Putrika 1st.cut:The Reason She Must Perish

This is going to be a pretty extreme YMMV visual novel. It's also pretty short (just under 3 hours for me), so this review will also be pretty short and to the point. It's a story about a very real and very depressing part of history with some supernatural elements thrown in. If you're a fan of history, or at least know this part of history, then almost nothing in this story will surprise you at all. It will essentially be a few hours reading stuff you saw coming from very near to the beginning of the story, especially if you read the description of the game. I digress a bit, but why do visual novels give so much of the story away in their description? It takes all the power of the story away. I'm personally not a big fan of the art either, but I know it has its supporters. Voice actors did a decent to good job. Objectively the story is written decently well, it's just too short to fully flesh itself out. If they had simplified it a bit it would've been more satisfying. If you like the art and you're up for a depressing story with a mediocre ending, pick this up, it's cheap. Otherwise I'd say skip this one. I'm only hitting recommend because I know there's an audience out there for it, and it just missed the mark for me.
