KineticNovel (キネティックノベル? Kinetikku Noberu) is a brand of the Japanese software publishing company VisualArt's. The productions of the KineticNovel label are unlike other visual novels in that no choices are given to the player. They have only one possible outcome. The player can choose when to go to the next dialogue screen or else put the game on autoplay and just sit back and enjoy, analogous to listening to a CD or watching a DVD movie. The majority of KineticNovel's products contain adult material of a sexual nature, though all-ages products are produced as well, such as Key's Planetarian: The Reverie of a Little Planet.
The company gets most of its sales via offering its products for download over the Internet. However, there are instances where kinetic novels will be ported to consumer consoles, as with what occurred with Planetarian when it was ported to the PlayStation 2 by Prototype. After over three years since the last kinetic novel was produced in April 2006, the VisualArt's brand Issue produced a new kinetic novel, Meitantei Shikkaku na Kanojo, on August 28, 2009.
