Write your way into their hearts.

Doki Doki Literature Club Plus is a visual novel about a young man joining his high school’s literature club after a lot of persistence from his friend, Sayori. During your playthrough, you’ll occasionally be asked to select 20 words from a list to craft a poem. Depending on which words you select will get you closer to one of the club’s members: Natsuki, Sayori, or Yuri. So, if you want to woo a certain girl or get the achievement/trophy for writing the perfect poem for them, you need to know which words they prefer.
