Story and Introduction:

In the midst of a deep conflict, with bloodshed apparent in every nook and cranny, medical supplies are worn thin, dwindling in comparison to the sheer demand required for the never-ending waves of war casualties. In these apocalyptic circumstances, what gets you through is merit - what entitles you to rations or whatever few luxuries a life in this time can offer. With social order dismantled, some people will do whatever they can to stay afloat in this tragic land.

One such example would be you, a crooked doctor. Earning as much merit as possible from saving people, by supplying them with body parts they need, which come rarely and randomly from a magic box, whilst ignoring standard medical protocol, such as the Hippocratic Oath. There are two main sets of military personnel: Sparrows (white die) and Eagles (gold die). With the merit earned from the latter being tenfold as the former, clear priority is to be shown to attend to these superior officers.

However, not only can you merely prioritise important patients, more obsolete patients can be “sliced and diced”, where they are carefully sliced open and a body part is given out on the “ROLL OF THE DICE”.

Upon either being killed or dying naturally, dead bodies emit fumes that continually lower your merit until disposed of.  Due to low surveillance, the merit lost from a soldier being killed and dying naturally is the same. Try your best to keep your merit above 0 for as long as possible, whilst the chaos around you becomes more and more extreme as time rolls its tanks.
