At the time of writing, this game has no gameplay screenshots, only one one-word comment, a 2-star rating, and there's no other information about it anywhere out on the 'net. This makes me sad because it means that most people coming here will assume it's a bad game and pass it over. It's most certainly not a bad game though! Here's a short review so you can have a better idea of what to expect.
First of all, the worst part is the art. The backgrounds are AI generated. The character art is good enough, but all the characters are the same base with only different clothes and hair. The rest of the art is... well, at least it's clearly made by a human.
The writing on the other hand is good, despite having quite a few spelling mistakes. Really good in fact. Even though I'm not much of a fan of visual novels, this one had me so engrossed that I put in the effort to hunt down every possible ending, of which there are 15, plus a few others that aren't counted (like if you fail so badly you die). The characters all have distinct and believable personalities (Coffee-chan is my favourite). There are a lot of meaningful choices to make, and there are a large number of wildly different paths through the game. There is a lot of humorous fourth-wall breaking.
Although there are romantic endings for some of the charaters, I don't think the "dating simulator" tag fits.
And that's it. You should definitely play "A Peppering Of Death". And learn how to use scissors.
Thanks for putting in the time to write this. It was my first game and I made it mostly for a small collection of online friends but I'm so glad others people read and enjoyed my game. This is sweet 😭 ty
