The game was interesting, but i just quite didnt get the objective of the game. That might just be me though.

Good stuff, I like the idea! I tried to for a while but couldn't do the 4th level, it seems no matter what I do the second guard gets alerted and reaches me before the first has popped.

I enjoy genocide a little too much is what I've discovered today.

Interesting concept, but I kept getting killed even when I was disguised.

Nice idea, but I was doing the same thing over and over, pretty much the only thing to do, take guard, walk back, take guard walk back. I'd like more sneaking.
Cool entry though!

Cool idea, and I like the speech boxes the scared peasants yell, but is the gameplay just click on guy, wait 4 seconds, click on next guy until guy == king?
