Embark on a darkly comedic adventure as the Grim Reaper in a mundane office job! In this indie narrative game, you, Death himself, are tasked with the surprisingly bureaucratic responsibility of deciding who lives and dies. Your choices will ripple through the world, impacting everything from office politics to the fate of humanity. Will you maintain the status quo, or thwart world-ending schemes? The path to middle management awaits!
Death and Taxes blends the narrative-driven gameplay of titles like Papers, Please, Reigns, Beholder, and Animal Inspector. Face the consequences of your decisions and unravel the mystery behind your unusual reincarnation.

- Tackle mountains of paperwork.
- Maybe pet the office cat?
- Engage in introspective self-reflection (in the mirror, of course).
- Fight off the existential dread (it’s okay, the fate of humankind is in your hands!).
- Enjoy that earworm of a tune in the elevator.
