About Sara and Death

Unwilling to accept her death at such an early age, Sara challenges Death to play a game. “The condition is that you let me live for as long as I can play”. Death accepts the challenge, and so the game begins.

Inspiration came from an old movie by Ingmar Bergman – The Seventh Seal – and by Sara herself. Sara does exist, I met her when I was studying philosophy mistaking her for another old friend. By chance; best way to find a new friend indeed. Here she plays as my alter ego and the game is about love. Yet it is not a love story. It is an existential catch on love.
In a later stage of development I decided to ask Sara to be the illustrator. She shared my same doubts about love, she did a stunning job and inspired major design changes.

Sara And Death is not addictive nor is it brainless fun. I wanted it to be difficult, deceptive, with a deep story. Something you should savour like a fine desert, not devour like a bag of chips. You will have to learn by experimenting and thinking. Sometimes it is for intuitive thinkers, sometimes for those who like plan three moves ahead, sometimes both.

The first part of Sara And Death is free: 3 chapters of the story and 13 puzzles. If you liked part one, there is an In App Purchase to unlock part two and support my work.
Enjoy.

Very simple game, kind of like lumines, dr. mario, to tie together some kinda pretty drawings. Not very deep or difficult.

The game was alright. You play a few quick rounds (5 minutes or so), then they want you to pay to keep playing. [ I understand that you do not want to use ads however, my issue is that you do not mention in the details that there are only a few levels available for free. If you add the word "demo", "trial", etc... then I would have rated the app based on other factors than my surprise that I had to pay for something that appeared to be free.]

I downloaded the game and got one screen in before it told me I had to rate it and share it before I could continue. Hard to know if I like it at this ridiculously early stage.

Interesting story, really challenging puzzles! Great game.

Playing this game has given me two things. The first is a philosophical, thought provoking story with and excellent soundtrack. The second component is the puzzle components. These are most impressive, anybody with an idea of tetras and columns will find it familiar. These challenges are much like slide grids. There are many varied challenges that will keep you plenty busy as you solve them. The difficulty rises gradually and becomes more challenging as you continue through the story. Loved the Art style.

I love indies. Decided to check this out on a tip from the developer via Twitter. Sara and Death is a uniquely engaging puzzler where we bear witness to a philosophical exchange, rewarded with the next few lines of dialogue by completing match-4+ puzzles. I like it. Play indie!

No ads?! Like, none! Fun game with nice artwork. I agree that some music would be nice during the puzzles.

Very nice game, it would be good if the piano played while in the puzzle sections rather than just the level selection. The storyline is nice and this could be a good game!
