Meaning of "Doki Doki" in the title?
What is the meaning/translation of "Doki Doki?"

The only reason I'm asking this question is because I've checked this on the Internet out of curiosity today and the results were... unexpected. This really doesn't mean "cute cute" or just "cute," like I innocently assumed when seeing the aesthetics of the game first time?

Thank you for the explanation!
I think the title is quite, if not more than, appropriate given the events and contents of the game.
You are very welcome. I find this game very amusing, and terrifying at the same time, so i had to know myself.
I actually did not know this either, Thank You.
