All the FVNs I've read and would actually recommend, grouped here for me to give anyone if they show the slightest bit of interest. I hope you know what you got urself into :3
A VN not having a blurb to go with it doesn't mean much, just means it's a good read on its own with no explanation needed. I'll prolly throw non-spoilery content warnings there if I can or need to too. For most of em you can just read their pages/genres and it'll tell you a lot about what's in it. Barely anything here is just slice-of-life-y so there's definitely some not-so-feel-good content in all of em, but feel free to ask if you need specifics o/
honestly? a solid lil thing to play through
just like adastra, nothing groundbreaking, and you could also fault the MC for not doing shit on his own but he's trying!
the characters aren't not just pretty basic tropes at first but they grow more into their own thing as you read and experiment with routes. so like, basic character growth. but jsyk it's there. romance is a hell of a slow burn for 3/4 of the routes too which is honestly really nice
also, holy fuck there's so much variation in how routes can go. 15 stats in total that can affect scenes in different ways and change what points you score with characters that affect other stuff later. it's a lot (but if you need a super simple rundown of how to see like 90% of it, just ask uwu)
10/10 + superb + phenomenal + must read + im begging you
if the hornyness isn't your thing, stay for the characters, they're legitimately wonderful and I can't say enough good about em. the initial horny passes quick and every explicit NSFW scene is optional.
Dallan's the best boy but all 3 boys so far are really good, Aiden's an EXTRMELY close second, and Tartarus' route is just the strongest so far
also voted #1 for the potential to put me in the deepest depression if it can't get finished
All that said I *do* have Thoughts about Certain Plot Points, but
I'll be honest
I WANT to like this one but there's really not much super interesting going on yet. but the MC isn't useless so tbh that's a good sign it's going somewhere decent I think. it's on here for the promise of a good read :9
the chapter select is really fucking cool tho, like, more VNs need to do it something like this
Aldric is a dear and I can't wait to see what kind of horrific shit he and the MC have to go through to reconnect with eachother
only two builds in, not a ton to say, but what's here is p darn enjoyable so far. lighthearted but with the kinda creepy shit + mystery that I just eat right tf up
another OG. not groundbreaking, but still a p good and very emotional read if you're new to FVNs
man gets isekai'd into his own furry world as his fursona that he doesn't call his fursona
another one I just love the characters of tbh, and I wanna see where it goes
superb lil' DnD kinda novel. characters are great, it's got a lotta interesting threads and hooks setup and I wanna see where it goes
also, not a fan of toilet humor but what happens to arty's mom in chapter two is the fucking funniest possible thing that could happen at that moment
do you want to cry
read this one
don't spoil it for yourself
just read it
it's already finished and you can read it in one sitting
I'll actually recommend this one again just 'cause it's interesting enough and ALSO the MC actually gets shit done.
Like, he might be kinda boring, but goddamn. This man's motivated as hell.
August, my other other beloved........................................
really, REALLY good one. prologue is a lil slow or awkward but bear with it. with a few sore spots just because it's still in progress, it feels v well put together and it's a real treat to just read and not rush
and idk how they wrote a 10 year old fortnite kid so accurately but he's the funniest fucking character on this whole list
"Morenatsu but better" - Sign Dhole, 2023
my all time favorite at this point tbh. slice-of-life, but there's a lot of backstory/trauma to learn about and deal with.
read violet memoir to meet:
(okay but really all jokes aside it has a v interesting overall plot and I wanna see where it goes)
another p interesting world, interesting problems, etc. if you like learning about new kinds of ways to do magic in media then give it a read :9
just expect very
anatomically correct anatomy. there's a reason it's at the top of the triangle lol
hey remember No More Future? the artist made their own VN and it's also SO FUCKING GOOD
gay space dogs (with a human MC who inner monologues a LOT, but it's all world/setting building, ultimately, I think? so it works???)
rhoun is my other husband (but we can't share this time)
weird, gritty art style that grows on you as you get into it. it left me with some really weird (but good! I think) feelings and honestly u just gotta experience it
also it has some REALLY cool fucking character designs
up there with NMF with how stylish it is. not sure which overtakes which but it's still a fun read
actually the best overall art style + presentation of any vn here. it's so fucking good and I love the characters + world and the soundtrack fucking slaps
Hey this one actually has some endings
Literally an entire half of this game is done
Just accept his help, uwu
Lake... My beloved...............................
super fucking easily one of my faves. the vibes are immaculate, couldn't ask for better
Redline is my husband (and we can share dw)
honestly a super fucked up (but entirely possible and still interesting) premise but I swear this dev has a thing for seeing furries get their shit kicked in
(FINISHED)
first build v good. also has the only CG in any horror VN so far that's legitimately upsetting to look at lol
