Death and Taxes

The Good
I found its unique gameplay—players as Grim Reapers, making life-and-death choices based on diverse criteria, revitalizing simulation, to be a fun a fresh experience. You'll be making profound decisions and get caught in moral dilemmas; both where choices carry narrative weight. I enjoyed the hand-drawn art and atmospheric soundtrack me. Great writing—humorous, witty, thought-provoking—enriched interactions. Despite light-hearted surface, game delved into emotional, philosophical themes. Works well for short play sessions as the game itself isn't very long and begs to be replayed for different results.

Top/best qualities:

  1. Unique Gameplay Concept
  2. Meaningful Choices
  3. Art Style and Atmosphere
  4. Narrative Depth
  5. Replayability
  6. Accessibility
  7. Engaging Writing
  8. Low Barrier to Entry
  9. Emotional Impact
  10. Short Play Sessions

    The Bad
    In my first 3.5 hours of gameplay, I replayed the entire game many times. This was to see different outcomes and to obtain various achievements (both of which I highly recommend). Had I not done this, it would have seemed very light in content. If you can deal with all of that, then you've got a fine game with a lot of charm and good humor.

Bottom/worst qualities:

  1. Repetitive Gameplay
  2. Shallow Gameplay
  3. Narrative Predictability
  4. Lack of Clear Impact
  5. Expected to Replay
  6. Pacing Issues

    The Bottom Line
    A worthwhile experience but come with the expectation that you will need to play it through several times in order to squeeze it for the content that it holds.
