    I made the mistake buying this game after it was so hyped on the internet. I usually don't play visual novels, and thought i should give this a chance anyway.
    This is NOT a video game, because most of the time you click through a badly written story, with annoying music in the background. After a 30 minutes i was completly bored by it, and just didnt care anymore.

    If you're a mature gamer (I can't recommend this game to anyone still in high school, considering some of the subject matter that gets explored within) and you're looking for a horror story that doesn't depend on cheap shots or jump scares to entertain, then I'd suggest joining the Doki Doki Literature Club.

    It does not pull it off as effectively as the original PC version for what I think are obvious reasons, but it works well enough. This is a decent way to play Doki Doki Literature Club if it’s your preferred option, and you definitely should play it. As long as you’re okay with some heavy, mature content, anyway. This is more of a horror story than anything else despite its candy-colored appearance. But it is an incredible one, and one that could really only be done in the medium of video games.
