Daitoshokan no Hitsujikai Walkthrough (August / Fan-translation)

Sona-Nyl of the Violet Shadows

This is a walkthrough for the English fan-translation of the Daitoshokan no Hitsujikai visual novel by August. Translated by Library Shepherd, leaked through a Reddit post here.

This entire English guide is based upon the original Japanese walkthrough by Seiya-Saiga. So all credits to them. There are many choices in this lengthy game so this should help you find your way to unlock the various heroine routes.

And there’s plenty of heroines in Daitoshokan no Hitsujikai for you to enjoy. To be exact, there are 5 main heroines (Tsugumi, Tamamo, Senri, Kana, Nagi). From which 4 of them have both a “normal” and a “true” route to unlock as well. Then there are 3 sub-heroines with shorter routes (Maho, Miyu, Sayumi).

You’ll need 9 save slots for this guide. Naturally you’ll also unlock all CGs.

Notes

  • If the font is unreadable, you can try installing this dll font fix by putting in your game’s directory.
  • It’s also recommended to install the “simhei” font file that you can find in the game’s directory (Right click -> Install)
  • It’s possible to revert a few lines in case you’ve made a mistake. Use the log “scene jump” function to do that.
