Sweet, I actually backed the kickstarter for that one, so glad to hear to it came out well. It's probably what I'm going to read when I finish Hatsumira.

It's probably not quite what you're looking for, but iirc Cooking Companions draws inspiration from Slavic Mythology. https://vndb.org/v28079

If you haven't read the Devil on G String yet, then I've got a pretty good suggestion for you. https://vndb.org/v211

If I worded any of that poorly or you have other questions, let me know. I read the novel a second time a few months back, so it's still pretty fresh in my mind.

I can't think of any VN take I've ever heard that I agree with more than Higurashi having pacing issues. I started Higurashi back in February of 2018 and have been on and off slowly picking away at it since. Almost four years later and currently I'm just a couple hours into Tatarigoroshi because I just can't subject myself to that much nothing for long periods of time. I really liked the last couple hours of Onikakushi and I wish there was more of that.

According to vndb the Sayooshi patch was taken down; is there somewhere I'd still be able to find it? Kikokugai looks interesting, thank you for bringing it to my attention. I've actually already played Corpse Party a few times, it's one of the games that got me into VNs originally; perhaps I should play another of the sequels. Muramasa is one I've been waiting on for a long time. I'm surprised but also glad to see if finally got translated. If we're actually seeing progress on long Nitroplus VNs, any chance the Sumaga translation is going to be completed one day?

Thank you all for the suggestions. I'll have to look into Swan Song, I've seen it come up when I've been scrolling through vndb, but I never gave it much thought before. Tokyo Babel definitely interests me as well, I actually bought it on steam a few years back but never got around to it. End Sleep and Sayonara wo Oshiete both look great and I'm sad that I don't know Japanese; it feels like whenever I ask for suggestions the most intriguing ones are untranslated. For now, I have some friends who insisted I stop putting off Steins;Gate, so following up on these will have to wait.

Title pretty much says it all. Read Sakura no Mori Dreamers recently and, after how amazing it's prologue was, now I can't bring myself to sit through hours of mid af slice of life and/or romance at the start of whatever novels I try to read. Translated suggestions preferred.

As for my review of it, the first time I read it I actually felt largely neutral towards it due to the fact that I started right after finishing Grisaia and was kinda upset that it was absolutely nothing like Grisaia (I was trying to fill the void in my heart that Labyrinth/Eden/Phantom Trigger never could). I recently reread it on account of a friend reading it for the first time and now that I no longer had such an unreasonable expectation of it I must say that I am quite fond of it and would even just barely place it in my top 10 favorite VNs. For other VNs by Frontwing that've been t

Thank you all for responding. It's a shame that it's unavailable for now; hopefully something happens with it in the future.

I've been very out of the loop regarding VNs, so apologies if w/e is going on is common knowledge and I'm just bad at searching. Anyways, I wanted to buy Newton and the Apple Tree for one of my friends for the holidays, but none of the official shops carry it any more. I joined Sol Press' discord server but even asking what's going on with it only got me as far as Sol Press losing the license. Is there any news on what's going on with the license beyond that? Has another company picked it up?

To the best of my knowledge, Asako first appears in Grisaia no Meikyuu, but if someone knows otherwise please correct me.

Wow, I can't believe that someone else has played World End Syndrome. I'd swear that no one has heard of it.
