How to play:

As per the jam theme, Grimoire of Oblivion follows in the footsteps of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion's persuasion wheel minigame. You have four actions you can perform, and each demon you fight has a different opinion of each. The demon's face will change to indicate how much it likes that action when you hover it. The objective of each battle is to match good actions with high multipliers and bad actions with low ones. Placing a healthy mix of high and low pages goes a long way.

You can play up to 3 actions per turn, and those actions will be locked until your next turn completes. The wheel rotates after each action. Try strategizing when to use an action, and when to wait for a better multiplier!

Between battles, collect pages around the environment, and fend off enemies. The demons don't stay gone for long.
