About the Game

“It is said that her ego has its own country...”

Story


Goblet of Mercy is a short interactive dark fantasy tale about your encounter with a woman whose ego is so big she made her own perfect world to contain it.

It began with Halloween, a time when the veil between worlds is thin. Your friend Judy invited you out to a themed party at the local library. A Halloween event, a good friend, a lot of weird books for sale. Judy might have been in a shifty mood, but there was no need to worry.

Really. What could go wrong?
