The option which used to be the ‘greed/avaricious’ one has now been reworded to include people who wish to take the head out of a sense of honour/duty. It doesn’t change the much else a great deal, but it now also tests against your Authoritarian stat to let players grab it with that motivation.
Which brings me to… The December 2025 build is here! 200k words added, various changes and bug fixes from last time (basically responses to feedback in this thread), and eleven full chapters to play through.
Play it on cogdemos, or download the html version below. No content differences between the two.

If you were in the middle of a run of the prior cogdemos version, it might carry on without problems, or weird stuff might happen. I can’t really say for sure. Starting again is probably recommended.
Things to do in Chapter Eleven:
Summary
-
Defending yourself at a tribunal, for those awful heretic traitors who were detained at the end of 10.
-
Evicting some frightful heretics who totally deserve it (for those who were not detained).
-
(Potentially) investigating a rogue tailor.
-
Taking a trip to Nico’s erotic mindscape (for those close to them).
-
Getting all wet with a different companion.
-
Chatting with your faithful horse.
-
A lovely trip to a crypt to meet a… friend?
This is also my annual nag-post about adding Hexfinder to your Steam wishlist, it helps signify interest (even if you don’t actually plan to buy from Steam) and is good, I assume, for my self-esteem. You can do so here: Hexfinder on Steam
