!! This game provides examples of:
* AdaptationExpansion: The [[http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/today-i-die-again/id392646414?mt=8 iPhone version]] changes some of the scenes and has a little build-your-own-poetry mini-game.
* BizarrePuzzleGame: ''TodayIDie'' is one of these, and a beautiful one at that.
* DisappearsIntoLight: Subverted. The Disappear is the protagonist's return from suicidal depression.
* DrivenToSuicide: [[spoiler:The whole point of the game seems to be to prevent this from happening.]]
* EarnYourHappyEnding: The protagonist must fight her way through the shades of herself, swimming with a rock tied around her waist.
* LightEmUp: Your main 'weapon' throughout the game.
* MadLibsCatchPhrase: This forms the skeleton for the game's poem:
--> "[adjective] world
--> "full of [nouns]"
--> "today I [verb]"
* MultipleEndings: The protagonist can swim away with a young man, or on her own.
* ThePowerOfLove: In one of the possible endings, the protagonist swims away with a young man.
