FOR THE SWEET AS JAM 2025!

THE LIGHT REVEALS

A simple game of naughts and crosses. Easy right?... Or not?

With the Warden surveilling over you with his peckish eyes, play against your prison inmate for a chance to escape the cell while avoiding the Warden's Sabotage. 3 Wins and you escape - except it isn't that easy. 

Key Features:

Homemade

- All art assets and vfx are made in-house by yours trulys :)

GAMBLING!

- Gamble your hard-earned coins, predict the unpredictable and hope and pray that you can win.

Strategy

- Strategise against the warden and your opponent- play your cards and coins with thought, use them to your advantage.

Eerie Visuals

- In a dim-lit but well thought out environment, let the sounds and visuals truly immerse you into a tense game of naughts and crosses.

Gameloop:

  • Left click to place tile.
  • Opponent places tile.
  • Warden uses his torch to randomly select 2 tiles to either burn or flip.
  • Player can left click on card to play or right click to discard and earn coins.
  • Opponent plays/discards card.
  • Warden takes action.
  • Repeat until 3 in a row is achieved!

Card Types:

  • Shady BusinessWill disable the Wardens torch for the next round (the card description in the game incorrectly says it will affect the current round - call this another of the wardens tricks!)
  • Coin Flip: 50% chance to either gain or lose 5 gold
  • Look Away: 70% chance that the Warden will highlight only the opponents tiles on the next round
  • Tactician: Refreshes your hand. Gain some  gold from discarded cards.

Controls:

  • During the placing round, left click on the board to place your piece
  • During the card round, left click on a card to play it (this will cost you money as indicated by the cost value on the card)
  • Alternatively, right click to discard a card (this will gain money as indicated by the discard value on the card)
  • You cannot play a card if you do not have enough money! 
  • You will automatically draw a new card from the deck after your card phase. If the deck runs out, you will not be able to draw. If you run out of cards, good luck - you’ll have no defenses or attacks and will have to play by the Warden’s prison rules!
