I really liked this game! I haven't played a 'text and type' and 'choose your own adventure' game in decades!!! Obviously no graphics to comment on, but the storyline (well until I got killed! Going back for more later) is amazing. The writer explains how you need to type in what you want to do, needs to match a certain style, while it sounds silly, when you play, it makes sense. I really hope you will give this a go. As I said, I died and I don't think I was even quarter of the way in (I made a stupid choice). The game DOES give choices and at other times you need to type in what you want to do. It's definately for those of us who love and have always loved "choose your own adventure" style games. If you love those, you will love this!!

actually really quite good fun, i enjoyed the story so far and looking forward to more. there was just enough user input to keep you engaged but not enough to take your focus off of the story. however, as to be expected there are a few minor problems, a) the speed of the text can get a bit overwhelming when it's going on and on, so either to slow it down a touch or add a mini settings menu would be handy, b) very negligible thing but there's a couple of misspellings and such, c) only once or twice, i found it was a bit too unguided in the prompts you had to give or pretty pointlessly complicated choices (climbing the rock), also, not a clue if its difficult to do at all but to be able to scroll up in the terminal and see what had previously happened would be useful overall, really fun experience, 100% looking forward to more and definitely recommend giving it a chance

Games like Undertale that remember what you did

Undertale's own listing calls it the RPG where you don't have to destroy anyone. Games like Undertale that keep that idea: permanent choices, fights you can talk past, worlds that notice.

Most games like Slay the Spire copy the cards and lose the map. These keep the risky-or-safe choice, from a three-floor train to a deck made of poker hands.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
