A downloadable game for Windows

The job of a ticket collector is more interesting than you might think. So many people you meet for so brief a moment, it makes you wonder if they could ever remember them all. Well let's find out!
Step into the shoes of a ticket collector, tasked with remembering every person that enters and leaves the train, with every aspect of their appearance. Will you stand up to the challenge, or get steamrolled? (yes that is meant to be a train pun)

Ticket and Face Please! Is a really tough memory game that will require quick observation and the ability to take notes and memorize in very little time. Using pen and paper is HIGHLY recommended, unless you have photographic memory, or you are willing to accept you're not going to get a perfect score.
Have fun, and remember to play this game on the train for maximum realism!

This game was made as part of the Train Jam at the HKU. The game was made in 24 hours, and (almost) entirely while in an actual train. Not an ideal space to make a game, but hey I got to ride first class for my first time ever.

CONTROLS:
The game is fully controlled with the mouse. Click on buttons to make choices and answer questions.

You can use the J'Accuse button if the passenger walking in front of you is a wanted criminal. Don't throw accusations willy-nilly however, false accusations hurt your score!
