DDLC is a disturbing (good, but disturbing) game that opens as a bright cheerful one. So long as the description explained what the user is in for later on, I think Google shouldn't have done this. I haven't seen the Android version; I played it on PC, but as it is basically a "visual novel" I doubt there was very much difference between them.

I downloaded the Android version yesterday to see what everyone is on about. It's absolutely stuffed with trigger warnings. I had to click through about 4 screens saying that yes, I'm definitely ok with seeing disturbing content, and there's even a setting that will warn you before each individual disturbing screen.

I played 30 minutes and realized my personal trigger is sickeningly "cute" anime girls, and there's no warnings for that. Maybe I'll keep going and try to treat it as an artistic experience but I'm definitely not enjoying it so far and I'm just in the introduction.

Oh dude, this game is going to rock your world. I'm like giddy for you experiencing this for the first time with no spoilers.

I was like "meh" too at first ("what are people TALKING about?") and, then, it just gets incredible.

		I played it years ago and sorry, it didn't rock my world even for 5 minutes. It's a very naive story with a jump-scare sort of ending that totally didn't work for me, because it was well expected. The story felt very underwhelming comparing to most books, movies or games even. IMHO a complete waste of time.

that's valuable info.

wikipedia actually makes the game sounds interesting unlike a typical dating sim.

WARNING possible spoilers, don't read if you plan to play, but just know it's not just a dating sim.

> while it appears to be a light-hearted dating simulator, it is a metafictional psychological horror game that extensively breaks the fourth wall.

> Reviewers pointed out that the game's horror was built on the destruction of a sense of control over what happens in the game and the feeling of helplessness that stems from the distortions in the game's world

		I played this game recently and you have to click through several screens telling you that it's disturbing to open and play it

		It's worth the experience to play that game once. And I guess it's not worth porting games for adults to walled gardens. Note that i said games for adults, not adult content. If you're expecting porn, move along.

		It's totally free, give it a try if you're interested! It's also been ported to a variety of platforms unofficially (Wii and 3DS ottomh)
