Unlike the original 2017 release, Plus! is a premium game. It received generally positive reviews, with praise for its side stories and gameplay on consoles, but some criticism for its lack of changes. A macOS version of the game was later released on August 12, 2021. The game also inspired various internet memes and achieved a large online following.Īn expanded version of the game, Doki Doki Literature Club Plus!, was released for the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S on June 30, 2021. Upon its release, Doki Doki Literature Club! received positive critical attention for its successful use of horror elements and unconventional nature within the visual novel genre. According to Salvato, the inspiration for the game came from his mixed feelings toward anime and a fascination for surreal and unsettling experiences. The game was developed in an estimated two-year period by a team led by Dan Salvato, previously known for his modding work as part of Project M. Although the game initially appears to be a lighthearted dating simulator, it is in fact a metafictional psychological horror game that extensively breaks the fourth wall. Doki Doki Literature Club! features a non-traditional plot structure with multiple endings and unlockable cutscenes with each of the main characters. The story is told from the perspective of a high school student who reluctantly joins the school's literature club on the insistence of his childhood best friend, and is given the option to romantically pursue three of its four female members. The game was initially distributed through itch.io, and later became available on Steam.
