Is this real gambling?

No. This game simulates gambling scenarios for educational and self-reflection purposes only. It is NOT real gambling and does not involve real money. If you or someone you know has gambling problems, please seek professional help.

How do I play the game?

Over 8 in-game hours, you manage 5 resources: Chips (currency), Stars (survival qualification), Mind (judgment quality), Reputation (NPC trust), and Stamina (action limits). You engage in limited RPS gambling with 12 cards (4 rock, 4 scissors, 4 paper), interact with 6 unique AI NPCs, and make moral choices that affect your ending.

What is the Mental State system?

Your mental state degrades over time. At low mind levels, your available options disappear, information becomes unreliable, and dangerous "impulse" buttons appear that can lead to risky decisions. Managing your Mind resource is critical to making sound judgments and surviving until the end.

What makes the NPCs unique?

The game features 6 AI-driven NPCs with distinct personalities: Conservative, Gambler, Mimic, Vengeful, Rational, and Broken. Each NPC makes decisions based on their personality traits, creating dynamic interactions. Reading their behavior and adapting your strategy is key to success.

How long does a full game last?

A complete playthrough covers 8 in-game hours from 18:00 to 02:00. Each in-game hour presents new events, gambling opportunities, and NPC interactions. A typical session takes about 20–40 minutes depending on your playstyle and how thoroughly you explore the narrative branches.
