Down for the Count
You've been invited to the Pan-Count Ball! Counts from all over the region will be in attendance, and your family is counting on you to get the attention of Count Ada von Sunshine. You've got to locate her at the party and spend enough time in her vicinity to catch her interest!
Unfortunately, you've got intense social anxiety, and being in the company of so many important people can really ratchet up the stress. While the event timer counts down steadily, your panic timer counts much more erratically. Try to avoid panicking by managing your surroundings and social state. If things get too bad, finding a corner to relax in for a moment might be a good idea.

WASD or arrow keys to move.
Being close to a count will increase their attention meter. Fill it up, and they'll talk to you. Once you're chatting, it's a major faux pas to walk away from a conversation early - you're anxiety will ratchet up from the rudeness you've displayed! Once you've finished chatting, walking away isn't rude. But you only want to talk to Ada! The others are a little odd.
If your anxiety timer or the level timer runs out, you'll move on to the next level. You'll still have the chance to talk to them there!
If you miss a dialog option, the View Script button on the main menu can show you all of the conversation choices you might've missed!
