I'm completely new to the genre so I don't know where to start. If they're on Steam, that's good but not necessary. I enjoy games I can relax into from time to time and a virtual novel type of game seems like it might do the trick.

As for Dating sims. Well I've watched anime in original Japanese languages and over the years I come across one from time to time that likes to make fun of dating sim and frankly it's got me curious just to play one so I know what hell they're actually making fun of ^_^. I'd probably recommend the site (The Visual Novel Database) to get a huge listing (and even by popular ranking as well) of visual novels.

Visual Novels and Eroge Review. And ever since then, Tooru was blaming himself that he was worthless as a teacher. A fun side-scroller game that makes this.

Personal visual novels that I recommend (having played them myself) are: Clannad, Tomoyo After, Ever17, Fate/Stay Night, G-senjou no Maou, Katawa Shoujo, Narcissu (1&2), Rewrite, Steins;Gate, Tsukihime (if you enjoy the Type-Moon series and can stomach the lack of quality visuals in exchange for excellent plot), Muv-Luv, and then my favorite, Muv-Luv Alternative (the sequel which is ten times better than its predecessor, but you require the first to understand). Honestly though, I enjoy visual novels much more than anime/manga for the simple fact you become more emotionally invested with the characters themselves (since you're usually seeing the story play out from the eyes of a protagonist; you get their thought-process and all that jazz).

Anyways, have fun! I'd actually say that Fading Hearts *is* a pretty good game to start getting familiar with the genre. While the storyline is branched enough, the choices you make are more obvious than in most VNs, which a new player should find welcome. The other beginner-friendly VN you may want to try out is “Dysfunctional Systems: Learning to Manage Chaos”. It is very short with only two different endings (though different means to reach either), but it will give you a good impression of how VNs play like without bombarding you with too many choices.

Of other VNs avaliable on Steam, I can fully recommend Hanako's “Magical Diary”, if you don't mind playing 'otome' game (i.e. A game with female protagonist). It is more complex, but also provides more enjoyable experience (Hanako’s writing it top-notch ) and bigger variety of choices. It is also probably my favorite VN overall. And finally, there are no true Date Sim games on Steam that I am aware of, and I haven’t played them much overall.

But outside Steam, I can recommend “Heartache 101 - Sour into Sweet” which is free to download and play – just Google it. Ever17 and Steins;Gate are both fantastic.

(both are also some of the only games to ever make me cry:'( ) 999 on the DS is also a great game and the sequel, Virtue's Last Reward, for the PSVita is good as well. Only play that after 999 though. The Phoenix Wright series (again DS, with a 3DS compilation of the first three games in the works) is also fantastic but that's more of a puzzle/thinking game. It does involve a lot of reading like other VNs though.

And if you don't have a DS there's always emulators. Phoenix Wright can be played using only buttons even though the game does not explicitly say so and 999 only requires some tapping for the exploration bits that can be done just as easily by clicking the mouse.

I played Virtue's Last Reward before playing 999 and I enjoyed it. It worked decently as a stand-alone story.
