The Demo Checklist, also knows as "challenges", is a list of achievements that the player can strive to complete by eliminating rivals and other things in as many different ways as possible.
It was first introduced in YandereDev's video, "Drowning, Bathrooms, and Easter Eggs". YandereDev states that he wishes for Yandere Simulator to be "a game that people are able to replay over and over, to explore every possible way to dispose of rivals, and hunt for every secret."
The player can access the Demo Checklist through the title screen.
In the new challenge menu, renamed into demo checklist, the challenges are displayed in 3x8 grid. The challenges are all shown as dark silhouettes. Whenever a challenge is completed, the player can view it in color.[1]
The challenges are:
Attack Elimination Kill a rival by directly attacking her with a weapon.
Befriend Elimination Solve a rival's personal problems and then befriend her in your home.
Betray Elimination Solve a rival's personal problem and then drug her tea in your home.

The original challenge menu was added in the June 16th, 2015 Build. It could be accessed from the calendar screen. This menu existed to convey the concept of a challenge menu and thus none of the challenges were implemented. The challenges were separated into two parts: weapons and elimination methods.
There will be one achievement dedicated to eliminating all rivals using the same method.[2]
The girl who appears in the Challenges screen is Rival-chan. Originally it was Osana Najimi's design, but it was changed because she looked too cute for a tsundere. Despite that, she was in the game for many years, although the player could not interact with her in any way.
In the future, it is possible that after every challenge is unlocked, the player will receive a cheat code.[3]
The sprite art was inspired by the game Long Live The Queen, where each possible death of the main character is depicted with a similar style of graphics.[4]
