    Higurashi was already mentioned, and there's also Umineko, Ciconia (on-going series, not finished), Rose Guns Days and Higanbana by the same author (the last two are fan-translations).

    Key (who made Planetarian/Harmonia) also made 3 more kinetic novels in the last few years, so far only Loopers has an English version, and only on Switch/PS4 (with a PC version coming... at some point). Tsui no Stella and Lunaria Virtualized Moonchild are also supposed to be released in English this year.

    Fault series (fault milestone 1 and 2, and lightkravte) is a fantasy series with stunning art.

    World End Economica is a kinetic novel with 3 chapters, set on the moon and focused on stock trading and real estate stuff. It has a couple of big infodumps that could be hard to get through if you're not interested in economics though. I loved the first chapter of this one.

    The 9-nine series (4 episodes + bonus episode) is pretty much a linear supernatural mystery, with very few choices, and my personal favourite of the ones mentioned in this post. It's fully voiced and has excellent production quality. This is an eroge, but playing the censored version is fine, as the sex scenes were replaced by rewritten scenes instead of being cut out abruptly. I'm not a fan of sex scenes, but a particular scene in episode 2 was hilarious.
