About this game

Sever and preserve the tongues of the dying to steal their stories! Whether you gather their tales and memories for the greater good, or use what you learn to become one of the elite who decide what to call "History" is up to you.

"Death Collector" is a 300,000 word interactive fantasy novel by Jordan Reyne, 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.

As a Death Collector, your job is to visit the dying and harvest their stories by cutting out their tongues. Whether you seek fame, fortune, love, or renown, you'll find playing Death is more than just a job. Will you be able to stomach the gore-work that is cutting the tales of the dead from their mouths, or will you find out how the Ministry disposes of their workers?

• Play as male, female, or non-binary; gay, or straight.
• Learn to kill with style and professionalism, or to plunder information you were never meant to know.
• Join the elite ranks of the Board, or reveal the rot at the center of the system and lead a revolution.
• Get to know your cloak—a weird, organic entity that can render you invisible.

The wages of Death are yours for the taking!

Ratings and reviews

I really *wanted* to like this. The premise was very interesting, and something unique I hadn't thought of before. Unfortunately this is drowned out by how railroaded the story is. The characters, while distinct, always act in precisely the same way almost in spite of your choices. There are no alternate routes, and what little romance is available (not the main theme I understand, but would have made the material less dry) is shared between all available romance partners. They are copy and pasted, the only difference often being the name of the partner. It also ends rather abruptly for my tastes, and came unexpectedly. One thing I will commend(?), it actually felt like I was in a legitimate bureucracy haha.

One of my favorite apps/stories. Loved the very unique setting. You can really craft your character through your choices and interactions with others. Honestly the only not positively shining thing I could say is the ending I got was a little abrupt, but not even it was bad, just unexpected and I did still like it. Definitely worth supporting the writer and I look forward to anything else they put out.

I actually purchased this game. The overall mechanics of writing like grammar, spelling, and plot were very good. The world built was unique. You are death incarnate and you harvest tongues and are invisible. Sounds really cool. The characters are all unique, well defined and relatable. Different playthroughs will have different characters you grow close to. The game felt like a school or college with tons of bureaucracy and intrigue involved. Somewhat difficult game to get a good ending.

Fixed a bug (for real, this time) where the app could lose progress when the app goes into the background. If you enjoy "Death Collector", please leave us a written review. It really helps!
