Which famous visual novels are on Android?

Published November 11, 2026

Several big visual novels have official English Android versions: Steins;Gate, Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc, The House in Fata Morgana and Muv-Luv Alternative. Others don't. Katawa Shoujo, Fate/stay night and Clannad have no official English Android release, so any APK you find for them is an unofficial port. Those can be outdated, broken or bundled with malware.

Why unofficial ports are a risk

A port is someone else's repackaging of the PC game files. It isn't updated by the developer, it may be based on an old version, and you can't check what else is inside the APK. Malware has been found in re-uploaded copies of popular games.

If a game has no official Android build, the safer options are to play the PC version, or a Switch edition if there is one.

Katawa Shoujo on Android

Katawa Shoujo is free from its developer, Four Leaf Studios, for Windows, Mac and Linux. There is no official Android or iOS version. The Android versions you'll find are community ports.

Because the PC game is a free Ren'Py game, some players run the official PC files through JoiPlay instead. Our Ren'Py-on-Android guide explains how that works and what to watch for.

Fate/stay night and Clannad on Android

Neither has an official English Android version. Fate/stay night REMASTERED is sold on Steam and Switch. Clannad's English release is on Steam, Switch and PS4.
