(A Werewolf Thriller)

Vox Populi, Vox Dei (A Werewolf Thriller) is a fun flash game from Waremsoft in which you play a character on “a bloody quest to rescue the girl that hurt you from the hands of the planet’s dominant race: The werewolves.” Sneak by the werewolves and tackle them when they’re not looking — and enjoy the glorious blood effects as you mutilate them where they stand. (They seem pretty evil, so I guess that’s okay?)

Play Vox Populi, Vox Dei here, on Kongregate. (Requires Flash Player 10.)

    The blood effects in this game make me feel fuzzy.

    Interesting concept but the gore effects got old real fast.

    it’s a shame that you can’t move while you’re killing a werewolf, being the game very frustrating at times, personally i think that it’s a very big flaw on the gameplay, even if it’s supposed to be a feature

    which concept was interesting? it’s a mediocre platformer whose fx are overshadowed by the fact it takes a long time just to torture porn a wolf.

    ace background artwork, but the killing takes WAY too long and the controls are sticky (btw, happy Mac owners, try Cmd instead of Ctrl); I’ve lost interest at the second teleporter screen.

    Visually wonderful but I don’t like any of the three sound effects the game has.
    Nevertheless, I find this a lot more entertaining and much less frustrating than the game below.

    I enjoyed it once I got used to it. There were a couple of interesting puzzles and the tackling mechanic works well. The length was about right for this type of game, I think. The blood effect is kind of a gimmick and killing each wolf does take a bit too long, plus the plot is a bit hackneyed, but overall it was fun.

    I had a lot of fun with this, but the ending was a bit disappointing.

    I just wonder if ilkke (the guy who made the werewolf used in this game) actually allowed to be used. I couldn’t find his name anywhere.

    The werewolf sprite is stolen from a pixeljoint member called ilkke

    Excellent. Thanks for posting.

    Well if I take anything from this game, it’s that prior to this point in life I didn’t realize how gratifying it is to tackle a werewolf off a building and onto the hood of a car

    @Derp @pix Not really stealing if he credited that person (and most likely asked permission).

    I thought it was fun and didnt overstay its welcome. Obviously you can only take one mechanic and a few simple puzzles so far.

  • iLKke

    No, he didn’t ask for a permission.
    Not sure what to make of this :|

    Guess I’ll just drop him a mail, saying that he should have asked for it.

  • http://www.roachpuppy.com Chris Zamanillo

    @iLKke That really sucks, he gave credit but he definitely shouldve asked first. Despite the circumstances, your werewolf was awesome.

  • nik

    well, you could always buy some fruit and vegetables with those credits!

    hehe, nice to see the steam pipes from another world there !

    even the style reminds me somehow of that gime.

    nice one.

    It’s called a “tail”, smart guy.
