Following the consensus of the rest of the reviews here:
Saikoroshi is worthwhile and presents a scenario that modifies some fundamental facts about the setting and does cool thematic things with that.
Hirukowashi feels like a breather episode in a 90s anime like Tenchi Muyo or something.
Batsukoishi is a distillate of everything about the slice of life scenes in these games that made me wanna pull my own eyes out. I closed the program once I realized that making a conscious decision to hit eject early would be more satisfying than seeing wherever this shit was going.

lo único que vale la pena es la historia de Rika la cual se me hizo bastante interesante y un mejor final para Higurashi, mejor comparado a lo que hubo en el question arc (además de que creo que tiene alguna conexión con Umineko)
sobre los dos arcos extras pues no te esperes algo de la calidad de los arcos de consolas, estos dos arcos fue como si le dijeran a un random que hace fanfics "oye, escríbeme dos mini historias que no tenga nada que ver con higurashi, pero que tenga fanservice que nosotros solo le pondremos por encima los sprites para meterlos en Rei, que el fanservice siempre vende". al menos la historia de Rena fue más o menos éntrete, pero la de Keishi terminé dropeandolo... y tal vez si eres de esos que se ofenden por el lolicon entonces no te recomiendo leerlo, ya que podrías considerar el humor como "apología a ser "pedro", aunque fue agradable a la vista ver esas CG (?

✔️ Tested on Steam Deck, it works fine (03/01/2024). 'R2' button to advance text and touchscreen for starting menu.
Saikoroshi is the only chapter worth reading from this title, the rest are just cringe fanservice.

Achei que trouxe temas interessantes em relação a obra original, e também gostei da maneira que trabalharam eles. Mas acho que não vai muito além disso.
El puntaje es solo por Saikoroshi, no tengo ganas de leer el resto
wow this is bad
The episode 9 epilogue is a pointless "eat a kitten or your whole family dies" false dilemma that means absolutely nothing outside of some relationship development between rika and someone who had like 10 lines in the original. The premise is dumb and it doesn't do anything interesting with it.
It's also packaged with two "comedy" chapters, and by comedy i mean adult characters wanting to bang preteens. I tapped out when I realized that was all it was gonna be.
You can skip this.

rika cannot catch a break.
saikoroshi was surprisingly good! the epilogue to higurashi you didn't know you wanted, even though it trampled on matsuribayashi's perfect ending just a bit.
hirukowashi was ok. i have nothing to really say about it, although i guess i have to play higurashi daybreak now.
batsukoishi? ew, gross, vile, disgusting. actual affront to humanity.
ratings: saikoroshi 9/10, hirukowashi 7/10, batsukoishi 1/10

Saikoroshi was okay, i was not that interested in the story because i already thought the series to be finished, but yeah it's okay.
Hirukowashi was fun, nothing really to say.
Batsukoishi: WHAT THE HELL????? DELETE THIS SHIT!

this rating is solely for saikoroshi. i cant be bothered to read the second one and the third one seems borderline unreadable
Would have been a really great farewell for the game if ryuukishi had took the age of their characters into account
Saikoroshi is a 9/10 for me.
i heard the rest of the side stories are really bad so i haven't bothered with them and never will.
