You could say the side effects for this game are technically intended since the goal is to try and cause as many side effects as possible, though I guess the unintended side effects are the courses that DON'T kill any guests. Also gotta wonder why anyone stuck around after the first course or two XD

I think the game would be more engaging if instead of random poisons, the components you add are various toppings and mixing a weird topping with a food dish it would go terrible with is how the guests meet their demise. For example, extra spice to an already spicy butter chicken dish, sardines with ice-cream, peanut butter to clam chowder etc..

I like those ideas! Thanks for the feedback.

Simple, but I must admit, I just kept playing this one over and over. Even then, highest I got was 68%.

My morbid mind just keeps wondering what the story here is with me just dumping random poisons into meals to see how many people I can kill. Doesn't feel that dark when you're actually playing though.

Is there a way to restart? I just kept refreshing the page.

Thank you for such a positive response! Unfortunately, there  is no way to restart. I ran into a time crunch and had to drop some functionalities and features that perhaps would have spiced it up.

This seems fun but I think it needs a rule or strategy explanation because I really have no idea what I'm doing :p

Thank you for the feedback! I had hoped for a mafia style game as part, but could not get the functionality implemented before time ran out.
