What kind of game is Have A Nice Death?
Have A Nice Death is a roguelike game where the player controls Death on their quest to wrangle up their employees and get the back to work.
Mechanically, the game follows most roguelike trends with different power-ups and weapons that players can acquire. These reset at the end of every run, making every try at the game unique.
