Free, open-source visual novel/Galgame resource & archive: downloads for games and translation patches, community-maintained, no barriers, no speed limits.

Introduction

šŸ‘‹ Hi, welcome to Shionlib!

As you can see, this is a resource site for visual novels/Galgame. We provide downloads for game releases and translation patches—free, barrier-free, and without speed limits.

Shionlib is free and open source. You can find our source code on our GitHub repository. If you have questions or suggestions, feel free to open an Issue or a Pull Request.

Principles & Site Definition

Shionlib will always be free and open source; we do not charge users any fees. All resources on Shionlib are uploaded by users, and we cannot guarantee their completeness or safety. If you’d like to upload game resources, please read the guide: Upload Game Files.

If there are lawful purchase channels in your country/region, you can find store or official website links under Related Links on a game’s page. If something is missing, you can add it via the Edit function.

As mentioned above, in many countries and regions there is often a lack of compliant channels for purchasing legitimate visual novels/Galgame. Many excellent developers have also disappeared for various reasons, and their works can be hard to find across the internet.

Therefore, one of the original aims of Shionlib is to build a complete, curated archive of visual novels/Galgame across all eras, while giving more people the chance to experience this wonderful art form.

If you are able to, we highly recommend purchasing official copies to support the works and creators you love, so that the culture we care about can continue.
