Your favorite itch.io otome games at the moment?

Reading the replies and you guys are dropping some new titles I haven't tried out yet and it makes me wanna go try them out rn! As for my favorites, I love Aloners, Wilder: Ran's Story and ofc A Date with Death.
 
my most favorite's blooming panic, but since that one's already been mentioned... seven kingdoms: the princess problem!!!! it's a stat raiser, and it looks pretty old-school, but if you don't mind that (it's part of the charm imo), i'd definitely recommend it!
My gosh, I'm so glad to see someone else mention seven kingdoms, it's been so long since I last tried out the demo...I wonder if it ever got a full release

I replay a lot of my favorites every so often (many which have already been mentioned!) but the most recent one I've enjoyed was Take Two by Nekoii Studio.

No one asked but chatroom games and games with a lot of slang are my deterrents.
 
i have played too many of them but i'm unfortunately also knee deep into the freak circus. being brazilian and noticing the little tidbits related to my country feels nice.

also a date with death. grim is my meow meow and i'd commit crimes and evaporate the sun for him.

I really limited myself with my post...many of the games people posted aren't otome (well, solely). Well, in that case I'll recommend For The Trees.
 
Bloody Painter is the only game I've played on itch.io, so I'd say it's my favorite since I haven't tried any others. It's short, perfect for passing an afternoon, and if you like the horror genre, it has a bit of body horror and suspense. I recommend it.

- Love the Guard, be the King, I like this cause it was so different then my expectation, it doesn't shy away from the gruesomeness and reality of being a guard to the king or to royalty.
- Keyframes, one of the games I'm really looking forward to this year, but love the casualness of it and that the romance is sutble
- Andromeda six
- The Second Sight, they've started the second book but I've always love fantasy in regarding to other worldly people and things. I felt like they do it justice romance is in there but it's not in your face
- Scout, never been completed pretty much abandoned but it's what started me on the IF journey and will always have a soft spot in my heart

What I enjoy

- Cantata
-When Twilight Strikes
-When Stars Collide
-Vactica (by the same author of Cantata)

You should try Ebon Light! It is completely free and fully released! The game doesn't get enough recognition but you can feel the love and work in the game!

I still haven't seen anyone recommend Welcome Home yet. I guess that's understandable since the game is still pretty new. I only found out about it yesterday because one of my favorite Bilibili channels just uploaded a video about it hehe.

One of the biggest strengths of this game is definitely the gorgeous CGs, and there are A LOT of them. I also thought the story was pretty good. I personally love romance games with horror elements mixed in sooo this game is very much my cup of tea. There are also NSFW scenes (the LI literally gets a nosebleed while having sx with you :blushing:
The game is already complete, I don't have to sit around waiting for the next update anymore

As for the downsides, The game doesn't have voice acting, there's only one LI (although I'm not even sure if I should count this as a downside because I'm a harem enjoyer, so don't take this one too seriously), and the game is WAY too short for my hunger for fucked-up men.

If anyone's interested, pls check it out! I'll leave this picture here so you can see just how gorgeous the art are :blushing:

Oh, yes! The game currently supports three languages, including English. However, you might not be able to find it by searching for it directly on itch.io. Try searching for "Welcome Home Chang" instead. It should be much easier to find that way!

i just played this one last week and it was a lot of fun!! and the art was so pretty
 
here's some from my collection:

intertwine: A recurring dream. A flash of deja vu. An undeniable connection. Some say these are remnants of our past lives—echoes of the memories we've made in centuries past. When I ran into you on that fateful day...
seekL: After clicking an old link on a forum, you've stumbled into a server of strange hackers, each with their own axe to grind. They're (reluctantly) willing to give you some lessons, but is there something else to gain during your time here?
incursion: You're on your way home from a long day at work one typical Friday night when a chance encounter on the bus with a handsome stranger leads to an evening you'll never forget.
When The Night Comes: Play as a renowned Hunter; a creature slayer who has been called to the quiet, strange little town of Lunaris to assist the local Enforcers with an investigation into a series of unsettling and unexplained supernatural murders.
Cryptid Coffeehouse: everyone's heard of mothman– the big, scary, feathery moth creature that haunts around the outskirts of point pleasant, west virginia– but no one's ever heard of it like this! in some random idyllic midwestern town, you meet artemis (aka mothman) at your favorite coffee shop and begin an agonizingly slow burn romance with them.
Let's meet tomorrow: After countless nights spent talking online, you're finally meeting Silas, the friend who made you laugh, listened to your secrets, and quietly stole your heart. He's visiting your country for a few days, and you're determined to make every moment count. Maybe even confess how you really feel. But as the day unfolds, something feels… wrong. Was Silas always this sweet towards you ?
Titan Arum: After years of being a ghost writer on the road, you get the opportunity to finally tell your own story. When your plans change unexpectedly, you end up moving into your family's recently bought home while they're away on vacation. Through chance encounters with people from your past, present, and a potential future interest, you explore the most pressing story you've ever told: your own.
Please Don't Hate Christmas!: You last celebrated Christmas a few years ago. This year, you returned to your hometown---Snowflake Island, with your childhood friend, Albert. Albert treats you so well that you choose to stay forever. However, you forgot something in the past, and it's still not solved...

  • Binary Star Hero, free VN by CONCRETEPARASITE. One of the bad endings was really something else! Sadly, this game is no longer available, because author deleted game's page from itch.io
  • Cracks | Too Late: Frozen and Cracks: Trick Of The Light by Lamia Willow has amazing art and story, exploring some really heavy stuff. Love all little details and effects author carefully put in their work.
  • Don't eat the cashier! by DETCc. Can't believe this gem is free! Loved humor, art and all the LIs.
  • Lake Of Voices by GBPatch. Another great free VN with so many different endings, this is truly a game where every decision matters. Loved dark atmosphere and characters. And man, do I feel bad for Lu in all endings.
  • Mushroom Oasis by DeersphereStudios with very cute and lovable LI, I hope author will update this game soon.
