Not a big horror person, I do like some horror games though. I don't play them a lot though... Any good Japanese horror movies?

if you can read japanese, you should try to play some sound novel games. those are text based game (like VN) but most of the games are horror games. here's a presentation of the genre https://youtu.be/vvPaFpX5Rw0?si=K9u7d9rhBq5_bHuB (tho I don't think you could find those games easily on internet ) here's the first game presenting the genre https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Otogiris%C5%8D here's a website with some good horror sound novel games http://endaso.blogspot.com/2014/03/playstation-horror-sound-novels.html?m=1 http://endaso.blogspot.com/2011/10/super-famicom-horror-sound-novels.html?m=1 also, I wish I was more of an Halloween guy, Like I would do Halloween stuff but I have no friends IRL, so I don't do so much and I wish I knew japanese because I would have played SN horror games during october, would have been very comfy. One of my idea was playing SN horrir games with a friend and eating sweets while playing/reading it and commenting on it but to bad have no friends to do so I had a list of sound novel games but lost it, will try to found it. I hope I made you comfy with my post

>>538 here's a list of sound novel games

>>539 What is this!? An image for ants?

>>540 You can just zoom in...

>>539 where higurashi

>>543 higurashi is also a sound novel but, it looks lile more of a visual novel

>>543 nipah~

>>546 so what do you say, 7th expension present the game as a sound novel but it looks lile a visial novel to me, what do you think?

>>565 >sound novel >light novel What's the difference?

>>566 a sound novel is a video game while a light novel is a book

>>567 Oops, I meant "visual novel", not "light novel"

>>568 well visual novel and sound novel don't have the same game design. in visual novel, (like in higurashi) you have a character standing in a wallpaper behind it and a textbox where you can read what it is said. in a sound novel, you have a different view on the characters and the textbox get the whole screen or more or less. to me it's not the same but I was said I was bitching about making categories for nothing. but I think I still have a point and higurashi is visual novel more than a sound novel. just go watch on yt. you'll see the difference inbetween visual and sound novel
