Deconstructeam and Devolver Digital announce the release of a new "Mercy" update for Gods Will Be Watching, showing a little mercy to those struggling with some of the more difficult areas in the adventure game. They explain: "The update to the critically lauded title brings new challenge settings that adjust the game’s overall difficulty and a new option to remove the element of chance from decisions made throughout the game. It’s still no cakewalk though, chumps." Those who enjoy a good challenge need not fear, as the game's original difficulty is preserved: "New challenge settings range from Original Mode, which keeps the game’s full difficulty intact, to a new Puzzle Mode that removes all elements of chance and Narrative Mode for gamers looking to just experience the story with minimal obstacles to success."
