ONCE UPON A TIME there was a chinese company called gamebridge/yule tong/北京娱乐通科技发展有限公司 that localized lots of classics from the 00s and early early 10s, like ever17 and memories off. well, did you know that they also made dream of the red chamber into a mother fucking visual novel
let me tell you how incredible it was when i found this. i had already been thinking "man dream of the red chamber would make a good visual novel", and lo and behold when i searched it up turns out there were TWO! one was a pc-98 sexy ero game not really worth mentioning and then there was this. there is the original version and then the expanded edition with voice acting and more stuff including what appears to be a way to play as the prince of beijing.
finding a way to get it has been pretty hard. i did find this page but i don't have anything like wechat or alipay.
and i also found a playasia listing that claims to sell you a physical copy but it sounded too good to be true so i didn't try.
of course i don't know chinese so if i do finally get this god damn elusive beautiful thing i'm gonna have to machine translate everything. but it would be all worth it.
because daiyu
to conclude here is this
and here is this as well (is artbook scans) (not nsfw even though that is an e-hentai link)
