The Danganronpa franchise has somewhat quietly birthed some of the better murder-mystery games out there since its inception in 2010. Of course, fans of the series will know that it's not just limited to the games, but anime series and several light novels too. The games generally follow a group of kids who are forced to kill each other in a killing game. After a murder, they meet in a class trial where they determine details about the kill, while the whole time the killer tries to sway them in the wrong direction. It's a great concept and one that’s only gotten more popular as time has passed, which means there are more options than ever for gamers who like this concept. Below, we put together a list of the best games like Danganronpa for you to try out.
