Gameplay Mechanics & Systems
It is possible to play solo or in cooperation. If there is no player connected, the game continues to run until a new player connects, always ready for you to join!
The game loops forever and transitions between two states: a "lobby" screen that players use to join the game, and a "game" screen to hunt for the glyphs.
Release & Industry Impact
Each glyph requires you to solve a riddle: from a list of four words, pick the odd one. A wrong answer and you are back to your tent! Good answer? You can get a number of points depending on the difficulty of the riddle.
The purpose of the game is to run forever on a shared screen. People passing by can join at anytime by scanning the code. They can also leave without interrupting the game.
