Jul 22, 2020Death Come True has some curious idiosyncrasies , but it's simply a good movie with an enjoyable story and strong performances.

Jul 24, 2020When it comes to gameplay and longevity, Death Come True suffers from the exact same issues as many titles in the FMV genre without breaking new ground. But Izanagi's engrossing tale of love, regret, and murder redresses the balance with superb performances, dramatic twists, and a genuinely impassioned climax. It's a short, somewhat expensive trip, but one worth taking when it hits your personal price-point.

Jul 23, 2020That isn't to say Death Come True is a throwaway gag or a low-quality offering. It's not in the slightest. This is more a fun little thing to get your mind thinking for a few hours. In that regard, it succeeds really well and I wouldn't mind seeing a longer version of this in the future. There's a lot of potential here, even if the plot and characters are fun enough in their own right.

CD-ActionOct 15, 2020Death Come True has an interesting narrative foundation which is wasted due to illusory choices (think “Telltale games”), the finale boiled down to choosing one of two options, and mediocre special effects. It’s like a B movie – mostly watchable if there’s nothing better, but forgettable. I’m still waiting for an FMV game to sweep me off my feet. [10/2020, p.92]

Aug 2, 2020This game is ruined.
Just make it into an animated game.
The acting is so awkward. I can't concentrate.
