This is a most excellent game! The artwork is good and provides an excellent atmosphere. The theme is great and one which I find most appealing. The game provides a reasonable enough challenge at the higher levels. Gameplay and mechanics aside, I'd say this game has the makings of being a great game!
Gameplay and mechanics are *deceptively* complex - at first glance this game looks to be very simple and not worth playing for long, but the skills form such intricacies at later levels that you really have to strike a balance to make a character survive. Bravo! 5/5
Please make more of these!!! ;)

Dull and blend looking game...but I really had a great time with it! Pretty challenging even tough it's pretty simple!

Really liked the game! Boss battle came a little sudden, and even in hard it was too easy. Looking forward to the sequel!

Hard mode Last Flake with 200hp and 15% regen/turn>30 HP per turn when the hard boss does about 20DMG/turn. Yeah. I enjoyed the game, keep it up. :)

Is the progress of the needle through the hit bar meant to be variable and jerky, or is that just lag on my computer?

oh, LowManji already told us. Well, he shouldn't have hid it in the middle of his post with a general guide. :P By the way, with enough points instead of what LowManji suggested, you could also go full in the offence with the detective, as with the hunter and play the hunter on healing with the Viper Move and Tortoise Pose, just take a defensive stand before you use Viper Move. Anyway, probably this is what I like about this game: the diversity in playing your characters. Really a great game!

FINAL BOSS ON HARD MODE: Have the wolfish girl put 5 points in regenation and 5 in HP, having 200 HP total, regenerating 30 (15%) every turn. You can beat the boss with her alone. The monster heals 10 every turn and your normal attack does 10ish damage. You get about 30 damage every round, but also heal 30 every round. Your special attacks and the crits do the actual damage, slowly downing him while you keep standing. My results: turns 69; accuracy 70%; total damage dealt 2388. If that takes too long (it does!), throw the priest at it first with his cleansing attack maxed as someone already suggested.

Only one thing that I don't like about this... New chapter but the health remains from the last chapter!? That's not really nice :S

Somehow my first hit on first enemy was perfect hit, getting hard badge is not so easy though. 1 advice - start with Librarian so as to deal massive damage to the final boss.

Badge of the Day guide: Easy mode, second battle. Put all your points into Headshot; if you get it close enough to the yellow area, the Headshot boost will bump it up to 100%.

How is that an easy badge? Seriously, I don't know if I'm doing something wrong, but it seems near impossible to actually get it. It seems more like it randomly deciding what percentage I get for a hit.

@uncledemotivator just press the prt screen to get a screen shot, paste in on paint document and sabe it as jpeg (type of picture to select in the list when you save) then send it to kongregate using the 'game bug' tab below the game screen on the right, make sure you report it as 'missing badge'.

Meta-gaming tip! When travelling with more than one character, make sure you spend the points of the characters you are not going to fight with on health. They will be healed 20% of their max, which you just increased, even if they do not fight. :)

I've got hit perfect 3 times, yet the game didn't seem to report it to the Kongregate API - the funny thing is I even couldn't take a screenshot as hits percentages vanish too quickly.

@ferryp: You can get the BotD within 5 minutes of playing the game easily. Plus, the badge is needed for the Scared Stiff Quest on Kongregate, so no point not getting the Easy badge. Hard badge on the other hand... well, it's hard.

Did not appreciate "terror" enemies, as noted by others. Taking 50-80 health is unbalanced compared to heal rate (even with a "sacrifice" strategy like mine). Flake is the only way to win the game, and only if you go all-in regen.

Got the hard badge and started by using LowManji's strategy but changed quickly (at least for last 5 chapters). If char's were ever teamed up, then I made anyone in the top row burst damage (get whatever for multi-shot) and essentially sacrificed them time and time again. After enough points, making Sheriff insta-doge and then Ulti is nice too. They would wound the enemy, and then make bottom row chars high regen and they'll always live (LowManji is right about 4 in Bite for Flake). When Char's are solo, make them tanky and just outlast. Last boss, sacrificed everyone before Flake who can simply outlast him (she could have won all by herself).

This game is too repetitive too be as long as it is. It is a lot of fun at first, but you level up too slow and just keep fighting the same things over and over again. If there is a sequel, add more stuff to do!!!

I swear that this game has some sort of Input Lag, there are times where I swear I hit the needle at 100% and it goes around 75% (Post 100%) and when I stop at 75% (Pre 100%) it goes to 100%, pleasecheck this bug out, game developer. The story and everything in general are just okay, but this nitpick strays it away from being a perfect game, also, I consider the hard mode a bit too easy

Game WAY too hard, never can I hit @needle@ right... Way too fast needle. So, I cannot upgrade fully anyone? WHY?? Fix the game!! It will be perfect! but now.... 3/5.

Flake is the real monster first max her regen then her bite, if you maintain above 75% accuracy, she will be untouchable.

None of the characters except the Last Flake matter for the final boss. Just max out her regeneration and give her some health and the last boss will not be able to do damage fast enough to kill her.

To everyone having problems defeating the Ancient Fear on Hard, this is the build I used:
Marco - Spirited Bullets and Concentration maxed, the rest on Headshot
Simon - Cleansing maxed, the rest on Concentration
Angela - Diamond Shot maxed, the rest on Concentration
Last Flake - Bite maxed, the rest on Concentration
Jake - Tiger Claw maxed, the rest on Concentration
That is it. I t will be a bit luck based, but very strong. I won in my second try.

Simple change that would benefit the smoothness of the playing experience a lot - make healing numbers in green and damaging numbers in red. This would make it easier to tell whether you actually got damaged or healed with an ability.
