Complete waste of money
The whole first book was JUST WORLDBUILDING. There was nothing for you to do besides determine your characters values such as genuine or not. You are not included in much action at all in the whole story and in the end, this should’ve been free to play if the author really wanted to make it as a pilot episode type book. Haven’t played the rest of the books so if you don’t plan on completing the series, don’t buy.

Good concept, slightly overwritten
Excuse brevity.
Pros:
Nice concept, strong world-building, lots of variety in the story nodes. Also like the “Battle Stats” mechanic. The slow-burn choice investment style is cool.
Cons:
The descriptive passages are too dense and wordy; too much exposition between player interaction. Too often I can hear the writer’s voice rather than the characters, and it takes me out of the game.
Nonetheless, intriguing game-book style experience.

A great game, definitely worth the buy! Very excited to continue the story
AMAZING!!
I thought about getting the game for a while before getting it, but when I got it it was a-ma-ing! I 95% Recommended, it has awesome story telling, great characters, feels like a real book, and it is not too random on teleporting like the other reviews say. The *random* teleporting has a reason.
Have a good day!

I like weird, but...
This was just too weird for me. But I guess if you like absolutely no character development, a sidekick who’s in a coma for basically the entire book, and frequent random teleportations that make you wonder if the protag is just hopped up on drugs the whole time, then read on. But be warned- the basic plot is you getting dropped off on some random bloody planet and being confused the whole. freaking. time.
No actual progress further than that, and the parts with some action have no real risks. There’s just more backstory than I would care to swallow, and I felt myself skipping paragraphs upon paragraphs of some random planet’s history or whatever.
Probably not going to buy the next book.
