Disclaimer: This game was made for the Cosmic Horrors Jam as a solo dev. Game was a bit rushed around the end as I had no time to finish it.
Play as an Eldritch God and conquer the city by using your powerful cards to warp those mortals' minds.
How to Play?
- The game cycle through night and day (you can pause and unpause whenever you want with space):
- During the day, you draw 3 cards from your deck. You can play as many as you want.
- During the night, you get your first contact's cards, you can play only one to shift the game in your favour.
- At the end of the night, 0.5 Suspicion is lost. A good rest makes your worries go away after all.
- Your goal is to corrupt all citizen in the city. To do so, you'll need to bring down their Mental Strength down to 0 or make them fully Insane.
- Making someone Insane has a cost, though. After all, someone sane going crazy overnight is weird. When someone goes Insane, all their friends will generate 3 suspicion points.
- Beware, for the crusade is guarding this city. If your suspicion goes too high, a crusader will pop up to find and kill the corrupted ones. More will appear the more suspicion you accumulated.
Game is in Development
As I mentioned in the Disclaimer, this game hasn't been finished. I am a sole student and worked on the jam during my free time (when I had such).
Profiles and Buildings are placeholders.
A leveling up system based on how many people you corrupted is being made for next update (v0.4a).
Game might need better balancing.
Feedback is appreciated
