Is Time To Live worth it for you?
We tell you who should skip it, too.
Play it if you…
Good fit- Players who want a story-focused simulation built around a 30-day living arrangement
- Fans of branching narratives who want more than 20 possible endings

Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking action combat or a fast-paced game may bounce off the interaction-led structure
- Players wanting a single linear story may find the route-based design and more than 20 endings demanding
- Players uncomfortable with self-harm themes or inappropriate language should avoid it
Our take on Time To Live
The bounce point arrives when stress management becomes central: players must remove dangerous objects and shape pleasant memories while pursuing a route. Those seeking a conventional action game may leave at that point, since the core loop is domestic interaction, protection, and story discovery.
What is Time To Live?
Live with an unidentified woman for 30 days while trying to prevent her from dying and uncover her identity.
Interactions with items and furniture can improve abilities, recover memories, and affect each route's story. Manage her stress and remove dangerous objects before she can use them in a suicide attempt. The game includes more than 20 endings, with distinct stories for each route and occasional special experiences. Its visuals use 640x360 EGA graphics limited to 16 colors, accompanied by tracker-style music. The content includes inappropriate language and self-harm without CG depictions. A demo covers play through Day 10, with limited story progression and one available ending.
