Higurashi When They Cry Hou - Ch.1 Onikakushi
Description
The 58th year of Shouwa, early summer
It’s June, and the summer heat has arrived earlier than it does most years.
By day there are crickets, and by night there are cicadas.
We’re in Hinamizawa, a small village in the countryside.
There are fewer than two thousand people here. But every year, there is an event.
This event is a mysterious death.
(The series has run from 1979 to 1983)
On a certain day in June, someone dies, and someone else goes missing.
The series of deaths is connected to the upheaval surrounding the dam construction project.
A murder case that was covered up is being reenacted.
Is it a conspiracy? A coincidence? Or perhaps a curse?
Someone who was supposed to be there isn’t.
Someone who wasn’t supposed to be there is.
Someone who was alive last night is dead now.
And someone who is here right now isn’t alive.
So, there is no way to avert tragedy. There is no choice but to give up.
But don’t give up.
Only you can stand up to this.

Non interactive classic
The only downsides are that this is a visual novel in the actual sense of the word (that is, not interactive at all) and that this is just the first arc of the novel. But it still stands as a classic due to the way it nails the emotions and immerses the reader with so little effort. The idyllic atmosphere of day to day at small, rural Hinamizawa is extremely well done, and even if the ending isn't fulfilling enough, it successfully leaves you wanting to know more. -1 because I didn't like a specific part that I felt goes too long and where the humor failed to land, other than that is a solid, easy to recommend story even if you already know about it from the adaptations.
