Please. A little bit recursion to make a longer gameplay available. 
That was SO nice and interesting. And simple (???).
Even as a board game. And tha drawings. Thank you. Beautiful experience.

Thank You and sorry for the late reply... I'm very glad You enjoyed the game. I'm not sure if it has enough depth to expand it though, so I probably won't keep working on it.

Fantastic! Ended up playing a few rounds, with a better score each time as I got to grips with the strategy. The gameplay loop was simple to get to grips with, but as each game progressed I found myself having to make increasingly difficult decisions. Sacrifices in particular felt appropriately impactful.

I'm a big fan of the art style, and especially those tiny character portraits which get so much personality out of a tiny number of lines. The little demons were also wonderful!

Sorry, I somehow forgot to reply. I just wanted to say I really appreciate Your comment! It's a pleasant surprise that someone cared to play the game multiple times. I'm also glad you liked the art, I'm not much of an artist.

I instantly fell in love with the concept. It is overall a good game. I would say the only thing I think it needs other than title screen, and an end screen, is a small tutorial round. The game is somewhat simple so it was still easy to understand. I also think sounds would be a great addition. For a jam game, ITS GREAT!

Thank You for Your suggestions and the kind words! The game definitely needs all these things, most importantly a tutorial, but I simply ran out of time. I'm glad you liked it though!

Cool  game. It took me a minute to get it worked out maybe a tutorial would be my only suggestion.  Fun game. Great job!

Developer

Thanks, glad you had fun! I agree that a tutorial would be a good idea. Maybe I will add one if I have time.

This is an insanely cool concept and the simplicity of the art style makes this entry feel really elegant. It took me a minute to get my bearings within the game but once it made sense that I had to assign people to different circles it became really fun. Great job!

Developer

Thanks a lot for playing and voting, I'm glad you had fun!
