Something is wrong with this city. The foul disease that grips these streets has always been here, but tonight this nameless evil threatens to consume all.

In the year 2043, lead a team of investigators across the city of Arkham, Massachusetts. Uncover foul plots, bring light to the shadows of back alleys, and unveil the mask of this long-storied city.

Combat is turn-based. Each investigator has multiple abilities they can use to defend themselves from the creatures of the night. Select abilities for each investigator, and click attack to resolve all the enemy and investigator actions.

Each ability uses energy tokens. Each turn, 6 energy tokens are pulled from a box that can be used for those abilities. The box contains tokens determined by your investigator's stats.

Good, well-made game with an interesting story. Could be better explained as the attacks get a bit confusing though.

Really well put together, great art - a bit of music would have really set the mood! Awesome submission!

Good job on the game, colors are a bit non-coherent in my opinion also gameplay gets pretty boring after a while because it's a turn-based game, adding some visual effects or unique game styles would make it better.

Quite well put together. A lot of interesting choices in the character selection and building. At first I didn't like that the characters didn't regen after each battle, but it started to grow on me as I realized the implications.

Really well made with some great art. Complexity and content included even though there was only a couple days in the Jam. Some audio/music is definitely needed to help maintain focus in the game, but I enjoyed it!

Wow, a very deep, complex game, with a variety of encounters, special abilities, and story. I really liked the art style. The combat was a little hard to manage - I didn't figure out how the tokens were represented for quite some time. I also couldn't read the left person's weapon (Mika) - I saw medigel in the investigator select screen. But this is a ton of features packed into a jam game. Very cool.

Interesting concept! I like the visuals and story. Could benefit from some music sounds and a bigger window size(did not know how to full screen).

Mate some sound would help sooo much. The text before combat is also kinda slow.

Other than that nice rpg setup
