We had an idea similar to that where you could be solving task for people since they can't easily communicate. We left it off because we knew our limitations, trying to achieve that would be over scoping and we would not have a finished game to present for this game jam (now it still needs some polish but at least we finished), so we simplified the original idea a lot, but we are working on those ideas to improve the game. BTW, having some secrets and puzzles wouldn't be bad idea, I'm literally on discord with my teammate now and I'll discus this with him.
