For those who enjoyed the Fighting Fantasy series, this is essentially a digital version of the same thing. It most likely will only appeal to fans as its random nature and tough difficulty will put off those just looking to enjoy the story.

8.0
A splendidly written interactive fantasy story that, unlucky dice rolls aside, will keep you hooked until the very end
