Fantastic

I've finally found a genre of game that delivers all the interesting bits- taking decisions with consequences for the story and the chatacters- without all the grind of kill-monster-get-treasure-craft-a-new-sword.

It's simple. The story progresses along, and you make all the decisions. The stats bar at the side tracks how your tribe trust you, how charming and how ruthless you are, which gods favour you, and so on.

I stayed up late to play more, because I wanted to know what happened next. I haven't done that in years. It's like they have distilled down the essence of all the interesting choices and moral dilemmas and removed all the boring bits, so you get through an entire saga without all the grind. If that sounds good to you, buy the game. Highly recommended.

Really Excellent!

I just finished my first play through of this game, and I truly enjoyed the experience. The writing is great, which isn't something you can say about every CYOA game. My only complaint is that the stats (and what affects them) feel really obfuscated.

A Great Story!

Captivating from start to finish, and with lots of replay value!

Totally worth it

Could not stop playing this game. So in depth and addicting, I highly recommend it

Interesting

I appreciate the intricacies and length of the game. The fact that one has to really think about their choices isn't found in a lot of COG apps. Not sure if I like the mechanic where the stats of the advisors affect which suggestion they'll give you; kinda messes with the way I view their character. Also a bit disappointed in the romantic gameplay; I wish there was more to it.
