A while back Nutaku started to sell VN's and other eroge. Their prices are usually reasonable and it's nice to have a vendor other than DLsite or Manga Gamer. Some of their games have just echi while some still have mosaics, but most of them are adult themed and have no censorship.

Anyway I thought it would be nice to start a thread where we can give our thoughts on some of the games they have available.


I picked up Sakura Dungeon a while back and it reminded me of Thunder Warrior Raidy in terms of dungeon crawling gameplay. If you are new to the "sakura" brand, they typically just do Yuri and their art-style is fairly distinct.

Not a bad game by any means, it actually has a decent story too. I'm sort of half and half on the Sakura brand. I like Yuri as much as the next hetero guy, but I feel their work a little dry sometimes. It's still a good play despite my misgivings.


The next game I picked up recently was Sunrider: Liberation Day, a turn based strategy VN hybrid. I loaded it up to find out that it was part two of the series and did a little research, to find out that the first game was free to get off Steam (the developers site has a de-censor patch FYI).

So the next 1 1/2 days I binged the first game (Sunrider: Mask of Arcadius), and then another 1 1/2 days binging the second game. I have to say that I'm really looking forward to the 3ed part! Defiantly worth the price of admission.

If you like strategy games and VN's with a space/mecha setting, you should really give this a try. The story is well thought out and keeps you at the edge of your seat, the characters are memorable and it's overall a great series.
