About the Game

You're just an ordinary person... or so you thought. For your entire life, you've been narrowly avoiding death by pure luck... or is it something more? When a strange program suddenly appears on your computer, and someone claiming to be the Grim Reaper says he's come for your soul, your life as you know it is thrown upside down.

As you delve deeper into the mysterious man that calls himself the Grim Reaper, you begin to wonder if fate brought you two together for a reason. Can you resist his charm, or will you fall for the one destined to take your soul?

A Date with Death is a supernatural romance chat simulator visual novel about the week long bet you enter against the Grim Reaper to attempt to keep your soul. Create your own character, from appearance to pronouns, decorate your apartment, and spend the (possible) last week of your life getting to know the one hunting for your soul.

💀 Make Your Character: Build your own protagonist, from their physical appearance to their pronouns and name. Update them throughout the game!

💀 Design Your Apartment: Decorate your apartment to your liking and create a cozy space that you'll love coming back to.

💀 Pet Your Furry (or scaley?) Companion: Yes, you can pet the dog. Snuggle up with your furry friend in-between chats.

💀 Choices That Matter: Make decisions that will affect your character's fate and lead you to one of multiple possible endings. What kind of relationship will you have with the Grim Reaper?

💀 Beautiful Art of the Babygirl Grim Reaper: Fill up your gallery throughout your playthrough with beautiful CGs, backgrounds, sketches, and more!
