If you love Among Us/Mafia/Werewolf, you'll love this game. The gameplay loop is simple but addicting. The story is non-linear but in order to complete the game you'll have to see all of the story events eventually. The order though is going to be different for everybody! Finding the true ending makes you feel like a genius. Understand?

This game is a single player werewolf/amongus simulator, and it's A BLAST!!! ...if you're the sort of person who plays your games slow. Gnosia relies on repeated, focused thought about the mechanical nuances of its characters in order for their characters to feel real, and you'll only get that experience if you meet Gnosia at its own pace. Having an IRL notebook is a HUGE recommend! I also think it's best to only look up walkthroughs sparingly. Gnosia was the first game I ever played with a pencil and paper! I spent about 100 hours keeping track of world lore information, making theories, and crossing out disproved thoughts as I went. I spent about 100 hours immersing myself, creating the character I was playing as in my head as I went, and learning the personalities/game habits of the cast. I spent about 100 hours in my notes, trying to figure out the right people to vote in each and every round of this game. I had a fantastic time!! And for me all of Gnosia's emotional beats and surprise twists had the impact its devs were hoping. Then I showed the game to my friend! They blasted through in roughly 20 hours without nary a note in sight, spamming and clicking through rounds of the game blindly in order to unlock all the character scenes. By the end, they said the game wasn't a very good one. I pretended to agree. Does Gnosia's plot have flaws? Yes Is Gnosia's gameplay repetitive? Sort of, yes Are Gnosia's characters well written all the time? Definitely No But if you give Gnosia your time and your focus, the game will come to life regardless, and its characters will stay with you too. If notetaking or slow gaming is your jam, I don't think you'll regret picking Gnosia up!

Time-loop amogus zero escape roguelite. An unusual blend but it works. You get to know the characters very well as you deceive and are deceived by them time and time again. It feels like a sincerely made game, with a good heart. Props to the devs for the AI feeling just as smart or as stupid as the characters are supposed to be.

TL;DR if you enjoy mystery games, slow burners, social deduction without the social anxiety, and are okay with the non-linear structure, then I strongly recommend this game. The first thing to keep in mind about Gnosia is that the storyline is not played in a standard linear fashion; it is non-linear. If you came from a game like Raging Loop, just know that this game is completely different in terms of structure. This structure will not be for everyone. However, it definitely was for me. The gameplay loop is basically you playing different matches of a social deduction game (think Werewolf/Mafia/Among Us/Town of Salem), where every match the game assigns roles to the characters randomly. The game calls each match a "loop" and the game has a scripted tutorial at the start, which takes around 15 loops or so. The game's story comes in the form of scripted events that occur when certain conditions are met during these loops (i.e. Character A is Gnosia and Character B is human and is alive). Think of these events as puzzle pieces that will allow you to piece together the overarching narrative. These events will answer some things, yet some will also create more questions, encouraging the player to play more to piece these mysteries together. When you get enough events, certain more important ones will trigger that progresses the story, which will eventually allow you to get the ending. Keep in mind that the events for this game can be tricky to trigger, so take a look at the spoiler-free guide on the wiki. One of the strengths of this game is the way it encourages the player to analyze how the characters act during these loops. Characters will have certain behaviors and strategies that can change depending on whether they're Gnosia or human. For example, Comet is excellent at spotting lies, and as a human her average strategy will be to aggressively push liars she catches. There is another character, that as a human, will literally just defend people he likes with no logic behind it. A brief note about the drawbacks Once again, getting the events to trigger can be tricky and can take a while. Keep in mind that everyone's playthrough will be different and your mileage may vary. While attempting to get these events, you may find yourself eventually speed reading the daily debates in order to accomplish the conditions for events you want to see. As the dialogue during the daily debates are reused in the loops (i.e. 'What is the purpose of your lies Character A?' or 'No, we can't eliminate Character A now'), you will begin to see the same lines during these daily debates. This didn't really bother me though, since the lines used differ based on trust levels and can give you information on how much the characters trust you and how much they trust other characters. Also, event dialogue is unique. Anyways, if you read this far and it sounds appealing, go for it.
