The Lesser Evil

https://jontopielski.itch.io/the-lesser-evil

Survive 10 nights, each painstakingly harder as you get to pick a curse for yourself! 21 unique game-wrecking curse cards, extra palettes, and 4 difficulty modes to choose from~

You are a small frog. You're trapped in a box, but you won't be alone for long. There are ... things that will materialize inside the box with you. Things that will chase you. Things that will fire projectiles at you. Things that seem to work together against you, to force you into a corner, to ...

Fortunately, you have a flashlight, and its light has a lethal effect upon your pursuers. As long as its battery lasts, anyway. It'll recharge, but that takes precious seconds you don't have.

As if that weren't enough, the evil of the presence around you will inflict curse after curse upon you -- a new curse for each of the ten nights you'll be trapped here. It might be as minor as a torrential rainstorm. It might be as major as making your flashlight beam invisible or causing you to lose lives at double the rate.

To make things crueler, you must choose the new curse each night from two terrible options. Can you discern the lesser evil?

The Lesser Evil is demanding on Easy mode, with thirty lives and only casual pursuit. There are three higher difficulty levels that'll make you wish you stayed a tadpole.
