    You may have come across Long Live the Queen by Hanako Games. I… Kinda don’t recommend it, actually. It’s more princess maker than VN, but it’s still in the same vein. And I just want an excuse to shill them because they do a lot of good stuff, and self-publish. I do strongly recommend Frozen Essence by Unbroken Hours. I also recommend Princess of Ruin though I’ve only played the demo so far; I have bought it, but haven’t actually got into it. If you don’t mind ero, there’s the timeless classic Katawa Shoujo by Four Leaf Studios. You can disable the ero portion but it’s the sort of game where it’s mostly fitting. There will never be a sequel ;_; Rei is good but short, IIRC it was a gamejam project. Evidently a veteran jammer because it doesn’t feel lacking anywhere. Aoishiro is fun but a pain in the ass because you specifically have to ignore the obvious plot hook in order to get a good end. Also a bit of a pain to track down. Unless you know how magnets work… Oh and of course the kinetic novel that’s bullshit-tier hard, 07th Expansion’s Umineko no Naku Koro Ni. Strongly recommend not using the PC sprites, which may be difficult depending on where you get a copy of it. Alternately getting voices may be difficult. In any case, one of these sites will probably come in handy: 1, 2, 3. You really should have voices for it. Umineko just isn’t the same without Kinzo’s BEEEEEEAAAAAAATOOORIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
