Castle Isolation by Diccuric_Sigeon
Once, there was one little castle run by a princess. Her servants loved the princess and served her with faith and truth. But hard times came, food became less, and on the lands of the princess came disease. And now they are forced to hide in the castle, waiting for the moment when the gods will help them and defeat the disease or until they take it with them.

This is a pretty good take on the theme!
I like the pixel art a lot! (My tip: if you get back on working on this game, remake the buttons and perhaps even the background, and use a more pixelated font for the Day counter, the money counter, and the buttons, I think you should make something that blends in more with the pixel art style of this game!)
The gameplay is nice but could get a little bit more clarifications (i-e, I'd recommand making a small tutorial uwu)
The music and sound effects are great (Maybe add sound effects for when you click on a character or a button, just to get some more user feedback)
Overall, pretty enjoyable game, I had a nice time playing it!

It took me a bit to fully understand the mechanic, maybe add an interactive tutorial?
It would be great to have a legend for the icons more accessible since it is such a big part of the gameplay.
Anyway, really enjoyed it!
For instance, events which only affect one of the characters. They might get injured, go on a quest on their own, get some kind of a boost, require something special (which another character can work on). Less generally of course, you'd have to come up with quite a few specifics for these sort of events. You get the gist.
Ok work!
Would like to directly see characters' status, instead of clicking everyone everyday.
Overall, nice bit of resource management with great art and soothing music!
