As far as the difficulty went - I'd say this was about what I was aiming for, difficulty-wise? I was expecting the "Always a no" guess, and wasn't too surprised that my counter-example was the first
yes
to hit the board.

I definitely like the fact that there isn't a limit on guesses. It provides a way to force the oracle to give you info if you feel like you've hit a dead end.
It's always the same. When you fire that first shot, no matter how right you feel, you have no idea who's going to die. You don't know whose children are going to scream and burn. How many hearts will be broken. How many lives shattered. How much blood will spill, until everybody does what they're always going to have to do from the very beginning... SIT DOWN AND TALK!

I suppose I could have tried to obfuscate things further by keeping the eagle out of the picture and doing something like "So does everyone in here have the same story to tell?" or "So are you telling me there's a chance?" Trying to keep the third word as mundane and ordinary as possible so that it gets glossed over or otherwise minimized.

(Going forward, I'm wondering if this game should use the rule from Zendo where the oracle starts by providing one Yes and one No question.)

Done. I'll leave it up to you as to whether it should apply retroactively to your rule, though.
