Just started it im going with rins route, not because i like her or anything but that music is awesome
Careful, Rin can be .. confusing. Don't judge the whole game after how her route plays out if you don't like it. And if you like it be ready to have the other routes appear more .. ordinary.

Both Rin and Lily's route both left me more pissed afterwards, but that appears to just be me in both regards.
The other four routes left me much more satisfied as a player.

I guess I can see how Rin's route can be frustrating. It was to me, but I also thought it was kind of endearing since it reminded me how confusing it can be to be a teenager in love.
What concerns Lilly I thought her route was the most... basic of all. Maybe it's because it's regular dating and Lilly doesn't seem to have any issues with anything, whether it's her disability or the disabilities of others or how she generally behaves.
I liked it, I thought it was Katawa Shoujo quality all aroud, but it's definitely the least unique route for me.

My problem with 'em was quite simple.
In Lily's route she didn't want you because you didn't change for her.
In Rin's route you had to change yourself as a person in order to get with her.
I would suggest 3 titles, 2 with rather strong/dramatic stories (for f95-games) here on f95, 1 i don't think you'll find here, but it's on steam with nice but rather 'harmless' story. Compared to KS all 3 have not as strong, but overall good stories.
F95: those 2 focus more on sex, but are relatively romancy-ish
- Acting Lessons
Somewhat controversial, MC has to make a choice at some point that leaves a bitter aftertaste to many, quite dramatic set up that scene. Otherwise a slowburn to get to sex scenes with some (including main) characters, other sex scenes quite early available. Overall really nice written, with a somewhat unexpected twist, nice renders and so on.
- Depraved Awakening
A PI-Noir background, catching the setting nicely, writing is very good overall. Up to date some of the nicest renders out there. Some quite dramatic events in the story, multiple characters that up to some point can be romanced parallel, for (iirc) all chars a dom and non-dom route (some hidden stat depending on choices made might do that). Avoidable incest.
Now a game i guess that can maybe be found for free somewhere, but its on steam and not too expensive in sales i guess:

School setting, at least one char with disability and it IS important to the story but it's not beating a dead horse, and there are a whole bunch of endings. Interesting set up: you have to finish certain endings to unlock other routes, helps telling the story from many angles. Sex (uncensor patch is out there somewhere, but can't remember where) comes late in the game and this one is probably the closest of the 3 I suggested compared to KS.
This game also has a successor on steam already, didn't try it yet but purely on how good IMHHW was i will!
I'd recommend Chrono Clock. It's another high school romance with a supernatural element of short time travel, six heroines, two need to be unlocked by completing the other routes, one is blind, she's my personal favorite. It focuses more on romance and leaves the sex til the end, two scenes each I believe. The characters are all likable, and I found the story pretty enjoyable, though I only completed one route so far because I feel a bit guilty for choosing another one.
Renpy games have 2 locations for saves, one in the game folder, the other is on the system drive like this (example is for Win10) C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\RenPy and there in the KS named folder. Delete what's in both and the game will act like first start.
If you want to keep single savegames and only reset overall progress you only delete the file named 'persistent', which should only be in the AppData.

I have played and finished both of those first two. Warning to others, Acting Lessons will make you cry a lot. Depraved Awakenings is sad but not nearly as rough as Acting Lessons.
I just finished this game, doing the Emi route and then the Hanako route. Both got to me a little bit and I think those are the only two I am interested in finishing anyway. I like the Lilly character but she just seems way too vanilla. I have always been a sucker for the broken angels.
bro u are missing out if u dont choose lilly route yes it might be a little bit vanilla but while playing if u get attached to lilly u might actually cry at the ending , i almost cried (i did not even feel that for acting lessons) but imo it was the best route

I really liked Crimson Gray, though I suspect it wouldn't be everyone's thing. It's based around a yandere love interest with a very depressed main character, and it doesn't feel overly realistic.
Can't think of many VNs I would recommend, unfortunately. I also enjoyed Re:maid but it's definitely not as engaging of a romance story, you can tell it's a porn game that wants to be funny more than anything else.

That had to have been the most awkward air-mattress wakeupMight be uncomfortable for her then. Not me. Sex with a lesbian. Get to cross it off the list.
And I don't mind anyone grabbing my balls. As long as they don't squeeze too hard.
i've experienced the morning after waking up with a lesbian.

I just finished this game on the "Hanako" route, and even though I enjoyed it a lot, it feels like it ends out of nowhere, almost as if it was unfinished.
Normally I like games that leave you "wanting more of them" - I feel like that is a good sign, on this case, however, It does seem like it doesn't cut off in the best of ways.
On her "good" ending there's at least some prospect of future, in a way, but it still feels like it's lacking some sort of epilogue.
The "neutral" ending, on the other hand, doesn't feel like an ending at all, the game just ends without warning or real reasoning.
Her "bad" ending, makes a little more sense than the neutral ending, but still feels too sudden.
With that, both the "neutral" and "bad" endings feel more like a "game over" than an ending, whilst the good ending is just a few scenes short of leaving you with that "I want to know more" feeling without being too sudden.
With that being said my question is: do the other characters have something closer to what you'd expect from an ending or is it the rule that they simply end on a somewhat sudden moment?
On a side note, I still think this game is very much worth playing, and I'll probably write a review and rate it at 5/5 after I'm done with it - the question is mostly so that I can somewhat know what to expect from the other endings (since for my taste, despite liking being left "wanting more" this particular ending still felt very sudden).

Each character route feels different. I love the Hanako route and agree the ending isn't particularly satisfying, but some of the other routes are longer and wrap up everything better. Some endings are even more abrupt and unsatisfying than Hanako's though. From my own experience, Emi and Lilly have the best good routes, and Rin has a great neutral route that I enjoyed more than her good route.

On the OP there is an alpha or beta build of the game where there is a better Hanako ending where she gets pregnant or hints at it in the end. (((This is the only route that has pregnancy in it and its her only good route out of many bad ones.)))
""" Katawa Shoujo Pre-alpha Repair + Lily Patch: """
Its very dark and needs to be played knowing that there is a lot of dark story lines to go down.
""" Original storyline that got scrapped for being too dark, most differences are in Shizune & Hanako routes. """
((I don't remember but I think Hanako stories are the only ones completed in this version if I remember right.))
