Self-promotion, crowdfunding, and Kickstarters:
Note: Reviews hosted off site do not count as self-promotion. Details here.
Giveaways & selling stuff:
Giveaway posts are fine, but selling stuff goes in the questions sticky. Tips here.
Non-VN related threads:
Every submission has to be visual novel-related. Some games walk the line between visual novel and actual game. For these borderline titles, discussion on them is allowed and encouraged.
News about VN adaptations is allowed.
Spoilers in submissions:
If our submission contain spoilers, mark it as spoilers after submitting, like this.
If there are untagged spoilers in your submission, mark it as spoilers.
When to use spoiler tags:
In threads not marked as spoilers always use spoiler tags everywhere in the comments.
In threads that are marked as spoilers: no need to use spoiler tags, but keep the submitter's level of knowledge about the VN in mind. Play it safe.
Always use spoiler tags in threads that are not about one specific VN. The only exceptions are series (e.g. Ace Attorney), but only if OP makes it clear that discussing all games in a series without spoiler tags is okay.
How to use spoiler tags:
Hide spoilers like this: >!hidden spoilery text!<, which shows up as hidden spoilery text. Make sure there are no spaces on either side of the text, as this will cause the spoiler to not be hidden for Old Reddit users. Do >!this!<, not >! this !<.

Bro I need it... 😪😪
Guys does anyone know how to open these three, I'm tired trying
So, I’ve heard a lot of good things about THIFM. If I’m not mistaken, it’s considered one of the highest-rated VNs of all time.
Anyway, I recently bought it to see what the hype is about, and I just finished Door 1. Now, I’m wondering if it’s worth continuing.
I already knew this game was a slow burn, but I found it hard to stay engaged. The plot twist at the end of Door 1 was slightly intriguing, but it wasn’t enough to make upp for the rest of d1.
That said, I love the art, music, and the kind of creepy vibe the game gives off, but nothing in the first part really stood out or felt particularly compelling to me.
I’ve heard that the last three doors are the best, while the others are "decent." I’m not sure if I’m willing to push through five more doors to get to the "better parts."
I understand that which parts are the best is subjective, but what do you guys think? If I didn’t enjoy Door 1, is it worth continuing?
Advise a mystery vn
I want it to be complex so i can make theories of whats happening
Finished zero escape series, danganronpa, some of ace attorney, ai somnium files, played higurashi and umineko a bit
Murder mystery would be great
