How to Unlock Side Stories in Doki Doki Literature Club (DDLC) Plus
To unlock the 8 DDLC Plus Side Stories, players need to write poems to all main characters in the Club but you need to skip Monika. Since the events in the side stories happen before the main campaign, you have to keep your attention on the others like Sayori, Natsuki etc. After writing poems for them, you have to check the stories out in the right chronological order as shown below:
- Trust
- Understanding
- Respect
- Balance
- Reflection
- Self love
- Equals
By watching these, you will understand the story better and then the main events will be clearer. You will get more information about how the club was formed. Note that players will not have any type of gameplay options during this to change the events or any choices to pick.
You will be able to dive deeper into the events that happen via the cutscenes and other narration that you get. And once you are done with Part 1, you can unlock the Part 2 of side stories and continue from there. Going from Trust to Equals, and you will finish up all the side stories in Doki Doki Literature Club Plus.
That’s all there is to know about the story expansion and how to watch them in the correct order. If you’d like to do 100% completion and get all the trophies, check out our DDLC Achievements guide right here.
