God of Chaos

Awesome :)

I really enjoyed this as a whole. It was a bit short and it did have a few moments where it felt like the story was speeding along but overall I loved the tone of it. The story was great and I really felt like it let you play into the power fantasy of being this God of Chaos. It had moments that felt funny or sad or serious and some pretty grim imagery when it tried. Honestly wish it had more too it because I enjoyed playing the main character so much.

I love the concept of playing as a god. The choices were fun. There is a stat system to help determine outcomes but I pretty much ignored it and I think I only failed in one or two scenes but maybe that was supposed to happen anyway. The stat system seemed so forgiving I wasn't sure if it actually changed the story or not. The story itself was basic but there were some interesting discoveries that mostly had to do with the creativity of the lore. That and some random events kept it breathing for me. I lost interest toward the end. The major conflict was over but the story just kept going on and the story was never its strong point. The characters were simple. Serious things happened to them but the tone of their dialogue was kept light for the most part and the events didn't really change their personalities beyond the scene. Also there are several times when you choose one to follow you and divert from the group so I didn't feel very attached to any of them. I didn't feel like my choices impacted them beyond the moment. The romance like everything else wasn't very emotionally engaging. It was kept light and quick paced. Overall I give it a 6/10. I won't be looking for a sequel and…

An engaging, fast-paced, character-driven narrative with decisions that can make or break the world. It was relatively short but unlike some other interactive fiction I've read, the fast pace felt fittingly lean rather than rushed (it COULD be longer but it didn't NEED to be to tell the story). Side note: something I LOVED that I feel is desperately missing from other interactive fiction from COG is the option to replay the chapter at the end of each chapter! Although my preference would be a save option, I think this was a REALLY great alternative that I used quite liberally to experience more of the choices than I would have if it had forced me to lock into one.

Certainly one of the better recent CoG releases. Excellent premise, plenty of fun moments that really embrace the trickster god feel (big, powerful, chaotic moments), and quite well done on a technical level, with good pacing, a plot that works well together, and an easy-to-read style. It does lack depth though, with characters feeling flat, the choices a bit repetitive, and the game just overall lacking emotional potency. It was fun for a playthrough but fairly forgettable. (Please ignore playtime, I played it in my browser).
