How do you tell them to pose?

Very nice entry. It was a bit complex to understand at first, but the concept is really interesting. I especially like how the camera tilts!

Hilarious game! I love the poses and the mechanic to survive by eating them. xD

You probably should make the item panel more visible, I didn't notice while I was playing the first time. Good that I looked at the screenshots before rating it. That's a really cool concept, I loved taking beatiful pictures near the crystals covered in blood.

Wow, really interesting idea! Hilarious to see the adventurers pose only to be a puddle of blood seconds later.

The phone interface is a great idea, but execution could use a bit of work. I wasn't sure commands to the adventurer were working at first while he was far away, some audio or visual cue that you gave the command would help with this.

Overall very innovative and funny!

Interesting concept but the controls could use more work.

Seemed like a really interesting idea - like a more hands on Dungeon Keeper. Was there some way to get the adventurers to listen to me? They just kept milling around like guinea pigs, refusing to pose. I loved the phone UI idea and the graphics throughout, although I'd consider moving "Turn off" far away from "Invite Adventurer"... Still, great entry - keep it up!

Nice mechanics but not enough challenge.
Weird feeling after that ! ^^
