Visual Novel

Visual novels are interactive stories. They focus mainly on character development and plot rather than action and gameplay mechanics.

Suggest updated description

Text based

Focused on using its text, moreso than its visuals or audio, to tell the bulk of its story/plot. (Still can have great audio and visuals, though!)
