The Robotics;Notes games are a series of visual novels that are part of the Science Adventure series. If you’re looking into getting started into these series, then I can definitely recommend snagging these.
You can either obtain ROBOTICS;NOTES DaSH or the sequel, ROBOTICS;NOTES ELITE separately, or you can grab the double pack, which contains both games.
5. Zero Escape: The Nonary Games

Last, but certainly not least, Zero Escape: The Nonary Games is a 2 in 1 package where it contains a remaster of the 999: Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors game, which was originally released on the Nintendo DS, where you play as Junpei who gets trapped in a ship.
And of course, you got Virtue’s Last Reward, which was available on PS Vita, where you follow Sigma after he is abducted and forced along with eight other individuals to play the Nonary Game, which is full of life-or-death situations. Both of these games kickstarted the legendary career of Kotaro Uchikoshi’s team, so why not give them a try?
