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.
The main story of A Date with Death will always be free, but if you'd like to support the game and get some extras, then you can purchase our two optional DLCs!

This game is an absolute masterpiece, both the story and illustrations are incredibly beautiful(also really cute), I will cherish this gaming experience forever.
unless I die ofcourse.And thank you thank you for making this game!!!just finished playing the AMAZING dlc,and i must say the MC got a wonderful taste in clothes
the dlc is just AWESOME
I only finished the bloom ending and I was in tears.Me and Casper are finally together(and for the rest of our lives)YIPEEEE
hi for whatever reason the game isnt letting me get into the chatroom on day 8 what do i do?
me too
It sounds like you have not updated your base game.
I wish i could play on web! (my laptop doesn't let me download stuffs for sum reazon)
The new DLC is awesome I love Casper!!!!!!!!!!!!
By the way, I really like the bgm in it. Where can I download it?
Are you planning on making an android version, possibly? (I'm in pain being too broke for a computer...) If you do, OHMYGOSH THAT WOULD BE AMAZING ❤❤❤❤
But the game's artstyle looks SO GOOD based on what I've seen so far!!!! So cool!!! <33333
Is it possible to download this on my phone? I'm guessing not because it's for windows and apple? I don't have an apple phone btw.
Is it possible to get the expansion DLC on itch.io after buying it on Steam? The game lags a lot on Steam when I play on my laptop, and itch.io runs much more smoothly, so I was just wondering. This game is phenomenal and I really enjoy playing it and I want to be able to experience it without the lag.
Este juego es maravilloso, se nota el gran trabajo y el amor por parte de lxs creadorxs <3
I LOVE THIS GAME
After purchase of the Expansion:
Your purchase comes with a Steam key!
but I am receiving this message:
There are no keys available at this time, try again later.
🥺
same here
same...
I just finished playing it (sorry if i migtht not be clear with my words, english is not my first language)You're like really talented, everything, from the art to the story was so amazing. I have played a lot of dating sims before, but this one is one the of the best by far. Thank you so much for creating this game!
I LOVE THE BEYOND THE BET IS SO AMAZING. LIKE I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR A CONTINUE OF THIS DATING SIM FOR 387492 YEARS, LIKE OMGOMGOGM
I think I already have all the endings but in the gallery, two CGs are locked. The bottom left one, and another one is above it. How do I get them? T_T (I really love the DLC<3)
Will you make it available for browser or android at any point? ty
ITS HERE OMGOMGOMGOMG
Please make a laptop version of the game T-T
(If the game can be used on a laptop, could someone explain to me how?, I'm sorry, I don't know much about this topics)
Just download th pc version:>
Ah, can I not buy the base + DLC as a gift? The gift option shows up with Beyond the Bet alone, but not here if I add-on the DLC. Of course, makes sense with the free base solo, but is there no possibility with the +DLC?
is the extra add on for beyond the bet steam only?
Nope https://twoandahalfstudios.itch.io/beyond-the-bet-dlc
rotund means round/fat!
whoopsies! thanks....
I was already in love with this game, but oh my goodness. My heart... I love the new DLC.<3
Hello I'm so sorry to bother you! I bought received backerkit of beyond the bet DLC through Kickstarter but I forgot I bought the initial DLC on itch io! Do I need the initial DLC content to access beyond the bet? Or is there way for me to get itch io key for this new beyond the bet DLC?
They're totally separate, you don't need both.
Thank you so much! I'm very excited to play beyond the bet!
Hi! Is it possible to get the DLC and download it through the itch.io app? On my end it's saying that an error occured during instilation and No manager for installer unknown. I have the base game downloaded as well as I have a mac if that helps
Is the dlc not working properly for anyone else or does my laptop just suck?
You'll have to give us some more details to be able to help
Ah- sorry- this is my first time downloading a dlc so I just don't know what I'm doing- I bought it and I'm doing what I can, but it's just. Not working? I'm sorry I don't know how to word it. This is really confusing for me. @. @
Did you move the dlc files to the "game" folder? ^^
Did you follow the install instructions?
WINDOWS:
MAC:
I just saw it, I'm so sorry- I didn't see it before I feel stupid- ty tho- :>
BEYOND THE BET ISN'T APPEARING ON HERE, IT'S JUST ON STEAM😭
https://twoandahalfstudios.itch.io/beyond-the-bet-dlc
I am just curious before buy does it have voice acting added cause I know there was a trailer for it half year ago
The voice acting will be added some time next year, since voice acting is a bit of a process!
have fun guys! the dlc is out <3
wait is beyond the bet cost money??
yeah it should be like $10 USD (it's actually $6.99 USD! my bad!)
does it cost money on here or is it just on steam?
should cost money on both platforms ? it's a DLC they're not going to release it for free haha
alright
Did…did the base game download disappeared for anyone else?
yep! but don't worry it's probably undergoing a bit of updates <3
Thank goodness, I hope that is all!

OMG I adore this game! I managed to find a way to play it on my iPad mini 6 (along with the DLC!), and it is so much fun! 10/10 writing, can't wait to play the Beyond the Bet DLC!
how??
Via an app called Spark- Ren'Py Novels! The game does crash every once and awhile, but as long as you save often it's fine. They weren't meant for ios so the fact they work is awesome! Installed the DLC is similar to how you would do it on PC. Install the base through spark, extract the dlc from the zip file and move it to the game folder in Spark (using files app). The file structure will be almost exactly the same as PC.
I also got Our Life working, with all DLC!
ah ok thank you!
just finished the game and oh my godddd!! this cutie reaper, i kept flirting with him and every time he blushed or pouted, i felt my heart getting captured.he doesn't need to ask for my soul since he already has my heart hehe
im so excited for the beyond the bet expansion omg
