Course of Temptation comes to mind, though no graphics. Bit different scope than DoL so it has more going on in some areas but less possibilities than some others, given that it focuses on college life.
I played some text rpgs in the past but I can't fap if there is no graphics, but thank you!

Its going to be hard to find anything with the amount of complexity and freedom as DoL. The thing is absolutely massive and its practically a miracle that development is still ongoing as it is. I mean everyone in the thread should go to the THIRTY SIX MEGABYTE .html file and open it in notepad just to be in awe of the sheer absurdity at what has been created. The game has been maintained and worked on for years so no project that has not been under development for at least as long will ever come close and most wouldnt even if they were. The scope of the project and how far it has come over the years is absolutely mind boggling.

And yet we still have people that come into discussions mad because its not bigger.

I've always been impressed with how small the game is considering the amount of content. Just amazing.
Because it's all text and a little pixelart, done with HTML. For an HTML file, it's actually pretty massive. Either way, beside some engine overhead with some engines, the most spacious elements of a given project are gonna be visual assets, and DoL doesn't have all that much of those.

Even accounting for all the images the raw text of the HTML file is still larger than the rest of the assets. Also according to google and the Lenovo website of all things 1MB of text is roughly a million characters of plain text. So if the translation is accurate and the "raw text" portion applies to an html file that means the game is roughly 36 million characters.

can't encounter black wolf in forest, i am in deep forest, can't go deeper, any suggestions?
I believe it needs to be hunting you to meet the Black Wolf for the forst time. You might get messages about being hunted while in the forest, and the form of those messages will tell you whether it's the Black Wolf or Eden (either wolf howling, wolf fur in bushes,... or conversely, marks of human hunter presence).
After that, it should be a matter of time before one or the other catches you, as long as you stay in the forest.

found her, it was difficult because of not so random encounters

i escaped from Eden, now it's just bees and plant boys
The wolves don't come this deep if I remember right. You gotta be in shallower forest, up to few steps beyond the lake. Idr if there was a way to differentiate between Eden and Wolf hunting, but it's the same mechanic.

finally found her, it would be easier if no random encounters were present
