They want to keep you bound in the dark, but you won't let them. You will get out, fight and flee, fail and die, then try again and again...

Grudges must always be the first to die when a storm arrives.

After years away you return home to your dying father, but will you be able to get your brother to forgive you for leaving? And will you step up to the challenge to inherit your father's most prized possession?

Written as part of the 2023 Spring/Summer Contest: Gone Fishin' it is a game with a much bigger focus on story than gameplay, but still there is a decent amount of endings and variation for something this short.

It's always an option to abstain from voting in games like this. Especially early on it's a good idea since voting blind most likely will result in killing a good teammate.

"This again? Is there anyone else who wants to accuse me for the fun of it? You know what? Two can play at that game. I say we throw Malk to the alligators to eat. That way he will at least make himself of use before this twisted game is over."

"That accusation is even more ridiculous than that of the now deceased woman who's ramblings you take as gospel!" I proclaim after slamming shut another cupboard in the process of searching of any kind of food, then turn towards Liminal. "For starters, even if I was capable of killing her it would be foolish of me to do that right after being accused. And even that is a moot point since it is physically impossible for me to have killed her and Ben in a single stroke. A double kill like that is only possible by the Chaotic Mod, which I am certainly not. Now, it could also be the result of an attack by a Triggered Troll, but as we just heard the soul of poor Ben cry out that could not be the case. The only other possibility for her death is the Productive CYStian, but that I also doubt considering 3 people died so one of those must've been a double kill, which again is something only resulting from either Chaotic Mod's ability or Triggered Troll's. So the next time think before you accuse someone out of your ass." With a sigh I finally fall down onto a chair, and realize I still have the potion left for me by the bunny. "I vote we revive Avo, better her than those not clear of mind or those wishing for Grim's final embrace."

Science-fantasy isn't an edutainment thing, it's a science-fiction thing specifically. Edutainment is a category completely separate from genres like fantasy, sci-fi etc.

There's this less known by name genre called "science-fantasy" which is a subgenre of sci-fi. It can often be confusing to people unaware of the term. Star wars and Warhammer 40k are both in that category

Just be mindful of using really dark colors that will end up blending into a black background.

To do things like color text you need to do some more advanced html using the style parameter. Here's a basic guide to colors specifically, but you can do a lot more with style like alignment, fonts and text size: https://www.w3schools.com/html/html_colors.asp

Confused by the sudden twist of events I try to recall if I even did anything since arriving here. Then again I don't feel like I need to worry about random, rather baseless accusations. Perhaps the madwoman saw into the multiverse and glances upon an alternate version of me that did something unbecoming, like giving an unfavorable review.

Blame the contest on this being a bump after 4 months. And from what I heard she also deleted her better storygames.
