The story of this game and the gameplay for the first time is easily 5/5. However, after playing it four times with different choices in every single one, I discovered that the game is basically the same no matter what you do. This feels like a huge bummer, because the story is so good! *SPOILERS AHEAD* But it doesn't matter if you kill all the gods and absorb their powers, you still die to the titan, you just survive a little longer. It feels like I have no control. And the plot twist is mid.
I played this game quite a long time ago, and I only recently remembered it. It is one of my dearest games, and I love the contrast between the complex story and the simplicity of the interface. I think it is worth buying the full version if you love text-based adventures as much as I do.
It's okay, but needs to be more fleshed out. The story isn't too eventful, and the plot jumps around. The full game is a bit overpriced for the small amount of replayability it has. The way you create your world or species has no effect on plot, either, which is really disappointing.
