Otome games are video games targeted towards women, where a female protagonist can romance male love interests as a major part of the game.
Why you might recognize this community
I've been posting over at !otomegames (at kbin.social), even advertising it here, until someone pointed out they couldn't see any posts unless they went to https://kbin.run/m/otomegames@kbin.social. I checked and kbin.social has been down for a long while. I deleted the advertisement, made a community on kbin.run (which has been steadily running ever since I joined it about a year ago, and others have let me know they can see my posts), and now here I am advertising the kbin.run version!
alternate link. For any other Kbin/Mbin users browsing that want to advertise a community, the link I used here is /c/otomegames@kbin.run, not /m/otomegames@kbin.run.

Otome games are, primarily, visual novels with a female protagonist or are otherwise meant for female consumption (boys love, etc)
