Here's Hannah (that's me) giving a demo of conversation in Mandrake!
In Mandrake, your choices (at character creation and in gameplay) will change the tenor of conversations with your neighbours. Will you be a haughty Doubter, or a good Neighbour?
We'll never lock you out of stories this way, but hopefully offer you a depth and breadth of choices that's unusual in a rural life sim.
If you've watched the video, what do you think of this kind of responsive story?
