Show HN: Browser puzzle game, try to convince NPC the world is ruled by lizards (fiftysevendegreesofrad.github.io)

I've been making an experimental browser game on the topic of conspiracy beliefs and how they arise - would love to know what you think :) The underlying model is a belief network, though for the purpose of gameplay not strictly Bayesian. Your goal is to convince the main character the world is ruled by lizards.

(Full disclosure: Although I’m only here to test the game, I’m doing so as an academic researcher so have to tell you that I may write a summary of responses, and record clicks, as anyone else testing a game would. I won’t record usernames or quote anyone directly. If you're not ok with that, please say so, otherwise commenting necessarily implies you consent. Full details linked from the title screen.)
