Reviews
- Engaging story with a good mix of choices and an epic narrative that keeps players hooked for hours.
- Affordable price point for the amount of content provided, comparable to a typical 200-page paperback.
- Fun gameplay mechanics that involve mystery-solving and reading clues to make the right choices.
- The game is more linear than expected, with limited impactful choices that can feel like guessing the correct path.
- Lacks options to skip potentially objectionable content, which may not appeal to all players.
- Technical limitations such as inability to copy text and lack of features like dark mode or full-screen text can detract from the experience.

The story is engaging and spans approximately 17 hours, evolving from a small narrative to an epic tale with numerous choices that can lead to different outcomes, though many variations have minimal impact on the overall plot. While the narrative offers clues to guide players in making decisions, it is criticized for being overly linear and tailored more towards a male audience, with content warnings that lack the option to skip objectionable material. Overall, the story is well-crafted and offers substantial content for its price, making it a worthwhile experience despite its limitations.
“17 hours of great, page-turning content, an amazing story that starts out small and ends up being epic, with plenty of choices and chances to end your character's journey.”
“It's hard to measure in terms of pages, but there is at least as much story here as your typical 200-page paperback, and it's cheaper, too.”
“The game aspect really acts like miniature mystery solving as you read the story; the narrative almost always gives you the hints you need to make the right choice.”
“Instead of 'choose your own adventure', it's 'guess the one correct path the author made' as you stumble through this plot that is so linear it might as well be an amusement park ride.”
“One possible detraction, this story is written toward a male audience, more so than Wizard's Choice.”
“It has disclaimers at the start of each chapter saying things like 'this chapter contains sexual themes, violence', etc., but there is no way to skip a chapter or opt out of the possibly objectionable parts of the story, so those disclaimers really ought to be on the game as a whole.”

The music in the game is generally well-received, featuring good ambient tracks that enhance the storytelling experience. However, players express a desire for more music options and additional tracks to further enrich the gameplay.
“Pretty good game with an interesting story and good ambient music.”
“More music tracks and options.”
“There needs to be more music tracks and options.”
“The game lacks variety in its music selection.”
“The soundtrack is repetitive and gets boring quickly.”

The monetization strategy in the mobile version involves occasional ad viewing for progression, but players find it relatively non-intrusive compared to typical mobile game standards.
“In order to progress on the mobile version, you have to watch some ads here and there, but it's not that invasive as far as mobile game standards go.”
