Rumor Mill: Village Gossip Sim

Rumor Mill is a cozy strategy puzzle about the kindest gossip in the valley. Whisper one rumor to the right villager at the right hour, then watch it travel through Millbrook. It must reach the Target before sunset, and the Wrong Ears must never hear a word.

You are Wren, the newest apprentice of the Whispering Society, a secret circle that has kept the village at peace for two hundred years by putting the right words in the right ears.

HOW IT WORKS
- Every villager follows their own day: the mill at dawn, the market at noon, the tavern at night.
- Tap anyone to see their day, their friends, their feuds and how they pass on news.
- Whisper the rumor, then play the day hour by hour. People who meet share what they know.
- Nudge things with tricks: send someone on an errand, keep them busy, hush them, or make the rumor juicier.
- Win when the Target believes it by sunset and the Wrong Ears never hear it.
