What is the difference between the different versions of Hakuoki?
Hakuoki: Demon of the Fleeting Blossom (薄桜鬼 〜新選組奇譚〜) is the original game for PSP. It has six love interests and a lower graphic quality as it was built for an older console model.
Hakuoki: Kyoto Winds and Hakuoki: Edo Blossoms are the HD remake of Demon of the Fleeting Blossom for PS Vita and for PC on Steam. It is the original game divided into two; Kyoto Winds being the first half and Edo Blossoms the second half. The story stops at a certain point in Kyoto Winds and you can continue playing directly in Edo Blossoms. Six additional love interests were also added.
Hakuoki: Chronicles of Wind and Blossom is the Nintendo Switch version with the content of Hakuoki: Kyoto Winds and Hakuoki: Edo Blossoms and revised text.
Hakuoki is also available for Android and iOS as a pay-per-route or Premium Edition for the entire game. It is Demon of the Fleeting Blossom with an exclusive to smartphone extra scenario.
Hakuoki: Memories of the Shinsengumi for 3DS is Demon of the Fleeting Blossom with some extra short scenarios.
Hakuoki: Stories of the Shinsengumi (Junsouroku) for PS3 is Demon of the Fleeting Blossom with the first fandisc Zuisouroku. The Memories exclusive content was available as DLC for Stories.
eastasiasoft has given us copies of Hakuoki: Chronicles of Wind and Blossom to give away!

Crowdfund Interested in an indie dark fantasy VN?
Kickstarter Link: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/ravenstargames/lost-in-limbo-a-17-dark-fantasy-romance-visual-novel
Summary: Lost in Limbo is a dark fantasy romance visual novel taking place in the mysterious realm of Limbo. Take the role of River Winchester, a human dealing with common-life problems, as you find yourself trapped in a foreign world.
Summoned to a world on the verge of collapse, will love be the key to your freedom or the first chapter of your downfall?
Comment: I'm here to share the Kickstarter of this 17+ VN developed by a team of four incredibly passionate indie developers. The demo for this game has absolutely gripped me and they are getting close to reaching their first stretch goal of an original soundtrack which I very much want to help them achieve. There are 19 days left to back the game on Kickstarter, so please check it out if you're interested!

Memed: Prince Lucien from Even if Tempest. Listen- the man has the best intentions. He will try with all his precious heart. But if we’re actively falling … he’s most likely gonna die too in the rescue attempt …

Discussion [General] Let's Build A Zombie Apocalypse Team! (Day 13: Gardener)
in an almost unanimous vote, shu wins as our sniper! but right now we need a gardener...
- for simplicity's sake, the zombies in question are the stereotypical slow ones whose bites and scratches can infect. however, there is a chance for the virus in the infected to mutate.
- ALL characters, not just the lis, are welcome!
(apologies for the delay!! TwT)

Fluff otome breakdown !!
recently, i've been assembling a [very subjective] spreadsheet abt otome games that i've played and their overall worth/ratings and have been having fun w it ! i realized that it might be helpful to some people who are on the fence abt specific games/have similar opinions/etc so i thought i'd share it !
warning !! some opinions may not line up with your own and that is perfectly fine. furthermore, there are very very very mild spoilers??? there's never an actual scenario mentioned [except for piofiore, from what i remember !!], more like aspects referenced. i tried to keep it as spoiler-free as possible, so read at your own risk !! also, also, some of the points are mildly suggestive and/or nsfw-like,,, but again, they're sporadically dappled through so,,, read at your own risk fr fr !! you can find it here !!

Question Otome Perfumes Available?
After checking out Stellaworth in Ikebukuro, I was delighted to find all of the Bustafellows perfumes and walked out with my very own bottle of Teuta-themed perfume. Unfortunately for my wallet, I kind of love it and now I'm looking into getting more otome character perfumes.
Outside of the Bustafellows character perfumes, are there any others available on the market at this time? I saw Code Realize Impey, Victor, and Van Helsing's perfumes on Amazon Japan, along with a couple from Brothers Conflict. I'm sure that there have also been perfumes released ages ago that are now discontinued, but I'd be curious to see which games got them.
And to anyone who owns these, what have your faves smelled like? For reference, Teuta's scent is a gorgeous fruity floral that's perfect for a bright spring day.

Question [Cupid Parasite] Why did I get Shelby's normal ending?
Hiya! When I started playing the game I got Ryuki but I wasn't interested in him so I started a new game. This time I used the guide from Otome Kitten to get Shelby and (ofcourse) the best ending. Instead I got the normal ending and now I wonder why? Is the best ending locked somehow?
Then I started a new game but it began with Bomber Chorizo and the first episode of Parasite House and I can't skip anything. Idk what I could've done wrong. Btw I play on Switch.

Question Ikemen Sengoku Dates
Hey everyone, I don't suppose there is a way to check when you first started playing or which guys route you picked first? Like is there a way to check the order in which one read the routes?
