Worst route you’ve played? (kbin.cafe)

I’m curious about the worst route you’ve played. Feel free to answer for “worst” in terms of subjective enjoyment, but also feel free to answer for “worst” in terms of objective analysis—poorly-written, unfitting, bug-ridden, etc.

I played: Butterfly's Poison; Blood Chains

I recently finished playing Butterfly's Poison; Blood Chains and thought I'd leave a review to get some conversation going in here....

Trying to play someone else’s route (kbin.cafe)

I go in intending to play another LI’s route for a change, but I end up choosing the choices that I know will set me on my favorite’s route all over again....

One last exocolonist run, but is it even possible? Ending spoilers for I was a teenage exocolonist.

So last time I started a run I said it was going to be the last one. A standard teenage love story where the childhood best friends end up together after the girl gets hurt by a bad guy, but I didn't like the ending that resulted in for either party....

What do you think IFI will announce at Anime Expo? (www.anime-expo.org)

GameStop's buy one get one sale includes 3 otome games (www.gamestop.com)

The sale is poorly labeled but Amnesia and Amnesia Later x crowd as well as both the standard and limited editions of Piofiore 1926 are part of the sale. I picked up all 3 and got live a live to round it out.

Charade Maniacs is out today for the switch (iffysonlinestore.com)
