And there's also the music which was not bad but also not that great, listening to the same 3 or 4 tracks every few scenes and so did get a bit repetitive.

Think next one will be Narcissu, if and when I will begin that.
The music was my biggest gripe with True Remembrance, and I think after a while I decided to turn it off and just listen to music while going through it (god knows what I was listening to, but I suspect it was wholly inappropriate!) The story is a good one though, although my head was spinning for a wee bit towards the end :P

Narcissu's good, also try Juniper's Knot - it's short, but a good story with great artwork, alright music and hawt demon thing.
Is it only for iphone/ipad's ? Cuz I couldnt find another dl link on their website.

Not as far as I'm aware, I played it on my laptop. That said, it does seem to have moved... either that or I got it from somewhere else :P

Ugh can anyone help? I'm trying to play Narcissu but the game keeps freezing on me when for example changing scenes. Is there any fix for this?

I know this isint KS related but well someone might know how to fix it since it was reccommended here :(

Just finished playing a VN called Stillwater Creek. It's decent, and there are far worse ways to kill a few hours, but mainly I'm posting because the game makes a reference to KS in one of the routes. One of the characters is offered a position at Yamaku High, and the good ending (and maybe the bad ending, too) of that route is almost certainly a callback to one of KS's own good endings, but with a lot less drama :) .

Anyway, thought folks might be interested.

Was looking through VNDB for a new VN to play after Fate/ Hollow Ataraxia, and I ran into this gem of a tag list, I think i may avoid this one.

Is this all the same heroine? Or (seemingly) tens of different ones? xD

Heh, I gave in and downloaded it, I quite like the "Grand Strategy" elements of it, but like you said, so far, some of it is, a little odd.

I was just dry humoring.

Actually, this reminds me of Monster Girl Quest in a way. Really good game, surprisingly thought out plot... very strange themes.

The tags are what led me to play that some months ago.

Just to see how fucked up it got. :lol:
I love the interpretation of Pac-Man where he's a just a lowly worker retrieving golf balls left all over the course by the rich masters and the ghosts are all previous workers who got conked on the head and killed by incoming golf balls in the line of duty.

I just noticed this... why the flying fracktail is 'comedy rape' a tag? Like, do wacky antics occur during it, or...?
