You are on a spaceship drifting through space.
Among the crew are a mysterious and deadly threat known as the “Gnosia”, who disguise themselves as humans while attacking and eliminating one crew member every night. The crew formulates a desperate plan for survival, in which the most suspicious among them will be put into “cold sleep” one by one, in an effort to rid the ship of Gnosia.
As the player, you can be on either side—human or Gnosia. as a human, your goal would be to find all of the Gnosia and vote to put them all into cold sleep. As a Gnosia, your goal would be to eliminate crew members every night, until the Gnosia outnumber the humans.
You progress through the story over numerous “loops”, each loop a game of werewolf that lasts around 15 minutes each.
At the start of each game, you and every other crew member will be assigned roles, such as “Crew” or “Gnosia”. Characters will speak and act freely depending on factors such as their current role, their personalities, parameters, and level of trust towards you and other crew members.
Each character has their own quirks and principles, resulting in colorful debates and discussions that make each loop as entertaining as the last.
