OKAY, I LITERALLY LOVE THIS GAME SO MUCHH. This game make me feel so happy, like- Literally dumb. It was a lot of pretty drawings and it's nice talk to him!! :d
I firmly believe that this is my fault, but I lost all my progress. I have been eavesdropping on the neighbors in the game and missed the last day's text because I played with my pet for 15 whole minutes, which don't get me wrong I loved, so I got out of the game got back into it and there were only two saves from that day, which is weird because I am a slow reader and did take a break from the game before continuing it so it gave the autosave enough time to save, I looked back into previous save slots and there was nothing, so I went back to the first couple slots and those two were gone and replaced by a MUCH earlier save. Either way, I loved the game. I do wish that the autosaves didn't disappear but it is completely fine I will just replay the game I absolutely ADORE Casper so very much after all. I will not lie I have never loved a character or even a person as much as I love Casper, I could go on and on about how much I love him. But I won't. I just wanted to bring this to your attention, I do not know if anyone else has had this issue but it is completely fine I'm just a little sad I didn't get to finish the game before losing all my progress. I would have probably replayed the game either way so, like I said, it is completely fine! And sorry if this is all my fault and I am just being dumb. If I remember correctly the ONLY save there is the one I manually saved, if that helps at all.
i love this game sm but i wasnt able to complete it,,,, basically, i saved on the day where he is meant to reap your soul, closed the game and now it isnt letting me open my save! when i try to, it says theres a problem. (copy pasting what it says)

I absolutely love this game, and I can't wait to see the DLC! Unfortunately I'm having some trouble adding this to my steam library :< Is there anyone I can contact to work it out?
You can contact us at support(at)twoandahalfstudios.com - but you have to make sure you first download the free base game before you add the dlc to your Steam library.
I personally loved this game so much. everything about it is just so..AHHH (in a VERY good way). thank you for sharing this game, and I wish you to have many successes :)<3.
I have honest to God never seen a better visual novel game that wasn't a psychological horror. I shed an actual tear at Ending 2. I squealed when he gave my flowers. I flirted like there was no tomorrow. I haven't even GOTTEN the other endings yet I just needed to tell you how incredible this game is, marry me Grimmy
Absolutely fell in love with this!! Got me screaming like having an actual crush, I'm turning this in my new personality! ( •̀ ω •́ )✧
Jokes aside, loved all the interactions! It just felt so natural and honest, I think my standard on men just got even higher... 1000/10, will re-play this a lot, I'm down bad for this. Period.
PS: Just want to show off a little, I got the Ending 3 (Mine) in the first try, no guide, just me being... me. That means I'm claiming him, we're canon, sorry not sorry.

。:.゚ヽ(´∀`。)ノ゚.:。+゚
Just finished the base game! Holy cow was it worth the anticipation! Love Casper so much :3
The art is gorgeous! Beautiful choice of music. And so many fun little things littered around like the neighbour story and our books. 10/10! Props to the team! VERY tempted to get the DLC next :3
Edit1:Got the DLC ending! All the dlc choices were so good. Got me giggling and kicking my feet GOSH... Love it. LOVE IT. Can't wait for the Beyond The Bet DLC next MWEHEHEHEHE
I JUST finished the game and omg...Casper is so babygirl and bastard at the same time. Anyway, he's a well written character and honestly so is MC. Even though only a week went by their relationship progress feels very natural. I really liked their little convos and it made me feel connected to them and their relationship. Writing and artwork is simply amazing :D
I was very impressed with overall UI design and wide range of customization: different hairstyles/clothes and room that you can change and interact with (!). I loved those joke adds popping out lol. I enjoyed seeing a different website every time I opened up the browser, I actually took my time playing mini-games. It was SO FUN, just like this entire game.
I saw people talking about this game on Tumblr, and while I held high expectation this game definitely exceeded them. I'm kind of dating sim/otome games veteran and this game easily joins my favorites. I can't wait for the DLC to come out. Great job, I want more! :D
Wow, this game never fails to put a smile on my face even when I'm alone in my room. Who wouldn't fall in love with that adorable and bashful Grim Reaper? I adore Casper! Ahhh! Plus, the character customization and mini-games are just fantastic. Such a great game!
My review, from a gay VN enjoyer's perspective: a great game; makes me think of scorpy socpens' "maybe ill never die becuse am special" tweet. the premise is fun, the chat-app style interface was creatively done, and grim is a great character. also i'm addicted to the wordle clone. i spent so long playing that over and over, leaving poor grim neglected. sorry grim.
I could talk about my general thoughts, which are largely positive, but i want to focus this review on what i call the "gay immersion rating". that is to say—when it comes to VNs that allow you to be gay, i like to give them a grade based on how seamlessly i can be gay. as a bi man who enjoys VNs, i often find myself in situations where a VN will allow me to choose he/him pronouns, but it's often still quite painfully obvious from the way the games are written that the writers intended for the player to be a straight woman. This is often a source of dysphoria for me, since I also happen to be trans.
My criteria is simple: if I can play through a VN multiple times as a man without ever once feeling like I'm playing the game in a way that the writers did not intend me to, it will get a perfect A+ score. I knock the score down for all the times my "gay immersion" is broken, and by different amounts depending on severity. Rarely, I may even give games an S score if they go out of their way for inclusivity. Note that this grade does not reflect on my overall feelings of the game itself—I can really love a game and still give it a low score—it only reflects my feelings on it's success in the inclusivity department.
In this regard, I give this VN a B. It was originally an A-, because while I could still tell that the player was intended to be a woman, for the most part it was largely through minor things such as:
- the customization options (which seemed to either lean largely toward the feminine side in aesthetic, or when they were more masculine, often lacked the same character that the more feminine options had, leaving very few options that balanced the line between "not aesthetically interesting to me" and "too feminine for my taste". The DLC helps in this regard, just a bit)
- the default pronouns being she/her despite the inclusion of neutral pronouns
- and the hilariously unsexy attempt at seductiveness that comes from all instances of "good girl" being replaced with "good guy". All of which were small signs of inclusivity-as-an-afterthought, yet forgivable due to their fleeting or otherwise mild nature.
However, I had to unfortunately knock it down a letter grade, because on one subsequent playthrough while testing out some choices i hadnt seen, there was a bit where grim actually fully misgendered me—i suppose in the search-and-replace of "she" pronouns, someone missed one. oops. I still have not played through every possible choice, so I also have no way of guaranteeing there arent any other mistakes in other choices.
still, most of these instances are minor enough that they can be largely ignored, and even the misgendering only happened in one particular choice branch, which i can avoid now that i know where it is. (For those who want to avoid it as well, I will simply advise you not to choose any choices relating to "national championships"...) and while it's not the best i've seen, I've also seen much, much worse from supposedly inclusive VNs. the ability to choose custom adjectives helped quite a bit and was very much appreciated, since I've noticed for a lot of VNs, their inclusivity-as-an-afterthought often gives itself away in the adjectives the writers choose to use for the player. So allowing the player to choose their own adjectives was quite clever—any dysphoria i got was largely offset by the gender euphoria of grim calling me a handsome man.
overall, i did enjoy this game, and do recommend it. I especially recommend getting the DLC, it includes my favorite of the endings and some of the better clothing options. i hope the next dlc lets me give my MC my handsome aquiline nose and facial hair....
The Vibe, the comedy, the music, my goodness I loved this game so much! He the moment and is BABY GIRL. Loved bullying him in the beginning and the option to be a sassy protagonist has my heart. Also customization is amazing, I could get into the vibe with an OC and everything that helped with the flow of the game. It's also unbelievable this has an option to be free too. Wanted to add I'm sold and already bought the dlc and the other to wishlist on steam XD
I love this game alot! It’s rare to find games that you can fully customize things (eheheh, I had pet snake named Baizhu)! And I get yet another character design that can’t help but get flustered 0//0 I finished it awhile ago I got ending 3.. eheh-
very good! i just wish we could be a bit nicer with death in the beginning...i understand it would be irrealistic to believe him but maybe could our character believing him is faking it.
Ive been questioning my gallery for the past few months surprisingly and i havent gotten the full coloured cg for an ending even though i have the sketch,, i've gone through a save file and doing the ending a few times and it wont appear. What's going on-?? 😢

Would pay so much just to get a part two or at least more endings and daily life with him sim. love this man so much
Holy poo, well made an every way. And I love the diversity
Thats my BF now >.)
有爆出剧情,敬请关注!!
我爱他,我爱死神,他哭的样子太痛苦了(但我喜欢看他哭,对不起,太可爱了)你能想象我唯一的拥抱就是我死在他的怀里吗?太刺激了,他很容易就脸红了,“那就吻我吧,我的小噩梦。神。。。。。我的心已经被他俘虏了,我每天都和朋友们谈论他,他怎么是一个如此完美的人,我真的很爱他,现在我所有的朋友都知道我喜欢他,我一直在画小死神,他真的太完美了。我也试过写一些文章,但没写完,我喜欢糟糕的结局,我想象着我死后的灵魂也可以变成死亡,这样我和他就成了同事,他不用因为爱人类而被猎杀,我们甚至可以在一起,真的超级幸福!!
