You are enslaved by an eldritch entity. Manipulate stone cards to execute the ritual it needs. Maybe then it will finally let you go...

(Better in fullscreen)


Bug warning: If a card doesn't seem to register, try to drag outside of the altar then back

I got stuck on the level you see below, there are only 2 triangle cards, am I missing something? Regardless I adore these types of games and this was really well done! Will rate now, my fave of the jam so far

Hey ! I know this mechanic wasn't too well communicated, but a card can produce 2 symbols if you provide twice as much blood as needed ;) 
This is the last level btw, you get a little lore fluff and a different music if you finish it !

Thanks for playing !

Clever!  Neat mechanics--took me a little while to catch on.  (It might help if you can dismiss the "next ritual" box so you can examine what your current one looks like.)  It also didn't help that I was reading "goat" as "goal" and thought I was trying to get blood into the goat instead of out of it, but that's just my eyesight.

Yes I did put a 2sec delay between the end of level box and the win condition achieved but the speed of it makes it still hard to understand what you did right the first levels.

Thanks for playing !
