Awesome stuff! It was fun and I absolutely loved the concept. It was def a bit confusing at first tho, and I think if this were to be turned into a fuller game that introducing mechanics slowly one at a time could help. I still don't get what the papers do! Great stuff overall tho, I really liked it!

Developer

Thank you a lot for your great feedback. The papers are supposed to give valueable information about who the Assasins are. Unless an Assasin reads them. Then they will just give you wrong or non-sense informations.

You are absolutely right - we will definetly put some more time into educating players about the mechanics.

Amazing concept! The game is really fun to play. I love the unique combination of detective work and turn-based strategy with limited resources.

The visuals are great too—you've made an awesome project! 

Developer

Thank you for the kind words. That really made me smile and feel good <3

Really great concept - I liked the style, interactions between board mechanics, and I love the personality infused into the descriptions of the soldiers. The controls on Web are a little wonky with the selection changing with any click. I'm very much looking forward to trying the Windows build. I could see this being expanded to something amazingly satisfying with a smoother control scheme, maybe even for a gamepad. Very nicely done.

Great concept, I liked the idea of limiting the number of moves with food, it sounds quite logical. It would have been nice to somehow label the soldier you choose to move and the different sounds, but those are minor things. Really liked the design of the game, the color scheme, the font, everything perfectly complements the good gameplay.

nice art, cool concept but very limited execution, could def be toned down to be easier too
lacking some sounds or music, and the ration system dont really fit prerequisite as it only goes down when you move while time is constantly moving

also for the theme of defense, the king is kinda defenswless lmao and at the mercy of your actions which i guess do counts, love the jokes

Thank you for your feedback. A full version including shaders, particle effects, original music and SFX is available to download. To avoid lag and frame drops due to the limited capacity of GPU/CPU, when running on Itch, we deployed a simplified Web build.
