* The upcoming ''VisualNovel/ButILoveYou'' is an AffectionateParody and DeconstructorFleet for the genre. The main character, who can be either a boy or a girl, finds themself stranded in a mysterious town when their car breaks down. The player encounters a number of girls, from the childish, passionate Ryanne to the shy, demure Alison, who all try to help them in different ways and can be flirted with. Eventually, though, the girls begin to act clingy, giving off signs of being unhinged, and the player must make a choice: either ignore the warning signs to keep courting the girls or try to escape from the town, which is afflicted with an as-yet unknown curse by a mysterious BigBad. Among its MultipleEndings the player may either successfully complete a romance with one or more of the ladies, escape or be killed.
* ''VisualNovel/HigurashiWhenTheyCry'' initially seems as though it'll be one of these, what with the main character, Keiichi, being in a Games Club consisting of only four girls and himself (later adding two more girls, Shion Sonozaki and [[spoiler:Hanyuu]]), and the first parts of each arc focuses on their shenanigans. Soon, though, it's revealed that this series is about [[ReligiousHorror something]] [[PsychologicalHorror else]] [[MindScrew entirely]]. [[spoiler:Not to mention that in the second half of the series the position of main character shifts to Rika instead of Keiichi.]] It's also worth noting that only Mion and possibly Rena are actually hinted to be in love with Keiichi in the series proper, since Shion is in love with someone else, [[TokenMiniMoe Satoko and Rika]] are too young, and [[spoiler:Hanyuu is a PhysicalGod who was married and had a daughter when she was still human]]. In the end, [[spoiler:none of the girls end up with Keiichi, since the series is ultimately not about romance but ThePowerOfFriendship]].
* ''VisualNovel/KamigamiNoAsobi'' features a harem of [[HotGod gods]] - [[Myth/ClassicalMythology Apollon, Hades]], [[Myth/JapaneseMythology Susano'o(a.k.a. Takeru), Tsukuyomi (a.k.a. Tsukito)]], [[Myth/NorseMythology Loki, and Balder]].
* ''VisualNovel/MuvLuv''.
* ''VisualNovel/{{Tsukihime}}''. Five girls with their own routes plus one without, having been DemotedToExtra. Most of them are quite violent about it too; Akiha flatly hates Ciel (who hates her back) and Arcueid (who doesn't seem to know what hate is) and ''those'' two have a '[[WordOfGod weird friendship]]' that occasionally includes trying to kill each other. Akira is added in the first fandisc, Kagetsu Tohya seems to add Len considering [[spoiler:she expresses a preference for having sex with him when making a contract]] and implies most of his classmates are attracted. VideoGame/MeltyBlood adds Sion.
** Do note that this only applies to the extended Tsukihime-verse in the Nasuverse, where Shiki is actually saddled with all the girls in an UnwantedHarem. In the actual visual novel there is no harem ending (aside of Ciel's good ending, which teases a ThreesomeSubtext with Arcueid as the third prong).
* Creator/KeyVisualArts' ''VisualNovel/{{AIR}}'', ''VisualNovel/{{Kanon}}'', and ''VisualNovel/{{Clannad}}'' feature an ordinary (or not so ordinary) high school student who attracts girls of every {{moe}} and general description type into a long-running harem.
** ''VisualNovel/LittleBusters'' is interesting in that it's both more and less of a harem than the others -- more because [[spoiler:all of the routes happen canonically as different timelines, meaning that all of the girls fall for him within the same reality, rather than in alternate universes as with most Key games where often only one or two girls ever like the protagonist at the same time]] and because the first ending explicitly [[NoRomanticResolution leaves open the question of who he ends up with]], but also less because the anime removes all Riki/girl romance except implications that Kurugaya and Rin might like him, leaving only non-haremette Suginami explicitly, and unrequitedly, in love with him.
* ''VisualNovel/MyHaremHeavenIsYandereHell'' focuses on Yuuya and his three ChildhoodFriends. At first, he and his friends are trying to help save their club, but once he starts getting close to one of them, everything takes a [[{{Yandere}} dark turn]].
* ''VisualNovel/YandereILoveYouSoIWantToKillYou'' is centered in a high school with Subaru and three attractive choices in women. Although, like the previous entry, the word "{{Yandere}}" should be noted.
* ''VisualNovel/PurinoParty'' gives the player his own personal harem. He arrives at his new private school and gets to stay at a house full of girls with unique quirks.
* DatingSim ''VisualNovel/TokimekiMemorial'', which actually revolves around building stats and managing dates on multiple girls at times to get one of [[LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters loads and loads of girls]] without angering the rest and ruin your game.
* ''VisualNovel/SevenHottiesAllMyHusbands'' features a strange situation where the protagonist has become part of a polygamy with seven men.
* ''VisualNovel/HaremProtagonist'' is [[AffectionateParody a particularly silly and self-aware take on the genre]]. For starters, the protagonist can hear and interact with the game's narrator, who is disappointed that our hero is not some suave high-school Casanova but an ordinary schlub.
* ''VisualNovel/ExtracurricularActivities'' is a Westernized take where cute schoolgirls are replaced by muscular anthropomorphic men, complete with the ChildhoodFriend, TheQuietOne, and more.
* The ''VisualNovel/ShallWeDate'' franchise is a ReverseHarem series - every single game has a female protagonist and the many men who are in love with her.
* ''VisualNovel/EnchantedInTheMoonlight'' is another ReverseHarem - the protagonist is being protected by five ayakashi, and will have to bear one of them a child in exchange for continued protection.
* In ''VisualNovel/StarrySky'', the heroine is the only girl at an [[OneGenderSchool all-boys school]], and starts being courted by twelve young men (although there are only three per game).
* In ''VisualNovel/DiabolikLovers'', the heroine is sent to live in a mysterious mansion, and is courted by six vampire brothers.
* In ''Harem Island ~Otoko'', the hero works part time at a major theme park situated on a deserted island. Among his co-workers happen to be six lovely women who cosplay as various characters (it's a fantasy-themed park). Naturally, he begins courting all the women and begins his own personal harem at the park.
* ''VisualNovel/MagicKyunRenaissance'' appears to be taking this route in the anime, with Kohana meeting and forming relationships with the six main male characters.
* In ''Eji Koi'', the heroine attends school alongside Egyptian gods, and is able to start a romance with any one of them.
* In ''VisualNovel/DreamDaddy'', the protagonist is romanced by seven single fathers.
* In ''VisualNovel/SeduceMeOtome'', the heroine allows five incubi to stay with her, and they end up falling in love with her.
* In ''VisualNovel/StarCrossedMyth'', the heroine is romanced by twelve gods of the [[WesternZodiac Zodiac]].
* In ''VisualNovel/UtaNoPrincesama'', Haruka can be romanced by six {{Idol Singer}}s.
