After reaching 100% myself, I decided to create this guide to help other players who also want to achieve it without breaking their heads too much or without using so much time.

There will be Spoilers, for that reason, I recommend playing the game first, and then try to get the things you are missing. The game doesn't end until you see the credits.

The game is divided into 4 acts. The first act, is before Sayori's death. The second act, is before Yuri's death. The third act is when you are with Monika. The fourth act, is after deleting Monika.

To get everything, I'm afraid you will need to restart the game many, many times, and it could take you several hours. But I trust that with my guide, it may take you less time than me.

Achievements

• Good feature
  
  On the desktop of the virtual machine, draw several squares of different sizes until the achievement pops up.
  
  
• Error
  
  Change the desktop background.
  
  
• Buy my mixtape
  
  Stay at the desktop of the virtual machine, listening to music, for at least 20 minutes.
  
  
• No
  
  Try to quit the game. When it asks you if you want to quit, click on the "no" button.
  
  
• Doki Doki Poetry Slam
  
  In the poem mini-game, stay long enough for the music to repeat.
  
  
• Any% WR attempts
  
  Write a poem in less than 20 seconds. Choose any word as fast as you can.
  
  
• Perfect! Sayori
  
  In the poem mini-game, choose 20 words that correspond to Sayori.
  Personal appreciation: For me it was quicker to use my memory and try it out, than to use a list of words. But it's up to each one.
  
  
• Perfect! Natsuki
  
  In the poem mini-game, choose 20 words that correspond to Natsuki.
  
  
• Perfect! Yuri
  
  In the poem mini-game, choose 20 words that correspond to Yuri.
  
  
• Perfect! Monika
  
  At the beginning of Act 3, write a poem for Monika. No matter what you choose.
  
  
• Start a New Game
  
  After Sayori's death, start a new game.
  
  
• Ruin everything
  
  Delete Monika for the first time. To delete her, exit the game. Go to the files, and enter where it says "characters". Now, delete the monika.chr file and then restart the game.
  
  
• 2-Stocked
  
  Delete Monika for the second time.
  
  
• Dan says hi
  
  Get the "good" end. To get to it, you must get all the images of the girls in the base game. That is, the game where you write poems to them. For example: you write your 3 poems to Sayori, you get her CG and her story, you confess to get the last one, and then you start a new game. Now you do the same with Natsuki and Yuri. All this must be done in the first act, before Sayori's death. Once you've done that with all of them, continue the game normally and after deleting Monika, you should unlock that ending along with the rest. As a final note, the images you have obtained will appear colored in the credits. If any of them are grayed out, besides you won't get that ending, it will help you to see which one you missed.
  
  
• Thank you
  
  Simply by playing the game, you will get this achievement.
  
  
• She will never be real
  
  In Act 3, when you are with Monika, you must listen to at least 15 of her monologues.
  
  
• Stonks
  
  Look at Paula's project plan. To do this, wait or change the time on your computer to 02:40 (I think it may be afternoon or early morning). Then go to files/internal/2/2/1 and look at the project plan. It should give you the achievement.
  
  
• Friendship and Literature
  
  Read all the side stories.
  
  
• Breakthrough
  
  Reach 100% in data collection. Following my guide, we will get there.

Wallpapers

Most of the wallpapers are obtained by completing the acts of the game, and the side stories, but I will note those that are obtained in a special way.

• Background 1
  
  Write a poem in less than 20 seconds.
  
  
• Background 2
  
  In the poem mini-game, look for the word "kawaii" and select it.

Poems...

Most of the poems are obtained by advancing in the game, and in the side stories.

I will write down the ones that are obtained in a special way.

• Special poem by Natsuki
  
  To get this poem, you must write your three poems to Natsuki.
  
  
• Special poem by Yuri
  
  To get this poem, you must write your three poems to Yuri.
  
  
• Special message from Dan
  
  Make it to the "good" end. In the achievements section, I explain how to get it.
  
  
• Sayori's past poem
  
  Get all of Sayori's poems.
  
  
• Poem from Natsuki's past.
  
  Get all of Natsuki's poems.
  
  
• Poem from Yuri's past.
  
  Get all of Yuri's poems.
  
  
• Poem from the past by Monika
  
  Get all of Monika's poems.

CGs

All illustrations are obtained as you progress through the game.

These include:

• Write a poem to each girl.
  
• Write two in a row to one of them.
  
• Choose to help Yuri.
  
• Choose to help Natsuki.
  
• Confess to Sayori.
  
• Reach act 3 where you are with Monika.
  
• Complete all the side stories.

Secrets

This can become the most tedious part. It is the secrets. The secrets are special poems that appear in act 2. 3 special poems are chosen at the beginning, and they are random. For that reason, it can take a long time to get them. Or very little. Depending on how lucky you are. They have released a patch, making the poems at the beginning, different each time, which makes it easier. F here's to all of us who did it before the patch. Anyway, once you get the third special poem, before Yuri's death, you can restart the virtual machine by pressing "reset.sh" to continue searching for poems until you complete them all.

There is one last secret, which is not a poem, and it is called "ghost menu". In act 2, once you have advanced a bit, exit the game and enter it many times. There is a 1/64 chance that this strange menu will appear. Keep trying until you get it. Make sure the text with the white background, the warning, changes. Signal that you are in the right place. Once it changes, don't worry if it says the previous message again. The idea is that, from time to time, it will say something different from what it normally says. When you get that strange menu, click anywhere, and it should close by itself. You've got that last secret.

Backgrounds

There is not much science here. You'll get the backgrounds as you progress through the main story and side stories.

However, there is a little secret. There is an extra song, and it will help you reach 100%.

When you have unlocked the song Candy Hearts, put it in the playlist, and listen to it on loop. In a few minutes it should change, and you should have an extra song.

Breakthrough

Once you get to 100%, there is something you need to do. Go to the side stories tab, scroll down, and run at least once, TEST VM.

You will have earned the achievement.

Test MV

In this section I will put the decoded message, in spoiler, in case someone doesn't want to take the trouble to translate it.

I haven't finished it yet, so I'll leave it blank at the moment.

After analyzing it, I came to the conclusion that there is no way to put it together. I can't find any logic in it. Possibly there are sentences missing on purpose. It is also possible that they belong to several texts.

Instead of putting together a whole text from the sentences, it might be better to get something out of it.

The sentences specifically discuss a scientific project with religious overtones: the Libitina Project.

Within the project, the Third Eye and its physical characteristics, symptoms, and peculiarities are mentioned. Different studies are conducted to better understand the functioning of the Third Eye and how to adjust the emotional responses of the subjects.

A request is also made for medications and instruments needed to continue the study. The characteristics of some patients are mentioned, and ways to reduce the expenditure of resources and nutrients, such as performing amputations, are discussed. The different wards of the project and their functions, such as nursing and reproduction, are discussed. They seem to be looking to get as many Third Eye children as efficiently as possible and of the best quality.

The ultimate goal of the project seems to be to reach the Nexus, a kind of ascension that is achieved thanks to the Third Eye. The Nexus appears to be an immaterial place that can be reached by dying and freeing oneself from the “material self,” presumably the body. There is also mention of two guardian angels, angels with human skin who will walk the path to salvation and whom they will follow.

Well, that's a little summary I put together. I will, however, leave the original 56 sentences of the test MV for anyone who wants to read them:

"Is the increased potency from proximity to others a temporary effect, or does it have a lasting impact on the strength of their Third Eye?",
"Opening the Third Eye creates a deep-brain channel which causes sentient characteristics such as consciousness and free thought to","may actually produce tiny, but detectable, physical distortions in the area surrounding them. We might consider",

Conclusion

If you have made it this far, congratulations. I hope my guide has helped you to reach the longed 100% in DDLC+. You can leave a comment if you liked it, or not. If there is something you think is wrong, or something that can be improved, something you think should be added, leave me a comment and we'll see.

For now, thanks. And see you later.
