I believe they're all classed as Eroge (Steam version possibly leaving one or more scenes out or their CG at least.) but I know what you mean, think it was called Nukige meaning basically a focus on just sex and the story development takes a backseat between jumping from one erotic situation to another. First game featured a bit more development in that regard before you got to these scenes near the end of it whereas I'm guessing both these sequels feature more sex scenes though I haven't played part 3 yet so perhaps the author has listened a bit on feedback from the previous installment and dialed it down a bit but I wouldn't be surprised if it's more of the same only switching which of the various girls you're now interacting with. There were quite a few of them albeit they mostly have supportive roles aside from like two per each chapter. (No idea how the author plans to wrap it all up in the end, perhaps there isn't much of a plan behind it.) Guessing length hasn't changed much either so if there's more erotic scenes that means less story development and such if they're still 3 - 4 hours long depending on the players reading speed. EDIT: Likely still phonetic as well meaning there's no input or choices for the player on which action to take or such.

Been thinking of picking this up but I haven't really had much time lately and this is apparently a re-release of the original game from 2013 then split into three episodes which is the version Mangagamer licensed so I'm likely going to wait until they're all available first, not really sure how long the actual game is either. Guessing it'll pop up here in a while or on the Sukebe.Nyaa tracker (Nyaa having the all ages content, Sukebe.nyaa having the adult stuff.) seems the price is around 25$ and MG does tend to price their games based on length as I remember so ~75$ for all three episodes would mean it's on the longer side though they might squeeze in some extra money via this episodic release but 50$ - 60$ is usually a fairly long game even so. Though if I do pick it up earlier I'll send it over to Ivan if he hasn't already uploaded it, just been busy with other things lately so haven't had time for these games lately as I said. Especially the bigger releases whether it's all ages or adult though I'm guessing this is mostly sex driven but going by the blog posts Mangagamer did there's a bit of story too. (Episodic split focusing on a few bits at a time or some such.)

Had some interesting extra route in the first game as I remember and then in the second game the protagonist is like the grandkid to the guy in the first but you don't even see him or the chosen heroine besides a couple of quick references. No idea what happened in the spin-off games as I haven't played them and D.C III well something must have happened now if magic and stuff just happens to be around for some reason.

Denkigai and Comiket! ? MangaGamer Staff Blog EDIT: Maggot Baits? Heh and here I thought Euphoria had some pretty strong content. http://hgamecg.com/index/category/854-_clockup_maggot_baits (Well it does I suppose but this is a bit even above that it would seem.)

That's usually the case, can probably be seen in several VN's both fan translated and done by e.g MangaGamer or Jast or whoever else there is. (Sekai project and other more recent companies doing translations of both adult and all-ages VN's or making adult VN's into all-ages ones regardless of how much has to be cut, heh doubt I'll ever understand that.) "rub-a-dub-dub thanks for the grub." as seen in a certain game from Mangagamer is probably not quite the best match for the Itatakimasu or eh I probably butchered that spelling. (Post the machine translated VN'sof their early first and second year heh had really hoped they would revisit and update more - all. - of those games but that's probably unreasonable and especially now with some of those original VN companies having closed down too probably making licensing and such difficult.) EDIT: Forgot if it was Jast, MangaGamer or both (And various fan translations to?) but I do like the little documentation provided with some games explaining the translators reasoning behind certain terms and keeping or changing more common things like say the honorific system and what not, doubt I'd ever learn Japanese well enough myself but it's interesting to read their reasoning behind certain choices like that. (Expressions and other sayings and well it's probably pretty difficult to translate some of these VN's into English both accurately and with also having to ensure the reader can understand most of it without totally changing certain parts.) EDIT: Ah right there was also a test or questionnaire in one of Jast's games which they changed from Japanese themed questions and answers to English ones. (Think it was Jast at least.)

https://vndb.org/g718 That might help, just go with the ones with a English flag if you're looking for translated titles. (Both fan and official releases I believe.) E-Hentai Galleries - The Free Hentai Doujinshi, Manga and Image Gallery System Or that for just the CG, as per their rules though not all galleries are available as some of the content can be restricted even to registered users. (Imouto Paradise to name one game has a route with one of the female characters being a more dominant type but some other characters are a bit younger looking - Though not quite say Jewel Knights Crusaders "All characters are above 18 years old, honestly. JAST" - heh.) ...And it also depends on just how well tagged certain titles / galleries are so say instead of using a simple term to find certain types of content featured in some of these games you have to instead learn these Latin terms for fetishes that you never knew existed. (And some which probably should not exist either. ) Or certain Japanese terms for about the same really, Irrumatio or what it's called to name one related to blowjobs and then there's a couple of hundred or so more for anything from behaviors - Tsun or Yan -Dere being popular there. - and other traits - Ideal Woman for example to simplify that one. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yamato_nadeshiko - to well various perversions and who knows what more. (Shibari for certain rope arts and yeah I've been playing VN's for far too long. )

Melody of Grisaia is out on Steam. Guessing this is the same as the two(?) others were the Steam version is a bit toned down and the adult version will be released separately sometime in the distant future. EDIT: Actually from reading up on it it looks like this was a all-ages VN to begin with.
-
https://denpasoft.com/shop/muv-luv-directors-cut-patch/ Muv-Luv "Directors Cut" patch is out on Denpasoft, restores the adult scenes from the previous (Steam?) release of the game. Restores does not mean uncensored though, it's still using mosaic but they're no longer completely cut out of the game.

MangaGamer has been trying to acquire the Taimanin Asagi license from Lilith actually but they felt it better to start with some less known titles to start out with and then continue from there, how that worked out I'm not too sure on but I'm guessing they're still active even if there might be not be any upcoming releases from them currently. (Exactly how that works I'm unsure about, I can understand it's not exactly going to be possible to just license stuff from the bigger studios due to costs and sometimes a bit of a aversion to the western market in general but when you have a contract established why not go for some of the more known titles too besides the first Taimanin games are a bit older now so I don't see a problem but there were probably other reasons behind it too.) Far as CG and similar works I'm mainly using websites such as G.E Hentai for viewing them directly ( E-Hentai Galleries - The Free Hentai Doujinshi, Manga and Image Gallery System ) but some of these do have restrictions on content available even to active and registered users. (Far as G.E is concerned they're good but there's various limits requiring contribution in order to view certain types of content.) Though as for uncensoring I'm unsure if there's any good way to do this short of the original CG somehow leaking from the VN developers directly or a very skilled fan or group of fans essentially re-draws the mosaic covered parts, will differ from the official art of course if it were ever to be made available (For example if it was licensed.) but some of these projects are pretty good. (Fairly certain this was done for Fate Stay Night to name one example.) Pretty sure I also heard Japanese law enforcement actually raiding some place where they had a (likely non-functional.) machine for automatically de-mosaic old adult videos but I'm not too certain how accurate that info is, doubt such a machine could have worked though as there's many different ways to censor whether it's pixel mosaic, just not showing certain parts during certain scenes or using some more exotic stuff like the "light-saber" like glow effects of some early 1990's media or having it being covered by fog or otherwise blacked out or blurred/obscured in some way. (Also varies a bit just how much censoring is used from sometimes next to nothing and then heavily censored and then maybe pubic hair or the ass is OK, heh no idea how those decency laws work or what the actual requirements are.)

Brave Soul is uncensored, was licensed by Jast a couple of years back (It's a fairly old game, mix of visual novel and light JRPG mechanics.) but there's not that many different scenes for each of the heroines.
-
It kinda is although I do not know how well tagged some of the earlier uploads might be. In any case in general if a upload has the "USA Released" tag it's generally uncensored barring any special circumstances (Minori for example employs minimal pixelization for "fear" of reverse import - similar to the Japanese "hentai" video industry these last couple of years I believe? - and some studios no longer have the uncensored material due to the age of some of these titles.) and if it's not licensed well per law it has to be censored either via mosaic or similar or by simply not showing certain parts during certain scenes. EDIT: Quality can be pretty varied though, especially for some of the earlier Jast licenses where it almost feels like they doodled something resembling genitals back onto the CG art. (Granted if it's going to be censored anyway some studios don't put much detail on these body parts in the first place.)

Euphoria? Bit strong for some though, Eroge? It has some "shitty" moments though to call it that but usually only one or two per route. Imouto Paradise has some interesting content as well (And the weirdest way to ever get to harem route?) Starless? The intimate moments are pretty lengthy though, tons of text to where you could probably fit in some smaller length VN's in the time it would take to read all of that. Many of the older Jast licenses were a bit less tame current ones too, translation quality varied a bit though. (Though nothing is ever going to beat Mangagamer and it's first two years with partial machine translations possibly being more legible.) VNDB has a pretty good list of tags as well if there's something in particular you are looking for. https://vndb.org/v2762 (Many titles appear to be using the original Japanese name which well some of the English licenses are a bit original in their re-naming, Suck My Dick or Die! from MangaGamer being one notable example though the original name is pretty strong too I suppose with something like Rape Guerrilla Commando or what it was. )

ENIGMA: Now On Sale! ? MangaGamer Staff Blog Quest Failed On Sale Now! ? MangaGamer Staff Blog Enigma and Quest Failed are out now from MangaGamer. (Sunflower seem to be coming out in early December as well.) JAST DevLog Nothing from Jast yet so far it would seem. https://denpasoft.com/?age-verified And DenpaSoft seem to be publishing those Sakura games now. Steam? Well Steam is seeing daily indie releases from attempts at VN games with varied success though some larger studios appear to now be using it as well for their all-ages content. (Or forcing all-ages on content that probably might not be entirely suitable to such conversions...heh.) EDIT: Seems Ouroboros is also set to be released in a few days from Mangagamer, using what looks like fairly standard RPG Maker assets and custom CG's from something resembling MS Paint.

Was wondering about that myself, going by the CG gallery ( [Norn] Kemomimi Harem Vacation ~Inaka de Nonbiri Mofumofu Kemonomimi Shoujo-tachi to Kozukuri Zanmai~ - E-Hentai Galleries ) there's not much left if you remove the adult content, I guess the game fades to black or some such in the Steam version then unless it was cut entirely but that's about as bad as those Hirameki "DVD play" conversions from a few years back then.
