I was gifted this game for X-mas, and sat down today to play.

And suddenly 5 hours had passed....

What is this game? The only way I can explain it is, it's a mix of the good old paper RPG, text RPGs, and them "you choose" scenario books I read as a kid.

Don't let the childish "graphics" fool you, the game is pretty complex. It is (at least from what I can tell), fully randomized, and the re-playability is high. But is is amazingly easy to play...and get hooked into!

It is brilliantly written and very engaging. Personally it gave me a Harry Potter feel to it due to the school thing.

Anyways, I hope people take notice to this game. It is VERY fun, and needs to be experienced first hand to understand. Watching videos is hardly helpful since this is a "text" game.

I highly recommend it to anyone that don't mind reading and using your imagination...in other words people who read BOOKS... ;)
