    {
      "q": "What kind of horror is this?",
      "a": "Analog, found-footage horror. You work a night shift digitizing videotapes from a decommissioned TV station, and what is on them reacts to you. The dread builds through static, timestamps, and things that should not be on the reel, not through gore."
    },
    {
      "q": "Why is it rated 16+?",
      "a": "For themes of dread, isolation, and psychological analog horror. There is no explicit gore, but the tone is genuinely unsettling and meant for older players. If sustained tension and creeping dread are not for you, this one commits to the scare."
    },
    {
      "q": "How does the doom clock work?",
      "a": "It is a clock that only rises. Certain choices and discoveries push it up and nothing brings it down, so pressure accumulates as the night goes on. It shapes how much time you have to make sense of the tapes before the shift ends."
    },
    {
      "q": "Can I play it in Claude or another AI?",
      "a": "Yes. Vigil runs inside ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini; paste the starter and begin your shift. A tape log and save codes keep everything in the chat, so you can pause a session and resume the vigil later without losing your place."
