What players say

Players describe I Am Dead as a gentle, slow-paced puzzle game with a warm story about memory and legacy. The core gameplay, searching for hidden objects by peeling apart scenes, is creative but many find it repetitive and boring for long sessions. The game is short and its ending leaves some players wanting more closure.
