Freestyle80 Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Kara no Shoujo would be one but be warned its story is really dark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clephas Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 If you don't mind untranslated... the Secret Game series, Futagoza no Paradox, Owaru Sekai to Birthday... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sneakpool Posted March 20, 2014 Author Share Posted March 20, 2014 Secret Game series is exactly what i need but sadly can't read So Clephas if you have any translated in mind please say Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clephas Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Sorry... people named most of the translated ones. Thrillers aren't exactly rare (though they aren't so common as to be easily found), and they are proportionately represented amongst translated vns (oddly, moege are disproportionately untranslated, probably because it is hard to get up the motivation to go through with a full translation of a regular moege). Cross Channel comes to mind, though it isn't exactly a thriller (has some horror-ish moments, protag is completely insane, etc). I'm afraid you'll find yourself short of vns to play in English for the genre, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bolverk Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Higanbana I think? I just suppose it fits considering 07th Expansion other works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
castor212 Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Maybe you could check this: http://vndb.org/g253?fil=lang-en or http://vndb.org/g500?fil=lang-en filtered to english language. I love vndb tag system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Okami Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Infinity series and Stenis:Gate. Also this is an Anime not a VN but if you like psychological themes you should definitely watch Shinsekai Yori. Funyarinpa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albedo Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Remember 11 has elements from this genre (a research facility where someone is trying to kill you? yeah, that works) Funyarinpa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Undying Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 If you played 999 you NEED to play Virtue Last Reward. Funyarinpa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vokoca Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 If you played 999 you NEED to play Virtue Last Reward. Yep, definitely. Just don't do it in reverse order, like I did. Funyarinpa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funyarinpa Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 Remember 11 has elements from this genre (a research facility where someone is trying to kill you? yeah, that works) Just for the record, Remember 11 is a part of the Infinity series.

Freestyle80 Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Infinity series is not really psychological or thriller more of a mystery and sci-fi though i do recommend u read them all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krill Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 cross channel definitely psychological and thriller Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DimDito Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 Does Steins;Gate count as a psychological thriller? It's on everyone's top 10 list. I suppose the only other thing you don't have there worth mentioning would be Kara no Shoujo. I found just as weightful as Saya no Uta.

Kendjin Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 Divi dead was one of the first VNs I played. I'm not sure how well it has stood the test of time though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyanko Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 I'd also say Higanbana, not sure if it's really a thriller, but it sure is psychological and both games (1st and 2nd night) are translated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose the only other thing you don't have there worth mentioning would be Kara no Shoujo. I found just as weightful as Saya no Uta. I think Steins;Gate is a nice thriller, not sure if its that psychological though. It's still one of my favorites and certainly worth reading if you don't mind some hard scfi. I agree that both Kara no Shoujo and Saya were weightful, but Kara no Shoujo was a lot more realistic. On the other side I think Saya no Uta is much darker because of the horror elements it has. It depends what you like more but I think Kara no Shoujo should certainly be added to the list. and steins;gate it'd be better to wait till they release the new one,forgot when though The limited edition will be released this monday (March 31) , regular edition is April 30.

sneakpool Posted March 30, 2014 Author Share Posted March 30, 2014 Steins;Gate is nice but after watching anime and reading manga, I don't know if the game will thrill me anymore. Apart from that thanks for recommendations but i have read almost every vn suggested apart from: Higanbana (will read after KnS) Kara no Shoujo (reading now) Steins;Gate (if nothing else would be left) Thank again and more suggestions are always welcome.

I watched the anime before reading the VN too, but I still had a lot of fun reading it, even though the anime is pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freestyle80 Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 VN probably goes into more detail as usual,always worth reading it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
