About Cure for Death

Cure for Death is a short visual novel that blends 2D and 3D elements. It marks the first chapter of a chilling story set amidst mysterious events in an old mansion. You’ll encounter its peculiar residents — and you won’t just talk to them, you’ll have to live with them.
Why is it so cold in here?!The story follows a young man who leaves his hometown to chase his dream job at a prestigious publishing house. Low on funds, he moves into a suspiciously affordable house — and quickly finds out the real reason behind the bargain price.
This game features a beautifully flickering candle. Our entire budget was three cans of beer: two were spent on animating the flame, and the last one went to the person who composed the music.In this game, you’ll find:
– picturesque backgrounds (drawn completely voluntarily, we swear),
– a cat — because what kind of game doesn’t have a cat?
– a few mini-games to keep you entertained (and to prove we did something),
– immersive, surround sound that gently hugs your ears.Some content has been tucked away for better times — when we have free hands, more time, and maybe a couple more cans of beer.

✦ AI summary

Players praise the game's atmospheric blend of 2D and 3D art, compelling character development that shifts from charming to unsettling, and strong sound design that effectively builds dread in the confined setting. However, many feel the current early access build is too sparse on content, with limited gameplay and objectives that leave players stuck with nothing to do after an hour or two, making it feel more like a tech demo than a playable game at its current price point.

Not recommended Dec 12, 2025
No idea what game the rest of the reviewers are playing. You arrive, you go to your room and unpack with some kind of game that I got by randomly clicking, then have a few conversations with uninteresting people, go to bed. Next morning you play the weirdest rhythm game ever, put your letter on the table, look at a few objects, answer a phone and then nothing. Too early for bed apparently but no more objectives, no more gameplay. This is not early access, this is a tech demo at best and you should not be asking for anyone to pay at this stage.

Even with the limited content shown (I understand it’s still early access, but at this stage it feels more like a paid demo), I can already see a lot of potential in this game. The concept is genuinely interesting, and I really like how the 2D and 3D elements blend together. The artwork is beautifully done, and the atmosphere fits perfectly with the closed, confined environment—it really pulls you in. The characters stand out the most for me. They’re fun, mysterious, and unsettling all at once. I especially enjoy how the game gradually becomes creepier over time, even with the characters who seem sweet at first. Watching them reveal their true colors adds so much tension and depth. Excited to see where this goes next!

I adore the atmosphere of this game. The 2D/3D combo is such an interesting choice and works so well. Of course, as a game in Early Access, the game is not finished so there's little things that need brushing up, and the story is not fully implemented, but I enjoyed every moment of the hour and a half I spent playing. I had a delightful moment when I realised there seems to be heavy inspiration from HP Lovecraft's Cold Air, which had me immediately even more intrigued to see where the story would go, only to be struck by the cliffhanger this EA leaves off at! I can't wait for the next update.

I am intrigued. Not a finished game, but I look forward to seeing a more polished finished once it is complete.

This game is fantastic! For just being in early access the game has already made me feel heart stopping dread. The 3D environment dose so much, giving you a real sense of loneliness in the big creaking house. You consistently feel alone and like someone is gonna jump out from their room and stab you 27 at any given moment. And, god, the light switching at the end of each day, made me feel like a little kid again. Quickly switching off the last light before booking it to my room. The house slow decay over the days is so great as well, what wonderful environmental storytelling, adds to the feeling no matter how this all ends, the one thing we know is that it ain't gonna be pretty. The sound design is incredible and the music effortlessly flip a mundane scene to tense in seconds. The characters are very interesting and I can't wait to learn more in the full release! My only current problems from the game all come from technical aspects. The english translation has a handful of errors (repeated sentences and missing words), they didn't pop up enough to take me out of the game completely but each time it stuck out like a sore thumb. My second issue is the clunky typewriter mini game.…
