Today I Die is a short puzzle video game developed and published by Daniel Benmergui as a browser game on 2009-05-06. It was originally programmed in Flash. There appears to have been an iOS port, but it is no longer available.
The game opens on a drowned woman with a poem above her. You are able to move around various words in the poem to adjust the setting of the game. In each new setting there is a different obstacle to overcome.

I found this game online shortly after it came out because I was already a fan of Benmergui's earlier game, I Wish I Were the Moon.

Good
- The story begins as depressing, but unfolds to be pleasant and happy.
- The game is attractive looking. There is a good use of color palette and the pixel art is nice.
- The change of music adds a lot to the mood.
Bad
- Nothing.
Ugly
- The game is too short. Even without any knowledge, it can be finished in about three minutes.
