About
Doki Doki Literature Club: The Festival is an expansive mod that reimagines the original story of Doki Doki Literature Club! by focusing on the long-awaited School Festival. Unlike the base game, where the event never actually takes place, in this mod the protagonist and the Literature Club members-Sayori, Natsuki, Yuri and Moniki-prepare for the festival in more depth, with new interactions, dialogues and exclusive events. The player's choices play a crucial role in how the festival unfolds, and can lead to different outcomes, from touching and romantic moments to shocking revelations.
Picking up where the original game went wrong (the end of Act I), this mod fixes its problems and takes you to where you could never go before: The Festival. Join Sayori, Natsuki, Yuri, and Monika in a new adventure spanning an entire week. Read new poems, try all four routes and meet the new member!If you're confused …
