There's a solo journalling option to the game, and I went through the steps to do that as I read through it. So this is somewhere in between a read-through and a full playthrough.

Leopards Eat Your Face 📖 'I never thought leopards would eat MY face,' sobs woman who voted for the Leopards Eating People's Faces Party. – Adrian Bott

Leopards Eat Your Face 📖

"It's hard to understand the subtle creep of fascism. Those who regularly vote for their governments to get rid of waste rarely realise that they are the 'waste' the fascists are talking about."

If we didn't reply to you today when you sent in a request to review your #indiettrpg, it's either because we're a bit swamped by the outpouring of interest or we hold a deep dark grudge against you for some imagined slight.

And there's no way for you to know which.
