About the Hard Mode
Let's try something different for the Hard Mode this year! Apart from this page, there will be no hints whatsoever on GameTora! You must find out how to proceed yourself!
Chronologically, the Hard Mode takes place immediately after Normal Mode ends.
The cutest ARG-like experience on this side of the Internet!
This time, there will be some prizes for the fastest solvers! However, there's no need to rush if competing stresses you out. The event won't go anywhere.
Because there are actual prizes, only a very small portion of the event is unlocked right now, since I want to make sure everything is working.
The current portion of Hard Mode can be completed very quickly, and the main part will become available on December 30, at 16:00 (4pm) UTC. There will also be a countdown on the last currently available page.
If you notice any jank or stuff not working, let me know on Discord.
Please note that the Hard Mode was created with PC in mind, and the mobile experience will probably be subpar.
Prizes
Because GameTora is a gaming site, I think buying the top solvers something on Steam is a fun idea.
- 2x any game on Steam for the fastest solver of the *entire* event story
- 1x any game on Steam for the first person to find Ino (any% finish)
- 1x any game on Steam for the first solvers of each of the three mini-challenges found througout the event
- A Discord role and maybe a small gifts for every solver!
If you *really* don't want games on Steam, we can of course figure something different with similar value.
It's finally time for...
... anyway, I think it'd be a good idea to look for Koma's roommate. Maybe you could start by checking Ino's PC.dot com
