A Date with Death - Beyond the Bet DLC
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
You've spent seven unforgettable days with the Grim Reaper—an ordinary(?) person like you, and a being who shouldn't even exist.
Throughout these seven days, you've laughed, you've cried, you've fallen in love... but so many mysteries still remain.
Who really is Casper, and how did he come to exist in the first place?
Dive even deeper into the world of A Date with Death with an all-new route. Starting with a fresh Day 6 and unfolding all the way through Day 10, this DLC brings you new conversations, stunning art, four new endings, and of course, the same beloved Grim Reaper.
About
A Date with Death is a supernatural romance chat simulator visual novel about the week long bet you enter against the Grim Reaper to attempt to keep your soul.
You can play the original, free to play game here:
When complications arrive and your bet needs to be extended, you'll spend five new days chatting (and maybe even going on dates?) with Casper.
Features
💀 Additional Content: Five brand new days of chatting and calling with your favorite babygirl reaper.
💀 Brand New Art: A host of brand new CGs from original game artist Fuyuure!
💀 New Endings: Four new endings that lead into your future (or not) with Grim.
How to install
To play Beyond the Bet, you must first download the free base game:
If you already had it downloaded before the release of Beyond the Bet, you MUST update your game files by redownloading the base game, too.
WINDOWS:
1. Download Beyond the Bet, and extract the zip file.
2. Move/copy Beyond the Bet.rpa into the "game" folder of A Date with Death (free base game). If you've moved it to the correct place, it should be alongside archive.rpy.
MAC:
1. Download Beyond the Bet, and extract the zip file.
2. Move/copy Beyond the Bet.rpa into the "game" folder of A Date with Death (free base game). On Mac, you may need to right click on the A Date with Death launcher and click "view package contents". If you've moved it to the correct place, it should be alongside archive.rpy.
Adult Patch
This free patch adds optional adult scenes (2) and some NSFW dialogue to A Date with Death - Beyond the Bet.
Adding it to the free base game will not do anything. You must own Beyond the Bet to play these free scenes.
To install, simply drop the file alongside BeyondtheBet.rpa and archive.rpa (the same way you installed Beyond the Bet!)
How to play the new content
Beyond the Bet is best experienced after completing the main story at least once, as it builds upon the events from the original pathway.
There's a few ways to start Beyond the Bet. If you've already finished the game once:
1. Main Menu: Select ‘Start’ from the main menu, and you’ll be prompted with the option to jump directly to Beyond the Bet.
2. In-Game: Play through the game normally, and when you reach the end of Day 5, choose the options marked with a flower to branch into the Beyond the Bet storyline.
If you haven't finished the game yet, or you've lost your save files, then you can unlock Beyond the Bet by:
1. In-Game: Finish at least one original ending.
2. Settings: You can also toggle Beyond the Bet on in the settings menu at any time, instead of playing through the original game.

Quick question! is the adult patch also on steam? or only on here?
On steam yes .... BUt is rilly NSFW....so jast waring
Mind helping me find it? idk where it is...
Hi, I love the game! However, I purchased both DLCs and downloaded the adult patch, and when I get to the NSFW scenes, my player appears with male anatomy despite me selecting all of the feminine options in the character customization. Is there something I am missing? Or are the scenes only available with male anatomy?
No, there should be an option in your first nsfw scene to pick female anatomy.
is this like mystic messenger where it tracks real time?
what are your favourite endings
My game glich out and i can't Play it more on dat 7 the chat don't work on the call and it a lot off glichs .... Is it my falt bc i put the DLC wrong or somting? Plis help...i Hawe the rar. That i put on the game folder and jast put IT....did i do somting wrong?
😭😭Plis help i wan't to Play it more .... I don't Hawe a stem and idk What is the problem...
You will need to give some more info for us to help. Did you reinstall the base game? It sounds like you put the DLC either in the wrong place or did not update your base game.
Ye i did not update but i but i ordy Fix it ty 🥲 i did not notist i nide to update
But ty for trying
im have a problem it keeps saying
(Full traceback) and (The directory name is invalid) i don't know what to do
Hi in-game or do you mean while trying to download? I suggest a redownload on the web of both the base game and the DLC, and deleting any old files.
hes so cute
i'm so poor rn... (Latinoamerica moment) but i'm so happy to see the dlc finished!!! your games are just a work of art! you deserve a nice rest after all that hard work!!
after finishing the dlc ( eleven stranger things meme ) papa me want more movie
i didn't have any problems reinstalling the base game, but when i try to download BTB i'm getting an error message: "An error occurred during installation. No manager for installer" i figure this could very well just be a problem with itch or my computer, but since i'm only getting the error on THIS download, i wanted to check if you guys knew anything about it?
i coerced my fiance into tech support XD if anyone else encounters this problem, run the download through your browser instead of the itch app :)
Best believe I'm purchasing this on steam right now.
it was amazing! got ending 8 and 9. not sure how to get others
there's a community guide on steam on hox to get the ending, go on the game then scroll
how did you get the 9, i tried but got the 6
the only difference i can think of, is who topped. when it was the mc, we stayed on earth and I got 8, when it was babygirl, we stayed in hell and I got ending 9
The NSFW scenes are optional and make no difference to which ending you get, just to note!
there goes my theory :P but thank you for the correction TaaHS
i just downloaded it omg so happy, hope i can manage to do the file thing and make it all work
How!? It works but it error out.... Did i got a Broken DLC!?
The way I actually stayed up all night and never once felt tired like usual, love the game sm!! xx
Ending 7... currently sobbing. i thought this would be a good ending. MYSTICMESSENGR PTSD IS ATTACKING Me TOO.
Im so glad I backed this on kickstarter I am loving it already!!! Totally cant wait to play more and hella hoping I don’t get a bad ending as my first ending!
Will this DLC be on sale during the steam winter sale?
No, it is too close to release, it cannot go on sale for the Winter Sale!
Got it! Thank you, love your work :D
how to update the game files by redownloading the base game, do i have to uninstall the base game, redownload it after i purchase the dlc ?
Yes just uninstall all old A Date with Death files and redownload.
I dont quite understand how to extract the zip file. Anyone know how to?
How do you add the patch if you bought the game on steam?
yeah i've bought the game on steam as well, i hope i don't have to buy it on here as well
The exact same way you add it to an itch.io version, so please follow the install instructions.
the dlc is on steam too, i suggest just getting it from there
anyone knoswhat the upside down scene of grim with ropes , him in a bathtubes with roses, and another shot in water are, havent found those scenes yet or how to get them
They are Patreon NSFW illustrations, they're only previews in game for the gallery.
ok thanks
Im not sure what to do because on day 8 when im trying to open my laptop and i click on the chatroom, when it asks to proceed it wont allow me to click on the 'yes' button, it only allows the 'no' button.is this apart of the game etc. i have to do something first? or is this a bug for me? thanks.
It sounds like you have outdated files. Please try redownloading everything (base game, any dlcs you have, any patches you have) and restarting from the start.
It worked, thank you! :)
Gosh the DLC is so good!!! I still need to unlock the new endings, but I love the ending I got!!!
Okay... so hear me out...
5012 has some... main LI energy... for a not-yet-created-MC in a not-yet-created-game...
Right?! I was thinking the same thing!
"I...I had what you'd call...a colleague. He was a fine Reaper, but he committed a taboo; he fell in love with a mortal...a human. I...I terminated him and erased his Lover's memories.
Is this karma? Just as I destroyed his mortal love, another will take my place and destroy mine."
--
>"Hehehe, I'm actually that mortal lol. █■□□■□■■, how does it feel? To fall in love, to break your sacred rules, to resign to a unattainable 'fate'.
May we never met again...Say hi to Casper for me, 5012."
>*Stab him*
>Hug him silently

Ending 7: The Cycle of Death
I always get the good endings so… I was just hoping for more happiness 😬
i'l definitely get this when i get money
is it buyable in cad/canada? its not letting me purchase
need.
I love the game so so much,and purchased this ahead of time. The only issue im running into now is that I get sent back to the main start screen after the first NSFW Scene. Someone let me know if Im being stupid and this is normal or no.I redownloaded and added all the right files. Help me lol
This would likely only happen with out of date files. Make sure you delete everything and redownload from scratch, including the base game, beyond the bet and the nsfw patch.
I've done that twice now (my poor laptop) and both times i go to my saved file after the NSFW scene, played through diolague, and it still kicks me back to the start screen. Theres also a glitch file that keeps adding itself back into the game folder, even after i delete it. Is it the old dlc? Ive checked lord knows how many times to make sure things were in the right folders and I had the right files. (sobbing rn) While if i click on the Sleep for the Night option instad of the NSFW scene, it works??? Maybe im stupid
probably bugs bc it just came out lol
Hey I'm not sure if I missed something but I can't get the voice over to work? Maybe I misunderstood but I thought there would be voice acting in addition to the DLC, but when I run it nothing it added.
the voice acting is coming next year i think
Hmm...
thank you! this looks great. will the adult patch be included in steam release?
https://steamcommunity.com/app/2415010#scrollTop=100 This should be a link to the adult patch on steam.
If not, just check the community tab on ADWD it should be on there as well.
Thank you!
Debo resistir, no debo gastar dinero, todo por mi tableta gráfica ahhhh
hello, I have a question about the adult patch.
!!!SPOILERS AHEAD!!
I play as female (body type 1, she/her pronouns etc) but towards the end we have an optional NSFW scene in Grim's room and apparently the game treats me like a male? I don't know how to change it or why is the option showing if there isn't a female option for this particular moment. Dunno if it's a bug.
It sounds like you picked the wrong options in the first NSFW scene where you select what parts your character has. Please go back to that choice when you get the chance and double check.
Im having this issue too on steam, the first NSFW scene is when your first at his apartment right? If not please let me know!! I tried picking both options there and it still treats me as a male.. I even double checked to make sure everything was good on my profile. Help please!!
No, the first is at your own apartment, and it will give you options to choose what happens in the second one.
A reply to both of these - this would only happen if you skipped the first scene or didn't select the correct options in the first scene. I'll be putting out an update for both Beyond the Bet and the NSFW patch shortly so you cannot get the second scene without doing the first one, so please download it when it's available.
Ah okay! Thank you so much :D (Loving the game btw I really appreciate the work put into it!)
Oh. I didn't play through the first scene at all. That's why! Thank you. The game is absolutely amazing btw <3
🤍ENDING 6 - BLOOM🖤
