I finished Day 2 of the demo, and they let you play up through Day 7, out of supposedly 100.

It's great so far! Feels just like Danganronpa except it has turn-based strategy.

I guess that fact makes it not exactly a visual novel but I'm not too hung up on it, and decided to post in this community anyway since the fanbase would be here. (And I mean, games like Sakura Wars three decades ago had the same formula and are called visual novels, so)

The English dub is really good so I kept it on English. Lately I'm finding myself doing that more often. English voice actors can sometimes have great range and expressiveness, probably helped that they come from a variety of different backgrounds. I appreciate that they pronounce the Japanese names impeccably in this game.

Japanese voice actors lately - either I'm old and have listened to them for too many years, or many of the newer VAs are limited in range and feel kinda stiff.

Just wanted to hear what the community is into!

I mainly like mystery and romance VNs, and recently played episode 0 (the demo) of of the Devil (which I loved and I instantly bought episode 1) and played the demo for Urban Myth Dissolution Center (visually impressive but the story and MC didn't catch me).

Apart from that I'm very slowly working through Mamiya, on my second playthrough of Jack Jeanne, and in the middle of my first route of Lkyt!
