Stranded in a fog-bound mountain village, a traveller is pulled into a ritual where wolves hide among the villagers, and death is not the end.
Who it's for: Mystery fans who enjoy social-deduction games like Werewolf/Mafia and like dying and retrying to uncover the truth.
The story (spoiler-free)
A young traveller ends up stranded in an isolated mountain village wrapped in fog. The locals start a strange old custom: a feast of the wolves, in which they must find and vote out the hidden killers among them.
When things go wrong, the protagonist wakes up again with his memories intact. Each failed attempt reveals more about the villagers, their beliefs and the rules of the game.
Routes unlock in a set order, and an in-game flowchart helps you jump back to key choices.
