I couldn't get the game to start at first, solved it by reducing the shadow quality to the minimum (rest on max). So I was expecting a bugfest. I was pleasantly surprised. Aside from some minor bugs I didn't encounter anything gamebraking or otherwise annoying. So let's get to the story. In short, you're playing Reynardo, a bold fox fighting in a rebellion, trying to achieve the seemingly impossible task to defeat the evil toad monarch. Despite the cartoonish look, and although all characters are animals, keep in mind that it's not a child's game. There are five chapters. At the beginning of each you choose the course of action, leading to different consequences and different choices in the next chapters. After the final consequence you're taken back in time (does make sense) with a new secret learned (depending on the choices) and maybe a somewhat better understanding what to do (or not to do) this time. This game is intended to be played through at least five times. "Lame", some may think. But far from it. In every playthrough the story (really rewarding) is different, you'll visit different regions and the enemys get harder each time. I wasn't bored a single minute. Well OK, maybe one...or two. But that was it and on with joy it went. You run around, find stuff for upgrades and fight. A lot. The skill system is nice and with the right skills the fights develop quite the flow. It's more than just a hack and slash - it's a "hack/slash/dash/pull" :-) It was pretty fun. The narration is exceptionally good, the narrator fills the story (which is surprisingly serious and sometimes quite sad) with humour and despite the seriousness I had to laugh many times. He also acts out the voices of the different caracters really well. The music's really good as well. After playing the game I often whistled some melodies for five minutes or so. If you love story-driven games with authentic characters and both witty humour and seriousness I really really recommend this game.
