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!


Expansion DLC:

  • Extra character customization options (five hair fronts, five hair backs, three fem outfits + recolors, four masc outfits + recolors, and 13 accessories)
  • Adds extra choices and conversations throughout all days (find the ★ symbol!)
  • Adds one additional ending (including a new CG!)

This DLC adds some small additional goodies to the free base game.

Grab it right here!


Beyond the Bet:

  • Additional Content: Five brand new days of chatting and calling with your favorite babygirl reaper.
  • Brand New Art: A host of brand new CGs from original game artist Fuyuure!
  • New Endings: Four new endings that lead into your future (or not) with Grim.

This is our huge content DLC. It adds an entirely new offshooting storyline and many additional days of chatting.

Another games another glitch no matter what if there can be a glitch a glitch will happen and my mouse is not on it, stays after closing the game. save 12 blue outline

hi !! im trying to get the steam-key for the first DLC but it says that there arent any keys available even tho ive bought it? i would like to not have to pay for it again on steam when i already have it on here <33

The Steam keys were available upon release, but are no longer available, so I suggest only buying the DLCs on the platform you want to play it on.

ahh okay i wasnt aware of that :( thank u for answering! <3

this game has me in a chokehold (maybe literally if casper's into that typa stuff. wink wink)

(-1)

WHY IS HE SO BABYGIRL AND I ACT SO ALPHA MALE PLSSS (ToT) not complaining tho

I love this game he is so adorable

Hi! I have question... I have ADWD on steam... and played 2 times... 1 normal and 2 dlc... but when I load save all cg in gallery are gone... Is it bug? Or maybe it's proggramed like this?

(+1)

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!!!

(+2)

the dlc is just AWESOME

(+1)

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?

It sounds like you have not updated your base game.

(+1)

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?

(+1)

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

I'm so grateful that the game and dlcs are available on itchio, because it means I can download the files legally. I've been using Joiplay and its ren'py pluggin to play them via android since I enjoy playing while lounging in bed XD

Joiplay is an emulator to play few games on android phones (not all games can be supported though). It can be a bit tricky with keyboard stuff for typing and lagging, like how I'm lagging while dressing up my character in A Date With Death, so I frequently save up during it. But it get smoother after, just need to be patient (may depends on your device as well, since mine is an old android)

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.

(+1)

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

(+1)(-1)

same...

me too :( did u figure it out somehow or is it still lie this for u as well?

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

(1 edit)

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)

(+1)(-1)

Will you make it available for browser or android at any point? ty

ITS HERE OMGOMGOMGOMG

(+1)

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

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:

  1. Download Beyond the Bet, and extract the zip file.
  1. Move/copy Beyond the Bet.rpa into the "game" folder of A Date with Death (free base game). If you've moved it to the correct place, it should be alongside archive.rpy.

MAC:

  1. Download Beyond the Bet, and extract the zip file.
  1. Move/copy Beyond the Bet.rpa into the "game" folder of A Date with Death (free base game). On Mac, you may need to right click on the A Date with Death launched and click "view package contents". If you've moved it to the correct place, it should be alongside archive.rpy.

I just saw it, I'm so sorry- I didn't see it before I feel stupid- ty tho- :>

https://twoandahalfstudios.itch.io/beyond-the-bet-dlc

The voice acting will be added some time next year, since voice acting is a bit of a process!
