And of course, I'm going to recommend
Minotaur Hotel from this list.
I've already written a bit about this game, but it's my favorite piece of queer media I've read this year. It is a furry VN, but its appeal is more than that and is more focused on mythology from a modern queer experience. The Greek gods take the form of humans, as well as other human characters taking part since a big part of the story is how these mythicals have to hide in a world where technology is diminishing people's belief and acceptance of magic. It avoids a lot of cliches and has some undertale like elements to it that are very well done.
Structurally, the further you get the less traditional it becomes insofar as being a VN. There's a major chapter where you explore a town and are given a list of places you can visit. There are multiple sidequests you can complete, but you have to deduce where to go and what to do based on the hints the locations give while dealing with a limited timeframe. There's also the management section that expands the more staff you have, giving you the ability to explore outside the labyrinth and pick up pieces of lore.
Just... I adore this game. It's surprised me in ways few pieces of media ever do. I'm truly thankful
the journey that started here led me to experiencing Minotaur Hotel and its ability to transcend whatever categories may be placed upon it.
