Despite what some people might assume, Japanese adventure games and visual novels are a big blind spot for me. And while I’ve enjoyed the games, most titles in the genre rarely grab my interest.

In this episode, I talk to Bowl of Lentils, who has created videos about the genre’s history and why these games matter. We go in-depth into the genre’s core appeal, history, and future outlook. We also talk a bit about the Trails series.
