Description from Steam STEAM

In this deduction adventure, you play as Lil - an unlikely 12-year-old hero - covering your dad's shift at the guard shed and are tasked with deciding the fate of over 100 unique characters. You will question humans, elves, goblins, cyclopes, and other fantasy creatures using your powers of deduction to determine who to admit or deny based on how they respond to your questions and your trusty tools. Sending visitors to jail, inadvertently zapping them to smithereens, or letting them go on their merry way are all part of the job. But be careful: who you let through the castle gates will determine the kingdom's fate. See the Sprawl and its fantastical & quirky citizens through a royal wedding to one of two kingdoms vying for an alliance, and a subsequent siege by whoever you've angered in the process. Your decisions can determine the fate of the city and its people! Interrogate 100+ fully voiced characters in just the right way to earn a perfect score. Spend your hard earned gold wisely on powering up your guardsman toolkit, and strategically deploy these to admit or deny the right people or...goblins? Use your trusty Chronometer3000 to go back and get a higher score... but be careful not to break space and time in the process.

Description from IGDB IGDB

Imagine you're a 12 year old, suddenly in charge of the guard shed at the castle gate, where you decide if elves, goblins and 100+ other characters should be admitted. It's a wonderful combination of deduction, narrative and puzzle games.

Wikipedia Description WIKIPEDIA

In Lil' Guardsman, the player takes the role of Lil (short for Lilith), a 12-year-old girl who must do her father's duties as a guardsman for the fantasy kingdom of the Sprawl. Players must decide to admit, deny, or (later) arrest different characters, and the player's choices have an impact on the story. Lil has three action points for each character who wishes to enter the Sprawl. Each action point can be spent on interrogation, calling one of the three royal advisors for their opinion, or on one of five tools available. The tools also require power crystals to operate, and they can only hold a limited amount. However upgrades can be purchased to provide the tools with more uses. Players can also retry any interaction, but they only retry a limited number of times. The player can also travel to other parts of the Sprawl between shifts, allowing players to see the results of their decisions and occasionally making them do something which impacts the story.
