The story of one mans extraordinarily catastrophic midlife crisis told from three distinct perspectives.6 found this helpful
Absolutely beautiful storytelling. Fantastic writing, wonderful narrative tapestry, such a satisfying gorgeous zooming-in to the Roadwarden world. Completely in love with what this is and how it does what it does. Thank you.2 found this helpful
I'd recommend this game as a bit of a companion piece to Roadwarden, for those that played it and just crave more of that world. It is just as delightfully charming, and while it is a lot more limited in scope, gameplay, and dialogue options, it's a fun little addition to that universe. For those that haven't played Roadwarden, I'd recommend that instead.1 found this helpful
A touching story. It was very different than roadwarden, with less gameplay and exploration and greater focus on the story and characters. The art was very good and i liked ludicia's story especially
I'm sorry, but this is not worth $10. I don't think I would have paid a dollar for this game, to be honest. It's a light novel that you can finish in 2 hours. The story's not terrible per say, but not riveting either. And there is barely any reason to replay. This feels like a college group project led by a very enthusiastic writing student but supported by a CS student who really can't be bothered to care. As a fan of Roadwarden, I'm very disappointed because this feels like a downgrade. This story made me realize I am actually not that interested in the setting itself. I'm rather worried what is happening with the studio that this is what they output, and not looking forward to whatever they are creating next.
There's actually not a lot of *game* here. It's really a visual novel, but that's no slight. The writing and characterization is excellent, just as with the original Roadwarden game from which this spawned. Not a ton of exposition to be had, but it really isn't necessary to enjoy the tale. There's a strong current of humanity throughout this journey and it's well worth your time.
