Masked warriors, emotional breakdowns, historical heartbreak, and cafe dates between battles? Yeah, Sandaldash Games are doing something a little different. Their visual novels don’t just dabble in romance—they throw it into warzones, political upheaval, and power struggles with men who are just as broken as they are devoted.
If you’re new to this brand or just trying to figure out what to play next, here’s the breakdown of their BL releases all packed with heart, betrayal, and just enough shirtless swordfighting to keep things interesting.
GuiSard
Masked heroes. Weaponized trauma. Mechas and misunderstandings.
This is your entry point into the Guisard series think sentai squad energy but with tangled emotions, enemy betrayal, and a dose of late-night arcade therapy.
A group of young men don masks to fight against Ganglion, a shady organization running twisted body-modification experiments. It starts with a mission. But as the battles stack up, so do the cracks. Trust collapses. Grief turns physical. And before long, these fighters are leaning on each other for more than just backup.
There’s a lot going on: past betrayals, explosive fights, and a soft escape in the form of their home base café “Sandal Dash.” It’s messy in all the ways a BL action drama should be.
Highlights:
Tohru (Red) is your hot-blooded, emotionally chaotic lead with a big heart and fists to match.
Aoki (Blue) is the tired best friend trying to keep everyone from falling apart, while slowly unraveling himself.
Their enemies? Not as evil as they seem… and sometimes a little too close for comfort.
Vibe check: It’s Power Rangers with emotional breakdowns and unexpected sexual tension. No one’s okay, and that's the point.
Guisard Shuffle
The aftermath. The grief. The second round.
Guisard Shuffle drops the team into the "what happens after" phase. The world didn’t magically fix itself after the last fight. Some friends didn’t make it. Others are trying to pretend they’re fine.
It’s quieter, but heavier. The survivors are learning how to move forward… until, of course, they’re dragged back into it.
A new threat shows up, old wounds get opened, and the group has to face the reality that maybe peace was never meant for them. But this time, they’re not just fighting enemies, they’re fighting for each other.
New faces and old flames:
Hisui (Green) joins the crew, a quiet, memory-wiped ex-Ganglion who works in the same café that saw all their breakdowns.
Juliano, a rose, loving narcissist who’s chaotic-good but constantly poking at Yu and Tohru's trauma like it’s a hobby.
Why it hits: It doesn’t just rehash the original—it builds on it. This is the “we survived but we’re not healed” arc, and it pulls no punches.
The Wings of Love Beyond the Thistle Series
Historical BL with war, betrayal, and painful longing.
Set during the Spring and Autumn Warring States period, this trilogy of visual novels from Sandaldash Games swaps masks for royal robes. The drama? Still messy. The romance? Still complicated.
Across three connected titles, Unfinished Cause, Eternal Thoughts and A Dream of Love, you’ll follow the rise, fall, and desperate escape of princes, generals, and assassins who’ve all tied their fates (and bodies) together in a time of political chaos.
Here’s the setup:
Zhao Kou is a gentle prince forced to flee after a coup, protected by Guo Wai, a loyal general he’s loved since childhood.
Their escape turns into a war to reclaim the throne—with a tangled web of affection, jealousy, and obsession between them.
Meanwhile, the scheming Zizhi (Prime Minister and stepchild to Guo Wai) plots from the shadows, not for power—but for Guo Wai’s love.
Each entry adds more:
Unfinished Cause kicks off the betrayal.
Eternal Thoughts brings new characters into the fold and complicates everything with shifting alliances and forbidden longing.
A Dream of Love explores deeper rivalries and secret feelings.
Why play it? Because no one does the “I’d kill for you, I’d die for you, and I still don’t know if you love me back” dynamic like this series. The politics are sharp, the romance is brutal, and the payoff is worth the ache.
