Need help identifying a certian "anomaly". Don't open this thread if you havent gotten to the unholy captives or soldiers of the sea chapter.

Are the "Spider people" classified as beasts? Or as a foriegn enemy? Just making sure I'm going on the right track here.

[Sylvie]

Those are classified as beasts. All of the supernatural creatures in the game are referred to as beasts.

[Korgor]

Not certain if there's anything you can use 'enemy' for, apart from as a placeholder

[Aquillion]

The game sometimes accept alternative interpretations. Has anyone tried classifying the mermaids and crab/spider-riders as foreign enemies? I wouldn't be surprised if that's an option, allowing the player to decide whether to classify them as sentient beings or as terrible beasts.

Alright, thanks you guys!

Don't read the following if you haven't solved all fates.

I don't think anything can be classified as a foreign enemy. Along with a lot of the other options that aren't used, like frozen, eaten, or escaping to anywhere that isn't Africa, having it there prevents the options you're given from spoiling the rest of the game. For obvious reasons the game can't give you unlimited options, but by giving you the large variety it does and only confirming them in pairs of three, it has the best system I've ever seen for making sure the player actually made a reasonable deduction, or at least educated guess, without holding their hand.

"Eaten" has worked for the Helmsman, he's seen being pulled by a kraken so I thought well, somebody's bound to be eaten in this game. It shows up as "devoured" in the book.

[Korgor]

How fo you makethe black redacted thing

[Aquillion]

That's the spoiler tag.

Yeah there are a bunch of fates that accept multiple actions, like how the Gunner and the other guy getting shot with the cannon, can either be the fault of the Kraken or the Crewmember who lit the fuse.
