It makes full use of the flexibilities of its medium (to the point where you just couldn't tell it any other way), it invites (and, indeed, requires) you to think for yourself about the answers, and the story is fantastically unique. Most visual novels are intended, ultimately, to either titillate or entertain - Umineko, however, is one of the few I'd regard as a work of genuine genius. It doesn't have quite the same iconic status among the visual novel community as Fate/Stay Night, Clannad or Saya no Uta, so I guess this is more of a personal recommendation than an answer to your question, but I'd also consider Umineko no Naku Koro ni to be a 'must play'. Key may since have produced better works, depending on who you ask (the second half of Little Busters! seems generally regarded as better than the best bits of Clannad), but this was, I think, the point at which they really consolidated their formula. It's one of the first (and best) romance-based visual novels to wholly ditch its heritage as a dating sim and instead focus purely on evoking emotion in the player. Grotesque and depraved as it is, it tells a highly unique, morally-ambiguous and compelling (yet compact) story that has earned it a deserved position as a common starter VN.Ĭlannad, also, is something definitely worth playing - again, a classic. While I'm loath to recommend it to someone new to the medium (you might want to have a think about whether it's really for you before you decide to play it), Saya no Uta is, I think, another 'must play'.

It's probably not strictly the best visual novel out there, and it's not to everyone's tastes, but there's no denying it's an absolute classic. Its relationship with the visual novel medium is probably comparable to what Neon Genesis Evangelion is to anime - while it wasn't the first notable visual novel by a long shot, it was strong and original enough to bring its medium into the public eye, and even to draw the attention of the West. I think I'd regard Fate/Stay Night as the biggest 'must play'.
