✔️ Played on Steam Deck, it works fine (04/01/2024). 'R2' button to advance text and touchscreen for starting menu.
Outbreak is a fun and interesting extra layer added to the story, although it feels rushed and more plain than the usual Fragments. Bus stop is cool, we always enjoy learning about the origins of the stories we love. And again, more uncomfortable fanservice always touching terrible subjects and using p*d0philia as comic relief which is completely unnecesary in my honest opinion.

Saikoroshi is the only chapter worth reading from this title, the rest are just cringe fanservice.

I think the pacing in this one went terrible and it could have been half as long without affecting the story at all. Still it's a good wrap-up for the series.

Found this one a bit harder to read than the previous chapter because it takes time to build up, but it made me feel so many emotions with all the answers. We finally get the full picture of what's happening and I can't wait to read chapter 8.

Clean and well designed UI, interesting OST composition. I liked the vibes and the story despite being short has an interesting concept and touches some heavy subjects.

✔️Verified Steam Deck compatibility.
The premise and the mystery surrounding the story looked very cool at first, but it ended up being pretty disappointing. You don't really know what's happening half of the time, and the other half is just the MC being a stupid, edgy, mysoginistic and horny otaku.
It's a pretty weak vn, I would only recommend reading it if you're really invested in reading all the Sci-Adv series, otherwise it's safe to skip directly to Steins;Gate.

A cozy management/crafting game with memorable characters and a story about death and letting go and caring about your loved ones that will make you smile and cry at the same time? I'm in.
It only can get a bit repetitive/annoying if you're trying to achieve 100%.

First chapter of the Answers arc is GOOD. It lacks the painfully slow start from some of the previous chapters and it goes straight to the point, adding a lot of depth to one specific character.
The development of the plot and the answers to some of the mysteries from previous chapters was almost completely unexpected for me. I binged this whole chapter in a single day.

✔️ Tested on Steam Deck, it can run the VN (10/12/2023) but you will need to use touchscreen/virtual keyboard for most of the stuff since controller is not supported.
Despite its flaws it has become one of my favourite VNs. I must say the beginning is a bit slow for my taste and the characters introduction and initial conversations can feel a bit draining at first, but plot gets better pretty quickly and it never goes back to being boring. The time travel plot is really well built and characters are unique, memorable and well written.
The true ending feels a bit... forced? since the whole story until that point is so dramatic and fills you with so much despair and tension. Both Suzuha and Mayuri's endings made me cry so much and I lowkey wish one of those would have been the true ending but still I enjoyed reading this VN a lot.

I always feel bad for not recommending games from small creators (moreover if they are free) but I can't really bring myself to tell people to play this visual novel. Story is entertaining? Yes, if you have nothing else to read and you're looking for some short story to spend an afternoon without further commitment. Besides that, storyline is pretty basic and the characters kinda cliché (I liked the vampire tho). Also, sometimes they make choices that don't make any sense at all and even with that the story development is still kinda predictable.

✔️ Tested on Steam Deck, it works fine (28/09/2023). Directional pad to move character, B button to advance text.
I can't say I enjoyed it, because it's not a game to really enjoy, it's more like a game to make you uncomfortable and give all those heavy subjects a deep thought. I don't want to comment much on it since it's very short, just an advice: make sure to check the trigger warnings before you start playing it.

The pieces of the story fit together perfectly like a good puzzle, but the story becomes really slow paced and dragging in the second half with all the flashbacks. It was a nice read regardless.

Very cool, very fun, solid map. All the puzzles make enough sense but you will need a spatial engineer with you to build the robot.
