As a lover of both it is weird to insult the JP RPGM games without talking about the 100s of ren'py VNs, 80% (lowballing here tbh) of which have poor writing, generic models, and stock animations
There's actually a few eroge games around based on Innesmouth if you look hard enough
Also how cute was the name Lovercraft gave his adorable cat

Dear connoisseurs! I am forced again to resort to your great knowledge with the name of the game, which I can not find sad in any way
The essence is this: you are an office worker and fell in love with a colleague, but she must fly abroad in a few days. During this time, you need to manage to drag her to your home in a pre-prepared cage.
When I passed it, I was able to get out only on the most worthless ending, and later learned that there content pond-pond, and something wanted to touch it

I SHALL EXPLAIN.
OK it has to do with how her name is "spelled" in Japanese and how transliteration/translation software is inconsistent.
Her name is Merode, officially, but in japanese it's メロード. Since people don't tend to know how to read "moon runes" I'll give a quick run-down.
This writing is katakana. It's a phonetic alphabet meaning each character has a single sound and no other sound.
メ is "me" which is pronounced like "meh". Names like Ayame and Meiko use this sound.
ロ is "ro," which sounds like "row" as in "row row row your boat". HOWEVER, the letter L (technically R too but that's a separate explanation) does not exist in Japanese, so ロ is also "lo", again like "low".
the ー is an extender, it means the ロ should be drawn out a bit more. This is...hard to express in English terms because we don't really do it, but it's commonly used to transliterate words that have a hard L or R but no following vowel sound, like "Lord".
ド is "do", like "dough". You've said this a lot in your like: Kendo, judo, Aikido...you get the idea. Japanese only has one hard consonant ending sound, ン or "n" so words like "boat" transliterated end up as "boato" or "salad" as "salada".
So, in short, her name can be transliterated as: Merode, Melode, Melord, Melordo, Merordo, Merohdo, Meload, Mehloodo...all depending on who's reading it and/or what software you're using. Not helped by the fact that Merode isn't exactly a common word.
The code requires the note found in the building where you save the woman, its hard to see but the building with the curtain entrance has stairs where you can translate the note.
No NTR this time? Did she dump her boyfriend after tasting so many superior cocks?

They're not connected? I don't really want to play the other two, but if this one's a sequel, I might play the prequel too no matter what, because, idk, that's just me

idk the timeline of events but pretty sure this game is self-contained and doesn't reference the other games since this came out first before the other two. So yes,you can play this one without having played the other games.

Innsmouth and the fishpeople are a big Lovecraft reference. Also there was a skyrim mod with a very similar concept that probably inspired it.
I don't really want to go searching right now, but I looked into this once, and I believe he was actually being classist against poor rednecks.
Or, at least, this was a possible interpretation, rather than racism.
Still bigoted, just a different kind of bigotry.
But, anyway, insert Death of the Author here (which isn't about literal death, but that the author loses the right to dictate the meaning once he releases his work), and the original story is pretty damn good.
You just head to the town at the end and select the brothers instead of the ones that can't talk.
