I saw "Sandbox" in tags, so I'm wondering if there are repeating h-scenes here, or if they happen once.

Who put that tag here. This game is not a sandbox, the story move forward, with choice and some minor combat or mystery solving. You don't get to choose with LIs you process first
I think there is a point where you can choose the order of seeing things ... that basically triggers the sandbox forum tag I think, even if it's really just a free-roam.

True, but I can't think of anything else. Someone still has to report it if it's not in the listed tags, so maybe no one has?

They need to fix the sandbox tagging if that's the case. Keeps mislabeling free roams as sandbox. U4iA also has a sandbox tag.

Point and click, puzzles, management and turn based combat better describes the free roam sections than sandbox does. Ironic considering there's no point and click tag here even though there are explicit point and click mechanics. What we really need is an adventure game tag for games like this. This isn't a sandbox by any sane standard, but it's also more than just a visual novel.

I think that was part of the reworking of the tag system that was planned but doesn't seem to have ever been implemented ... or if it was, doesn't seem to have been retroactive.

I don't know what happened to the new tag system that was supposed to be implemented, but it's a shame it was abandoned, because the site desperately needed it. There are so many tags that group together things they shouldn't, sandbox being probably the best example. 90% of the games with that tag aren't actually sandbox games, and it's gotten to such a ridiculous point that people looking for sandbox games can't rely on the tag anymore, since their search is flooded with games they're not looking for. And those who want to avoid it still have to keep it on, because there are things they are looking for mixed in there...

The proposal was too ambitious. Some games the pop up element on the latest updates page would probably go to the bottom of the screen. Realistically they should've just proposed adding adventure game and sandbox as base tags, like we have for VN. Then separated the trans from the futa, added netori and netorase, differentiated between lesbian and gay content with lesbian and gay routes, and told us when something is avoidable.
Maids are great but we don't need a maid tag just because there's a single maid. Freckles are great but we don't need a freckles tag just because a single girl has freckles. Way too many proposed tags and too many of them were somewhere between silly and useless.

True, you need fuel and an oxidizer to produce a flame, with oxygen usually being the oxidizer and mana being the fuel in this kind of magical world.
Water -> H2O so oxygen is there. Magnesium for example is so reactive as a metal "Mg" that it breaks the H2O bound taking the oxygen out of the water to form Mg(OH)2 while leaving H2 gas.

Magnesium + Water -> Magnesium hydroxide + Hydrogen
Mg + 2 H2O -> Mg(OH)2 + H2

So the question is now: Is mana in this world as reactive as magnesium metal or is it more like carbon/coal?
It being as reactive as magnesium would be interesting as there would be an inherent danger of spontaneous combustion or a runaway reaction when using magic not carefully enough :D

Also they need tag for the render progam, like Honey Select, Daz, 2d. That's what they should really do. And I agree, we should has tag X and tag X (optional) for more controversial content.
