I haven’t played it (yet, it’s in my extensive backlog) and I don’t think it’s exactly the same, but have you checked out Slay the Princess?

Doki Doki Literature Club is the GOAT. Can any VN gamers recommend something similar? Every other VN game I’ve tried had me wishing it was just a book and quitting before the end.

It’s definitely not exactly DDLC, but it’s so good and unique I put it in the same 'greatest VNs of all time category. Slay the Princess is a masterpiece, and I’d urge you to bump it up on your backlog!

I haven’t gotten started on it yet, but “You and Me and Her” seems to be a common recommendation for fans of DDLC.

DDLC mods are pretty good too.
Blue skies is the best one IMO

Not necessarily a VN, but you might like Pony Island if you liked Doki Doki.
Digital: A Love Story is also an experience that was really powerful for me.
