Story:Muv-Luv is a Japanese visual novel originally released as an adult game and the first game in the Muv-Luv franchise. Subsequent releases of the games were with the adult content removed. The game consists of two parts: Muv-Luv Extra and Muv-Luv Unlimited, which is unlocked after completing the two main heroine routes in Extra. The gameplay in Muv-Luv follows a linear plot line, which offers pre-determined scenarios and courses of interaction, and focuses on the differing scenarios of the female main characters. In 2015, the game, alongside Muv-Luv Alternative, photonflowers*, and photonmelodies♮, was fully funded for an English release on Kickstarter, for Windows PC via Steam, PlayStation Vita, and mobile platforms.Show more

Easily one of the best visual novels ever to be released, and a fantastic SciFi story in general. I don't understand why this was never released on GOG before. Sadly the developers / writers are a bit known to be rather chaotic or unlucky with their new releases.

One of the greatest trilogies written in any format! This one consists of the first two volumes: Extra and Unlimited. Extra is not that good, let's be honest. IMO it's best to just do Sumika's and Meiya's routes and then jump straight into Unlimited, because hoooo boy that's where the fun really starts. Simply one of the best coming of age stories of all time! Highly recommended! Please get this on here GOG because more people need to experience Muv-Luv!
One of the best VN trillogies out there. Even going as far as to influence Attack on Titan (Its true, look it up!) Everything ties together, even Extra which some people push aside. But the other two, Ultimate and Alternative, are where the story really shines! A good read!

Ciconia When They Cry
Ciconia When They Cry100 years after the world was nearly destroyed during World War III... Cutting-edge technology saved the planet from a nuclear winter, allowing its population to reach the tens of billions once more. This eventually gave rise to a new ultimate military technology, the Gauntlet. People who wore these on their left arms were called Gauntlet Knights, and without carrying any additional equipment, they could use this unrivaled power to fly like fighter planes, fight like aircraft carriers and battleships, and repel all sorts of attacks like tanks. Children all over the world were fascinated by this new kind of hero. However, because Gauntlets could only be used by those who had particular talents and underwent special training from a very young age, not even 150,000 people from across the world could control them, even if you counted preschoolers. And the number of people who actually earned the title of Gauntlet Knight was even smaller. In other words, it was becoming an era where all existing military forces would be obsolete, and where the military might of the world would be measured by the small number of boys and girls who could use Gauntlets... After competing against each other in the International Battle Standard Festival, a group of Gauntlet Knights from all over the world became fast friends, swearing to support the walls of peace from both sides and prevent another World War from ever occurring. However, World War IV was steadily approaching, like a line of falling dominos... The young are supposed to be the main characters in their own eras. But in reality, they're nothing but game pieces lined up on the board of those who are crafty and more experienced. Must these boys and girls be forced to kill each other as pieces? Who are the pieces, and who are the players? And who does the players' bidding? What victory conditions does each person have? Is it peace? War? Annihilation? Is the foretold tragedy a scheme or a delusion, the future or reality? No. There is no need to resist this tragedy. The job of a game piece is to dance about within the tragedy's grasp. What are the rules of the game, you ask? How hard is it? That's for us to decide, so it's none of your concern. All you people need to do is take pieces and get taken yourselves, entertaining us with the range of your emotions. Are you listening? You don't want to misunderstand your position. You aren't my opponent. You're merely a piece that exists for my amusement. In this next game, I won't give you the privilege of being a player! Confirmed for 4 Phases.

Sleepless: A Midsummer Night's Dream
Sleepless: A Midsummer Night's DreamThis new tale from the delightfully twisted mind of Sei Shojo, the creator of Bible Black, is set in the Black Rose Manor, where Mamiya Marie, the CEO of a powerful conglomerate, lives with her youngest daughter, Maria, and a stoic maid, Aira. When Takamiya Ryohei arrives to be Maria's new tutor, he has no idea what kind of tantalizing web he's just fallen into. As the women lure him into debauchery, all his lesson plans soon come unraveled. Yet all is not as it seems in the manor. Surely there must be some reason other than her daughter that keeps such a powerful and important CEO here within its halls. There's also the mystery of why the room next door is strictly forbidden.

Mime
MimeOnce upon a time, there was harmony and balance in the world. Four kingdoms of humans have watched over the four elements. But then a traitor appeared, who has angered the Goddess with his selfish deeds. The balance was destroyed, the elements were no more in harmony, and the world plunged into chaos... Twelve thousand years later, a young knight named Eagle Windeed has been having a strange dream. Maybe there is still salvation for the human race. Maybe it is still possible to make peace with the higher beings. Eagle arrives at a tavern near the Tree Dungeon, determined to find out what his dream meant... Mime is a dungeon crawler: the entire game is set in a maze-like dungeon environments (with auto-map). There are no "safe" areas; random enemies can pop out anywhere (the random encounter rate is however quite low). Eagle starts alone, but later in the game three other heroes join him. The battles are turn-based, utilizing the standard "attack/magic" formula. There are a few explicit sex scenes in the game.
