Visual Novel x Hidden Object - This one could really work!

This is neat. I rolled up an bequest from an angelic-demonic father-mother, in a neighbourhood of labyrinthine and haunted towers the ‘house’ is particularly ostentatious - and mobile.

Already there’s the idea that the ‘house’ was ‘parked’ there to conceal it, or to otherwise evade pursuers - although it clearly stands out from the crowd. Maybe whatever haunts the neighbourhood provides a double-edged sword of protection.

Perhaps the ‘house’ was set there long ago, and the other towers had built up around it. The player(s) want(s) to take the mobile tower for a spin, but first must diplomatically clear a way from the neighbourhood before flying/scuttling off - ramshackle towers all leaning on each other in a Kowloon Walled City style, some enemies are to be made when some are inevitably collapsed as the ‘house’ makes it’s slow way towards the city’s borders.

The biggest issue I can see is “what are ‘tins’?”, other than assuming they are an abstract currency that can be scavengened or otherwise earned through adventures and encounters, unless there is something I’m missing.

I really like this one. A good idea, well illustrated in the space provided.
