It takes decorum to deal in lives.

In Soul Searching you play as Grim, who has taken on the role of Grim Reaper from his father. In order to survive as the reaper, you need to harvest lives from the village above. But how do you decide on who is ready to die? Soul searching asks you to converse with the village folk and ask yourself that question. You may even feel those who are ill deserve a second chance. You have the power to give that to them.

Controls:

LEFT ARROW = MOVE LEFT
RIGHT ARROW = MOVE RIGHT
UP ARROW = JUMP
X = USE SCYTHE
C = TOGGLE TAKE LIFE/GIVE LIFE
T = START DIALOGUE

Instructions:
Once the purple timer empties, you will lose one of your own lives.

You are encouraged to talk to the villagers as much as you can to determine who is ready to die.

By pressing X over a villager when you are in "black heart mode" you gain their life.

If you want to give lives to villagers who are dieing then toggle "C" to "red heart mode" and then press X over them.

Oh, and don't fall.
