About Conversations with Cannibals
In Conversations with Cannibals, you play a suspenseful survival puzzle game where your only defense is speech. You're stuck in a post-apocalyptic situation, and you have to read keywords, understand the character speaking to you, and make decisions fast enough to keep the conversation going.
Conversations With Cannibals: The Dialog Game
Conversations with Cannibals is a dialogue-based survival game about discourse, not fighting, where the player selects keywords to proceed. You're an injured survivor who can't just run away. So communication is your main means of influencing a dangerous cannibal deciding your fate. Each scene provides keywords to be used to mix them into concepts the other character wants to hear, to establish trust or create empathy.
The pressure is the time limit for each answer. A stun-gun energy bar is always recharging, so you have just a brief time to study the available phrases, grasp their meaning, and select the right combination. It takes one bad choice to end the conversation. But you learn more about the characters and the environment they live in when you fail.
Make Keywords Your Survival Instruments
The main gameplay of the game is based on terms that are displayed on the screen. You don't select whole lines of discussion; you put together ideas that work with the existing topic.
Create the Correct Meaning
One term can be advantageous in one case but hazardous in another. It's less about knowing the individual words, and more about comprehending what the other person is expecting to hear.
The topics of the conversations are informed by Humanity, Narcy, Maverick, and Elders. These repeated thoughts help you detect trends and comprehend the reasoning behind diverse responses.
Time Changes Every Choice
You can’t spend hours and hours studying every keyword. The ongoing replenishment of the stun gun energy gives you a countdown pressure to make quick decisions.
One way to do this is to read the available words first, figure out the theme of the conversation, and then select the combination that best fits with what the character has said previously.
Conversations with Cannibals is a unique survival experience in which weapons are replaced by dialogue, keywords, memory, and empathy. It combines time pressure and repeated discovery to make every discussion a test of how well you can understand both the words and the person behind them.
The following shot can be the missing retort that finally turns the conversation. Play Now and discover how long your words can keep you alive!
