This was a really cool idea. I didn't think removing all the text and using only emoji's would change the gameplay that much, but it totally does. Deciphering what people are saying is in itself a puzzle. And because I was left to decipher everything I could make up my own story along the way. Very Good job. Also, I recommend you play this in a browser otherwise some the emoji might not work.

A text adventure with no text but emojis instead. I beat the game (killed the dragon) and it was frustrating but it did follow marks topic very well and felt as fair as it could be. I got extremely lost finding the bomb, forgot how I found the money to buy the bomb but what ever it was I game so close to shutting it down. The alien secret was fun but i feel like i missed a secret. Because even after beating the game one of the vampires is mad with the church and something about a document? how do I do that quest? is it a secret or a hint? I talk to the church guy with the book and I don't understand him. Anyways sweet game I hope it gets included. I spent a lot of time trying to beat this one!
The puzzle isn't the puzzles themselves it's trying to figure out what everything means
