You’re the guest of honor at an elegant dinner party - until you hit the floor, dead.

Then you’re back at the table. Same faces. Same candles. Three minutes on the clock.

One of them did this. Someone knows more than they’re saying. And every time you fail, you rewind - carrying what you’ve learned with you. Ask sharper questions. Watch their tells. Follow the glances. Change your approach. Accuse, observe, die... then try again.

The Dinner Loop is a sharp, dialog-driven thriller of suspicion and strategy. No small talk. No safety. Just chaos. If at first you don't succeed, die, die again.

• Branching paths and reactive characters.
• Dynamic music that sets the tone right.
• Lots of clues, deaths, twists, and did I mention deaths?
