A Date with Death
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
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.
💀 Custom Character Creation:
Build your own protagonist, from their physical appearance to their pronouns and name. Update them throughout the game!
💀 Room Design:
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 and let their cute antics help you unwind
💀 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?
💀 Gorgeous Original Art:
It has to be said... the Grim Reaper is good-looking. Just don't tell him - it'll go to his head.

lord help me how much of my student loan is about to go to the dlc and merch for this game ;-;
i was recommended this on tiktok an AGE ago i cannot understand why i didn't make time for it sooner. absolutely loved the design elements, loved the streaming screen, in love with my in game cat. I was a little confused when we never talked to anyone else on the app, with seeing dms just at the side of the screen i was really sure we were gonna get other reapers coming into it. i think that was my overall problem with the base game is grim not getting your soul is just like haha, awh well good thing we're in love. i really wished there had been consequence and a sense of risk in the base game like grim saying if i dont take your soul it will mess up the balance for reapers everywhere just so there felt like there was still a driving force pushing the bet towards the end of the week. the consequences might be in the dlc for all i know at present but i do wish they'd been slightly more present here. all in all though 9 out of 10. it's a phenomenal game and free at that, and absolutely worth a play.
It's a very long game to play, it feels like a slow burn and it differently is. It is worth the hours but I won't say that it is the best game I have played. Again I must state it is worth playing the game!!!!
This is such a great game!!! Im so addicted to this even though i already finished it, I still cant forget the interaction between my character to Grim!!! it makes me feel the butterflies in my stomach. TYSM!! for creating this game.
Genuinely obsessed with this game and now idk how to fill the void. The DLC was fantastic tysm <3
I've known this game since a month before launch, and I got to say, I love Casper. He's so bbg fr, I bought the dlcs and played them and omg, he' so so.
how do you get the dlc to open? for me it wont.. even after following the instructions (im on windows)
Sadly I can't tell you for sure since I got it on Steam.
you have to copy/move the dlc file (it´s an rpa file) into the "game" folder inside the a date with death folder. like, when you open the game's folder, there are the "renpy", "lib" and "game" folders. if you move the dlc file there, it should work and the next time you play you'll see a "thank you for buying...." screen
I've done everything I could possibly do... BUT I CANT OPEN THE DLC WITH THE GAME I WANNA COOL FIT!?!? ToT HELP ME PLEASE!!!!
I'm on mac btw Idk if that has something to do with it.
Hi there - unfortunately all I can tell you do to is to follow the instructions. If you can't get it to work, you can request a refund from itch.io and grab it on Steam where it handles all the files for you.
Sobs because i need an android version 😔
This game was amazing! I loved it💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
YES
BYE this is so cute?? I might buy the Beyond the Bet DLC if I get the money
its so worth it omg, the DLC story line was amazingggg
Will it be available on Android?
Amazing game I finished it yesterday. Such a cute Reaper. Nice you guys make a dlc with more days. I always liked your games. If you guys think in translate it for brazilian portuguese, i can help for free of course because this game is amazing and i want more people playing it.
holy crackers y'all devoured, 10/10
i have never been so emotional about a game in my life, was watching a YT vid of someone playing the DLC, they got the Forget Me Not ending and i sobbed <3
i live in germany and i bought dlc but there is no adult patch on steam so i downloaded it on itch but its still not working what do i do to make it work ???
My best friend and I HARDCORE bonded over this gorgeous game. Insane detail, hottest babygirl ever. Literally missing Casper like he is my lover gone at war... sigh my man my man my man...
grimmmmm casper i am so sorry hope he finds someone i dided and he had to deal with itttttt
an amazing game! Had me giggling the whole time, from both the flirting and the humor!! got me hooked and finished it in one sitting! Love me some Grim!
So I've come to the conculsion that my dlc simply just doesn't work for no reasion, like I have gone over the firworks scene so many times and it is actually not giving me the option to do anything and I have specifically bought and activated the dlc, it just skips to the next morning and I get no option like everyone else and I really want to know whats wrong and if anyone else is experienceing this at all?? I bought the game of discord btw I'm just putting this here cause I'm more likely to geta reply. Also this isn't a rip at the game, I generally love this visual novel I just want to experience all of it and I cant for some reason??? Please anyone help this is a last resort T^TTTTT
Are you talking about the NSFW scene? There is no NSFW scene in the DLC. If you want any, you need to add the NSFW patch. Skipping to the next morning is what is supposed to happen.
hes so pookie I love this!!
Whenever I open it it says "exe not responding" do you know how I can fix this?
SO GOOD 10/10 man I love my babygirl so muchhh got me giggling and kicking my feet I've played almost all the routes
Can't play the game since I'm on Android🥲 but watched a gameplay instead AND HOLY IT'S SO GOOD!!!! I loved watching it!!! <3
voice acting when??
i LOVE the customization and humour in this. also the ads in the corner bringing you to actual visual novels is GENIUSSSSS LMAO. love this!
Love the game it's so silly! I've had it for a while now, still need to get the rest of the endings tho- I bought the DLC and saw someone ask about how to get it to work, my question is tho, how can you know if it's been added after buying? I have the steam version of the game as well if the DLC is more likey to work on there maybe? Just can't tell if I added it right lmao
WHEN WILL THERE BE A W WEDDING DLC LMAO (kidding...or am I?)
There's already a wedding ending, so no need!
YIPPIE NEED TO PLAY THIS MORE
will it be available on android soon?
I bought beyond the bet and its not really working, i tried downloading it and reopening but nothing seems to be working. Any tips will be really helpful. But if there is any way for me to get my money back?
You'd need to be more descriptive of your problem for me to help. You can contact itch.io to ask for a possible refund, though.
Okay, thank you for the help. :)
Omg... i have been giggeling for more than an 1hour after finishing it (he is my husband hehe) i fucking loved those sassy optionss T,T
very cute writing and loads of interactive gems, corny but sweet storyine. The credits in the end fly off like rocket and I couldn't see anything lmao. I'll save up for DLC, despite it going out of budget for me because the price is a lot in my currency. btw the Only F pages of Grim threw me off guard, I think the artist is hiding a smut version somewhere in their pc memory
I want to play SO bad but have Chromebook and don't know how to run linux, will you ever release a android vers?
You can download it on steam! It should work then!
unfortunately my Chromebook doesn't support steam :C
omg thats so unfortunate </3 i hope they add chromebook support soon D:
me tooo </3
I tried to play the game but this keeps showing up💀💀 I don't think Casper likes me that much
Press shift + g in game and change your renderer, it looks like your computer does not support the renderer used for the game.
I wanna get him pregnant
Same- Same-
same lol
Because I'm addicted to this game!!!!! 10000/10 (this is not a hate comment I promise lolz)
I played this before the DLC and I absolutely loved it!! I just bought the DLC but I'm wondering if you guys know when the voice acted version will be released? Thank you so much!
the best
哭了，电脑坏了，我不能玩这个游戏了，我好喜欢他！！
game so good omg i luv teasing casper so much and i even bought the dlc too bcos i want him so bad ><
Will you make the game for phones someday 😭?
Probably not
我也希望！--
