Psychedelica of the Black Butterfly: Common Route


Game: 
Psychedelica of the Black Butterfly
Route: Common Route

This post will contain a simplified walkthrough to ensure you reach the perfect, “real world”, and bad endings in order to collect all of the images.  Please note that I have chosen to not include CG screenshots with my walkthroughs to avoid spoiling the game.

Notes: You must complete the Common Route in order to unlock the others. Afterwords the order is Kahiga, Yamato, Hikage, Monshiro, and Karabusa. You can save yourself a lot of frustration by going in that order. Also, In this visual novel game there is a minigame where your target and shoot butterflies to collect points. These points are then used to unlock additional stories.

Since it takes additional time for me to play through the game and notate each choice, please do not repost this walkthrough without credit. Thanks, and enjoy the game!
