I really enjoyed the concept and execution. The visual style is fantastic, reminiscent of a sinister Victorian motif, much like Fear and Hunger. The musical composition also adds to the tension perfectly. My only suggestion would be that this project could greatly benefit from an introduction (even just in text form). With visuals and narrative of this quality, it truly deserves an introductory "cutscene"

Developer

Thank you for the kind words! Intro cutscene was our №1 priority before release, but we just ran out of time. Fun fact, metamorphosis from day 3 were inspired from f&h 2 termina :)

Got a distinct "Paper's please" vibe. A very interesting interpretation. I did get softlocked once after day 2, where I drew a card on a masked person who I usually indiscriminately let in to the king, and it made the next person invisible and I couldn't click through. Went back though and didn't find the problem again. I think that one of the best parts is the character artwork. That charcoal/ink look that's really hard to pull off. Oh, and I hope I never live under a system of governance that relies on Tarot haha. Thanks for the plays!

I second this. on day 2,  I let in all the masked people into the king's chamber and it softlocked and made the next character invisible.

I like the game concept but I think I broke it, after day 3 people just stopped talking and it went on forever until day 8 where everything stopped working. The graphics and theme are impressive but there is definitely a lack of variety or consequence depending on your choices

Thank you for your feedback. After 3rd day there's supposed to be an ending, that depends on your choices in day 1-3. For some reason sometimes it justs doesn't show the ending and go on endlessly, sorry bout that

I really enjoyed this mix of themes and mechanics, the masked people are mysteriously captivating and the Day 3 artwork really pulls the entire vibe together. Did a couple playthroughs for different endings, overall excellent work!

Developer

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed
