Ink and Intrigue

This game wasn‘t so bad that I wouldn’t recommend it, but it also didn’t give me the motivation to finish it . I recommend setting a 2-hour countdown while playing it, so you have the option of refunding.

so i cannot recommend this game, i just do not think it is very good. one moment we are in a fantastical world with dragons and then the next we are using grenade launchers? there is a big disconnect there and it left me feeling like half way through i was playing a different game. the romances also are not fleshed out at all, one moment we are strangers and then the next we are telling each other we love each other? it happened way too fast with no build up, i am not even sure if i will be able to finish this game as it is just not very good.

I would say, It's an okayish read. Once. The writing is good, but. Compared to Their Majesties' Pleasure - which I liked and played through several times - Ink and Intrigue isn't as good. Why? - the plot isn't as diverse - pairings are too few (as a female preferring males, I had just two partner options) - the storyline didn't signifigantly change with different partner or different motivations on the main character - the mature scenes were almost copies from one another even with different partner: what's the point of different characters if the scenes stay the same! - I didn't really want to be a character who wields magic, but mundane was no option - the two male characters you're able to romance are too similar: where's the bad guy! the underdog! drama! But yes. I enjoyed reading it. Once. I hope the author will write more with larger ambition. I will buy it again.

the way the romance was implemented is awful, which is wild because that is the main selling point. def one of the weaker entries of heart's choice. perhaps if you romance one of the guys it would be better but i very much doubt it.

This is the second book by Leia Talon in the Heart's Choice line of Interactive Fiction. It is set in the same fantasy world as her other game : "Their Majesties's Pleasure". If you like a good text based game with some "spicy romance" BOTH of these books are the BEST IN MY OPINION. Don't be fooled by my play time, I have played it through a bunch of times and I don't remember how long one read is. Still, I recommend Leia Talon's games and I hope she makes more.

A brilliant story, and incredibly well written - including the smut! I thoroughly enjoyed this one.
