Illumicati is a quirky card-based game where you play the role of a new initiate in a secret society. Manipulate a feline civil war between the Nyanists and Meowists to maintain perpetual conflict by balancing trust and resources. With charming pixel art, humorous narrative, and a cat-themed design, Illumicati is original, funny, and polished.

A cat game, jeah! This one looks amazing, the pixelart is so beautiful! The game idea is not completely new, but I really like the twist with the two parties and the war theme. Sometimes it was very hard to understand the consequences of the cards, but I think this is part of the game. I really like the trust mechanic, as this makes the decision making much harder. Maybe one detail to improve would be to also tilt the text of the card together with the card. At the moment it looks a bit detached.

Congratulations to this polished and beautiful game!

Really cute game and good story-telling! I did feel it was a bit hard to keep the balance (my best run was to spring of year 4), but overall great entry!

This is a fun game and it captures the theme of balance really well.

I think it would be good to show if the factions get more or less resources for each decision. Currently it's represented with circles if a resource is affected, but I can't tell if the resource in question will go up or down. Replacing the circles with little plus and minus symbols would fix this issue.

Overall, it's really good and reminds me of the game Reigns. Great job!

thank you for the feedback! initially we are trying to do that resource indicator, but we think it made the game too easy and maybe discourage people from reading the card itself, so in the end we goes against it, but it seems we been getting this same feedback, so again thank you!

And yea it is based on Reigns :D
