      Your request was very broad but I’ve really enjoyed “of The Devil”, it’s and indie courtroom mystery VN with gambling mechanics! Episode 0 is free :>

        Yes sorry I didn’t give any helpful information. I’m pretty new to VNs, just know the romance factor isn’t high on my list.

      It’s kinda hard to suggest anything without knowing what you’ve already read. I’ll go with some popular and safe choices for now.

      • If you don’t mind long winded mystery novels with lots of slice of life moments then Higurashi and Umineko series are always a decent choice.
      • VA-11 HALL-A is a great low stakes story set in a cyberpunk future.
      • Go! Go! Nippon! has a tiny bit of romance depending on your choices but is mostly about visiting famous Japanese sightseeing spots.
      • I haven’t played it myself but I’ve heard a lot of good things about Slay the Princess. It’s more of a meta story with things changing each time you play.
      • The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog is a short but fun mystery story if you like the series. It’s free too.
