Everyone gets exactly what they deserve.

In Snarecraft, hubris is a lot more than an allusion. It’s a game mechanic.

We open with the wolfgirls choosing to run on their exercise wheels – really everyone in the game is doing the same thing. Team Alchemy is still inside the Panoptic Library. Z observes it directly as he uses the clicker to keep Team Leash ready for the hunt. Gia has fully settled into her concubinded role, and she’s chasing treatstick.

Team Flowers watches from their own vantage point. They’re in the second secret library, which lets them see absolutely all of the action. They can’t look away.

They especially can’t look away from the forest scene with Team Thorns. Queen Tessa‘s been hacking through vines and bullying her thralls. Both the vines and thralls might have learned to adapt. Everything cut down in this forest grows back much, much stronger.

State Of The Dream

S5 has both a title – “After After” – and a thematic emphasis. It’s gravitating to posthuman monster romance. The writing process has begun, so season five should launch directly from season four, with only a week or two hiatus. Serial continuity will be maintained!

Auditions are open now.
