How To Play

q to open shapeshift menu.
(You must talk with people before being able to shapeshift into them.)

e to interact.

enter to choose - ws/updown arrows for next option

If you get along well with the townsfolk, you take less attention.
If you don't you take more.
If your attention bar gets full you get busted by police.

Also, shapeshifting causes an +10 suspicion penalty for the previous character.

Stole as much as you can by using the info of the people.
Explore the triangle people's lives.

An advice:
Take notes about people and their info.

Spoiler:
Not all characters tell the truth.

Notes:
I forgot to add "/games/" in the link. My bad, I fixed it now. Sorry, for the delay.
Fixed a super-minor bug that prevented entering houses.

Btw, the minimum Java requirement to play the game is 1.6
