About The Grim and I
The Grim and I is a unique 155,000 word interactive novel by Thom Baylay, where your choices control the story. It's entirely text-based—without graphics or sound effects—and fueled by the vast, unstoppable power of your imagination.
How will you react to the discovery that you are dead? When the Grim Reaper offers you a way forward, will you take it? Or are you still clinging to the world that you left behind? Begin the most important conversation of your afterlife as you take on Death in a story that will redefine the meaning of Choice; where the game reads you as much as you read it and where your greatest enemy is yourself. Challenge your instincts; fight your temptations; and embrace that most primal of fears. Choose your life, your love, your job and then make the hardest choice of all - to let it all go.
- Play as male, female or non-binary; gay, straight or bisexual.
- Leave your body and bear witness or try to interfere as life continues without you.
- Meet, befriend and customise your own personal Grim Reaper!
- Choose your perfect life, and then see if you can choose to let it all go.
- Identify and overcome the unfinished business that binds you to this world. Love, fear, rage or ambition; your choices will reveal the truth!
- As the chains begin to cover your body, will you be able to fight free, or will you succumb to your vices and stay haunting the world for eternity?
- Forget everything you know about interactive fiction as the Grim Reaper questions your choices and challenges your motives, blurring the lines between fiction and reality.
- Explore the concept of death and the ideas of loss and letting go in the company of your Grim guide.

Not inclusive for single people at all...5 found this helpful
So, this one is weird to me. It had a concept that I really enjoyed, with a story that felt unique while remaining in familiar territory. That being said though, is kind of where my praise has to stop. First and foremost; the story was entirely too short and was over before I realized it. Also, as one other user phrased it, you just had to put your own personal PC nonsense into what was otherwise an entertaining story, didn't you? You just couldn't handle going one minute without spewing your garbage on everyone else as if you needed to let everyone know that you're a crossfit vegan cyclist in your off time when you're not doing whatever this is. Had the author managed to keep their own politics out of the story, greatly to the detriment of an essential character, then this would've been worth recommending, even if only on sale. But I honestly, just can't recommend it. 4/105 found this helpful
Alternative title: How to get rid of your emotional baggage. Let death come to the old you and embrace the transformation in your life. So I do not recommend it if you're not prepared to let go just yet. Or maybe this is exactly what you need. What can I say? ♪ ♫ Let it go, let it go! Can't hold it back anymore ♫ ♪ About the replayability: - Your choices do impact the outcome, but you can only see that in new playthroughs. These subtleties are an essential part of the storytelling and the philosophical reflection. - Reacting differently to your grim reaper shows different sides of their personality. Really well written. - Choosing different forms for your grim reaper unlocks special hidden dialogues. And there are a lot of mythological options from different cultures!

What am emotional roller coaster. I highly recommend this game but I think for some it will be an emotional read, its so hard letting go and this is a story about that, not everything has a happy ending.
This game is absolutely amazing 10/10 i love it
