Nice game and good message. Very cute art style too.

Eu não leio rápido e tomei um coro heheheh mas achei show de mais a ideia =)


Parabéns e já estou na espera dos próximos...

A tad too on the nose with "Fake News", however, it's rather entertaining. There's..unless, I'm wrong, a false trigger on what the Leprosy question believes to be "buying into fake news"and there's some grammar to improve, but honestly, neatly put together game.

The reason there is bad grammer I belive is because of the original language has been translated into english so some of the grammer is incorrect as a result.

my favorite part of the game is how it managed to talk about fake news in such a funny, interactive and palpable way; my kudos to the creator(s)<3
