品玉庵异谈 PinYuAn Tales

Played this using machine translation (https://www.reddit.com/r/vns/comments/ru4yj3/how_to_text_hook_translate_renpy_games/) as it's only available in Simplified Chinese. There are a few text messages and other images that can't be translated, but overall the writing seems pretty straightforward and it was easy enough to follow. An episodic paranormal investigation visual novel set in Shanghai. Each individual case is pretty short, but I liked how they built on each other to an ending that felt sufficiently foreshadowed and thematically satisfying. The BL content is very low, but it's labeled as "bromance" so that's about what I expected. There's just a bit of subtext as well as hints of a future relationship in the happy end. The sound design could be more interesting, but the artwork is gorgeous, especially in some of the gory bad endings. Hope this game gets an actual English translation, but even if not, I'm looking forward to more from this developer in the future!
