*I've read that some of them are available in Story Jar, which is an app similar to Love 365 but not pay to play. They are: Pirates, Guilty Alice, Mononoke Kiss, Ninja Assassin, Lost Alice, Lost Island and Niflheim. The rest might be added eventually to Story Jar too, but we don't know for sure.
In case anyone is confused, an app shutting down means that the game won't be available anymore. You won't be able to read the stories, or look at your CGs, or anything. It's all gone forever. Even if you keep it installed in your phone.
So if there is stuff you want to save from any of these, I'd recommend starting asap.
When this happened with ggparty, I used emulators and screen recorders to save the stories. I recommend MEmu and bandicam, they're both easy to use and free (bandicam is a paid program, and the free version comes with a watermark, but it shouldn't be too annoying unless they've changed it).

Date: 2020-02-03 12:36 (UTC)I only played one route from Scarlet Fate but I liked it a lot and was planning to play the rest.
Can you recommend a tutorial for how to save?
no subject
Date: 2020-02-03 16:09 (UTC)I haven't seen any tutorials, I guess I could write one myself? but it's not something too complicated. You just have to record the screen while you read a route like you usually would do. I mentioned using an emulator because that's what I used in the past, but you can do that on your phone if it has a screen recorder (which more modern smarphones seem to have?). There are apps for this too, but when I tried those in the past they were bad and/or didn't work unless your device is rooted. If you're like me and don't know much about that kind of stuff, and your phone doesn't include that feature already, using an android emulator on your computer is way easier.
Let me know if this is too confusing and I'll try to write a proper tutorial asap ;;

Date: 2020-02-03 20:48 (UTC)Thank you for the heads-up on this. It makes me very sad, Demon's Bond is an excellent game but very poorly suited for the freemium model.
