It's not all the time I would play a graphic novel game, but Doki Doki Literature Club is one of the best ones out there. You may look at this as any dating simulator game, but this is much more than just that. This is one of the scariest horror games I have played. That would happen during the end of the first act and the entire second act. Throughout of that, we would see glitches and some terrifying deaths, which I will not spoil specifically. Outside of the horror element, both the story and the gameplay structure well to the happy ending with the creator saying to the players that it doesn't matter on which girl you like the most. It's about friendship and getting to know all these girls, which would affect the characters for their personalities. And to top it all off, one of the most extraordinary graphics for a video game. Not only the CGs are impressive and match the scenes for the game, but the presentation would mess with the players' minds with all these glitches. I definitely recommend this game for both anime fans and video game fans (since the creator has given a letter to gamers out there right the end of the secret ending). However, I highly recommend to prepare yourself for it. And if you're horror experienced, I think you're truly going to find this a one extraordinary video game. Keep in mind I have played this game on Doki Doki Literature Club Plus. So after I completed the main game, I have played the side stories. While it may not have the references from the game itself, it may have a nice origin story how the club started in the first place and has heartwarming morals. As for the game itself, this is the graphic novel game that's not only extraordinary, but also a thrill ride. Happy Valentine's Day.
