Lurk or Lose
You are an ex-Demon Lord hiding as a humble baker in a sleepy town — tap to dodge angels, tap again to keep your human disguise intact, and swipe to unleash hell only when no one is watching.
Customers and angels walk past your shop; tap to maintain a benign cover (smile, serve bread) and hold to covertly use a demon power; get caught using magic and your disguise meter collapses.
Tap quickly to interact with townsfolk; hold finger on self to 'compose your human face'; swipe up to secretly unleash a tiny demon power (only when no eyes are on you).
Cozy small-town bakery exterior vs. fiery demon underworld underneath — split-screen visual cue when mask slips, queer-coded cast of demon/angel NPCs.
