Sihai's Legacy

Editorial Has potential

Sihai's Legacy is a boys-love visual novel with strong character writing and charming sprite work that has earned genuine affection from its playerbase. Jorge's route is repeatedly praised as well-written, and players love the soft, expressive art style and the distinct personalities of love interests like Jehu and Shen. However, the game is in active mid-development: the free build stops at day 11 for most routes (with fuller content behind a Patreon paywall), several characters lack routes or Club Lilac gallery scenes entirely, and the developer has faced repeated real-life setbacks—illness, wrist injury, tablet failure, computer replacement—that have stretched update windows and created long gaps between releases. Recent reviews show the developer actively communicating and working toward monthly updates again, but players are still waiting. If you want a finished, polished experience, this isn't ready; if you're willing to follow ongoing development and engage with an active community, the creative work itself is worth the investment.
