About the Game

How Shall We Die?

A story-driven action game about a hopeless high school girl

walking through her dreams on the night before her 18th birthday.

About the Game

On the night before her birthday, a girl wanders through her dreams,

reflecting on the life she has lived so far.

In this dream world, players must rely on precise action gameplay.

She moves using magnetic forces and clears her path with a pickaxe,

facing real challenges that demand skill and careful control.

Along the way, she encounters three characters.

Through dialogue and intense confrontations,

she is forced to face herself and the meaning of her choices.

This is not a branching story.

The journey leads to a single ending — one that asks a quiet question

about life, hope, and death.
