heart. Unfortunately, because Ren is deemed defective, DearS headquarters orders her arrested.
SIM games are just no go for me.
10. Memories Off ~Sorekara~ Memories Off ～それから～ [040624] KID 1 2 3
Inori was looking forward to go to the annual Ashikajima Fireworks Display with Isshu this summer. They had made a promise to always go to the fireworks festival together, since that was the place that they orginally became a couple. But Isshu said he wouldn't able to go because of his part time job. That day would fall on their two year anniversary.

12. Angel Egg [040625] You & I
You're a high school student who's secretly an accomplished writer.
All the upperclassmen of the drama club suddenly decide to quit due to a conflict, and the remains of the club need to do a play for the upcoming school festival. You end up being responsible for the script.
Everything is painful about this game. Text depictions, boring characters, inconsistencies... It's a light work, but can't really be recommended.
13. Doko e Iku no, Ano Hi 何処へ行くの、あの日 [040625] Moonstone 1 2
I killed a girl. Who was she...?
The protagonist, Kunimi Kyousuke can't remember the memories of his distant past. Even the details are vague, merely appearing as flashes in his heart. "I am certainly the one who with this hand did that to the lone girl", he keeps thinking, but can't even remember the time or place it happened. But the memories are slowly entering his mind. He remembers the corpse... How will Kyousuke deal with his supposed sin?

14. Innocence pain ~Michiru Yami Kakeru Tsuki~ Innocence pain～満ちる闇 欠ける月～ [040625] Ankh
Main character is a new teacher at girls academy where witch legend is popular. He pays little attention to this story, but one day occult-looking events lead to student injury. Similar incidents continue while the culprit remains unknown. Protagonist starts his own investigation.
Game is described as a suspense story, but it's mostly normal SOL in girls school. There is very short story involved, so they have to pour lots of water and insert insult scenes at random. Game produces rather weak impression.
15. Miko-san Hosoude Hanjouki 巫女さん細腕繁盛記 [040625] Studio Ryokucha
Main character receives priest education and returns from Tokyo to his home town. But the local shrine is on the verge of bankruptcy. Protagonist needs to work hard alongside cute shrine maidens and childhood friends. Who will be his girlfriend during the festival?
Light comedy game, but of mediocre quality. First half is somewhat saved by gags, but there is no charm of the heroines. The hinted conflict with the enemy has thin presence.
16. Night Wizard Mahou Taisen ~The Peace Plan to Save the World~ ナイトウィザード 魔法大戦～The Peace Plan to Save the World～ [040625] Rune
Peaceful school life is interrupted by a transfer student arrival. Newcomer vows to kill main character who has his abilities awakened shortly afterwards. With the power of science and magic protagonist needs to defeat demons and save the world in card battles.
You need only wins, so upon losing in battle game just restarts the card battle. World is based on tabletop RPG Night Wizard released in 2002, so is rather rich in detail. Each route takes some 10 hours, but it's impossible to skip battles, so it get bothersome from the second lap. Each heroine has two H events, plus there's a number of sub-heroines. There's nothing that stands out here.
17. Rakuen ~Ai Kawarazu na Boku no Baai~ らくえん～あいかわらずなぼく。の場合～ [040625] TerraLunar 1 2 3 4 5
The player takes the role of a nameless protagonist that the script refers to as Boku. Boku is a ronin that moves to Tokyo in hopes of being able to study and prepare himself for the university entrance exams. His hobbies as an artist and the myriad of temptations of the big city have kind of caused him to waste his time away, playing games and watching anime instead of focusing on studying. His need for a job eventually landed him a job at MoonEarth, an eroge studio that at the time was needing a character designer. The studio's fate takes a turn for the worse when the scenario writer decides to entirely drop out just as the crew is producing their first title.
Seeing as the fledgeling studio is under a lot of scrutiny from its parent companies, this turn of events places MoonEarth in a very sticky situation. As such, the story focuses on MoonEarth's budget problems (the project director likes gambling budget money away by playing pachinko), scheduling issues (the lack of a scenario writer means EVERYTHING from character designs to CGs to BGMs and Voice Actor casting is delayed as well), and eventual crunch-time (since as of the game's start, MoonEarth has one month to create a game from scratch) as they trudge their way to releasing their first title, a game called Ai kawarazu na boku.

18. Sora no Iro, Mizu no Iro そらのいろ、みずのいろ [040625] Ciel 1
Asa & Natsume are both in love with Hajime Saisho. Instead of fighting over him, they both promised to share him equally. However, both girls have to leave him by the end of the summer. As the summer days go by, they each spend their precious time with Hajime, while the day of their fated departure draws near.
Game was in many people's wish-lists, but upon release it could not really boast something more than just another Tony's works graphics borderline nukige. It failed to please pure love fans because of its NTR tilt. It could not please nukige fans because of long exhausting monotonous routes without letting any steam out.
19. Suzukuri Dragon 巣作りドラゴン [040625] SofthouseChara 1 2 3 4 5
The setting is Middle Ages Europe style.

Kidnapping women infected with the field near the capital. Behind all this there was the ominous shadow of the city and metroplita namestgnika King Song.

300 years of holy wars behind and to the world once again wanted to experience the pain ....
Game's not blocked for lolicon issues just because it's a decent enough RPG. Difficulty level is high, especially for boss, so grinding for best equipment is mandatory. Battle system is crippled, but there's high degree of freedom during battle and for distributing stats on lvl-up. From the second lap play is much easier, and some battles can be skipped.
2. Umi kara Kuru Mono 海からくるもの [030905] FlyingShine 1 2
It's a world of artifacts left from prehistoric sea civilization that sometimes give birth to supernatural abilities. Such humans are called "Lef" and over-watched by the state. Two people with such powers just awakened drown the school in terror.
It's depression plus insult SF game. We play from the viewpoint of one of the protagonist, but the link between them becomes hinted only in the ending. I'm still not over BM0 to get into another game like that.
3. Minato Gensou ~Venice Fantastica~ 水都幻想 ~Venice Fantastica~ [030912] Wing
The protagonist is the son of a noble family, who, unable to agree to be part of a political arranged marriage, runs away. Without a place to go, he eventually arrives at a place of a baroness who is a long associate of his father. Hearing his story, the baroness offers him room and board. In return, she requests that he take over the worldly education of three girls under her care. Two are merchant and noble daughters preparing for marriage; the third is a prostitute from a foreign country.
Text is good and forms unique worldview and atmosphere. Protagonist here is quite a normal more or less shy boy, so game does not fall into training game as synopsis wants us to believe. Volume is lacking, and simultaneous capture of three heroines is possible leaving very little time for individual ending.

5. Shoujo Yoshitsuneden 少女義経伝 [030918] Vridge Inc. 1 2
An ordinary second-year high school student is on a class field trip to Kyoto, the heart of traditional Japanese culture. One night, as a penalty for losing a game to some of his friends, he is forced to attempt to sneak into the girls' bathing area to peep on them. However, he is caught, and falls into the bath, suddenly being surrounded by a strange light. When he comes to, he finds that he has somehow been transported back in time to the late 12th century, at the twilight of the Heian period of Japanese history. Having been dragged into this crucial historical period, he is forced to come to terms with what to do, while also struggling to understand why he was transported back eight centuries in time... Shoujo Yoshitsuneden (lit. The Tale of the Yoshitsune Girl) is a tactical RPG with romantic & visual novel elements. The game's structure is broken up into chapters, and the story is primarily told in the visual novel format, with battle sequences being interspersed throughout. The (nameable) protagonist can also pursue relationships with the various heroines, and the game's ending hinges on which one the player has chosen to become the most intimate with, making for six possible endings.
More of an RPG than a visual novel.

Minamo is a pure and romantic girl who can be quite clumsy at times, and she's in love with the handsome Satoru, a boy in her class. While working at her part-time job, Minamo spies Ryo and his girlfriend Mio as they eat together, their love for each other clearly visible in their eyes. She wishes she could sit like that with Satoru, but she knows she's too shy to ever come out and confess her feelings to him.
Soon after, Minamo is killed in an accident. Filled with remorse at not seizing her chance for love while she was alive, she visits Ryo and asks for his help. If he'll lend her his own life force, she'll be able to tell her feelings to Satoru. Ryo doesn't know until it's too late that lending Minamo his life energy will turn him into a lifeless spirit! And so the wheels of fate turn, winding the destinies of everyone together: dead Minamo and her reluctant helper Ryo; the pure Mio and her carefree twin sister Mao; the competitive Kokoro, who won't give up Satoru without a fight; the lonely spirit Izumi; and the perplexing Soul Collector.

8. D.N. Angel TV Animation Series ~Kurenai no Tsubasa~ D・N・ANGEL TV Animation Series 〜紅の翼〜 [030925] Takara 1
In the PS2 game, players take control of Daisuke Niwa and juggle the personalities of a teenager in love, a master thief and the search for something called the Crimson Wing. As an added treat for fans, the voice actors and actresses from the television series provide their vocal talents in the PS2 video game.
Puzzle filled console release that's very difficult to get into if you have not seen the anime.
9. Cross†Channel [030926] FlyingShine 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
Gunjo Academy is a facility designed to gather and isolate those students who got a high score on an adaptation exam (scoring high on this exam indicates that the student is less likely to be able to be adapted to the society) mandated by the government.
After a failed summer vacation with other members of the school's broadcasting club, Kurosu Taichi and some of the other club members return to the city, only to find that the world had completely changed.
Only a small portion of reviews is included. With that all the intrigue of game of the year completely vanishes.
10. Doki-Doki Beach ~Munasawagi no Yokan~ どきどきビーチ ～胸騒ぎの予感～ [030926] Aiai
Main character attends private boys school. At summer he gets a part-time job of a guard on the beach. Summer experience awaits! And he already meets cute girl Rina Matsubara there and swears to capture her heart.
Game's mediocre and ero-tilt. Sub-heroines are relatively easy to capture, but main heroine is super difficult to reach, if possible at all. There is no walkthrough around, so we might never know.
11. Flowers フラワーズ [030926] Aaru
Main character attends high school in an old town. One day he goes to a local musician to by his first musical instrument. Just one encounter changes the color of his world completely. This is how his modest love story begins.
Game presents a variety of scenarios to cover as wide range of tastes as possible. There's sitcom, traditional Japanese nostalgia, eroticism, moe. gag, drama, nekomimi elements. It's all presented as a film from different angles. Story has no beginning and no end and is just directed shots of everyday life with various techniques involved. I can't appreciate such scenario neglecting game.
12. Heartful Days ~Hi no Ataru Basho e~ ハ～トフル・デイズ～陽のあたる場所へ～ [030926] Heroine Maker
Main character enters university and finally starts to live alone. Three girls are of special interest to him. As he gets closer with them and solves their problems, something missing in the heart starts to fill in.
Quite an ordinary moege with some comedy and obvious development. Volume is small. Some conversations are funny, but nothing of notice besides that.
13. Meguri, Hitohira. めぐり、ひとひら。 [030926] Caramel Box 1 2
Asou Tomo is an unpopular painter. He often travels to sketch. One day, he visited the Yukari Shrine in the rural town. Then, he came across a girl who called herself a goddess, his younger sister-in-law who died three years ago, his fiancee, a ghost of woman servant and a taciturn girl.

15. Ricotte ~Alpenbul no Utahime~ Ricotte ～アルペンブルの歌姫～ [030926] Rune 1 2

On just a pub's stage the two of them gain acclaim for their performances. And then, Ricotte's confession--. "Have you heard of the 'Songstress'? That is me, that is what they called me."

16. Seikai no Senki 星界の戦旗 [030926] Gainax
Three years after their adventure, Lafiel becomes captain on the brand new assault ship Basroil and Jinto finishes his training to become a supply officer and joins Lafiel's crew. They set out to join a large fleet with the mission to defend the strategically important Aptic Gate from a force 15 times larger than their own. And to make matters worse, their new fleet commander is from the Bebous family, a family notorious for their "Spectacular Insanity".
As for me, Gainax is much better at anime than at games. Space strategy is not my thing, anyway.

This time Naomi is not restricted by morality of a brother and sister relationship, but things don't go as easy as she hopes because being Akane brings her own relationship problems. Chaos ensues...
Kanno Hiroyuki is back, so scenario complexity is guaranteed. But contents is rather heavy, so it's not for everyone. I'd really opt out for something else, but only this game and Umi kara Kuru Mono don't have reviews, and both are rather dark. Please, Kanno Hiroyuki, don't let me down.
19. Tsuki wa Higashi ni Hi wa Nishi ni ~Operation Sanctuary~ 月は東に日は西に ～Operation Sanctuary～ [030926] August
The girl that fell out of the blue.
And the protagonist's life, which began to take a turn little by little into the realm of the extraordinary starting from that very day. 「Nao-kun, if you don't get up soon, you're going to be late.」 The new school term started today. The protagonist's childhood friend, Honami, has kept telling him that he's not a child anymore, and yet continues to come to wake him up. They proceed as they always have to 『Hasumidai Academy』, which stands atop a hill ... but this time around, as second-year students. 「Naoki, I'm going on ahead of you!」 And the protagonist's cousin, Matsuri, zips past the two of them. After having lost both parents in a terrible accident 5 years ago, the protagonist Naoki Kuzumi was taken in by Matsuri's parents. And now, Matsuri herself -- who had been so opposed to Naoki's moving in back then -- has become a freshman at Hasumidai Academy. These ordinary, ordinary days, stretching on forever. ... but then, one day, up on the roof of school
August starts to have its definite style - in this case it's cute characters in unusual setting. And falling from the sky definitely is unusual. There are no complaints about graphic or the first comedy part. But second part is weak, so overall impression suffers a lot. Unfortunately it can not rise above usual moege level yet.
20. Zaishuu -The SiN- 罪囚-The SiN- [030926] Tactics 1 2 3 4 5
Following the death of their parents, Akira made it a solemn duty to ensure his sister could live a normal existence, doing everything within his power to bring happiness into their inconstant lives. As Akira’s bond to Aya inevitably grew closer, others began to jealously whisper how the siblings were forging a relationship that went beyond the accepted conventions of brother and sister; allegations neither showed particular concern towards. Yet this idyllic innocence was not meant to last, and the devotion between Aya and Akira would be sorely tested by an incomprehensible world they never knew existed – a reality that threatens to smother both in malicious darkness.

There aren't masterpieces this month, but I opt to choose Tasogare as game of themonth.But for review I'm picking Lipstick ADV.4 to put an end to my history with these series.
1. Okaeri! ~Yuunagi iro no Koi Monogatari~ おかえりっ! ~夕凪色の恋物語~ [010202] Arco Entertainment 1 2
This is the story of Youhei Oohira, a third year college student living alone in Tokyo. One summer, he returns to Himegima island for his teaching practice. On the ferry to the island he runs into his childhood friend, Nagisa Shinohara, who gets agitated by the fact that he didn't recognize her. While on the island, Youhei meets other characters, mainly girls, where this story of love and friendship begins.
Five heroines - five hour intro plus two hours per heroine route. Game cost is much lower than average, so it becomes obvious that it's quite a simple nostalgia countryside adventure. There is a mystery on the island which gets fully depicted on seeing all the endings.
2. Tasogare 誰彼~たそがれ~ [010209] Leaf 1 2 3 4
You are part of a special program in the Imperial Army of Japan. During WW2 you were a clone that were subject of tests and special mutations.

3. Sen no Tomoshibi no Mukou ni ~Outer Ring Tale~ 千の灯火の向こうに～OuterRingTale～ [010211] Studio Neko Punch
Year in early 2200s, space pioneering era. Main character Ares is a bounty hunter taking various job on requests. His aim is to save 50 million credits and organize an expedition to the Second Galaxy where his father got missing. There may be secondary goals to help heroines in need, but the journey goes on as long as a star named "dream" keeps shining in people's mind.
Character design is unique, but males are painted just horribly. Missions are almost exclusively of carry, rescue and patrol types. Battles are rare, but very difficult in second half. Heroines stories have a heavy feeling, but everyday talks are light and fun.
4. Believe [010216] Forte
Main character is born into a family with special powers. His village gets burnt and he flees together with his sister, but the get separated. Boy is saved from a muddy stream by a demonist. As protagonist grows up, he opens a detective office also hunting for demons. Investigation leads him to girls exercising some magical powers and to a young man connected to his village fire.
The few reviews there are claim that game is very confusing and very little is explained. There are killings and lots of insult.
5. Kyou Kara Idol ~Imitation Doll~ 今日からアイドル ～IMITATION DOLL～ [010216] Chiffon
Main character's elder sister who works as an idol suddenly disappears. Her brother who has the same appearance takes her place under pressure of their mother and idol manager at the same time. Main character welcomes getting to know other idols closely, but where is his sister?
Story is comical and mostly consists of running after other idol girls. Sister shows up, but is not available for capture. Number of H events is quite high, but it's not the main aim of the game.
6. Mirai wa Bokura no Te no naka ni 未来はぼくらの手のなかに [010216] Shape Shifter
In girls school there is a legend that on a full moon night there are 13 stairs in a staircase of an old school building instead of 12, and that the curse of the city is linked with these 13 stairs.
On a full moon night two weeks before cultural festival main character witnesses a girl staying on 13 stairs. Has she got cursed? As school festival draws near, mysterious phenomena occur one by one. Will protagonist be able to lift the curse from the girl with the help of his friends before the festival?
Game is much more of a comedy than a mystery. But love element is thin, it's basically fooling around for the most part of the root, and then sudden confession. The girl that accumulates the most favorability wins. One playthrough is about 3 hours.
7. Ragna ラグナ [010216] Nikukyuu
Scion El is a town that enjoys peace after sealing an evil spirit. But as young prince inherits the kingdom, disarray starts to spread out. Neighboring country enemy forces overrun Scion El. Young king returns to his deprived town and decides to fight against invaders.
Some strategy with units and turn-based army battles. Battles are very poorly done and are too frequent, usually every second day. Girls events feel secondary.

There is an English review
9. Piyona Pikona ぴヨナ＝ピコナ [010222] Rune
Main character is a prince of a kingdom, but he is branded ineligible for succession because of magic affinity. He enters "Magical High School" to prove his worth, but decides to rather get himself a harem from girl students and teachers.
Period is 70 days which is painfully long. After that there is chosen heroine ending. Game type is a comedy. Overall game can be enjoyed as a comedy, but the redundant and repeating gameplay leaves only bad impressions.
10. C' ~Can't Live Without You~ [010223] Rasen
Main character has a lover. Both of them have affairs on a daily basis, but from time to time get together. Will there ever be the day when they get the same surname?
Each scenario is short, but true route opens up upon clearing all ordinary routes. Content mostly consist of slice of life scenes. Difficulty level is high because of the flags.
11. Flutter of Birds ~Toritachi no Habataki~ flutter of birds～鳥達の羽ばたき～ [010223] Silky's 1
Yusaku is a medical school student who has come back to his old hometown to work at the local clinic. During his time there, his earnest nature allows the women of the clinic, both staff and patients, to open up to him emotionally and sexually.
A nakige of above average level, but won't be interesting to those not looking for nakige and country hospital slice-of-life.
12. Four Card [010223] Tail
Main character find all his household items gone after returning home from camping. There is only a letter on the floor saying that his parents suddenly gone to Bahamas selling the house and entrusting protagonist to his uncle's care. He settles at uncle's place under the same roof with four pretty girls.
There are four heroines for capture, but youngest sister does not have H events. Atmosphere is heartwarming and tempo is good, but lack of voicing really hurts in a moege.
13. Genjuu Shuushuudan 幻獣蒐集団 [010223] Pinky Soft
The Highlandy Republic and the Dragon Empire normalized their diplomatic relations through negotiations. In addition, "International highway" was built as a magical defensive means against phantom beasts.

However it has a mysterious provincial guild that takes on requests far more difficult than a normal hunters guild. It is rumored to have a unique secret phantom beast capturing technique. Main character travels to Aneka from Dragon Empire and meets phantom beast collector girl Jade.
Once again a crude 3D dungeon crawler with lots of H encounters.
14. Lipstick ADV.4 Lipstick ADV.4 [010223] Fairytale 1
A small detective office in a non-descript back street shopping center, there is Goro Asami, a private detective, competent in his job, with business going well, but not well enough to live in wealth. There is Otomi Kiyosato, a student of Siratori High and the founder of the "Beauty Private Detective Club, one of the stranger clubs in that school, being an absolute pain in the ass by claiming to be Goro's assistant and inviting herself to his office enough to absolutely drive him up the wall.
During this period of relative bliss, an unexpected incident shatters the peace of Siratori High. Mari Kitagawa, the chief manager for the Creative Literature Club, is found dead with massive doses of tranquilizers and sleeping pills in her body. From the location of the body and the means of her death, the police initially declared this to be a suicide, but by the following day, they abruptly change their stance by issuing a cryptic statement that "Her death was not from suicide." Rumors spread throughout the high school like wildfire, and Otomi and her fellow detective club members began investigating the case. Goro also begins investigating this strange case, after being hired by the victim's father. With Otomi's cooperation, each step of the case gradually comes to light. Yet, before the case could be determined to be murder or suicide, Tomoko Andou is found raped and murdered at the thicket of the high school's rear compound. What is going on? Are the deaths related? Who wrote that mysterious notice, "Who's next?" on the board?
I need to see this resolution with my own eyes.
15. Mitsuru Tsuki 満つる月 [010223] Sirius 1
Story takes place in the second year of the Taisho era (1914), protagonist is a psychic detective. He is asked to investigate the house of a princess who was about to get married but suddenly had a change of personality and became violent like posessed. To investigate this matter he infiltrated the house disguised as a servant...
There are 13 endings, but many of them are just slightly different and even reuse the same CG. There are 10 heroines for capture. There are few puzzle/mystery elements in the game, so it's useless as a detective story - the approach is ero-centered, 3-4 H scene per heroine. Each heroine has some secret, but a huge chunk of the flow is the same each time, so it gets repetitive very soon.
16. Shinohana 紫花 -しのはな- [010223] PL+US
A quiet mountain village. A boy is found fallen in the waterfall and a girl is found fallen from a mountain there. Both have lost memory. Can village songs and mysterious flowers growing there be keys to their memory?
Zapping system adventure. But this shift between protagonists is used mostly to solve puzzles rather than actually affect story. Each scenario is short, but the number of scenarios is big. The largest disappointment that after all those puzzles and scenarios village mystery remains intact.
17. Sokkou Hikaku Jirai Circle 速攻非核地雷サークル [010223] Libido
Strategy to lay landmines and destroy enemy robots. Main character is a mechanic that assists heroines who manage robots equipped with firearms.
Winning means insults of enemies and losing means insults of allies. A win-win situation. So it's rather a nukige with a mini-game attached. I never expected anything else from Libido.
18. Storia ~Ouma no Mori no Himegimi-tachi~ Storia ～逢魔の森の姫君達～ [010223] 1
The season is autumn, near Halloween. Our hero, Alfonse, and his acclaimed assistant and cousin, Marybell, visit Wolf Wood, a town surrounded by a deep forest. On the surface, their reason for visiting the town is to find material for his novel; however the real purpose for their visit is to search for his friend who had disappeared 4 years ago. Alfonse received a single letter stating that his friend had come to Wolf Wood.
They stop at the town's only inn, Ruu Inn. The only people there are a rich man named Joe Cunningham and the owners of the inn, Erin, Aria, and Caress, who are sisters. No one has heard of his friend, Kirks; however there is a legend handed down from ancient times that every 4 years, a young man disappears on Halloween night...
The number of events is too small, so romance part is no good. Such hasty romance does not suit serious story development. Other parts besides love are poorly described.

1. Colorful Box カラフルBOX [031205] Sound Tail
A "comical story" set in a school. You play as main character Narumi Morizuki who's been selected to work on the school festival committee. The game takes place over a one month period and has you interact with six different girls.
Pretty usual school pure love story. Scenario is weak, so overall impression is thin. Heroines have their own charm, but it's difficult not to get bored after couple same looking routes.

7. Anonono. ~Kimi to Sugoshita Ano Hi Ano Toki Ano Mirai~ あののの。～君と過ごしたあの日あの時あの未来～ [031212] Spirit Speak 1
The protagonist suddenly returns to those bygone days of three years ago ...
Leading a life choked with regret, just wishing that he could have one chance to set things right ... The protagonist is an ordinary college student, living out his tedious days in relative peace. But even through his college life, he feels a kind of disquiet that is hard to place -- the root of which comes from the incidents of a certain failed school festival three years ago. After that time, the life and the friends that he had known were scattered to the winds, leaving him with the life he knows now. But if he had the opportunity to do things over again, to set things right, what would he do?
Another beaten school setting. This time both gags and drama are poorly done. Both girl's fall in love and problem solving are forced. Not really a kusoge, just a very low quality level game.

Them brittle, delicate and fleeting existance met with, if I had to say it, a genius person by chance. By his participation, they decided to make noise upon this world.

You play as main character Tatsuya Tsuzumi who has come to the town as an exchange student in order to search for his friend, whose whereabouts are unknown. While in town, you get close to a group of girls and begin to learn the true nature of the case plaguing the town.
A mystery story with fantasy elements, like appearance of the witch, and pseudo-historical elements like world war II, Nazi, Holocaust. There are four heroines, but the flow is almost the same, and questions get answered only in main heroine Stella route. Game's not a masterpiece, but with good atmosphere. The main complaint is lack of text and volume.
11. Tail Tale ている・ている [031212] Clover
Ginta is a veterinary doctor at a large hospital. One day, he's appointed to treat six patients, who much to his surprise aren't animals... but people!

Should he believe in himself, or should he rethink and follow the stable path laid out for him like his little sister wishes him to? Meanwhile, Kazuya meets various people...

You, the young son of a fisherman on a remote island, find a naked girl collapsed on the beach. A doctor nurses her back to health. She seems to have amnesia.
Two men, claiming to be servants of her household, come to take her away. She appears afraid of them, but what can you do about it? Nothing. The next day, she transfers to your school.
Just a moege with poor scenario this time. The development in 2nd part is spontaneous and leaves a bad aftertaste. Zapping system is introduced just for a check, it does not contribute.
19. V.G. Neo [031219] Giga 1
The latest visual novel returns the series to its roots as a fighting tournament and features an entirely new cast.
There are 9 chapters, and 8 heroines participate in a tournament, so almost every chapter has a fight in it. All winners and losers are predetermined, and losers are being insulted in an animated scene by the clerk before the audience. Story is actually nice as we're being told the beginnings and reasons of the V.G. organization.

21. D -> A: Black [031225] Tonkin House
High-school student Tōya Shinjō is what's known as a "Shinigami" -- an envoy of Hell who guides wandering souls, or "Creeps", who linger in the human realm. Each night, he hunts Creeps along with his partner Yuriel Arlencloyn, a white-winged Angel of Heaven. However, one night during their hunt, they happen to rescue a girl named Natsuki who recognizes Tōya as her classmate. Normal humans are not meant to know of such things as Shinigami and Creeps; with Tōya's own past shrouded in mystery to even himself, and Natsuki also interested romantically in Tōya, things quickly become complicated...
D→A:BLACK is a so-called "active novel" -- a visual novel-style adventure game with realtime battle sequences, divided into six chapters. The story unfolds from Tōya's point of view, largely through voiced dialogue sequences with still images. The player must occasionally make choices that will affect how the story plays out and which of the 11 endings are reached; some decisions are timed, and in many cases not answering at all is also a valid option. At certain points in the game, the player will be attacked by Creeps. Controlling Tōya, his partner Yuriel, and his familiar Rin, the player must defeat the attacker and defend their team in a real-time battle. Each of the characters has various actions they can perform; Tōya and Yuriel can attack, defend, and use special moves, while Rin can defend or recover the other two characters. Each character has an affinity; Tōya's attacks are Dark, and work best against Light enemies, while Yuriel's attacks are the opposite, and Rin can switch between alignments. If any character's HP reaches 0, the battle is lost and the game is over.
Scenario feels not long enough and does not really change with different routes. System remains poor with no skip function. Active novel is a new genre and feels fresh.
22. Saya no Uta 沙耶の唄 [031226] Nitroplus 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13
Fuminori Sakisaka has a traffic accident which kills his parents and leaves him heavily injured. When he has a brain surgery to save his life, his perception of the world changes: everything he sees becomes blood and guts, people's looks and voices seem like monsters, and food that normally appeals to him tastes disgusting.
As he contemplates suicide in the hospital, Fuminori meets a beautiful girl among the flesh-covered walls. She introduces herself as Saya, and is apparently looking for her father. Fuminori does not want to be separated from Saya, and asks her to live with him. She agrees.
It's 3rd most popular visual novel of all times at VNDB, so not a single word about it.
23. Shin Mikagura Shoujo Tanteidan 新・御神楽少女探偵団 [031226] Elf
"Shin Mikagura Tanteidan" is an inference trigger system ADV! It is a game to use the power of reasoning to consider and solve a series of incidents.
Almost no novelty in here, but spirit of prequels is maintained fine.

1. Ame ni Utau Tanshikyoku ~A Rainbow After the Rain~ 雨に歌う譚詩曲～A rainbow after the rain～ [020201] Emu 1
Throughout the game you are presented with various flashbacks of a psychiatrist talking with a girl named Ame.
At the start of the story the protagonist lives with Chinatsu due to various happenings in his childhood that caused him to become an orphan, and as such mainly sees her as an older sister. The prologue basically starts out with Chinatsu telling the protagonist that 3 of her patients will come live with them for a few weeks as a part of their rehabilitation.
There is an English review.
2. Boku to, Bokura no Natsu 僕と、僕らの夏 [020201] light 1 2
A secluded place in the rural mountains. Takao returns to the village where he grew up. However, this summer will be the last time, for a dam is being erected and is to submerge the entire valley.
For the first time in 3 years, Takao is to reunite with comrades from his former school. He remembers about a certain treasure they buried a long time ago.
Typical nostalgic pure love story, but thanks to change of psychological portrayal it can be read to the end without getting tired. Development is serious, with few gags. Quite satisfactory game for those who like village slice-of-life.
3. Love Letter [020201] Mu
Takuya works as an assistant professor in a medical school, and with his talent, he shows promise not only in the academy, but also in the medical society.
One day, Takuya receives a letter from an unknown sender. Though he thinks it's suspicious, he still opens it and finds a piece of human skin inside. Then afterwards, the bewildered Takuya continues to receive letters written by "The woman who loves you the most in the world". The contents of the letters gradually continue to escalate, and finally it reaches a point where video recordings of women close to Takuya being brutally murdered are sent to him.
It's another brand of Mink, so ero-tilt is inevitable. But such bizarre atmosphere is not something expected. Guro scenes are mostly disgusting rather than appealing, and for that reason game can't be called a nukige.
4. New ~Maid-san no Gakkou~ new～メイドさんの学校～ [020201] Succubus
"Maid" has become a profession girls look up to. To nurture maids special school is created. Main character needs to find his love in this maids school.
Seven different people wrote the scenario routes, so each route is very different. Some even have only sad endings. There are only 10 days given. Quite original moege.
5. Talk to Talk [020201] Clear
Main character is a clone without emotions. As he leads the school life, he gradually deepens friendship with five girls. Will emotions manage to show up in this interaction?
Normal school love story. Every heroine gets a good ending, although there are questions about how relations can remain good with such poorly adapted protagonist. Role of protagonist varies greatly from route to route - he can be both proactive and passive pushover. So it's quite an unusual moege, but unusual setting delivers many problems as well.
6. Ultimate Hunter アルティメットハンター [020201] Xuse 1
You are Keith, a hunter of the Hunters Guild and who dreams to become the Ultimate Hunter. In truth you are one of the worst, because you're very lazy, to the despair of your partner Elena. One day, you meet a girl, Serika, who asks you to help her take back a rosary that the bandits stole from her. You help her, she thanks you and goes away just like that... Thats how you start your real hunters life...
There are 37 stages that include battles - satisfying winning condition ends battle. Multiple capture is possible and almost all heroines can be flagged with just one playthrough. Second playthrough on a higher difficulty adds new location with several battles prepared. The density of H events is higher that in typical ero rpg. And such scenes are animated.
7. Waitress-san Hai! ウエイトレスさんハイ！ [020201] Evolution 1
Our hero, who is really into uniforms, wants to buy a bike and decides to work part time at a restaurant called "The White Plum." The White Plum is well known among uniform groupies. Most of the customers are here to see the girls, so there are hardly any males working here. Our hero luckily has a friend employed at the restaurant, who helps him get a job. However, the manager says, "You cannot have a relationship with any of the waitresses."
Our hero refuses to give up. He waits for the right time to get close to the girls. As he protects the cute waitresses from other guys, just what will our hero find awaiting him?
A mediocre moege.
8. Himawari no Saku Machi ひまわりの咲くまち [020208] Fairytale
Main character is asked by his grandfather to come to home town run a boarding house with a public path for some time. This boarding house is inhabited only by girls. Protagonist starts his everyday chores in hope to find his childhood friend he fell in love many-many years ago.
Again a cliche setting and again inviting Carnelian to try to sell the result. Comedy in the main part and short heroine routes. Moege with clear character patterns.
9. Kusarihime ~Euthanasia~ 腐り姫 ～euthanasia～ [020208] Liar-soft 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
After the mysterious death of his father and his younger sister Juri, Itsuki, now suffering from amnesia, moves back to his hometown with his stepmother. There he meets an enigmatic young girl dressed in a crimson red kimono named Kurame, and the two soon become friends. The strange thing is, Kurame looks exactly like his younger sister Juri...
On the surface, Itsuki's family and friends all appear to be rooting for his full recovery. However, deep inside, they also seem to be burdened with secrets and guilt about the past. In the span of four days, Itsuki's memories will slowly return as he struggles between his loss and his fear of the truth, until the fourth night, when the whole world becomes blanketed under a red sheet of snow and wrapped up in the silence of death....
There are many English reviews.
10. Memorial. めもりある。 [020208] Bell-Da
Main character serves as director of visual media research department of a certain university. He has recently moved in with his lover. One day he is asked to investigate frequent spirited away cases in same section of Rena. He gathers his fellow students and begins investigation.
From the start we choose two girls to investigate cases with. Night H events depend on progress and interactions during daytime. Daytime comedy does not really fit regular, but short H night scenes. All the elements feel incomplete. Story is absolutely trampled in favor of ero scenes.
11. Chocolate Kiss チョコレートキス [020214] DigiCube 1 2
The player is a high school student that begins the game in 15th of January. He wants a girlfriend that can give him chocolate on Valentine's Day and has one month to complete his mission. There are 9 different girls to date: Marie, Sachi, Saeko, Yayoi, Miko, Anju, Natsuki, Yuka & Kira.
Each day is divided in 3 sections: Morning, Launch break & After School. The player decides what he wants to do in each section of the day. Depending of his decision he will meet one girl or another in that day.
Realistic moege.
12. Re.verse ~Kioku~ Re.verse～記憶～ [020214] KIT
Main character loses his job and follows a newspaper vacation for a vaguely depicted job. The next day he is picked up by woman Kaoru and taken to a mansion where he needs to overcome girl Elena's phobia of men.
Only Elena route is well done. Genre can be described as nakige. Average playthrough per route is 4 hours. Just a single H event per heroine.
13. Daimon ダイモン [020215] LiLiM
The "people of the universe" suddenly attack a peaceful town from space! The powerful armored machines are opposed by a colorful bunch of strange girls.
Genre is gag comedy with parodies. There are five heroines each presenting some kind of trope. First half determines the heroine, the second half is the actual battles, and this second half is pretty much the same for every heroine. There is just one H scene per heroine.
14. Flugel ~Yakusoku no Aozora no Shita e~ フリューゲル～約束の青空の下へ～ [020215] Tactics
Humans divided into two categories - those who could use magic and those who could not. After invention of internal combustion engine the need in magicians waned and two factions began living isolated. One day a certain witch visits technology world...
Story is one way road with three endings for each of three heroines. World is depicted well, but second half of the story is forced.
15. Masquerade ~Kamen Yuugi~ Masquerade～仮面遊戯～ [020215] Spiral
Main character has the power to manipulate personalities in the direction desired by clients. Among other cases one day he gets a request to get rid of multiple personalities in young man's lover. So starts his adventure to the labyrinth of girl's heart.
There are three cases, but protagonist knows exactly what to do right from the start, and that irritates. Game definitely has ero-tilt due to dark personalities of characters. Story is weak.
16. Binary Pot バイナリィ・ポット -Binary Pot- [020222] August
Connection with a famous network game "a world", delicious coffee, and network cafe Binary Pot with a famous girl. As a young chief of the shop, a hero will experience various tales with a regular customer etc. Since girls are the players of a network game, respectively, after closing can also meet them on on-line. And the tale which becomes entangled in both of the worlds, the tale which is not involved. Is a hero how to make it put the body on which world?
Moege comedy. World is of near future and is described vaguely. There are five heroines, but only three scenarios. All scenarios are basically the same.
17. Flutter of Birds 2 Tenshi-tachi no Tsubasa flutter of birdsII 天使たちの翼 [020222] Silky's
The miracle happens again... in another country-
The son of an Englishman and a Japanese woman, our main character is Shin'ya. Having grown up in his father's native land, he wanted to visit the homeland of his mother, who died when he was young. White snow covers the town of Kuramachi. His other hometown, the last trace of his mother. That is where his father and mother met and were married. And the time comes when Shin'ya's wish is granted. His aunt Miyu says she'll look after him at her church.. In his mother's hometown, Shin'ya injures his leg and goes to a clinic. As Shin'ya stays in the small, snow-covered town, waiting for his leg to heal, he encounters various young women. His encounter with the girl in the clinic who likes to read, Narumi, becomes one he'll never forget..
Nakige. Each heroine has just one H event in the end. As an individual game it's not particularly interesting. But for those who played the prequel it delivers a lot through references.
18. Juusou Koujo Metal Princess 重装皇女メタルプリンセス [020222] AniSeed
School is over for you... Time to look for a job... But what to do now? You realize you are good at nothing. Strangely a double opportunity shows up...
A strange group named "The secret society of Evil" seems completely amazed by your shoulder where a hot cup of tea burnt a shape that looks like a dragon... They don't give you a single chance to reject their offer and you are now their leader! The same day, your grandfather, just before dying at the hospital, obtains from you the promise to accept the position of Commander in a secret "Earth defense army"... Soldiers in both groups appear to be lovely girls, pilots of 'mechas', with very different characters and it's clear they are completely opposite groups and fighting each other... Survival implies to play both roles simultaneously in a very subtle way... but for how long can you hide the truth and avoid casualties?
Battle is done once a week. Battle difficulty is quite low as it's mostly about gauge control. Developer is famous for wide use of animation, especially in H events. There are 9 endings overall - 6 individual endings, one bad end and two true endings.
19. Kamine no Mori 神音の森 [020222] Active
"Paranormal Study Group" university club includes two men and three women. They don't have any regulations - just to visit strange places and have fun. This time they investigate a spirit legend in the hot springs resort. The state of the village is strange - it looks like the group witnesses the past of the village. They investigate it to return to the present age, but the village legend starts to reveal itself...
A bakage to the bones. The story is the the same in each route apart of animated H event. Good news is that all male characters including protagonist are voiced. Bad news is that all males voicing is done by the same person. The actual playthrough time is one hour initially and just 30 minutes for consequent ones.
20. Yadokari Typhoon! やどかりタイフーン！ [020222] Orbit-Cactus
Main character Ricardo is a captain of a pirate ship. His crew is full of energy in search of riches. The jewel stuck in the ship deck hints a way to the legendary pirate paradise with tons of gems. All directions are available for new adventures.
The travelling mode is very troublesome since visiting a lot of harbors is required for flagging. Game suffers from the lack of strong vivid characters. There's no violence, and it usually looks more like a comedy tea-party. Four heroines have their endings, plus there is one sub-heroine.
21. Milky Season ミルキィ・シーズン [020228] KID 1
As the newly appointed manager of a female students' dormitory, the player interacts and potentially finds love with 12 beautiful girls.
Light comedy. It's a charage, so plot is non-existent.
22. Piece of Wonder ピースオブワンダー [0202] Studio Crossfire 1 2 3
When the new century arrived, so did they. Until now, the Japanese government has managed to keep the mass media from exposing the fact that the future of humankind hangs in the balance... that people are being reborn as a new, evolved form of life.
Exactly what triggered the birth of this creature known as "Evolution" is unclear... Kazuya Fuwa, a less-than-perfect university student, and his childhood friend Amane Saionji were leading perfectly happy ordinary lives. But beneath the peaceful surface of their town, Evolution was waiting...

Foreword: If you do not know of EVE:Burst Error, you better stop here right now and go watch video playthrough of that gorgeous game. EVE the Lost One is a direct sequel to that game and there will naturally be spoilers on the prequel content. That being settled - I did not pay much attention to the Lost One right away and did not review it properly while observing year 1998. Japanese reviews failed even to give an outline of the plot and were generally not too favorable. Only after playing it myself I found out the perfect answer "why" and that will be covered below.
Title: EVE: The Lost One
Developer: C's Ware
Date: 1998-03-12
VNDB link:https://vndb.org/v2708
Length: 21 hour.
Game type: Command selection ADV.
Difficulty: Easy but command bruteforcing required at times
Synopsis: 3 years after EVE:Burst Error. Prisia is the new queen of Eldia but her rule is challenged by radical nationalists headed by archbishop. Marina retired from investigator duty to become newcomers instructor. Kyoko is the newcomer investigator just after severe course of training and her first task is investigating circumstances of death of a young scientist.. Snake is a mysterious figure who is blackmailed to find "memories" of former Eldia king to bring back to life sleeping EVE/Mayako Mido. Somehow everyone hunts for the "memories" and the truth lies in Eldia.
Structure: Game takes place from June 2nd to June 6th, then from June 9th to June 10th with an epilogue on June 16th.
Character Design rating: 9/10
Protagonist rating: 9/10
Story rating: 10/10
Game quality: 10/10
Overall rating: 10/10
Rating comments: I like it when the game is easy to evaluate. I try to find flaws whenever possible and now just can't find anything. It's not a flaw, but my tiny complaint is that protagonists aren't as fun as Kojiro/Marina pair. Those two were just insanely charismatic. Kyoko compared to Marina is quite a plain investigator young woman and her messy hair really hurt her image. Snake does some very ambiguous action, but overall is not a bad guy - still compared to the endlessly funny Kojiro Snake does not stand a chance. But there is one huge BUT. The japanese reviews are mostly based on the initial Sega Saturn version and game evaluation is average. But Sega Saturn and PC version have one HUGE difference - PC version has Marina route crammed in from June 4th to June 6th. This is a huge 3-hour story that gets all the loose ends together and not only that! Marina investigates together with Kojiro, so we're provided with loads of fun scenes and awesome comments. Marina route flips the table and gets the game from just a good straightforward adventure story category to the perfect sequel and eternal masterpiece one.
Protagonist:Kyoko I already tackled on protagonists in rating comments so will elaborate a bit. Kyoko is ok, she is normal. She is a diligent investigator, but she does not mind quality girl-time going shopping and relaxing idly all day long.with a cup of coffee au lait. Her first case investigating the death of a young scientist gradually reveals that he was connected with the former Eldia mad king "memories" that everyone started searching. She's does not have that much sex appeal, so there are much less funny jokes and commentaries on the way compared to Marina in Eve:Burst Error. To the left of her is Yuji, a quiet student with a part-time work. He only wants a quiet life, but reluctantly helps her couple times and gets involved into a big game facing charges in crimes himself. For a good half of the game he gets to accompany Kyoko, so her side of the story gets a social boost and feels good.
Protagonist:SNAKE This picture is the best view we get of him during the opening and I would not like to spoiler his identity which remains unknown up up to the middle of the game. The first minutes of his route show us how he places a bomb and blows up clothes boutique in a big trade center. How can this monster be protagonist?! But almost right after that we get to know that the instructions to create a hand-made bomb that were sent to him were deliberately diminished the effect with the listed amount. It was supposed to break one chair at maximum. So SNAKE was contacted via pc by some ADONIS who showed him the recording of him setting the bomb in the trade center and blackmailed him into getting "memories" of the Eldia former mad king. It's still very difficult to sympathize with this character since he continues to take some
Characters: This is not a galge and there aren't character routes so there's little point in talking about characters individually. At first sight I thought they were overall less likable than those from Eve:Burst Error - it has very cute Mayako, libririan girl, young Himura, affectionate Yayoi, mysterious prime-minister Lloyd. Here there are less characters, but they are shown in development and gain lots of appeal as story unfolds - bartender student Mina, alcoholic Monica, Rena and her president mother, turned on dolphins Ayano, ever-young Natsumi - they are all a curious bunch. And of course the game shares a good number of common characters like Chief, Himura, Prisia, EVE, crazy ministry supervisor woman. They create a pretty cozy atmosphere.
Story: That may be considered a spoiler, but I'm going to draw a very faint structure of the work since I failed to find it in japanese reviews. Game is roughly divided into two storylines. The first half is about finding "memories" and discovering why everyone needs them (there is more than one reason, actually). The second half is three days after first story is over. It's about the sudden spread of biological infection all over the world and the key points here are also Japan and Eldia. Both stories are closely connected and second story relies heavily on the events of the first half. And in PC version there is also Marina story which takes the last two days of the first "memories" story. Marina and Kojiro get to find the real culprit over the caused crimes and even investigate the studies that laid foundation for the events in second story. Without Marina story it would not be really a coherent narration and I can totally understand Japanese reviews based on Saturn version.
CG: I've checked all the CG again and - surprisingly enough - there's ain't much to show since most of those 150 CG are for story related events or items rather than for characters to show off.
Sound: Everything is voiced except for the acting at the moment protagonist. BGM is very good.
Humor:
Actually, there's not so bad humor in here not even counting Kojiro funny streak. Humor is event-based and this type of humor I find the best. So here are the three occasions that come to mind. Oh and I did not find not a single Bill Clinton joke here! That's an accomplishment in itself! (Those who played EVE:Burst Error will get what I mean).
1) At some point of the story Kyoko has to hide, but she's greatly disappointing by the fact that her friends drew a beard over the wanted posters.
2) There's a small serious meeting discussing the ADD project and how it gets into effect. Yuji who is not strong into genetics adds the bottom drawing and when he's asked what it means, he answers: "anus". It was very unexpected ease of tensions and that's why it was pretty great.
3) Only the dolphin saw the criminal and it's invented how to transform dolphin thought impulses into an image to the fax (PC-98 game My Eyes! nervously smokes in the back). Now the dolphin lies in the bathtub and here's what we get when he ask him to picture the event he recently seen. Just awesome!
Themes and symbols: It's more of a straightforward game that tries to explain everything under the question so that there was no afterthought behind.
- One of the strongest motives of the game is that of the sacrifice. Eldia is full of patriots, that's one thing that does not change.
- There's a very nice developed theme of siblings separated in the early childhood.
Overall comments: It's a surprisingly interesting game series full of vivid characters, animations and it's just a really twisted story with lots of deaths. If command selection gameplay looks troublesome - just watch my video walkthrough of the game. I'm really weak to good game series, so I'm getting to the bottom of it. The next stop is Eve:The Fatal Attraction.
a
Baldr Bullet is the definite winner as VN of the Month, but I'm not up for a gameplay game. But then the question arises - what to review from October 2000? The obvious candidate is Bloomers 2000 , but it also has gameplay elements and its content is quite ambiguous for youtube. So my choice is Kaichuudokei - a lesser known school mystery horror.
1. Fuuma Jinja 封魔神社 [001006] TinkerBell
Youkai sealed for 1000 years is now released in the peaceful city. An ordianary high school student receives guidance from a shine maiden and takes a sword to fight the demon.
A rare TinkerBell game that is not total crap right from the bat. But it does not mean it's not crap. There are three heroines, but the flow is the same, save for some midgame events and endings. With not enough content there's a constant impression of a lousy scenario. And even in this neutral setting TinkerBell managed to include darker themes like tentacles and... worse. Totally unsatisfactory.
2. J.A. Judge August J.A. ジャッジオーガスト [001006] Loze 1
An unbelievably giant enemy is trying to reach Earth. Unaware, most human
beings are leading peaceful lives. Yuzo Hiragi, a space physicist, quickly learns of this threat and begins to develop "the god of war (Illusion)". However, he is nearly killed by the mysterious enemy's attack, and Takeru, his grandson, takes charge of the research... "The god of war (Illusion)" is a machine created by the energy generated from love and trust. However, it is only partially completed, and the pilots are not ready yet. There's only one year till the enemy's attack... He has to complete the machine and find two pilots. Will he complete the project in time? Can he save Earth...?
Story is full of weirdness and chunige craziness like aliens blowing up a complex or assassination by a secret evil society. And eventually comes realization that it's not a serious story, but some gag parody. We pick one of three candidates and watch a lined up story for some five hours. It plays like a normal SF bakage, just don't expect seriousness.
3. Koigokoro 恋ごころ [001006] Ram
The main character dropped in at a village on his way home from training camp. It was his first visit but it seemed he had known the place for a long time.... He decided to stay there for a while and he became a security guard for the village. But it was difficult to guard the village by himself so he started to train security guards. Disciples gathered soon as if it had been planned.... There were five girls. They were unique but trained hard. A little while later, the atmosphere around the village started to get uneasy... but nobody knew the meeting of five girls caused this....
Game has mostly positive reviews, because it's a fun polished fantasy comedy with eight animated scenes. Structure is quite simple - chase either of five girls and get either girl happy ending and bad ending without a girl. Ancient China setting can be not for everyone's taste. Overall a high quality game, but not individual enough, story is commonplace.
4. Koimusubi 恋結び [001006] spiel 1
Hero is a student who lives his life by inertia alone away from her parents.
One night he dreams of living with a girl from his class. He had not special feelings for her till now, but things change from now on... You are given one month to get attention of one girl, otherwise you lose.

5. Kyouto ~Omoi wa Watatsukibashi o Koete~ 京都 ～想いは渡月橋をこえて～ [001006] eLia
In autumn thoughts change into love feeling. This is a love story between high school students who live in Kyoto. Where will autumn Kyoto atmosphere bring them? Sentimental game with quite simple composition that includes heroine introduction - date in the park - return home with H scene - epilogue. The same composition repeats for each heroine. Game includes many Kyoto sightseeing places and can be used as a tour guide. Overall the content is not impressive for an average user. Maybe a sentimental woman would think otherwise.
6. Prism Heart プリズム・ハート [001006] Pajamas Soft 1
There is a tournament for knights at Windland once every three years, a kingdom named after its famous fragrant winds. Seven heroines stand out above everyone else in this years tournament with their fighting spirit. Swords clash, horses race and hearts beat against each other under the famous winds...

Some girl appears before main character and gives him pocket watch. The next day she meets hero once again, but she had no recollection of the yesterday encounter. Strange events start to pile up turning into bizarre incidents that are able to claim one's life. Can he protect the girls? A confusing game utilizing pocket watch to move back and forth in the game time. Getting to the ending is easy, but it's naturally a bad ending, and from that time all the save and load time jumps begin. These time slips aren't really properly explained in the game. And the real ending is shocking, and not it a good way. So with all the concept novelty and mystery, it's a game that's very difficult to like.
8. Kami-sama Onegai!! 神サマお願い！！ [001013] Bell-Da
Main character is an ordinary college student. One day he gets into a traffic incident, and his spirit flies to heavens. There goddess sends him to search for a person thinking of him, as this is the only way to resurrection. However, there are many obstacles on the way of the spirit, like intervention from the demon world. Will he be able to regain his life?
It's a simple gag comedy with several heroines. Scenario is thin. But it's a charage with quite lovely characters, so there's only meaning to play if like one of heroines.
9. Me-ga-mi ~Megami-chan Get Daisenryaku!?~ ME・GA・MI ～女神ちゃんGET大戦略!?～ [001013] CHOCO
Long ago there was a battle between two races. White star race was looking alike humans, but with wings, and they wanted love and peace. The Black star race was with horns and black wings, and they desired fighting and power. The fight was fierce, and both mother stars got destroyed as a result. White race moved to the dark side of the moon and is now called angels. Black race moved to Mars, and they are called demons. Angels can no longer be born, so to continue but chosen from the Earth girls, and of course demons would be in the way, so their conflict continued on Earth. Protagonist is an angel who comes to the Earth in search of marriage partner to become and goddess and continue angelic line. Another lighthearted ero-tilt bakage. Can't really say much about it. Quite a short one, but at least story is not just about the girl, but also about the conflict.
10. Mugen no Kyoukai ~Kiseki no Umi~ 夢現の境界～奇跡の海～ [001013] Eve
Hero is an ordinary student. After getting in a traffic incident he starts to see events of his previous life in dreams. His previous life was warrior guardian of dream world where all the myths originate protecting it from nightmare monsters. One day he gets to know that the seal of the dream world is broken, and nightmare monsters threaten to destroy real world next. He needs to regain his love reincarnated in this world and fight invasion with the power of love.
What a mess of a synopsis. But the game is even worse, it's basically a SIM with racial fetish. Battles are done with janken... System is poor. Something waaaay out of my league.
11. Osananajimi 幼なじみ [001013] Prima
At the end of a short spring break hero finds a childhood photo of him and five girls in the neighborhood. There is also a small key to the time capsule beside the photo. He chooses to use the time capsule to reunite with his memories of those days...
Game is quite short in every of five heroines routes, but it has uniqueness for depicting mental state the environment poetically. A sentimental charage without any drama.
12. Romance 浪漫珠～ろまんす～ [001013] Angel Smile
Meiji era. The main character is an ambitious novelist. His work is criticized at the redaction, and he is recommended to write romance novels popular with public instead. Hero agrees, but he does not have love experience at all. This is a story of romance birth.
It turned more into sensual novel than a romantic novel, but we aren't to judge here. The deployment is forced since the number of characters for romancing is 8. There is much poetry and sentiments in descriptions.
13. Sakura no Niwa 桜の庭 [001013] Tetratech
Shun Kubota died. His past friend Koji Hirose is sure that Shun could not commit a suicide. Koji starts his own investigation and gets deeper and deeper into Shun circumstances... Tetratech immediately means it's a nukige for me already, and this game is more nukige than a detective story. During the course of the story we get to know girl acquaintances of Kubota and listen to their quirky stories. CG have old style feeling.
14. Suki no Katachi スキノカタチ [001013] Sarang
Two years ago protagonist's father died suddenly while working in United States leaving lots of money and house that is too huge to live alone. But one day father's American wife comes to Japan with her daughter to live together in this house! What should he do?
Game only takes 3 days and it's possible to chase either mother-in-law and sister-in-law or just any girls around. Childhood friend is the main heroine. H events are animated and have SM flavor. Happy end happens suddenly after three days, so it's a very hasty development.
15. Ao no Ballade 碧のバラード [001020] Gaia
Akira is an amateur musician aiming to become a professional. On a rainy day he meets a girl while working a part-time job. She turns out out to be a daughter of a famous musical producer. Her father becomes the biggest barrier on the way to love as he promises Akira to disqualify him from a musical contest if he continues to pursue producer's daughter.
A bitter sad story about the clash with reality. Story follows a very depressing development, so leaves mostly negative emotions.
16. Bloomers 2000 ぶるまー2000 [001020] Liar-soft
Divine bloomers were found on the Moon. An evil group BB group "Big bloomer group" seeks a way to make the whole world into a bloomer, and the international MIB "Men in Bloomer" organization monitors the subtle bloomer balance in the world. Their conflict becomes inevitable. Tokiwa Ai is an ordinary girl who becomes chosen as a goddess of bloomers, and from now on she's a bloomers justice warrior! Liar-soft continues its crazy crusade to conquer the world. Unexpectedly easygoing and light bakage, but also with serious parts. Endings vary very much from abrupt ones to aggressive ones and happy ones. The balance of battles is very poor. Overall a bright game appealing to Akihabara and alike geeks.
17. Kikoku no Mori 鬼哭の森 [001020] Platinum Soft
A quiet town where future and past mix together. One day, a theft case happens there which would be soon forgotten if there were not strange incidents happening around it. The female teacher in the midst of the theft incident disappears, classmates start to behave strangely and mysterious woman shows up before Koichi. Gradually, but surely anomalities begin to penetrate the daily life of Koichi.
Game involves concept of time not only for movement, but also for talking... Only one of eight endings has something to do with the theft while other endings only uncover memories. The biggest complaint is that there is not enough explanation and here is thrown from one incident to another with semi-random H events.
18. Kono Mune no Naka Ikite... ~Find Love EX 2~ この胸の中 生きて… ～Find Love EX2～ [001020] Lyceen
In 194X Japan surrenders to the USA and gets occupied leaving only reservations for the Japanese. Forced labor became a commonplace. In addition, USA command center secretly conducts sexual experiments to nurture high psychic ability. One of such experiment subjects is girl Ruriko. Main character is rescued from forced labor camp in coal mine by the resistance. He now fights the occupational forces as well. But at the same time he gets deeply involved with Ruriko...
What a nice setting. But sadly setting does not determine content this time. The story is long, but not so deep. Still recommended to fans of alternative history.
19. Baldr Bullet バルドバレット [001027] 1 2 3
Sometime in the near future, the South American rain forest serves as the backdrop of a war between two factions - those who support the Baldr governing technology and those who don't. To ensure that the skirmishes and conflicts don't expand, the BS-OSA or Baldr System - Observation Structure Army is set up to police the region. Inside the Army is a special unit known as SERR14 (Observation Structure Army South American Experimental Riot Regiment the 14th) which is comprised of elite soldiers and operatives such as Sergey Kirkland and Dullahan Cuningham.
There are English reviews.
20. Nanako2 [001027] Studio Pandora
A certain "family" lives since ancient times with the help of technology that prevents aging. But the price for immortality is full of fear and sorrow. A detective investigation leads to mysterious undersea temple...
There's not much information on the game. The scenario development is short and different in each branch, with lots of H scenes. Quite shocking non-integral work, but mostly pleasant to the eyes.
21. Omoide Album 思い出アルバム [001027] Trabulance
Just before hero's graduation it's decided to demolish the old wooden school building. Everyone in the class is largely indifferent to the teacher's proposal to make an album about the school building. However, main character wants to engrave the life in this wooden school building into something more than a memory. There are several classmates who share his point of view. They start making an album. And it's also the time when girl comes to his life.
The centuries shift gave a big push to the sentimental romance genre. This is one of such games with clever use of sepia tone and special coloring. The story is very simple and all three heroines routes feel quite alike. The shortness and lack of character background and development results in a so-so impression.
22. SuiSui Sweet すいすいSweet [001027] Tactics
Our third-year protagonist Kosuke is surrounded by unique girls.
His bright and cheerful childhood friend Makoto. The stoic council president Kyoka. The cool girl Chiaki. The flirtatious first year Miho. And the crazy about adivination Yuubi. Where will Kosuke's affection lead to...?
Quite a typical school love story with five heroines. Game is dialogues driven, so description is often lacking. The tempo is very bad in the beginning and in the middle, but from the end to the climax it paces up well. Difficulty is not high since there are only two-three options to choose from each time, but it's still possible to get astray from the girl route. There's just one H scene at the end of each girl route, so game was able be painlessly transferred to consoles.

There aren't masterpieces this month, but if it comes to the choice between eroge of the month File: Kokubou Soushou Jouhoukyoku Jouhou Rouei Taisakubu Josei Jinmonin provides the best characters depiction.
1. Onigashirajima Joshi Keimusho 鬼頭島女子刑務所 [941102] Illusion 1
On a secluded island known as Onigashira stands a prison for women. In this prison, inmates are being methodically raped and tortured by wardens. The player is invites to witness the events that take place in the prison from the point of view of five characters: two prisoners, the lovely 23-year-old Chika Kanzawa and the innocent teenager Miki; the sadistic female warden Enko, the police officer Otonashi Youichirou, and a mysterious man known as Seiki, who has his own agenda.
Picture and animated H scenes dominate here, but there is still room for the story since there are multiple interconnected branches and a zapping system of changing viewpoint.
2. Saku Saku Daigoutou Returns サクサク大強盗 リターンズ [941106] Saku Saku Daigoutou Returns 1 2 3
The playable character in this game is a blacksmith called Bargon. As he introduces himself in the beginning of the game, he explains that he enjoys killing people. And that's exactly what the player will have to do while controlling this character. Bargon enters a small village, where he is able to kill anyone, including little children. If the "attack" key is pressed when Bargon is near a young woman, he rapes her instead of killing. Most of the people he kills can't defend themselves and are completely powerless while he is slaughtering them.
There are English reviews.
3. Can Can Bunny Limited 5 1/2 きゃんきゃんバニー リミテッド5 1/2 [941111] Cocktail Soft 1 2
The sixth (or fifth and a half, as the title suggests) installment of the long-running Can Can Bunny series belongs to the same story arc that started in the fourth game and was continued in the fifth. The player character is the same nameless hero that starred in the two predecessors. But in this game, the lovely goddess Swatty is not here to help the hero to find girls. Instead, all the hero gets is an apprentice goddess named Sawady, who is just a brat and who bothers the hero all the time. Looks like this is going to be the toughest quest yet, with Sawady around and with pretty, but tough-to-seduce girls!
No-no-no-no-no-no. No! The whole franchise was holding on Swatty's charm. Actually, it's a minor game, that's why it's sequence number is not 6, but 5.5. Game's done just to present this kindergarten brat Sawady. In real part 6 Swatty and Sawady will be there together to help you. At least unlike most of nampa games this one is memorable thanks to Sawady constant failures and pestering.
4. Tenchi Muyou! - Ryououki 天地無用! 魎皇鬼 [941111] Banpresto 1 2 3 4
You guide Tenchi around the house and get yourself into various scenarios with the female characters. The story is centered around a girl named Hakua from the Galaxy Police who ends up on Earth with Tenchi and the gang for a short time.
Luckily, there are two English reviews for this anime offspring.
5. Zenith ゼニス [941111] Himeya Soft 1
Zenith, a self-proclaimed "Full Animation Adventure Series #1", is a short interactive anime. The plot depicts a group of young women navigating a space ship and encountering horrifying undead monsters who assault them sexually.
This work features full-screen animated sequences and in that challenges Sogna in the genre.
6. Karei Naru Jinsei 2 華麗なる人生2 [941122] Fairytale 1
Karei naru Jinsei 2 is a board/dating simulation game, very similar to its predecessor. As in the first game, players can compete against each other or against computer AI in an adult-themed board game, with the eventual goal of having sex with various female characters.
Second installation of monopoly-type game with theme of everyday life and dating. Since it has no story and systems are relatively based on prequel, a pass.
7. Joshikou Seifuku Monogatari 女子校制服物語 [941125] KSS Inc.
Hero is attending preparatory school for a year. He lives alone and has to earn a living at part time jobs. If he still has time, he can pursue love interests for girls in the neighborhood.
Another dating sim, right? I'd say it's survival sim... You need to plan for the week ahead your studies, recreation and part time jobs. Game is superdifficult with tonns of stats to keep in mind. It's possible to pursue many girls simultaneously ... but where to take time and money? Game manual says that there's a good chance to win weekly lottery if participate regularly... Oh, right, another money sink. This game is weird that it has like 40 girls to pursue, literally, all the girls in the neighborhood they must be. There is literally single CG with each girl. With 40 of them there should be no two opinions on the character depth. The game has pager as means of communication that only accepts number! Like 449244 means Let's eat and I've no idea how exactly to transform phrases in such numbers. Game is ridiculous and ridiculously difficult for the zero motivation it gives to continue.
8. Kamaitachi no Yoru かまいたちの夜 [941125] Chunsoft 1 2
The game revolves around Tōru and his girlfriend Mari, who are suddenly drawn into a horrible murder mystery while on vacation at a skiing lodge. The first part of the games develops as a crime-solving adventure. Additional murders occur if the player is unable to find clues, and the story culminates into a horror movie-esque ending.
The first game to be known as of "sound novel" genre. System is simplified in favor of text narration. There are lots of choices and multiple endings according to the choices, so choices form the game and not forced narration. Such concept gives an alternative to normal visual novels and Chuunsoft makes the genre shine.
9. The Masquerade マスカレード [941125] Janis 1
Kyosuke, an ordinary Japanese teenager, receives one day a strange invitation to a foreign mansion apparently belonging to a mysterious rich woman. Disregarding the bizarre occurrences accompanying his first impression, Kyosuke agrees to venture into each of the four rooms with colored doors inside the mansion. Each door leads him to a different reality, where he is manifested in different incarnations that allow him to experience various kinds of sexual encounters.
Quite a simple ero-centered game.
10. Toraware no Tenshi 囚われの天使 [941125] Interheart
Heroine gets in a car incident and regains consciousness in a hospital. However, it turns out to be a base of some shady organization and her only option is to try to escape this place.
It's an Interheart game, so it's evident that there won't be an exit without struggle mostly presented by yuri love and SM.
11. Viper-GTS Viper-GTS [941125] Sogna 1 2 3
Carrera is a female demon whose job is to create a wish granting contract with a human being in exchange for their soul. Along with her partners/rivals Mercedes and Rati, they carry out this job for the benefit of the demon world. When Carrera is summoned by the nerdy Ogawa, she finds him to be more interesting than her previous cilents and develops a crush. Mercedes tries to get involved with Ogawa also to compete with Carrera. However, the female angels are upset by this disturbance and are willing to purify the demons with their precious "holy water" to save Ogawa's soul.
There are English reviews.
12. Birth Days バース・デイズ [941130] Silky's 1
Birthdays is a dating simulation game. The goal of the game is to successfully date a girl of the player's choice. The player first chooses a birthday and a name for his alter ego. Then he is presented with a calendar for the year. Visiting different locations (movies, shopping mall, etc.) leads to meetings with different girls. After learning their phone numbers, it becomes possible to call them and set a date. During dates, the player often has to choose between different dialogue lines to please the girl. It is also possible to buy present for the ladies. It is entirely possible to set dates with multiple girls, but they might meet each other and become jealous. Girls also don't take it lightly if you don't appear on a date. Finally, at the protagonist's next birthday, the most impressed girl will agree to have sex with him. The sex scenes are explicit, but rather few.
Ok, another generic dating sim. Moving on. Actually, not. It's the first work of Elf's subsidiary Silky's that's not blocked by me as eroge, so maybe I should give it a second look. First of all, character design is on par with Elf, very good. The layout of calendar is new. Random dates are picked rather that going day by day 365 days in a row. Each date is accompanied to something like this day in history and when there aren't famous events, something funny is written. So it's the first attempt to try on Tokimeki Memorial hat. Not entirely bad attempt, but game is minor with much lower production values.
13. File: Kokubou Soushou Jouhoukyoku Jouhou Rouei Taisakubu Josei Jinmonin ＦＩＬＥ 国防総省 情報局 情報漏洩対策部女性尋問員 [941130] May-Be Soft 1
In File, the player takes the role of young man named Pat, who is working for a powerful state security organization in an unspecified English-speaking country. His boss, a mysterious high-ranked agent named Cropp, tells him about a strictly classified project under the codename IBIS, which was intended as a counter-terror measure. Four young women have been apprehended under suspicious circumstances (amnesia following an accident, proximity to weapon research facility, etc.). Pat's task is to interrogate those women and to find out the truth about their activities.
Hero tries to use psychology and orthodox methods of interrogation, but heroines lock up in themselves, then he adopts the... ehm... lest orthodox method applied by his colleague and it shows surprising results and allows the girls to open their hearts to him. The whole interrogation process looks very truthfully and we get to know the girls very well through it and in that way it's a very unusual and well thought game.
Boku ga Sadame Kimi ni wa Tsubasa o. is VN of the Month. I'm reviewing it as well as Xvain ~Devil Out~. There is another masterpiece this month - Happy Margaret!
1. Ar Tonelico II ~Sekai ni Hibiku Shoujo-tachi no Metafalica~ アルトネリコ２ 世界に響く少女たちの創造詩（メタファリカ） [071010] Gust 1 2 3
Taking place in the desolate land of Metafalss, a tiny continent built upon the rim of a tower much like the first game's Ar tonelico, it revolves around two opposed factions: the ruling Grand Bell, which has recently declared war against the Goddess Frelia; and the Sacred Army, who believe that the Goddess enables Metafalss to exist. This ire against the Goddess stems from a failure centuries past at creating Metafalica, a paradise-like land spoken of in legend, which was interrupted by a vicious attack by her defenders. In addition to civil war, Metafalss is ravaged by outbreaks of I.P.D, a Reyvateil-specific disease which causes the victim to execute song magic uncontrollably and do much damage to herself and her surroundings.
Protagonist Croix Bartel, a knight of the Grand Bell, is regularly tasked with stopping the harm done by those afflicted. It is while on a mission to contain one such outbreak that Croix, together with his adopted sister Cocona, is put in quite a different situation. The Holy Maiden Cloche, the Reyvateil who leads the Grand Bell in the war, has come under attack by the Sacred Army. He is soon entrusted with protecting her while they escape. While attempting to hide from the Sacred Army, they encounter Luca, another Reyvateil who has known Croix since childhood. Croix is soon to discover that neither the Grand Bell nor the Sacred Army are what they seem- and nor are Cloche or Luca. Unable to trust anyone except each other (and sometimes not even that), he and his companions struggle along their own path to thwart those who would manipulate them, discover the truth about the Goddess Frelia, and achieve the seven hundred year old dream of Metafalica.
Game is localized and has English reviews.
2. Alice♥Parade ~Futari no Alice to Fushigi no Otome-tachi~ ALICE♥ぱれーど～ふたりのアリスと不思議の乙女たち～ [071012] Unison Shift: Blossom
The Sweet Wonderland... Peaceful forest, beautiful castle, colorful flowers and fine water fountains, as if you were in a picture book. One of the most unique features is there are only girls living, no boys. You are luckily allowed to enter the wonderland, and everyone awaits you. Welcome to the Sweet Wonderland!
Bakage with very serious H tilt. Basically, protagonist molests all the cute stuff he sees in the wonderland. But there are many gags scattered around, so can't really just block it.
3. Oshiete Miko Sensei Ni おしえて巫女先生弐 [071012] Anesen
Main character is dragged into the "Shrine Maiden Promotion Committee" aiming at reconstruction of a devastated shrine. One day two shrine maidens - mother and daughter - come to the committee as advisors and start to live with the protagonist.
Again, a close nukige call. I could not guess mother from the looks of four heroines - everyone is same big breasted style. Story is of moege level.
4. Galaxy Angel II Mugen Kairou no Kagi ギャラクシーエンジェルII 無限回廊の鍵 [071018] Broccoli 1 2 3
It's been six months since the events in Zettai Ryouiki no Tobira. Since then, several worlds with live civilizations besides EDEN and NEUE have been discovered, and the UPW (United Parallel Worlds) has been established.
The Luxiole, with the Rune Angel Troupe, Coco as the acting captain in Tact's absence, and Tapio Ca, the new Chief Operator, has been transfered to the UPW, and to them joins Roselle Mateus, the pilot of the prototype of a mass production Emblem Frame. However, when the Arms Alliance, commanded by the Three Marquises, declares war on Seldor and the allied NEUE worlds and damages the gate, the stranded Luxiole must face them alone.

5. Kannabi かんなび－神奈備－ [071019] Sunlite
One day, when Sayoko is practicing Japanese archery, a girl suddenly comes down in front of her. She looks like an anime heroine. "Where am I? Who are you? Anyway, I like you. Be my follower." Sayoko doesn't know what's going on...?
Ordinary pure love scenario. There's very little enjoyment for the amount of effort involved.
6. Imabikisou 忌火起草 [071023] Chunsoft

7. Nettai Teikiatsu Shoujo 熱帯低気圧少女 [071025] H-do-C 1

An ordinary pure love comedy game with SOL scenes, some seriousness with three main heroines and happiness. There are some paranormal phenomena. There are no fillers, but the number of events is also small, so heroines personalities remain subtly developed. Nothing outstanding.

9. Happy Margaret! はっぴぃ☆マーガレット！ [071026] Favorite
Chiaki and his old friend Inaho were ordinary high school students. They lived an ordinary and peaceful life until they meet with a maid on their way from school. "I'm Sakura. Nice to meet you." She said and somehow they lost consciousness.
When Chiaki woke up, he found himself in a strange place, alone. Soon he learned that this place was an academy of sorts and he was accepted as a student. What will become of him in this strange place and what happened to his childhood friend Inaho?
Cute drawing and nice atmosphere give a positive impression. Gags are good in this game. Ordinary school setting with seven heroines. Common route takes 8 chapters while individual routes only 1-2 chapters. There are four writers, so there is variety. I'd say it's masterpiece material for its genre.
10. Harukazedori ni, Tomarigi o. はるかぜどりに、とまりぎを。 [071026] SkyFish

It's hard to explain it, but it seemed like she was just always nearby, and she just became like air in the way I took her for granted. Right during that time Yukari showed up in my life and she was fresh and new in every sense of the word. It never seemed like I was really lovers with Yukari or anything, she just happened to be a girl of convenience who would come every time I called.

1. Sora no Fudousan 空の浮動産 [010504] Jitensha Sougyou
Near future. Magic has been invented a year ago, and law faculties now study magic. Magic has become an object of numerous regulations. This is a story of a freshman entering such faculty. Game uses the same system as Ano, Subarashii o Mou Ichido that we saw in 1999. That roughly means countless restarts and reloads to find items and hints to bring them back to the saved game. It sounds like pain, and it IS pain.
2. Love Love Teatime らぶらぶティータイム [010511] Actress
Main character gets a part-time job at a coffee shop. There are really cute waitresses working there, but is it possible to go out with a girl met at work?

3. Silence ~Seinaru Yoru no Kane no Naka de...~ Silence～聖なる夜の鐘の中で・・・～ [010511] e-Erekiteru 1
Our hero has been working day and night on preparations for the school festival. He suddenly experiences a blinding headache and is taken to the hospital. He is diagnosed with a brain tumor and is admitted into the reputable Saint Nicola Hospital. There are eerie rumors that ghosts have been sighted. Just what is it with this hospital? Frightened by his worsening condition, our hero is comforted by the various girls he comes across in the hospital. Christmas swings around as death approaches. . .
Choices diverge into various paths as conversations with girls are taken up in this picture novel. As the player, you can decide how our hero's remaining days will be spent to face the approaching end: To leave without regrets. Even with such an overbearing theme, it really is a refreshing piece of work that we know you'll enjoy.
There are nine heroines to capture including secret one that appears after clearing all other good and bad endings. Scenario is thin. One route takes about 1.5 hours. Protagonist is cruel and selfish. No voicing. Game leaves a poor impression.
4. Trouble Witch!! とらぶるウィッチ～ズ！！ [010511] For 1
An inexperienced magician has mistakenly sent our hero and Orihime to the dream world. They want to go back to the real world as soon as possible, but it looks like it will take more than a month just to prepare for the ceremony to send them back. Until then, they have to stay with Pastel, the inexperienced magician, who brought them here in the first place.
This is an orthodox AVG with very cute characters. You will get to meet the following exciting characters: Orihime, Pastel, Milfiyu, Princess Acerola, Chocola, and Maroon. The disagreeable Cacao will also appear, as he tries to capture Orihime.
Content is boring as there is no real aim in the game, just waiting. Good text and characters though.
5. Bunchasai ぶんちゃさい [010518] Jade
Main character somehow becomes a school festival executive committee member. He gets a task to find participants in cute girls competition as school mascots.
Period is 5 days pre-festival and 2 days during festival. One playthrough takes less than 2 hours, but some heroines have two endings. Since it's a charage, evaluation depends on affection towards the girls.
6. Sapphism no Gensou サフィズムの舷窓 [010518] Liar-soft 1 2 3 4 5
Story takes place on a fanciful, all-girl educational institution that floats along the oceans. Despite the complete absence of men, there have been incidents of rape among the passengers and crew. No one knows who it is just yet, but there are three candidates that carry the high probability of being the next target. Suspense and mystery await as the women suspect one another to be the perpetrator, and who will be next victim. You play as an idol--a female--of the student body who joins in the hunt for finding who did it. The rub lies in the fact that the ship will disembark in three weeks, and the culprit will have gotten away with it by then.
Game takes 3 weeks. On weekdays it's exploration and information gathering, on Saturday deduction work, and on Sunday date with main heroine -> repeat. The scenario is thin, so the main attraction is full yuri, atmosphere and characters.
7. Shinseiki Evangelion: Ayanami Ikusei Keikaku 新世紀エヴァンゲリオン 綾波育成計画 [010518] Gainax 1 2 3
In Ayanami Ikusei Keikaku, the player takes on the role of a NERV officer who has just been assigned to Tokyo-3. Upon meeting with Commander Gendo Ikari, he is charged with taking care of the First Child, the mysterious Evangelion pilot Rei Ayanami. It is up to the player to decide Ayanami's weekly schedule, balancing between education, duties at NERV, and leisure. The game spans approximately one year, and includes the events of the entire anime series, as well as the movie The End of Evangelion.
Game is localized and has English reviews
8. Bounty Hunter Sara: Holly Mountain no Teiou バウンティハンターサラ ホーリーマウンテンの帝王 [010524] Capcom 1
In the year 2060, Neo Tokyo overflows with the criminal element and it's a thug life for many up 'n coming miscreants. The police force can't cope and resorts to doling out mercenary work to enterprising freelance contractors who have the resources to kneecap goons who are dignified only by the warrants on their heads.
As Sara Fitzgerald, you play the part of a bounty hunter who takes on high-risk assignments to earn the almighty dollar. The game focuses on your mission to take down the Lord of Holly Mountain, a feared gangster, by going through his ranks and making the right decisions when facing a dicey scenario.
Movie-ish game featuring lots of exotic vehicles and gunfire. Most of deaths come not from wrong decisions, but exactly from gunfire. Not much story value, as developers are more interested in HOW the justice is going to be done, not why etc.
9. Pokopoko Gunsho ~Tana kara Koboreta Story~ ぽこぽこ軍将 ～棚からこぼれたストーリー～ [010524] ainos
Main character found a strange UFO when cleaning his room. Inside were two aliens who came to this planet to spread military shogi game. Intimacy will be reward for winning.

10. 21-Two One- [010525] BasiL 1
Takuya Kirishima is a brilliant young surgeon who can save anyone with a disease. He spends his days working with his childhood friend Seri Sasaki, who is a nurse in the same hospital. One day, a murder is commited in the hospital and people starts suffering a strange disease not seen before. Takuya starts looking for the answer of these strange happenings so he can protect Seri.
7 heroines, plus one additional. Story focuses on the incident, but psychological description of heroines is missing, so they end up existing separately from the incident. In the end it's a perfectly fine charage, but plot feels not integral enough. Atmosphere is great, though. Additional scenario is actually more interesting than the main plot story.
11. Double DOUBLE～ダブル～ [010525] Cherry Soft
Near future. Winged descendants of angels and demons have appeared on the Earth. A series of crimes break out in the capital Chiba City. Main character is a student who attends Chiba Defense Academy ADAMAS. One day he meets an angelic girl at a crime scene...
Basically it's same setting as Kimon Youitan, and more or less same RPG system. Battles are same repeating and boring, but beautiful CG and same enough to keep going. Scenario is not intriguing enough for me to play this kind of story.
12. DT Lords of Genomes DTローズ・オブ・ゲノム [010525] GameStudio
You are a DT master. You can change the substance with the collected data and use it in fights. Governments, secret societies, religious organizations all aim to get that ability and attack it's owner. There are mysteries you need to understand - what's their purpose, why you became DT master, why each data was developed and what's the secret identity of DT. But first of all you need to survive.
Gameboy exclusive with card battles? Pass.
13. Femme Fatale ファム ファタール [010525] Inspire
Taisho era. Main character is a detective in Tokyo. He returns to hometown to dispose of his father's legacy. Local policeman tells him about a case of girl death from illness at a boarding school, but under suspicious conditions. Detective decides to investigate the incident as he needs to stay at the town for some time anyway.
One road with some bad endings on the way (that include most of H scenes). The most irritating factor is when you get to sleep without perfect investigation during the day - then you are looped backwards till you do it perfectly... System is with lots of little irritations. The atmosphere is inspirational. There are some very interesting mature heroines like your ex wife and daughter you temporarily live with, as long as foreign teacher Freya that seems to be a direct reference to Days Innocent game. So game is more interesting as a part of Inspire flow of works rather than an individual work.
14. Night Walker [010525] Arieroof 1
Monsters, called "Breed", threaten the people of Japan. Tatsuhiko Shibafuji, the proprietor and sole employee of the Shibafuji Detective Agency, possesses great powers that can be used against the "Breed." However, this guy only accepts those cases that attract him. Due to his nighttime activities, people within his industry call him the "Night Walker."
Tatsuhiko receives a request from a private sponsor, Yayoi Matsunaga, who is an inspector on the police force. Our hero sets out to inspect a suspiciously related incident at Saint Michael All-Girls Institute. He comes in contact with one of the friends of the victim, Kazumi Asano. Our hero and Riho Yamazaki find a secret underground room beneath the chapel. Here, they find a pendant, which had belonged to Kazumi. The situation is much more serious that he had expected. This AVG is an orthodox command-selection game. A player searches for clues by traveling to different places, meeting different people, and obtaining various items. Throughout this detective story, a player will come upon many obstructions that will have to be cleared in order to solve the case.
Unfortunately the game is a poor remake of the original game. System remains same old-fashioned look/think/speak/investigate. Basically only graphics improved. Game is released to reap the light of anime adaptation... but isn't it better to watch anime version instead then.
15. Susukinohara no Yakusoku ススキノハラの約束 [010525] Kur-Mar-Ter
Main character attends high school and suffers from nightmares every night. The strange thing in the nightmares is that girls there are from the real life around protagonist. Then one day a girl appears before him asking forgiveness for sending him into these dreams, but also asking for his help...
Dream world and real life world are linked. At daytime hero chases girls in order to proceed the story of the dream world. Real world has more comical approach and dream world is rather serious. The connection between the worlds is thin. The theme of the work feels weak and routes fail to impress. No impact at all.
16. Tobi DVine とびでばいん [010525] Abogado Powers 1 2
Our heroine is an energetic girl named Sakura. For the past few days, she's been having problems being honest with herself and her feelings for her friend, Hide. The two of them are adventurers. Hide fought against the evil spirits at "Ruins 374," also known as The Aveil Ruins. At the request of Patty, deputy researcher at the ruins, Sakura and Hide return to Aveil. "This time, we want you two to check out "Ruins 267", nearly 50 miles from Ruins 374." When Sakura and Hide arrive in town, something happens. Pirates capture Mia, Manati, and Sumaki!
The two of them must go to Ruins 267 and save them!! D+Vine [LUV] has returned as a shooting game! The world and the game system itself follow its predecessor. In this shooting game, there are three different kinds of shots. We have also prepared a charge shot called "Rune Shot" and a bomb called "Rune Bomb." Attacks are extremely colorful. Once you save the fair maidens and return to town, heavenly bliss awaits you! With that in mind, destroy the pirates and return for the fun! Good luck!
There is an English review.
17. Univ ~Koi Hajimaru Yo~ univ ～恋・はじまるよっ～ [010525] Cocktail Soft
A story of college student and his life in the campus.
You have to study to make sure you pass the exam and graduate and find a part-time job to collect money to buy a gift for girls.
Pretty basic dating SIM with lots of efforts required and few events are presented in the form of reward. But the most important feature of the work is that it's possible to set required parameters and time will pass with activities selected automatically, so at least SIM part is simplified.
18. Vivre Kokoro kara no Egao Vivre 魂からの笑顔 [010525] Soup
A common male and female relationship. But she suddenly dies. Main character denies everything with grief and becomes despised. His lover continues to exist in this world as a ghost, and she wishes to see her former partner cheerful again. For that she is determined to get him a partner in school trip to Kyoto with the use of body possession.
Game takes 4 days and 3 nights, and one playthrough is as short as 1-2 hours. It's a zapping adventure, and as a ghost it's possible to possess various people. All this confusing synopsis is just a convenient way to bring upon lots of perverse situations with multiple people - don't really see any other meaning besides that in this camouflaged nukige.

Story rating: 5/10
Game quality: 10/10
Overall rating: 7/10
As you see from the scores, I'm angry about this game. I'm too irritated by inconsistent story, trap protagonist and his bully behavior in H scenes. Impression may change later as it did with Clephas two reivews, but it's where I stand by now. Read other reviews (1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9) if you want a more positive approach.
With that handled, need to remind what this game is about. It's a metaphor on our reality, a cruel world that does not tolerate delinquents. Moreover, these delinquents' situation is aggravated by constant fear of breaking conditions of their curse, different in each case. So no one can trust anyone. Still, people are social beings, and they seek for soul mates. Normal people are too different, so cursed characters look for alike persons, bounded by curse. Such people can assess risks adequately and maybe even provide some support. As a result, we get a bunch of bitter sarcastic delinquents who don't mind teasing each other. The good thing is that all these people become mature very early. Even though communication attempts are rough, it's always good to see adult people talk. For the same reason there's no romance in this game. Everyone hides in his shell, there can't be even thought about getting defenseless in front of another person. The same goes about trust. It's a given that no one can be trusted. And the whole point of every route in this game is to pierce through this trust barrier. This process can differ substantially and be even rough like in Atori case, but it's what this game is about. And that's why each route is not about a certain heroine. It's about some trip or lasting event that bonds people together. Trust is not something that can appear overnight, that's why each route is really long, often with a lot of repeating common life events.
The bulk of the game is just these everyday life events. Pacing is really bad, and no end to these seemingly boring events is seen. Nothing really happens on a grand scale. So reading this game is a huge pain for plotge enthusiasts. First three routes are just fillers from usual reader point of view. But this is not a normal visual novel, it can't be dragged to conventional genres. That's why I called it character mystery story. Every character is a mystery with his gift, curse and anxieties. It's not just usual hair color and personality differences. Every character is a whole world of mystery here. And if you don't want to solve this mystery, then you don't follow writer's concept and won't be able to enjoy the game. Each heroine is equally important, Rui is same important as Akaneko in True route with all the final revelations, that's why (and also for the pun) Rui name is in the title despite her route being as plain as possible. Another important trait of these game is that everyday life events only seem pointless, repeating and random. In fact, each single event has a meaning, and as such is a very important brick in building this ever fleeting trust.
So, this game has a pretty shallow story. Characters might be interesting and all, but what can draw reader's attention and make these heroines alive? What makes us want to solve these characters mystery with concept being this dull? Basically, it's text. Text is super solid and mature, but it's also a great comedy based on puns and broad cultural references rather than usual perversion. Remember Saihate no Ima and Cross Channel? Text is this good. For me nothing can beat Youko talk, but Akaneko is a worthy rival as crazy generator of puns, teases and references. But why those games are 10/10 for me and Rui wa Tomo o Yobu barely makes it to the masterpiece level? For me it's trap protagonist. He makes every scene physically painful for me. His female voicing and proactive behavior during H scenes make things only worse.
Rui wa Tomo o Yobu is the ultimate trap game. Never again trap protagonist will be portrayed with equal appeal and complexity in a game with this high text level. Tomo lacks usual stupid trap anxieties and behaves absolutely normally as it's his natural state, he is raised like that for all this life. It's the best game for breaking trap prejudices. But I can't put up with it now. Maybe, later.
There are over 20 games in September with masterpieces to cover everyone's tastes. Mirai Nostalgia is for nakige, Dunamis 15 for mystery, Kajiri Kamui Kagura for action, plus will decide on Code 18 status later as I want to play it absolutely blindly. Action game prevails for me, as usual. Zen agrees with me on the main favorites, plus features your diary. Micchi lists all kinds of moege with titles each more sugary than the other.
1. Corpse Party: Book of Shadows コープスパーティー ブックオブシャドウズ [110901] MAGES. GAME 1 2 3
Before, during, and after the events of Corpse Party—in the canon universe, as well as in several alternate timelines—the students of Kisaragi Academy, Byakudan Senior High, Paulownia High, and Musashigawa Middle School had far more experiences within the cursed halls of Heavenly Host Elementary than the stories typically recount. How would events have unfolded, for example, in a universe where each student went into the Sachiko Ever After ritual with an unconscious awareness of everything that was going to happen to them? What might’ve occurred to Mayu if she’d never interacted with the ghostly children in the school infirmary? What might’ve occurred to Yuka if she’d been caught during the harrowing chase in the second wing? What might’ve occurred to Seiko if Naomi had gotten to the bathroom just a bit earlier?
On the other side of the coin, how did Naho actually get into Heavenly Host, and whom did she come with? What was Tohko’s relationship with Kizami, and how did that result in a lost tooth? And what connection did Ms. Yui have to the cursed elementary school prior to ever taking part in the Sachiko Ever After ritual?
Most crucially, what happened to the survivors of the previous incident after their escape? How did the loss of their friends affect them? And what does all of this have to do with the mysterious tome known as the “Book of Shadows”…?

Takatsuki Tougo is leading a boring life at Ceres Academy, located on an isolated island called Dunamis Base. One day, while rushing to class after having overslept, Tōgo stumbles upon a mysterious girl in the school hallway. This brief encounter then changes Tougo's life forever.
Time in the game will loop, so the player will end up experiencing the same story repeatedly. The player will need to follow the proper route in order to escape from this loop.
There is one half-assed English review, but a game with such high votes definitely needs more attention. Suspense is not exactly my kind of genre, but I'll try to review it emulated at main pc after Second Novel, so at some rather distant point of time.

6. Shion no Ketsuzoku ~Kono Futashika na Sekai to Tenshi-tachi no Rondo~ シオンの血族 ～この不確かな世界と天使達の輪舞曲～ [110922] catwalk
The female magicians of the Shionji family are designated as protectors of the royalty. They are actually vampires called Apneas. The only male in the family, Mikoto, lives deep in the forest with his twin older sister Ariha, his relative Shizuka and a sexroid Nowem. The girls attend the boarding school Shikyou Gakuen, however their normal lives are soon shattered by the appearance of a Catholic sister, Sofia, who is intent on exterminating all vampires, including the Shionji.
Don't let an innocent enough setting mislead you - it's a nukige from a nukige maker company. Scenario ends very soon since there are many violation and harem scenes needed to insert.

Update: Since English review is found, I'm relieving myself of duty to review it. Three console games in a row is too much fore me.
10. Dead End: Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dead End デッドエンド Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dead End [110929] TEXT.
Capitalizing on the vampire craze the world seems to be in, players of Dead End will control some high school kids and fight society’s new favorite villain. Its gameplay is styled like a choose-your-own-adventure book. Remember those? Each action in the game (such as “Go left” or “Open the door”) is represented by a numbered “paragraph” in the story, and players spend the game jumping from paragraph to paragraph. This means that there are multiple story branches, and players could play the game several times without even seeing all of the story. Jumping from paragraph to paragraph will also be used to solve puzzles within the game.
Fights within the game involve dice rolls, with certain numbers corresponding to different attacks and skills for both the player and enemy.

15. Kotowari ~Kimi no Kokoro no Koboreta Kakera~ 理－コトワリ－ ～キミの心の零れた欠片～ [110930] C: drive. 1
When Mishiro was small, half of his soul was eaten by a toothed deity. Since then he has had to deal with spirits called kotowari that reside in the darkness of the souls of people who are related to him, no matter how distant. Kotowari are soul fragments created from a person’s suffering and they can normally only be seen, heard and touched by that individual. Even if the kotowari is destroyed, it will keep respawning unless the cause of the suffering is resolved. Shortly after transferring to a school in a history-laden sightseeing town, Mishiro encounters a kotowari and decides to search for its owner. However, there isn’t just one kotowari as many other girls harbour their own suffering.
There is a small English review, but it needs an additional commentary taking in account high vndb votes. C : drive tries different genres, but all their games inevitably tilt to nukige. But on the other hand these are nukige with scenario, so even very straightforward Hypnosis theme becomes much more complex than normal Hypnosis nukige. This time game tries to be a dark horror suspense mystery, but scenario is opportunistic, lacks detail, suffers from multiple writers inconsistencies and carries no true route. As soon as five heroines with easy flags are captured, it's over. Kotowari excels as an atmospheric nukige with a flavor, but as plotge it has ways to go.

Two important childhood memories: one that mustn’t be forgotten, and one he’ll never forget. These are the memories of Sousuke’s childhood encounters with two important women in his life: the now-forgotten vampire princess Silvia, and his always-close-by childhood friend Yukari.
Now, many years later, Silvia returns as promised to fulfill her blood pact with Sousuke, but things didn’t go as planned. Not only does Sousuke not remember her, but his blood has been “tainted” by another vampire without him knowing it. To a vampire, the relationship with their contracted partner is a lot like a “first love”, and it’s totally forbidden and taboo for another vampire to “steal” someone under another vampire’s pact. Unfortunately, the vampire responsible — someone very close to Sousuke — doesn’t appear to be aware of what she did.
Before Sylvia can forcibly undo the improper blood pact to restore her own, Sousuke’s father proposes a special arrangement: since the blood pact depends on the mutual feelings of the contractor and contracted, within the next lunar month whoever Sousuke comes to love most will keep their contract. Not happy with the way things are going, Sousuke’s (adopted) younger sister Mai declares suddenly that she’s entering the “game” as well in order to protect her beloved older brother from these vampires. Sousuke’s peaceful days are over…
