Doki Doki Literature Club is one of those games that seems innocent and normal on the surface. After all, there are a ton of visual novel games and date sims where you meet pretty girls. However, Doki Doki Literature Club is a little different. Those who have played it are very aware that this game is in fact a psychological horror game.
Specifically, it explores the horrors of high school romance. When the developers tag the game with things like “self-harm”, “suicide” and “sexually suggestive themes”, you know you’re in for quite a ride. It is also one of the most critically acclaimed horror games since its release.
Coming June 30th
Doki Doki Literature Club follows the main character as he reluctantly joins a literature club in an attempt to swoon the girls in it. Sayori, Natsuki, Yuri, and Monika all await your attempts at charming them. Of course, if you make any mistakes along the way, you can just erase them, in search of the perfect ending.
