User reviews

Fun, light-hearted CoG

This and Tally Ho! are some of my favorite Choice of Games stories. Writing's similar to Bertie and Wooster books.

On another note, I'm happy that these are getting their own independent apps again.

Well, well worth the purchase

Kreg Segall is such a talented comedy writer, the only other CoG game that made me smile like this one is his previous work, Tally Ho. The sheer volume of content you get here is also ridiculous, it’s a long read and yet it still left you wanting more. The only bad thing I can say about it is that the wait for “Tea and Scones” is going to be agonizing.
