addedHere's what the new v0.760e demo update includes:
addedNew character - INVESTIGATOR: He allows you to pick any 2 cards and learn the most suspicious character type among them.
addedNew unlockable skins for Baa and Shaman
addedNew Oracle Action system : This lets you recap previous character actions like reveals, ability activations, and kills.
addedBalance change - Most abilities will no longer refresh after each Night Cycle. Ability refreshes after each Night will become a new character mechanic, available only to few characters. Currently only Dreamer will refresh after each Night. (Dev comment: Adding Lycanthrope/Werewolf made the Night Cycle much more frequent. This made some villages - especially ones with a larger amount of characters - a bit too easy. For now we decided to disable ability refreshes for almost all current characters, but will explore how to balance this mechanic for more characters.)
