The original game blew my 13 year old mind and even several years later it remains one of my favourite experiences ever..... I LOVE THE DOKI'S!!!!!! THANK U TEAM SALVATO!!
Doki Doki Literature Club Plus! is a very good novel game well written with some nice characters. I had a very good time playing it! Great soundtrack and designs too, I recommend it. 💗
A wonderful psychological horror game. Every character is perfect, the writing is amazing, the soundtrack is excellent, and the story is great too. I really loved Doki-Doki Literature Club and now that I've 100%ed the game I feel like that was all that was left for me to do. This game also has a fantastic community and I really liked Sayori's speech at the end of the Good Ending. I don't know what it was about it but just seeing the characters wanting me to come back made them feel almost human to me but like not in a weird way. I really loved playing Doki-Doki Literature Club. Definitely one of my all time favorite games. Goodbye Literature Club.
This is the best game ever and it has so much lore in it and like it's so perfect in every way nothing can make me hate you DDLC+
esse maldito jogo acabou com meu psicologico
this is the best game ever made, i can not stress enough how much i love this game. i have never played a game this good, this is a masterpiece, this is a work of art. this game should be in museums across the globe, i should be able to buy a copy of this game at a gamestop. this game is so peak it makes me shiver. how does one come up with and make such a masterpiece? when i first played this game, i cried as soon as i saw the title screen. the sheer quality of it all, the textures look amazing. this game is incredible. i am shaking and crying as i type this. this is the magnum opus of team salvato. team salvato created the best game ever and the fact that it is a mere £10.49 during steam sales is simply astonishing. once again, this game is so crazy it will blow your mind. buy it and play it. this is the only game you will ever need, ever. please play it.
грустно, что моника не может вылезти из экрана :<
8 years ago, when I still was a teen, I just watched let's plays, today I 100 procented the game, it's a bit crazy when I think about it. Legendary game, Legendary classic of VNs, Legendary Sayori.
[h1] [b] The Game that Saved My Life, Remastered: [/b] [/h1] When I first played the original game, I was not in a good mental state. I was broke, hurting from my army life, was being neglected by my family and my friends, and had NO ONE to be there for me... I decided that this game that was free would be my final game I would ever play. It was with a bunch of cute girls, and having only played one VN before it, I was genuinely curious about this style of game as well as just, well, the style was for me. I decided that I would play... Little did I know, that this "cute" game would not only break me mentally, but also, give me the most intense ride I ever experienced til that point. DDLC did not hold back, and I was shocked at how much I saw myself in the game, especially from our favorite Cinnamon Bun, [i] Sayori. [/i] I... I was in awe, and wanted to see it all, unintentionally, I got the GOOD ending first try, as I wanted to see all three paths and I like having everything up to what I assumed was the last act, so I could enjoy my hard work for. Little did I know, that doing the paths of the game not only gave me one of the most heartfelt scenes in gaming, but also one of the most endearing send-offs I ever saw, Each girl had their own issue, and had their own reason you felt like you should be there for them, and support, relationship or not. I will not do a huge deep dive here (as this WILL be long), but I will say Natsuki, Yuri, Sayori, and of course, Monika, all have something that I found relatable...And... I found myself, being healed. Until, the end of ACT ONE. That infamous scene, is NOT a meme for any good reason. We are awful to make it one. That scene, was going to be my same fate... I was on that same path... And.. it broke me.. THEN I wanted to SAVE her.. I wanted to save Sayori.. And Couldn't... I could not save her.. As ACT TWO happened, and my heart shattered even more as Natsuki and Yuri's stories came out...and the stuff hidden that I did not see. Trying to save Natsuki, ended badly, and trying to save Yuri, was even worse... Monika... Just. Monika.... Monika's act, was so serene... I, I was in awe of her, but also so, angry at her. She made my girl end herself and made the other two get deleted... I, I was so angry.. Then, sympathetic to her. She was programed to NEVER have her happy ending, never have her forever after, or even a chance of being "The One"... Does NOT Excuse what she did, but I understand her. Then.. her act ends as it did.. A bittersweet goodbye, to us... SAYORI CAME BACK... and as I said earlier, unintentionally, blind, I got the GOOD ending as I was being THERE FOR them all. And, I was thanked... I was THANKED... this game, nay, this experience, reminded me its okay to not be okay, and to seek help, that being there for others, is good, and sometimes, the clouds will be rainy, but, they come with a rainbow... This premium version of the game also gave us short stories and so much lore that made me realize just how much I do have in common with these four, and, how much I needed this game to help me see the right way to come back... This game is a masterpiece, and I will never deny it ever. 10/10 experience, 10/10 story, 10/10 side content. 10/10 Monika.... I, I love DDLC. It is my favorite game on PC ever, and I will forever praise it.
I've heard a lot about this game over many years and now I finally get the hype surrounding this. This was one of the most intriguing, unique, ominous, and downright unsettling experiences I've had in a video game in a long time, if not ever. Getting the "good" or "secret" ending was also really wholesome so I like how they added that as well. I loved how the game progressed smoothly and didn't force anything to scare/disturb you, but the main thing I really appreciated was how creative it is by making you think outside the box at certain points and really breaking the fourth wall at times. Overall a really great game that I should have played a lot sooner than I did, but I am very pleased I got to experience this gem
