AI: The Somnium Files
The House in Fata Morgana
Raging Loop
The upcoming 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim
Steins;Gate
Chaos;Child
428: Shibuya Scramble
Higurashi When They Cry
Umineko When They Cry
Some of these may not necessarily be like Danganronpa, but they're all highly rated and well regarded by fans of the medium. I'm currently going through Fata Morgana and it's exquisite. Highly recommend it.

How's the English localization? Is it good? I've been meaning to try it out.I'm playing through this right now, and it's super engrossing, atmospheric and often surprisingly candid and relateable.
It just came out last week, it's a Korean VN about a reality tv show that turns into a serious survival game as the stage collapses, trapping the contestants.
As they stumble in the dark for safety, all they can do is helplessly watch rumors spread on social media... until an anonymous poster starts to announce that the contestant in last place will die until everyone from the finalists confesses their sins.
Danganronpa fans will feel right at home, the music in Buried Stars especially is reminscent of DR (to put it nicely without using the word ripped off).
The characters are refreshingly real and nowhere near as cartoony as in DR. It's very wordy, but the art is amazing.
You work through conversation scenes by presenting keywords to extract new info, which can affect your relationship with others and your sanity.
I'm on my second route after seeing the crazy "normal end". It went from scary murder mystery to "how to deal with Twitter trolls" and from earnest discussions on the merits of scripted reality to deep dives into nasty rumors on your fellow contestants.
Don't sleep on this game!
