The broadness makes it difficult to know which games to play, especially if the player is new to the genre. Among the many visual novels that have been released, there are some that stand out among the rest. These gems show the best aspects of the genre and what makes it so popular to this day.
For this game, the DS's dual screens are used equally with the touch screen being a way for the player to interact with the environment, solve puzzles and move around while the other screen shows character portraits and biographies. In addition, some puzzles require the player to use the microphone or even close the DS lid, making Hotel Dusk: Room one of the few games to take advantage of the DS's many features. With the prevalence of romance visual novels, some recent ones have tried to play with the typical romantic sim structure to make something new and unexpected.
One prevalent example is Hatoful Boyfriend, which is a flash visual novel game that featured a female protagonist romancing multiple male characters, who also happen to be pigeons. The main heroine is a human who attends a school for pigeons. While absurd, the first half of the game is mostly a romantic comedy where each of the pigeons is on a different route.
As the player continues to complete the routes, they discover that there is something wrong going on behind the scenes. With the sequel, Hatoful Boyfriend: Holiday Star , and other extra content, Hatoful Boyfriend can easily get players invested in a world of birds. While the famous video game director Hideo Kojima is mostly known for the Metal Gear franchise and the recent video game Death Stranding , he also created a visual novel game during his early career.
Released in for the PC, Policenauts is a mystery science fiction story about a detective and former astronaut named Jonathan Ingram as he investigates a space colony. Policenauts takes the point-and-click gameplay and extensive story of Kojima's other visual novel game Snatcher and takes it to the next level.
While the gameplay of Policenauts is much more linear compared to Snatcher, the gameplay feels smoother and the game uses higher-quality graphics. The plot of Policenauts is also longer and has a more detailed in-game universe.
Umineko When They Cry is a series of mystery visual novels that are told entirely through text without any dialogue choices or branching paths. Besides some portions of the final entry, the reader can only advance the text and access hints about the plot.
