DLC Synopsis
Spoiler
You've spent seven unforgettable days with the Grim Reaper—an ordinary(?) person like you, and a being who shouldn't even exist.
Throughout these seven days, you've laughed, you've cried, you've fallen in love... but so many mysteries still remain.
Who really is Casper, and how did he come to exist in the first place?
Dive even deeper into the world of A Date with Death with an all-new route. Starting with a fresh Day 6 and unfolding all the way through Day 10, this DLC brings you new conversations, stunning art, four new endings, and of course, the same beloved Grim Reaper.

Didn't finish it yet but man - MAJOR mixed feelings. The art is breathtaking, the animation is step above but the actual writing? This game is a great example as to why you shouldn't follow current trends when you're making something that's supposed to last. The dialogue is already a little outdated. The whole thing has a forced quirky vibes which is really "make or break". And the game really forces us between a couple of choices that are essentially the same, but written a little differently. I get how those kinds of games are created but most of them at least have a "shy option, neutral option, negative option, flirty option" etc. This one has just the "quirky snarky character" option written differently which is not all that good for roleplay, and is borderline immersion breaking. The dialect of the character only makes this worse, and honestly? It's the first time since I was genuinely bothered by the lack of choices. Maybe it's because I'm comparing it to the golden standard of Our Life - but that game didn't necessarily have "choice trees" either for any random dialogue but the characters you could create still felt starkly different because of the options. It's really damn important in a game like this!

It's a cute dating sim, with a both simple and unique premise, nice to spend an evening with. The lewd scenes you have to wait for quite a bit, but they're nice and well made. Full of personality and clearly made with love Pros: - An easy to follow but still very fun story - Beautiful art - Character creation!!! Room creation!?! - Plenty of little additions that make the game feel more lively, like the paint tool, the random websites etc. Cons: - Choices aren't very meaningful for the majority of the game. - A couple random dialogue choices decide your ending, in some I can understand but sometimes it feels a bit... Random. Overall, I'd totally recommend this game to anyone who likes indie dating sims, it's very easy to enjoy.
