HAVE A NICE DEATH is a 2D Action Roguelike where you play as Death, CEO of Death Incorporated, who currently finds himself teetering on the edge of burnout. His top executives, the Sorrows, have been running rampant on Earth’s surface, leaving him buried in an underworld-sized mountain of paperwork. Now, in order to regain control of his company, as well as secure a much-needed vacation, he will need to traverse the various departments of Death Incorporated and remind his subordinates who’s boss.

I’m not a big fan of Roguevania-style games. Roguevania-style games are where they continue to expand as long as you stay alive. But as soon as you die, you go all the way back to the beginning. It’s frustrating to say the least. But for some reason, “Have a Nice Death” makes up for it in lore and animation. The interaction between Death and all of his underlings makes for a good story, and lightens the stress of having to start from the beginning every time you die. I might I have finished the final boss, but I still didn’t get to the finish line, and that makes for fantastic replay value.
