Hotel Dusk is probably the only one I've enjoyed, but I've wanted to play 999 and it's sequel for awhile. My fiancé really likes the Ace Attorney games, especially the Miles Edgeworth ones.

I'm a big fan, I discovered this genre thanks to the DS/Phoenix Wright games which I loved. The Layton games are quite fun as well. I have Virtue's Last Stand but haven't been able to play it since it's a direct sequel to 999 and spoils the game. I need to check out Hotel Dusk, I know it has a sequel too that's also highly regarded. I also really enjoyed the Trace Memory game(s), they aren't as good as the examples above but it won me over for some reason. Ghost Trick is another great one.

These are all DS examples, I guess it was just a great device for Visual Novels but I'd love to hear other recommendations.

The PC seems to be the number 1 place for Visual Novels, I just recently Katawa Shoujo and Hatoful Boyfriend (the one where you are like the only human remaining and you are dating giant pigeons


also, the Vita got the sequel to 999
