Very good game. Especially considering that it was made in 48 hours, this is extremely impressive. At first everything seems normal, but scary sounds and a frightening atmosphere take their toll, and the sudden twist of the plot surprised. I'm sorry that I didn't catch the game on release, but it's worth playing anyway. The only thing I wish your actions in the game had more influence on the ending than just the final choice, but anyway, for such short term it can be forgiven. This is definitely a good horror, I like it
A great game! Truly the scariest game I've played because what's scarier then doing taxes. It's a very surprising game and if you havnt played it yet you definitely should play it!
This game has SO MUCH potential. I was just watching JackSepticEye play this and idea we’re zooming through my head.
Since taxes are yearly, imagine if you stated at 18 and ended at 60 and aged up each time u went through your taxes.
Taxes change as you get older, as you get married, as you have kids, as you own a house, as you own a car, as you get promoted or demoted. As you get an education or make donations.
In between stacks of mail you have life choices to make that effect next years taxes. You can be honest and do your taxes accurately or you can fudge them and hope not to be audited and/or go to jail. Game over. You can hope you don’t get caught embezzling at your work or else, game over. You could owe in taxes and get your wages garnished until you have nothing left. Game over. You could skip child support until they take you to court and you owe more than you have. Game over.
You can fall for scam mail and get your identity stolen. You could skip car payment, light bills, cell phone bills, trying to save money and risking consequence.
This game can go so much further than what it is. SO MUCH further and for a price! I’d pay to play that game! Someone run with it, please!
Gosh, what a marvelous little game. It looks and feels so polished and thought-through and I love that it’s such a simple idea executed perfectly. Just all in all a great idea delivered on a silver plate with a cherry on top :)
1. Download the Windows version. 2. Get a Crossover. (Crossover is paid, so maybe you could try Wineskin Winery, but Crossover is more stable.) 3. While opened crossover, press Command+O. 4. Choose "A game about your literally doing your taxes.exe" in a folder. Run it.
It should work fine. At least try it. one more thing, you can get Free trial of Crossover too.

A game about doing your taxes and nothing else 💰

Tax evasion is not a joke.
Literally the scariest horror game i ever played. Good job
I downloaded this game and got a idp.generic file which google and my antivirus says is malicious. Idk what this is, good game though.
This was suprisingly really good!
It had a twist that was so unexpected but made is so much fun!
I haven’t a clue what I experienced, but I did.
A nifty game with an unexpected twist! Very well done! I love the art style as well and 100% admit to being startled by the jumpscare! Great work!
I love spiraling down into insanity due to the United States government! Good game.
Love this art style! Also, this really reminded me of Papers Please, so that's great!
