Very neat game! I found the dynamic between Anubis and Seth quite interesting. Though at times I was lost as there were terms I don't know (I don't know much about Egyptian mythology, sadly!) I know that given the limitations of o2a2 adding something like a glossary would likely not be possible, so for what it's worth, I still enjoyed it a lot!

The art is beautiful and I really love Seth's eyes especially! I also found the way you describe what different areas of the body / face do quite interesting.

Will be fun to see what more you do with these characters!

I'm glad you liked playing!

Not having definitions for the ancient egyptian words was a risk I took, but thank you for the glossary idea. I definitely plan on highlighting those terms for future games set in this world--and it'll be a great way to help y'all understand more about the culture too :D
