Amazing
I am a big fan of the author’s books, so being able to play in such a cerebral game set in that world is sheer pleasure. Brilliant writing and difficult choices ensure I will be replaying this a lot. I was genuinely wracked at some of the choices I was making in the game, brilliant.
Fun
Excellent writing — funny and suspenseful. Played through several times to change results. Great game.
Glorious, cutting, deep
I replay this game every few years, and I'm surprised and impressed by Gladstone's writing each time. Really hard to recommend this game more. Excellent universe, realistic characters, useful structure, and tough choices. Give it a play!
A Universe I Can Get Behind
A great, well-written game with a really unique world and interesting story—none of it felt tired. Magical lawyers are such a neat concept. Loved it so much I started getting into the related books, which are also great.
Fantastic book tie-in!
🌈🦄💕
I might actually like lawyers now
A fantastic game, with really top notch writing and a vibrant world!
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING
This was absolutely remarkable!!!! I was sucked into the lore immediately and really grew into my character's skin! All the characters were very believable - my guy started making out with Wakefield and it was the best - and I genuinely cared about all of them! I'm only disappointed that it didn't last longer!!!!

Love it
I'm happy that I took the plunge into buying this game. Love the characters and their personalities. I adore the world the author created. This game led me to reading the Craft Sequence series and it's honestly life changing.
Loved it!
Interesting, beautiful world-building. Lots of choices with consequences. A couple different romance options. Just over all a really fun game with a great story! I've played it many times.
Great! The First Time Around
Literate, error-free prose that allows the reader some input in navigating the plot's myriad twists and turns.
A bit disappointed in the depth and number of choice offered, however. Usually, I satisfy that craving by re-playing. The huge drawback to the series for me is the absence of bookmarks or chapter save points, even. To replay is to wade through pages and pages of text which does not change much if what I desire are subtle changes in approach to maximize (or minimize) trait scoring. Lacking that, at least inform us of how much charisma or craft, or whatnot we'd need for a particular choice selection.
I'd still recommend as this story is like an economical novella that is written with skill and creativity.

Should've played sooner!
I've played almost all COGs but I put off playing this one because the idea of playing a lawyer just didn't appeal to me. That said, this was a *great* game. The writing, setting, and characters are strong. The choices you make greatly affect the game experience and the ending. Your skills are fun and interesting, and there are plenty of relationships to explore. Yes, you play a lawyer but your clients and cases are just plain cool. There is plenty of engaging drama, and the end is very climatic and satisfying. I just finished it, and I look forward to trying again - it seems like there are many different endings. I liked playing this game a lot, and as many reviewers have stated, I really hope there will be a sequel or another game set in the same world. Definitely worth your time and money, give it a try!

Great Game
It had me captivated

My favorite Choice game
This interactive story of demonic office politics is a delight, at times creepy and at times hilarious. The writing is top notch, even by the high standards of this developer, and this particular story should make anyone who's worked in a law firm smirk (or sigh) at the accuracy of its details.
Good but Not a Favorite
I did enjoy this game and replayed a few times. It has less replay value than some of their other games and choices seemed to have less impact. The setting/world and characters were very interesting though, and overall, I am glad I played.
Brilliant
Very good story, characters and the decisions always felt difficult and rewarding
Amazing
This is a hilarious, well-plotted, and intricately designed game. Features include a surprisingly fun and complex stat-raising system, good replay value, and both subtle and large consequences to your choices. 10/10; would become an undead abomination again
awesome game
i just love this game. i can't stop playing it.
Pleasantly surprised
Lawyers, ibankers, and even management consultants may find this one a little close to home, and I'd recommend they try it even if they're not into videogames. It's basically just a choose your own adventure book set in a law firm not unlike Wolfram & Hart in the Buffy/Angel universe. Well written.

Great game
I have played many Choice of Games... games, and I have to say that this might be the platonic ideal. A great mix of stats building and narrative intrigue. The writing was superb as was the world building. Simply a terrific tale and one I played multiple times to achieve my desired outcome. Can't wait to play the sequel...
