    AMEN 11 11 goes beyond a simple hidden object game through its use of skin-crawling drawings, haunting melodies, and unspoken story. Highly recommended to fans of the genre who can stomach its art.

    Kinsfolk follows a grieving man who has lost his wife, now on a journey with his infant to find a purpose. Its minor flaws are outweighed by its remarkable visuals and emotional subject matter.

  • Sweetcore Brews Review by Abubis

    A fun and cheesy romance-comedy with a male and female love interest. Lots of short stories, sweet and spicy, however lacks romantic build-up.

  • Devil and Pitfall Review by Abubis

    A fun yet short NSFW Otome. Fall into a pit with an irresistible Devil, experience things beyond your imagination as you try to find your way out of the pit.

  • Glass Heart: Retold Review by JeminiJess

    A reworked and retold story to the original Glass Heart game. New art, game engine, and rewritten parts of the story and its characters as it all comes together in a more definitive version of the game.

    A somewhat linear mystery VN intended for a female audience, set in a unique world with wonderful characters and art. History comes back for the Phoenix Kingdom and characters within.

    Loser Named Hana is a visual novel that attempts to have you bond with a timid girl named Hana, only to fall on its face with its poor characterization and missteps at story telling.
