Puts the player in the sandals of some down-trodden people in a rough time. You feel your characters buffeted by the whims of local power brokers as you try to decide who you can help while keeping your characters and their families alive. Some of the dialogue delivery is a bit slow (in a technical sense--maybe characters waiting for animations to complete before delivering a line?). But there's a refreshing lack of "filler talk". What's said is all that's needed to drive the story further and the puzzles won't leave you hung up or needing a hint guide. The historic fictional story treats Christian characters as individuals rather than a monolithic organization, and allows you to immerse yourself in the time. Would recommend this but a heads up for Linux users that I did have to play with LD_LIBRARY_PATH a bit to get this thing running.
