Visual Novels like Grisaia?

[EliteShadowMan]

I was wondering if any nice people here could point me to a VN like Grisaia with the typical choosing a girls route and all that good stuff. My only requirement is I want it to be 18+ just because. Thanks!

 

I've read Rewrite, and a little bit of Little Busters! and Clannad. I'm currently going through G-Senjou

Here is a list of the ones that are my favorite's hope this helps

Here's my respect, man.

I can only recommend Kara no Shoujo for now.

That's based on what I've heard.

I haven't played anything that compares to Grisaia, for all I know. In terms of genre, that is.

Meanwhile, you can always read F/SN.

 

Your requirement made me all tingly inside.

I luv u.

Kara no Shoujo is actually a pretty poor fit for his request. It doesn't have heroine based routes or anything like that. It sounds like what he wants is a standard route-based bishoujo title. A lot of the most popular translated VNs actually don't fit into that genre. I'd say that right now there might actually be more that don't than do, although I feel like the trends are changing.

 

Anyways, here is a filter I whipped up in VNDB that shows you the most popular VNs that qualify for what you want: http://vndb.org/v/all?q=;fil=tag_exc-33~34~35~145~235.tagspoil-0;o=d;s=pop There are a few false positives in there (fate/stay night for instance) but it's probably a good place to start.

I got you covered brah. Quality wise it's hard to compete with Grisaia, but it's pretty easy to meet those general requirements.

 

Katawa Shoujo (not sure if you've read this)

Crescendo

Hoshimemo (You'll probably like this more than me, tsunderes and shit)

Shinigami no Kiss

Family Project

Osanadai

Otoboku (if you want a trap protag)

Shuffle

Thanks for the recommendations, everyone!

 

Don't know if I'll bother playing FSN's VN since I kind of want to watch the anime adaption without knowing what's going to happen.

Will check some of these out.

I've heard some people say Sharin no Kuni is like Grisaia no Kajitsu, though I haven't read it myself so not completely sure on that.

Sharin no Kuni is also made by same developer as G-Senjou no Maou~

[Decay]

Sharin no Kuni doesn't really have heroine routes. It's a linear story and the choices basically just lead to whose h-scenes you encounter along the way and which epilogue you see. It's similar to Grisaia in that the heroines are psychologically troubled in some ways and the main character helps them with their issues, but its characters aren't nearly as interesting as the Grisaia ones.

akatsuki no goei

Akatsuki no Goei isn't even fully translated though (and at this rate, probably never will be). Pity, since it's the closest thing to Grisaia that I know of.
