Pretty neat game, I liked the historical aspect of it and it made me learn some new things :)
I also really  enjoyed how the demons were drawn.

I like the historical theme. I think the obscurity is appropriate for the subject, and the art and music are good, too.

Thanks man really appreciate it :) Can you elaborate some more about the obscurity part? I didn't quite follow there

interesting game! i like the concept of having to question people to see if they're safe or not. i'm quite lazy though so i couldn't be bothered to open google to fact check... i'd recommend maybe having a booklet of info that the player can view to fact check the demons or people!

Thanks for playing :) The niche concept makes it so that 99% percent of people would have to google haha I am considering making a bigger game out of this concept where the knowledge you need is more general and not specific to a single culture.

Nice little game! I had problems figuring out who to save and what to pick, it isn't 100% clear but the art style is on point! I liked the idea from the neighbour game you mentioned, keep it up!

Really appreciate the time you spent on playing and writing the reply :) So basically you need to figure out if the newcomer's answers are true/false, and if they match the newcomer's knowledge. If you simply go by those metrics then you can usually be 75% sure if they're safe or not. There are ways to know for sure but you don't always get the right questions for that ;)

I think if you polish it some more, it could be a cool game you can sell for some bucks :) and i really love the simple art. It's a fresh wind with all the ai images out there lately..

Sure hope so! Would probably add in some extra mechanics like a shop you can use between rounds
