Summary from the Nintendo page:
Flower shop clerk Honoka has been occupied with her work.
One night, when she visits the park that she normally goes to.
She’s been cursed by the odd-eyed black cat that she becomes a cat only at night.
There’s only one way to break the curse.
――To have a true love’s kiss.
In order to break the curse, she lives a double life as a human by day and cat by night……
Wow. I’m amazed by the amount of things included in this demo! I thought — expected even, that it would stop at the common route which in this case the prologue. But the creators are generous enough to give one chapter each guy which lasted for about 20 minutes each and also contains a CG. That’s plenty enough. 🤩

Summary from the Nintendo page:
That was one month ago today.
Someone has murdered Saburo’s grandfather, Kyosuke, while he was living in New York.
Saburo sets off to New York to sort through the belongings and memories his grandfather left behind.
The nostalgia of the cityscape and reunions with old friends is fleeting, however.
He soon discovers that his grandfather’s last word was, ‘Daedalus.’
What does it mean?
Why was my grandfather killed?
“Remember, Saburo: tend the orchard of your mind.”
Kyosuke’s words and teachings on the art of thinking are just distant memories.
And yet, young Jinguji Saburo who is alone in the world, takes up the gauntlet for himself and for his late grandfather!
First things first, this post is for the demo of Alternate Jake Hunter: DAEDALUS The Awakening of Golden Jazz, which I’ll be referring to throughout the post as Daedalus because gosh, the title is a mouthful lol.
Daedalus is released this year with a price of $39.99. I’ve seen its VNDB page and is surprised to know that the length of the game is only about 2-10 hours long. On How Long to Beat website, it is 6 ½ hours — granted that this is from 1 user alone. I thought the full game would be pretty long especially with that price. But now, I’m not sure if it’s worth it?
Then again, this is just the demo so let’s dive in. 😁
It is already the 20th century. Yuuri is enjoying her date with her boyfriend. As she steps on wet soil, something grabs her and take her to the time of the Hittite Empire. Later, she learns that she is transported there to be a living sacrifice by the Queen. Fortunately for her, Prince Kail saves her and take her as his concubine. Caught between political intrigues and wars, how could Yuuri go back to modern Japan? Also, what will happen to her relationship with Prince Kail when the two of them are slowly developing strong feelings for each other?
From the present Anatolia (Turkey), let us go back to the ancient time as the story’s heroine, Yuri is transported from 20th century Japan to Anatolia. We are introduced to the era where the rulers in the Middle East are the Hittites. There is also Egypt ruled (at the start of the story) by Tutankhamen. Chie Shinohara did a good job in making a connection of history and fiction.
Meet our heroine, Komomo. She’s a level 0 hero and tries to fight the level 2000 Demon Lord. This Demon Lord is not your usual one. he doesn’t give orders to his soldiers, bored in his high seat, drinking wine and being fanned by girls and loves to watch the television under the kotatsu. That’s not all, his favorite would be having a progress in his relationship with Komomo.
