Pretty cool! This game is clean and very enjoyable. I'd also like to say the base and the vibe of the game is so charming. I love it! 

Good job! Congrats. :D

the idea of the game was really smart and interesting, and it felt preatty good in terms of game feel and sound effects. good job

Very unique concept that play well. I found it to be a tad too hard as I kept having to go to next year multiple times just to complete one card, other than that I really liked it and think it can be expanded upon, well done!

Great game. I loved the story telling through game mechanics. I got an error after finishing what I think was the last ritual. Either way, I had a lot of fun and thirst for more.

This was so clever! The rules and gameplay clicked almost immediately, which is always a good sign. Good job!

Great game with amazing atmosphere! The gameplay, plus all the rituals and search for forbidden knowledge remind me of Cultist simulator. I really like how the character is represented through the dice and how you need to adjust your tactics throughout different stages of the game.

It crashed after I filled the 100 point card, so I haven't seen the conclusion, but it might as well be an open-ended story :)

Unique and very funny game! The music is really fitting and the game itself is addictive asf, with some more card variety and maybe different dice colors I could see myself playing many runs

Such an interesting game, got hooked until I won haha, I probably think because its a card game and I just love them.

Top notch game, incredible work, probably my favourite of the jam, I love cult-card games so much, this thoroughly satisfied my thirst for them

I’m not sure why but once I got to the final stage (the 100 point card) I suddenly ran out of dice? Guess I wasn’t the only one. It was pretty neat up until that point though there didn’t feel like there was much choice to the matter, so I didn’t really feel the theme come through. I liked the concept and vibe all in all though, there’s a great moment when you suddenly realize your thirst is growing out of control and you panic and scramble to get that together which really sells the feeling of being a vampire, not that I’d know of course…….

so overall I think minus the bug stopping me this was really solid! :)

Glad you had fun! The original idea was that you had limited dice to invest and branching research paths so there was a lot more risk involved but due to limited time I opted to make it a bit simpler. About the dice not appearing, I'm trying to figure it out as well as it does not appear in my play testing at all! Could you tell me the scenario this happens in and when the game stopped giving you dice, did you still hear the dice sound or was it just silence when you clicked next life?

Submitted

It was right after the 100 point card appeared, I’d click next turn, hear the sound of my thirsts injuring me, but not hear or see any dice.
