Gao Gao! 1st ~Radical Sequence~ GAOGAO!1st ~ラジカルシークエンス~ [Four-Nine]

Foreword: I did not expect much of the first game in the series, but was pleasantly surprised. It's a really long scenario-centered game that stands on the same level as Gao Gao the 3rd, just in less intriguing environment. It's well worth a review!

Fermion ~Mirai kara no Houmonsha~ フェルミオン ~未来からの訪問者~ [Silky's]

Foreword: I keep exploring the vast vaults of Silky's games. This time it's even more suspicious work - a full scale yuri game. But it has many SF elements and even has genetically modified mutants - knowing Silky's they would not settle with an ordinary yuri work.

Femme Fatale [Inspire]

Foreword: I only got sort of interested in Femme Fatale as prequel of Edelweiss and as a part of chaotic production of Inspire company. Detective mystery game should be a safe bet for an interesting story, right?

Fearless] [Active]

Foreword: Voiced protagonist has become deciding factor to choose Fearless] over Shitai o Arau. Fearless] also is a mystery to me structure-wise and story-wise.

Faust ファウスト [Tail]

Foreword: I did not have much hope for this game until I found a Japanese review calling this game a hidden gem and praising its atmosphere.  Title: Faust Developer: Tail Date: 2001-12-14 VNDB link:https://vndb.org/v9803 Youtube walkthrough:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GAn6MX7Tj6U Synopsis: In a peaceful city, a series of strange "vampire" murders happened.

Exodus Guilty エクソダスギルティー [Abel]

Foreword: This is Kanno-san's scenario and I could not miss on it. There are a lot of good English reviews on the game so I'll try to just add some additional thoughts I have on top of those reviews. Title: Exodus Guilty Developer: Abel Date: 1998-07-31 VNDB link:https://vndb.org/v172  Synopsis:The year 2000.

ExE エグゼ [Yuzusoft]

Foreword: I'm not sure scenario author of Braban can provide a worthy chunige, but I'm ready to be surprised. Synopsis:  There was a big fire at a hospital which inflicted serious damage. Touya's mother, Suzuno, fell victim to its flames. After ten years he still can't overcome his sadness. But he somehow enjoys his life with Makina, his younger sister, and Saya. One day he sees a girl who looks quite like Suzuno. He can't forget her, and goes after her. He finally talks to

Evolimit エヴォリミット [Propeller]

Foreword: It's always nice to read a work with a fresh concept Synopsis: You start out in a flashback, the last remaining two humans fighting against him. Of course, after that you wake up in a place unknown to you along with a bishoujo and you lost all your memories. The girl with you explains that this is no longer a world you once lived in, a world where trains, bus and bicycles no longer exists. People travel by flight, literally. Not only that, but people transforming into

EVE: The Lost One [C's Ware]

Foreword: If you do not know of EVE:Burst Error, you better stop here right now and go watch video playthrough of that gorgeous game. EVE the Lost One is a direct sequel to that game and there will naturally be spoilers on the prequel content. That being settled - I did not pay much attention to the Lost One right away and did not review it properly while observing year 1998. Japanese reviews failed even to give an outline of the plot and were generally not too favorable. Only after playing it m

EVE: TFA [C's Ware]

Foreword: Again, C's Ware game and EVE on top of that. I actually played it before EVE Zero as a substitute for EVE:Adam Doublefactor, but decided to to keep it for a later time since it has some imminent spoilers for EVE Zero. Title: Eve: The Fatal Attraction Developer: C's Ware Date: 1999-12-02 VNDB link:https://vndb.org/v6108 Length: 22 hours. Game type: Point-and-Click ADV.

EVE Zero [C's Ware]

Foreword: Phew, this game took a while to beat! Command selection was not comfortable after point-and-click EVE TFA that I finished before Zero. Eve Zero is best be played as the third game in the series, after EVE Burst Error and EVE Lost One.

Es no Houteishiki / Esの方程式 [Abodagio Powers]

Foreword: I did not want to review it. But then I watched the hentai OVA of its preuel - Mystery of the Necronomicon (黒の断章 Kuro no Danshō) and it's a total blast. I highly recommend to watch it to everyone. A very memorable and bloody occult detective story. There was no anime version of the sequel, so I rushed in.

Dungeons & Daimeiwaku 大迷宮&大迷惑 -GREAT EDGES IN THE ABYSS- [Liar-soft]

Foreword: I'm a fan of DnD , Wizardry 8 and Japanese Wizardry series, so I could not just pass by Dungeons & Daimeiwaku. As for Mareni writing, it's a stamp of minimally acceptable quality although without a normal story it can easily go astray. Synopsis: In the world of sword of magic, expert miners discovered an underground labyrinth in a remote area of the continent. “The Abyss” is very huge inside, full of monsters and traps. However, it was rumoured that ancient treasure

Dragonia ドラゴニア [Hirameki International]

Draculius ドラクリウス [Meromero Cute]

Foreword: Vampire stories fail to impress way too often. Tsukihime, Hellsing and Masquerade are the only positive examples I can remember. I would not mind trust reinstalled with some new title. Synopsis:  Draculius begins when Ogishima Jun, the male protagonist, suddenly finds himself face to face with a childlike maid who introduces herself as Elshlant D. Annoyance. The encounter quickly brings two monumental facts to life: the first is unequivocal proof that vampires exi

It's been my longtime wish to show that nukige may have a decent story, but is this exactly that case?

DiaboLiQuE / -デアボリカ- [Alice Soft]

Demon City / デーモンシティ (Cocktail Soft)

Fortunately, my belief in this old company prevailed. Title: Demon City Original Title: デーモンシティ Developer: Cocktail Soft Release Date: 1993-12-21 Summary: Vagnard kingdom practices "True religion" to live without restricting own desires, so its capital got known as "Demon City".
