this is a really good game, especially for the time, and it really did try but failed a couple times with the storytelling. also, the vibe isn't fully there, missing that aspect the original book had. that might be attributed to the fact that all of them are separated instead of together, and also the fact that Ted has essentially no backstory, and Benny's was scrapped and made from scratch and we barely get to see it either. Ellen's was walking in the right direction but stumbled. Gorrister has a whole ass thread that seemed to have been dropped. but honestly, Nimdok's was basically perfect. The two paths, and a really deep look into his BGs and the real repercussions of his actions were really well laid out. i wish we could get something that mixed this game and all the missing stuff from the book, but alas. is pretty good tho.
