The gameplay in "Your Turn to Die" is a blend of point-and-click adventure, logic puzzles, and mini-games reminiscent of titles like Danganronpa and Zero Escape, offering a mix of engaging mechanics and character-driven storytelling.

- “I really love the argument and discussion mechanics as well; they're super well done, and they honestly have really interesting implications.”
- “Gameplay is a mix of point-and-click adventure, escape the room puzzles, and 'find the contradiction' (Ace Attorney/Danganronpa).”
- “The trial mechanics are very good and also a good difficulty, as they make the player actually think and put pieces together on their own rather than being prompted for everything.”
- “My biggest gripe would be that there are times of tedium in the game where there are no gameplay aspects or discovery to be had besides trying to figure out where exactly to go or what exactly to do to progress in the story, and it really kills the mood sometimes.”
- “Certain core mechanics you'd learn would suddenly disappear in the next chapter.”
- “There's also minor hiccups with the gameplay: some janky minigames and some slightly unintuitive navigation in the Ace Attorney trilogy style.”

optimization

The game's optimization is notably lacking, particularly when it comes to resolution scaling; attempting to play at higher resolutions can lead to poor performance and visual quality. Players are advised to stick with the default small window for optimal performance, especially during critical gameplay moments like minigames. Despite these technical issues, the character dialogue adds a lively element to the experience.
- “If you're going to play the game, I would recommend just using the small window it starts as for the best performance (which does matter on floor 2's minigames).”
- “For instance, without plugins, if you make a game for the resolution of 800×600 but try to resize the screen to 1920x1080, the internal resolution is still stuck at 800x600, which results in lower quality and lower performance as the game engine struggles to resize assets on the fly.”
