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. Your choices will affect the world around you. Keep the chaos away or foil plots to destroy the world and rise through the ranks of Reapers all the way up to MIDDLE-MANAGEMENT, wow!
Death and Taxes is a game in the vein of narrative-based indie titles, such as "Papers, Please", "Reigns", "Beholder" and "Animal Inspector", to name a few. The consequences of your choices are yours to bear, while the mystery of your incarnation awaits revelation!

Reviews
Seeing as only some players have the achievement for playing the "new game+", I highly recommend that you do it. That's where all the real fun begins.
不错
Хорошая игра
I somehow managed to get through 2 hours of this game before never playing it again. Incredibly boring after the first few choices, nothing really progresses or changes.
actually pretty noice game
Curto porém interessante, gostei.
A fun game, visually compelling, and with high replayability!
很优秀的一个小品游戏,游戏中你扮演死神,你杀死谁或者救下谁会影响人类世界。创意满分,出于游戏性把角色扁平化了,但也是没办法的事情。为制作一个小成本文游提供了参考。
