Ookami: a tense social-puzzle for iPhone
Ookami Game is a narrative-driven puzzle experience for iPhone that combines social deduction with survival stakes. Players find themselves trapped inside a foreboding building and must participate in a deadly contest known as the “Wolf Game.” One participant secretly assumes the role of the wolf, whose objective is to remove other players from the group, while everyone else receives sheep cards and must identify the wolf before it's too late.
Gameplay overview
- Players collaborate and interrogate one another to gather clues and spot inconsistencies.
- The wolf secretly eliminates opponents while trying to blend in and mislead the group.
- Success depends on careful reasoning, reading other players’ behavior, and using limited information to make accusations.
Core experience and appeal
