A great story with brilliant execution. I didn't know what to expect when i picked this up, but being a fan of most things rpg/story driven i thought i'd give it a try. I'm definitely not disappointed. The art style reminds me in many way of the Amiga demoscene. Lots of slick graphic design that's quite reminiscent of the stuff the black lotus put out. It reminds me in many ways of the old Steve Jackson (citadel of chaos, house of hell) and Jamie Thompson (falcon 1, 2 ,3 & 4) RPG books from the 80s, where you had to make decisions as the story unfolded, turn to the relevant page and either reach the end or die trying - with a bit of dice play and some simple stats thrown in here and there. You let your imagination run wild and lose yourself in the stories of those books, and this game is no different. You want to see what happens and end up doing one more cycle - then another - just to see where it leads and what happens next. It's definitely bleak to begin with. The odds are stacked against you big time, and things so far as i've got haven't got better, although a few glimmers of hope are there to cling to. I'm only a couple of hours in and probably nowhere near the end, but so far i've loved it, both for the game itself and the nostalgia trip of the format. I also click with the numerous references in the game to the nihilistic aspects of big corp dead ender profit at any cost of current times. If you enjoy a good story and a chill game that's well executed and keeps you wanting to see where it's all going then give it a try. It's a simple game to play. It has a deep setting and story. Happy to have picked this up fuill price and supported the devs. They clearly had a passion for what they were doing with this and it shows.
