Making a Text RPG Crime game mostly based on Indian crime scene, will be posting updates here 😉
Kindly give a follow if you want to know more and share your feedback along the process!
Also cosmetic update: font sizes are reduced
Normally the places label will be right aligned, but if name is too long, it will become left aligned and clip the tailing part

There is a nested dialogue tree as shown in video

also the responses load with a delay of 0.5 seconds simulating the player is thinking

if the dialogue reaches where no response required, the screen is cleared and reset to original set of actions at that location

in given demo,
'Greater Hills' is a posh residential area where there are big houses but you won't see many people on street at 11 PM, so the only crime available is 'Burglary'

while 'MG Road' is a market area, there even at this hour people will be seen in streets, and there are shops and houses too, so both 'Pickpocketing' and 'Burglary' can be done

NOTE: The time in game syncs to time in real life.

finally areas like 'Fort' / 'Dani Ports' are ghost towns at night, so no crime available

Free will actions right now available are 'Yawn' and 'Whistle', they don't do anything 😅

Let me know what you think of this 😁
Feel free to share your feedback 👍
