Padge Plays! YOLO Edition - The Shrouded Isle (2017 - Kitfox Games) The Shrouded Isle Gameplay P1
6Welcome to Padge Plays! YOLO Edition
In this episode we're leading a secluded village through to the end times while trying to keep them on the straight and narrow, (with the odd sacrifice) in The Shrouded Isle by Kitfox Games! You as the high priest are tasked with finding out who are the mortal sinners before our god Chernobog, (HAIL CHERNOBOG!!) brings about the end of the world in 5 years time. This is done by keep certain attributes of the village above a certain threshold as well as making sure the families don't turn against you. This is easier said than done, especially when you're expected to sacrifice somebody at the end of each season... the families tend to frown at that.
In part 1 I establish the rough rules of the game and try my best to explain what's going on and what's expected of me as high priest, as well as get our first couple of sacrifices out of the way! This game appears to get easier the further in you get as you start to discover each persons positive and negative traits so the first year in game is essential time to start finding those mortal sinners within each of the families... let's just hope we pick well and we find them early!
-- ABOUT THE GAME --
For the past 495 years, a secluded island village has adhered to bloody yet sacred traditions. They speak of a sleeping God beneath the waves, whose awakening shall birth a new era for the worthy.
In this cult manager, there are sinners aplenty, and not all are eager to confess. Each member of your community has 2 hidden traits - one virtuous, one heretical. If you’ve earned the favor of their House, you may investigate their reputation. Be alert as you may find strange occurrences among your devotees due to a new mysterious contagion. Ensure you lock the infected away and allow the salt water to wash away their sins. Otherwise, you may appoint them to your seasonal council and watch their work for clues.
Five powerful aristocratic families help maintain the village, seeking salvation through book burning, monument building, and heretical investigations. Choose one advisor from each family to assist in their ancient appointed task. However, every season, you must make the ultimate choice, designating a human sacrifice.
Closely examine your citizenry to find the best strategy for your people and beliefs, knowing that nobody wants their child sacrificed, even for the greater good.
When our Lord awakens, will He find you worthy?
- Families -
The five families of The Shrouded Isle each supervise a different aspect of the community. Be cautious, as their loyalties are fickle as the tide.
House Kegnni manages the farmlands of the village, and is charged with protecting the sacred ignorance of the community.
House Iosefka are the village builders, using carpentry and masonry to create grand structures that ensure our Fervor may never be extinguished.
House Efferson are the judges of our souls, wielding the whips that punish sinners and ensure Penitence. To confess to Vicar
House Cadwell carefully count the wealth of the village, made up primarily of merchants and miners, and enforce Discipline.
Everyone in the village dreads House Blackborn, the guards and enforcers of Obedience. Stories abound of the dungeons of Inquisitor Blackborn, but lawful, peace-keeping citizens have nothing to fear.
As the high priest, uncover and purge heretics to prepare for the awakening of your beloved god beneath the waves.
Now including the Sunken Sins expansion with a more robust inquiry system, lengthened campaign mode, and a new purification tower mechanic, cinematic ending, art, additional events, personality traits and… madness...?
