Always be careful when sealing deals with a handshake. May never know if you're shaking hands with the devil. 😈

Here are the Rankings! Players start with 10 Game Points (GP)! You gain more by winning games and stealing points from other players! Only the top spot receives the grand prize! Don't let your points drop to 0! 👀

Rules are ESSENTIAL to ensure survival in Serendipity. Study them closely and follow them down to the letter. Anyone caught breaking the rules will be disqualified on the spot. 👀

The Game Bracelet is a device worn by the players. It tracks their progress throughout the games, i.e. points and rankings. However, if ANY rules are broken, it injects poison into their bloodstream. 😱

Relationships are a neat feature in the game! Build your relationships with different characters to unlock different routes! It couldn't hurt to make a few friends in a survival game. Or could it? 🤔

During free time moments in the game, players can travel around the map and interact with the other characters 3 times a day. Increase levels in friendship, find out how they're feeling throughout the game. 😀

Do you have a favorite character you want to hang out with or a character you wish to avoid? As long as they're alive, the map will show their location during the free time segments of the game. 😀👍

Introducing Trent, the recruiter behind the games. He finds suitable players and "convinces" them to risk their lives for the million-dollar grand prize. It's such a thankless job.
