Unique gameplay, darkly comedic theme, high replay value, convenient NSP format. Cons: Some players may find the gameplay a bit repetitive.
The gameplay mechanics are simple yet engaging, with a depth that comes from optimizing your afterlife infrastructure and managing the diverse types of souls, each with their quirks and challenges. The game's difficulty curve is well-balanced, making it enjoyable for both casual players and strategy game enthusiasts.
In "Death and Taxes," you play as the Grim Reaper, tasked with managing the afterlife's bureaucracy. The game is essentially a tower defense game with a twist: instead of building defenses, you're guiding souls through the afterlife's administrative process. You'll build, upgrade, and optimize a series of stations to efficiently process the living into the afterlife, all while dealing with pesky tax collectors trying to claim their share of the souls' assets.
For fans of strategy games, dark comedies, and those looking for something new and different on the Switch.
