Die by Anything (v2025.02.27)

An ordinary student’s day turns into a viciously unpredictable horror story where a harmless choice can lead to a gruesome end. Die by Anything is a compact, choice-driven visual novel built around dark comedy, shock deaths, and the uneasy feeling that reality is constantly working against you. One moment you are trying to get through a routine day; the next, you are facing bizarre monsters, bodily destruction, or a full-scale zombie nightmare. Its tone is deliberately absurd, but the graphic consequences give every decision a nasty edge.

Play revolves around reading short scenes and selecting how the protagonist responds to increasingly suspicious situations. Choices branch into more than 30 possible endings, with over 20 decisions capable of sending the story down lethal paths, so failure is not merely possible—it is the expected way to learn the rules of this world. Deaths are presented through comic-style sequences, giving each bad ending its own illustrated punchline or grotesque payoff. Previously reached scenes become selectable, which makes revisiting branches far less tedious and encourages players to hunt for missed outcomes rather than restarting from the beginning every time.

The appeal lies in its willingness to make virtually anything dangerous, turning ordinary logic into a liability and rewarding curiosity as much as caution. Different artists contribute to the final scenes, so the death illustrations carry a varied, anthology-like visual character instead of feeling mechanically repeated. Die by Anything is best approached as a replayable catalogue of morbid surprises rather than a long narrative adventure, closer in spirit to branching “bad ending” visual novels than a traditional survival game. Fans of gallows humor, experimental horror, and uncovering every route will find plenty to chase, while players sensitive to gore, unsettling imagery, or sudden cruelty should probably give this one a miss.
