Do Not Feed the Monkeys is a unique production combining the features of a simulation, strategy and logic games. Independent teams at Fictiorama Studios and BadLand Games are responsible for its creation.
Plot
In Do Not Feed the Monkeys the player takes on the role of a new member of a secret association known as The Primate Observation Club. Its task is to observe people (the eponymous "monkeys") and obtain valuable information about their secrets.
Mechanics
In Do Not Feed the Monkeys we look at the lives of various personalities through security cameras. By eavesdropping on their conversations and observing their activities, we learn a variety of things about them. What we do with this information depends solely on us. We can follow the title and "do not feed monkeys", completely refraining from interfering with their lives, or the opposite - use our knowledge against them to earn additional money (which, however, has various consequences, often impossible to predict).
It is worth remembering, however, that thanks to the cash (of which you can't really have enough) the protagonist can pay for the rent or buy food and drinks necessary for survival. In addition, during the game, the players must take care of their health, allowing their character to get some sleep from time to time. For the latter, however, you should choose the right moment, because when sleeping our client loses the opportunity to observe their "victims", so that they may miss a useful tip. It is further complicated by the fact that in order to find out everything, the hero would have to look at several targets at once, which is impossible to achieve. For this reason, a single completion of the game is not enough to get to know all aspects of the game.
Technical aspects
Do Not Feed the Monkeys features simple two-dimensional graphics implemented using pixel art technique.
