About
In this small Indie, short narrative-based game, you take the role of the Grim Reaper... on an office job. Your job is to decide which people are going to live or die.

Azrail olmak eğlenceli değildi desem yalan olur, Boyutu küçük bir oyun olmasına rağmen bir sürü farklı sonu ve Easter Egg'i var bence parasını hak eden oyunlardan biri.
Nice, in some sense cosy maybe. Helps to really relax doing simple mundane work but with interesting plot.
The concept of the game is quite unique and attention grabing. However, i waited for it to include more information of the dead and not just the same old 6 to 10 lines that resumes a person. Plus, the story within is not enough to distract your attention from the repetitive pattern of the game. I do have to say that each story is visibly worked on and not just a random story to get it done. Maybe in another version of the game, it has the chance to solve the repetitiveness.

Every market we collect.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,404 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

I love this cute and fun game
too boring
很无聊，玩得很困
really fun game. there are a lot of different ways the story can go, and I wasn't expecting that it would hold my attention for so long
Good story
We're stuck doing boring paperwork where you get to decide who lives and who dies. It didn't feel like our choices made any difference at all.
我觉得很有意思。因为我是折扣价，所以我觉得物超所值。还有就是为什么招募里存不了档？我觉得不仅仅是无聊的问题，最主要是流程太长了。我现在在追求满成就，我手都点抽了，对我的手很不友好，我的手指头好疼
