# Visual Novel
A playbook for visual novels — the branching script, the presentation (text box, characters,
backgrounds), choices, and the quality-of-life systems players expect (save anywhere, backlog,
skip, auto). This is a **compositional** skill: it drives a dialogue engine and a UI layer. It
does not re-teach the dialogue engine or UI nodes; it defines the script model and the player
conveniences that make a VN pleasant to read.
## When to use
- Use when the game is **mostly reading branching text** with character art and backgrounds:
visual novel, dating sim, branching interactive fiction, story-choice game.
- Use when designing a choice/route structure, story flags, or VN conveniences (backlog,
skip, auto-advance, save-anywhere).
