Visual novel adaptations are creative works that transform interactive storytelling games, known as visual novels, into other media formats, such as anime, manga, or video games. These adaptations often retain the original narrative and character designs while presenting the story in a more linear format, making it accessible to a broader audience. The process typically involves selecting key plot points and character arcs from the visual novel to create a cohesive storyline. Popular examples include adaptations of titles like Clannad and Steins;Gate, which have gained significant followings due to their engaging narratives and emotional depth.
