I've played many visual novels. They are a bit of an exclusive medium because many of them are untranslated or suffer from poor translations.

I started with Clannad (one of the longest ever; Rance is the longest, iirc), then the Infinity Series, the Science Adventure series, most of KID's works, Tsukihime, Higurashi, and nearly all the Denpa I could find. BTW Tsui no Sora remake recently got a fan ENG translation not even a few months ago (I helped a bit; most of the work was done by another translator who had also made translation patches for SciADV). Subahibi was based on the original Tsui no Sora.

Funny enough, I have seen VNs explode in popularity between 2023 and 2024. I have not researched why, but they have become drastically more popular online.

If you are interested in learning Japanese and experiencing some of the greatest modern novels, then you should most definitely read them.

I got engrossed in Rewrite. Thought the final arc was not as interesting as the original routes but otherwise enjoyed it. Never watched the anime.

any denpa games with a similar philosophical feel to subahibi? something with a similar schizoism preferably. never played tsui no sora but heard that its themes are mainly nietzschean/kierkegaardean as opposed to the main emphasis on the tractatus in subahibi

 

[UglyBastard]

For me it's:
Tsui Yuri ~Okaa-san ni wa Naisho da yo~
Imouto! Seikatsu ~Fantasy~
Mamagoto ~Mama to Naisho no Ecchi Shimasho~
Otome Riron to Sono Shuuhen -Ecole de Paris-

There is one visual novel I could never really get through, Cartagra: Affliction of the Soul. The first time played for like 2 hours then dropped it. The second time played without a guide and got the most mediocre ending. The third time I played with a guide for the normal ending, which unlocks the true ending on next playthrough. But then I lost the save files, and there was no way I'm going through it two more times. But last month I played Everlasting Summer, for which I did all 12 routes and got all CGs, first time doing this for any VN. After going through Everlasting Summer 12 times, now nothing seems impossible and I'm going back to Cartagra, then Kara no Shoujo.

Yes. They are all very easy to torrent off nyaa.si (in Subway Surfers).
