I bought this game thinking it was a turn based strategy game with some special events, like many other games out there.
Well, to put it simple, it isn't, it's a game where you need to enjoy games designed to make you lose while you can't do anything about it.
The main game mechanics it's based on text conversations, where the answers are usually like this:
You find a monster!
a) Beat him in the eye -> you lose the game
b) Beat him in the leg -> you lose the game and you get made fun of
c) Beat him in the head-> all the villages declare war on you and you lose the game
d) Beat him in the fingers -> the monster dies but your character dies too, your village gets raided and you lose the game in the next turn
You can't know in advance which is the least negative answer, all of them are
I don't mean this is a bad game, a lot of people love to get random, unfair, slowly and inevitably losing gameplay. The harder and more unfair the better, in videogames and in life in general. BUT not all people like this, and if you don't like it this is a really bad game. So the "BEST GAME EVER" predominant opinions are very misleading, this game is not for all kind of public, just the masochist ones
