I know there're heaps of gushy reviews of this game, but I wish I'd never bought it. Notwithstanding I haven't the least idea what is going on, the biggest problem is that I'm being asked to admire and assist Queen Meve, who is basically a right royal, hard-mouthed, abusive, tyrannical, murderous bracket. Even if she wants not to hang a peasant guilty of being a witness to a crime, it appears her army gets a fit of the sulks if no-one is hung from a gibbet. The average play time is 22 hours. Presently I'm at 18 hours and sorely noticing the lack of a manual which can explain what this ruddy game's about. If I'm truthful, I'm actually on the side of the peasantry and bandits she's oppressing. Hurrah for the bandits! And Queen Meve? Di'el tak the wight!
This is a game where part of the gameplay seems to be working out how to open a door or how to catch a rabbit when you're a little girl dreaming about being an owl. Probably quite a good game if that's what rings your bell, but I was simply relieved to stop playing it. It's too slow and there's too little reward in the tiny achievement of working out what keys roll a shark down a hill. Might come back to it when I'm retired or something.
