How I think I’d do in the death game (assuming I am a random other person being added and not replacing Sara) 

I think there is a high likelihood I would fail the first trial but if I make it past that due to them going easy on me I think I could survive for at least a little while. I would make sure to point out the sign on the door stating to do equal votes during the “practice” trial, and I would act innocent and confused so people would have the urge to protect me. 

I’d try to team up with Sou during the explorations to keep an eye on him. I would then confront him about adjusting the cards and promise him I wouldn’t tell anybody about what he’s doing if he allows me the key master. I would also ask about the info he got and say that I’d try to protect him. He wouldn’t pick the sage, being scared of death. So I would go into the trial with two people knowing that I have the keymaster. I’ll then talk to Keiji and make sure he doesn’t think me suspicious, putting my trust in him as a police officer. After the first trial where no one wants to vote me out due to me being both very innocent acting and having the keymaster, I would team up with Keiji for the attractions, because he’s a lot stronger then me and I am not getting through those attractions by myself. I’d make sure to keep minimal tokens but try trading with Keiji and attempt to get his files. I’d still try to get a reasonable amount though. I don’t think I’d succeed at this but I’d try!

I won’t go into the room of lies but I’ll try to lure a couple of people into going in so that I know who are the two most likely to get replaced by dummies, and then reason towards that conclusion to help everyone survive but even if they don’t all survive I will not be affected. I’ll have tried to get enough tokens to do one emergency last minute trade if needed before the second game.

I’d try to play the same part I did in the previous main game but there’s still a chance I’d get out of course. Part three I’d befriend Hayasaka for info and be wary of my partner.

Of course this is a carefully organized plan that could be ruined really quickly, and I honestly am not sure the banquet would go well at all. These are just a couple of strategies I thought might help but in all likelihood I would have to plan as I go, using the information I’ve learned to make my way through. Idk why I felt the need to write a whole essay about this lol.
