Five small games, each in its own universe, about how anyone learns what counts as normal.

From a creature you raise to a culture you decode.

From a Thronglets style creature you raise to a culture you decode: the fun is working out what normal looks like, then spotting the one that does not fit.

One rules engine for every game.

A rules engine where each species draws a few customs from thirteen, and one checker that judges what any creature did, so the same code catches a mutant, an impostor or a person.

Five prototypes on one field.

Five prototypes on one field: Mutant, Infiltrator, Blend, Hunt for two devices or against a bot, and Interview with creatures voiced by Claude.

Each game moved into its own universe.

After playing, Jason found Mutant, Infiltrator and Hunt too alike and Interview not fun, so each game moved into its own universe with its own look, controls, sound and lesson.

Four new universes.

Four new universes: a T cell patrol drawn like fluorescence microscopy, an ink and paper museum of hidden laws with a two player duel, a cave choir learned by ear, and an oracle that predicts your coin flips.
