Choros
"These are not people. These are facades, hellbent on distracting you. These are animals, draped in human skin, wearing human faces; they try on each other’s eyes and snouts and snarl with glee when as they move in a mockery of man."
A Doctor, a Fiddler, an Aristocrat, a Drunk, and a Trickster are poised at the scene of the crime. A monster hidden behind ever-changing masks is responsible for the dead man sprawled at your feet. Pay attention to the chatter of the beasts as they gawk and gossip, to see who hides behind what facade, and uncover who the culprit is, and what face they wear now.

Wow!! I really love the art and writing style here. The music's also a great fit too - not too overbearing and sets the atmosphere.
The premise is quite interesting for those who like to work their deductive reasoning muscles - a whodunnit where you have to keep track of who goes where. Definitely took a few tries to get all the information I needed. Well done :D
The art is wonderful, and the story is engaging.
Mechanically, I liked the typewriter effect for the text. Your team did a fantastic job.
A really well-designed game. The graphics are stunning; you can tell that someone from the industry worked on them. The plot seems very original and fascinating; I can't wait to continue playing to discover new details. Finally, the atmosphere is really creepy and gives the game the right horror theme. Congratulations, I'm giving it five stars.
If you want to visit my page, I've just updated my horror game.
Bye, friend :)
