About this game
A 3D/2D board game about hunting killers and sacrificing others for your own survival. Manage your resources wisely and explore the 2D city to defeat the mad king in the 3D realm.
Each night, someone is guaranteed to die. Do your best to ensure it isn't you.
The game unfolds simultaneously in both 3D and 2D realms. Gather resources and interact with inhabitants in the 2D world to influence the events in the 3D one.
Your character is weak and heavily reliant on the people around you. You'll have to adapt when the king kills the most useful citizens at the most inopportune time.
You will have to sacrifice others to stay alive. There is no other way.
Can you unravel all the secrets of this small world to save the Princess and discover what she hides?
