VN - Ren'Py - Completed - Katawa Shoujo [Final] [Four Leaf Studios]

Katawa Shoujo is not a porn game. If you have not played it before, I urge you in the strongest possible terms to do so immediately. I could make a compelling case that Katawa Shoujo was the work of fiction that had the greatest impact on my life as a person. It got me to volunteer to work with a charity for the disabled, I wrote multiple papers on it in college, and I have quoted it for purposes both humorous and profound. Playing this game is perhaps the only way you can actually improve your life on this godforsaken website. Put your dick away and don't waste your chance.

It wasn't anything I imagined from reading the synopsis. I didn't expect a 10 year old game to be of this high quality. (Though sometimes I felt it was too drawn-out at places, Lily's and Hanako's route specifically. Its probably a me problem since a lot of other people loved them the most. )
The art is really good. About the h-scenes, this is a more romance focused game, where the sex is for adding intimacy. So, don't expect any visual gratification, but you will get emotional fulfillment from them. The music is such that people go on to YouTube to search for playlists. About the writing. It was exceptionally wholesome and made me feel a lot of emotions throughout the play through which is very rare for a h-game. That alone makes it worth a playthrough.
A lot of content is there. It took me like 40 hours to read through all the four girl's routes (I haven't played Shizune's yet), which were all well-balanced. There are bad endings as well. All the routes and the branching of the endings makes you feel like your choices matter .
After getting used to their disability of the girls over the course of the game, you slowly ignore that and love them as real people. Their respective physical disabilities (burns, no legs, blind, no arms) don't matter at all, which was unexpected to me, because I expected that to be the focus of the game. More than that, their emotional problems are what draws us in and ultimately makes their characters real people, instead of caricatures of disabled people. As Hisao navigates those, we as the reader are very invested in the story as he comes across the same problems we all face when trying to make relationships work. This game really struck a chord with me (especially Emi's route) and I expect it will for you too. So yeah, definitely give this one a try.

Besto game ever. This is for all people like me that wanted a developed vanilla story with the lust of hentai and all of that in one game with decisions. And if you think you're not going to like anything about this issue of disabled people, just download it and try it.

This game is amazing, I skipped it for years because I did not think it was my cup of thee and because it was old.

I regret that now however that also made it very sweet as I thought that I ran out of quality AVN.

Don't be like me and be put off, play it, it's a first page AVN and it really deserves to be one.

Also I would recommend to not apply the HD patch, play it in 4:3 as the HD patch crops some images at unfortunate places.....

This game was my gateway to VNs, eventually leading me to this site and being aware of the vastness of lewdness (lol)

But homing in on this game's details, I'd say it has plenty of paths to explore and dive yourself into, if you like immersing yourself in the stories of these characters.

One of the best VN games on the market that was made with a small team off the internet. The story is really well put together and all the characters have good plotlines and uniqueness. Would recommend a completion of t he game

The only bad thing about this game is that it was one of the first porn games I played years ago, and nothing since has topped it.

If you're an aspiring writer trying to figure out how to make an engaging story, you owe it to yourself to play this game. It's one of those 'Fuck, it's 3:30 in the morning and I have work in 5 hours, I'll just play a bit more..." kinda games.

Just fucking download and play it already.

This game gave me my first waifu in the form of Lilly back when I was 14. This game changed my perspective on life and relationships. This game gave me hope and comfort when I had none.

This is art. And the best part is, it was made by a bunch of random Anons from 4chan.

Just like everyone else is saying, don't go into this game expecting a lot of sexual content and you won't be disappointed. Honestly, even if you do go into it expecting a lot of sexual content you won't be disappointed, because the story and the characters will suck you in and you will forget about all your expectations. 10/10 game in every single aspect, anyone who likes VNs should play this.

Came here looking for porn, walked out with a masterpiece that moved my heart and made me shed tears. Excellent visual novel, the best one I ever played without doubts. So far only finished Lilly's ending but I don't need to wait any longer to give 5/5 review. Finished it without a need for walkthrough so that just shows how good it is written.

Quite simply the best VA ever made. You will laugh, you will cry, you will ( probably ) fall in love with at least one of the girls.
And the best part is that each girl has a fleshed out story, and it's up to YOU to see if you get the good or bad ending...and man, the bad endings are BAD. They will gut you, they will destroy your heart and leave you hollow.
But they are so worth it, because these characters are amazing.

One of the best VNs out there, definitely worth checking out.
Art is great, Story is amazing, Characters are incredibly likeable (Main Char is a dumbass at times) and of course the H-Scenes are quality.

10/10, would cry myself into a coma again

I've played Katawa Shoujo since the official version first came out and find myself returning to it every once in a while. It's one of those visual novels I can't bring myself to delete from my computer.

amazing game with lots of endings, endless content, characters full of personality and an emotional story. came for a nut stayed for a life changing sob story about disabled girls. overall one of the best visual novels i've ever played, 5/5.

This game got me into playing VN's and was my favourite then and will forever be my favourite till the day I die. This game truly has impacted me in such a way that I will remember the rest of my life. The characters in this game almost feel like real friends, no other game or show has ever made me feel that way.

I first found this title from a forum discussion, gave it a try back then and was surprised by it's complexity and how well developed each character is.

Needless to say i enjoyed everything in this title, anime art-style, sound effects, plot development, character development, story complexity, comedy, drama, surprise, well expect a certain scene though in retrospect it just proves how well made it is.

Came for a game, replayed for a heartfelt story and wonderful writing, just over all a terrific experience. Played thru for every character ending and enjoyed them all. Enjoyed the stories for each girl and the supporting cast, Cannot give this game high enough praise.

If you're younger 20 or younger you'll really enjoy this. If you're approaching your 30s it's probably not gonna be your cup of tea. I played it when I was 15 and going nowhere fast. The game does an exceptional job at grounding it world and making you believe in it very quickly. The MC isn't a giga chad with a lot of personal agency in the story- especially early on into most routes- but he's also not a cardboard cutout for you to project yourself onto, which I like a lot more than the alternative. I'd recommend you go in blind. A lot of the choices aren't obvious so if you're gunning for a certain result you might fall short, but as someone who 100% I believe it's part of the experience. I could keep going on forever but I'm sure I've hit the char limit by now. One last thing I will comment on: The soundtrack for this game is amazing. If you don't love it at first give it a chance, it would grow on you like mold and never come off.

ok im surprised to see this game on here. This game made me fall in love with one of the heroines a bit where most games fail. It is does have sexual content but it is not the center of attention. It has multiple heroines to pick from. A story that can hook you and will actually care about.

I remember when I gave this game a second try I got hooked onto the story. it ended up making my heart clench when I first played it which was years ago and I will never forget it. I stood awake trying to finish it before falling asleep as I was I was so enthralled but failed and had to wake up early to finish it.

This game takes awhile to warm up so don't expect it to hook you right out of the gate. 5/5 would play again and pick another girl if it didn't feel like cheating in my heart.

An absolute classic. Amazing art work, stories that brings a tear to your eye, characters that actually are not perfect and feel human. A good cross between a visual novel and dating sim. (and yes, it is school based) that also includes chronic ill people.
Well worth playing and replaying.
