- This game is very nice and a pleasant experience to play! The animations are stylistic and well executed, the UI is intuitive and responsive, and the concept is very fun and cool. The mechanics of corruption and suspicion however are not enough on their own to create a compelling gameplay loop, there is something missing. Perhaps there could be an action limit or a ramping up of suspicion gain over time, as it stands it is actually very difficult to lose. Choosing random options is more than sufficient to win. Additionally, the text can be a little hard to read. The font is fitting with the style but could benefit from being a little larger in places. Overall the general "vibe" of this game is very good, with excellent art, fitting music, strong writing, and a tangible sense of style. A very impressive Proof of Concept!

Yes
Summarise your game!
You play as a cursed ring who is trying to corrupt its wielder. You influence your wielder's actions to make them act in ways they normally wouldn't, leading to more and more corruption. However, they will grow suspicious of your influence if you force them to act too strangely. If they become too suspicious, they will discard you.
Please explain how your game fits the theme:
Instead of a more traditional weapon like a gun, sword, and so on, I went with a subtle weapon, inspired by THE weapon in The Lord of the Rings: the one ring. What would it be like to play as the one ring and corrupt your wearer?
Is there anything you'd like the judges to pay particular attention to?
NA
