Did anyone ever play Snatcher by the way? I managed to play it a few years ago and despite being dated, I still enjoyed it quite a bit. It was one of those games I just couldn’t put down.

yes, its quite good, you should also consider playing policenauts if possible.

Yeah, I’ve heard good things about that. It’s meant to be a right pain in the behind to find though. It wasn’t even English was it?

Just now I’m playing Loren The Amazon Princess which is a turn-based RPG but apart from the RPG elements it plays like a VN and it is also listed on The Visual Novel Database site. I’d probably call it a rpg/vn hybrid.

It’s part of the IndieGala’s Heart Attack bundle that has several visual novels or visual novel hybrids. I actually have extra copies of couple of those otome dating sims it has, if anyone wants to try them out. (Flower Shop: Winter in Fairbrook and Always Remember Me)

I just read an article on a developer making an adventure game saying how amazing it wa that the PSVITA was such a home for adventure games and visual novels in Japan.

Many Japanese games contain visual novel elements like the new Dancing game Persona 4 Dancing All Night has a story mode which is 90 per cent visual novel.

Danganronpa 3 is now going to be releaed in 2016 and will contain both visual novel and adventure game elements.
