What is Death?

A philosophical visual novel exploring the nature of death through dialogue with a gravedigger. The protagonist, seeking to understand what death truly means, visits a cemetery in a city and encounters a woman who has served as its sole gravedigger, witnessing life and death in her work. Through quiet conversation, she shares her personal reflections on mortality—why death exists, what happens after death, and whether eternal life is possible—drawing on the timeless anxieties humans have carried throughout history. The gravedigger offers no absolute answers, only her own perspective on life and death, but her words invite the protagonist and player alike to reconsider the finite nature of existence in a modern world where death has become distant and invisible. Playthrough takes roughly 40–60 minutes; it is a linear visual novel with no branching choices.
