This is beautiful. Every stage (the introduction, every chapter and the prompts) adds depth to the atmosphere and evocates a precise moment and mood for you to write about.
I love the concept of reutilizing a game as another with whole new mechanics and vibes, as I have been playing around the idea of making a narrative game using Quirkle. I didn't know about 7-Families before and you're making such a good use of the categories the card game already has that it blew my mind!
Rest assured your explanation is clear as I understood what to do at every step. I'll be definitely playing it soon.
I'm adding this on another comment so you can delete it if you want to, as it may relate to things you already edited:
-While reading the document I struggled understanding how to divide the deck into Daytime and Nocturne piles, but when I re-read your description on the itch page (under REQUIRES) it was crystal clear!
-The text below No-Fungus-no-Fun? prompts repeats the condition of the other type of prompts (Use one of these prompts when at least one of the family cards drawn is infected). It's still understandable because the document clearly explains when to answer each type of prompt under Drawing cards.
This doesn't looks like an alpha, this is so neat! I'm so in love with your game 🍄❤️
I think I already heard about quirkle but can't remember what this is, I never played to this as a kid (will check that this evening!). But 7-families is a classical kids cardgame here in France thus I guess it's all cultural.
Thanks also for this 2nd comment! Forgeting or deleting sentences is a big risk when translating (and wildly cut and past paragraphs) at nights with a tired brain! I'll correct the text soon at least in the itchio page prompts!
And while I'm admiring how you made such an impeccable work with a tired brain (I could never), I hope you have some nice quality night rest and take care! It's always a pleasure to read your games and zines 😄
