A Date with Death

A Date with Death is a visual novel where the player meets the Grim Reaper after a strange program appears on their computer. The Reaper explains that the player has escaped death many times, and now it’s time to settle things. Instead of taking the player’s soul immediately, the Reaper offers a deal — a week to change fate through conversation, choices, and actions. During this week, the player learns more about the Reaper, their own life, and the reasons behind their repeated escapes from death.

Gameplay and Customization

In A Date with Death, players create their own character, choosing appearance, name, and pronouns. The player’s apartment can also be decorated with different items, making it feel like a personal space. The main gameplay happens through chat-based conversations with the Reaper, where every response can change the tone of the relationship and affect the final outcome. The game features multiple endings, based on how the player handles their week with the Reaper — from forming a connection to trying to outsmart death entirely.

Choices and Endings

The story moves forward based on player decisions, with each choice shaping how the Reaper sees the player and how the final day will unfold. Along the way, players can also interact with their pet, adding small moments of comfort between the more serious conversations. Some endings might bring closure, while others leave questions unanswered. A Date with Death combines interactive storytelling with character-driven dialogue, making every player’s experience slightly different depending on the choices they make and the personality they give their character.
