Instead of this, Doki breaks and extends immersion into your Computer. It's not that you stop playing the game when you go into the character files; but rather that the game extends past its own window and into your Windows. In this it gamifies a set of skills that are typically functional and boring.
Is DDLC a computer virus?
The Doki Doki Virus (ドキドキ・ウイルス Doki Doki Uirusu) is a biological computer virus created by the Belief Club President Kai. It is the main topic in Re:Literature Club! The Doki Doki Virus, being a mystery in the first part of the game/fanfiction.
Is DDLC safe?
However, it is listed as Psychological Horror, Visual Novel, Dark, Gore, Violent and Sexual Content. The game page also states that “This game is not suitable for children or those who are easily disturbed”. When you start the game this is re-stated and you are required to confirm you are aged 13 or older.
