I liked the plot and the memes. Also the joke about killing God was pretty good. I also like how there wasn't really a "Good side" so the story was really about slaying the greater of two evils. I think expanding the story (Which seems to be your biggest strength here) and adding unique combination orders of talking to people produce new outcomes or solutions (Maybe after talking to everyone Algo realizes that ruling the world isn't that great and decides to take your place sitting on the couch watching tv and scrolling memes)

Also a visual reprentation of "having the mace of doom" would be good, It probably would fix where people talk to algoricus and immediatly run into the "you cannot kill god "feature""

Pretty nice! Sound effects would add a lot, especially like a “pip pip pip” as the dialogue text appears. I would also add an option to skip text, for when you’re talking to Aligoricus the third time :)
